LEBRON JAMES GIFTS 'CAMO LEBRONS' TO OHIO STATE BASKETBALL ON EVE OF NAVY TILT

LeBron James, a renowned benefactor of the Ohio State men's basketball team, came through in the clutch once again Thursday afternoon. James gifted some white camouflage LeBron 10s to the team on the eve of its season opening tilt with Navy in Annapolis.

Those are some of the ugliest shoes I've ever seen. They look like someone with ankle problems wearing socks under white birks.

LeBron Soldier 10's in assorted styles going for 139.99 on Eastbay. Pick you up some, BayBuck.

Opening game at Navy on CBSSN right now. :popcorn:

Bucks trail 7-4 at the first of about a billion TV time outs this season.

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

2-5 from the FT line in the first 4 minutes. I get the feeling that is going to be an issue all season.

So far, a classic example of why you don't want to open against a really good team. Not impressive thus far.

It wouldn't be the first time, but I'm willing to give them a few more attempts before drawing any conclusions.

That's definitely fair. I'm just not expecting much in the way of improvement over last year.

Quite a battle going on with the Middies early in the second half, 35-35. I guess on a night where UConn lost at home to Wagner I shouldn't be too surprised, but I'm hoping to see something better the last 18 minutes.

Is Navy supposed to be any good this year? I have to say, I'm not seeing a lot of improvement from our guys, at least offensively. Bates-Diop is looking beastly though.

 

[OSU_Buckguy]

should probably reassess my assessment of the team.

 

[Systems_id]

Our D is looking much better than it did last year so far though.

MUCH better.

Half-court offense seems a bit meh.

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

Given up 12 offensive rebounds to an undersized Navy team. Not a particularly good sign.

It's a bit surprising that Jackson is getting all of these minutes down the stretch in lieu of Lyle.


Also, Kam Williams has been pretty good this evening.

Jackson already looks like a far better PG than anyone we had last year.
