Shaq still plays like a true freshman. After a couple bad turnovers at the start, Gib yanked him. Same for Brereton, but he was able to redeem himself after getting another chance. I hope Shaq knows his time will come. He will be vital to Hawaii’s success in the very near future, and we need him to be at his best.

Overall, awesome game. Can’t wait to watch us take on Clemson tomorrow.

It’s a long season , many games to play Shaq, 30 plus games,nothing like high school, dont worry, you’re still a freshman, lots of playing time to come this season , just be ready, Miah is a senior , just a short time left for him, take in what you can from Miah. He’s your teammate and friend. You guys are Ohana.

Even though I was physically present in The Stan last night, practically everyone in the seats below us were standing up (I’m 5’2″) which meant I wound up having to look at the last several minutes of the game on the overhead screen. However, I did a lot of shouting and waving an H-sign and a Big Green Hand. Wonder what it sounded like standing outside the building?

Gib Arnold has a good handle on his players. Who’s hot, who is not. Coach made the right decision by bringing in Miah. He ignited our offense with his passing and played stellar D, swiping a few and making their point work hard on the perimeter. Our team has a lot of moving parts with different roles. Jostin Thomas was super. What else can you say?
Great victory!

Ha ha! Last night was revenge for 2002 and a convincing win at that! Can see the guys’ growth Thursday night and last night! Thanks for this early Christmas present Gib and mens b-ball Warriors!

What is Shaq’s state of mind. I watched the replay and noticed that when Joston made the last shot all of the bench for the most part was fist pumping and jumping up and down (as expected).

While all of this was happening Shaq was still in his seat. When the game was over and Gib had the players shake hands and walk towards mid court, Shaq was slowly walking looking disengaged. As the rest of the team continued to celebrate by waving to the crowd and giving hi-fives, hand shakes and hugs, Shaq was the first player to walk towards the locker room.

I would hope someone like Joston who has been in the house, the dog house, and last night raised the roof, should know….play as a team. Win as a team. Know your role. Your time will come.

i was thinking that perhaps this will be hauns’ breakout night. he had been tentative in the first third of the season and this could be start of what we all thought or hoped that he would bring to the team.

we obviously need another shooter to improve our play.

miah is still rusty and once he takes a more offensive attitude we will start to gel and could wreak havoc for opponents.

i like the depth of bench.
