You can probably catch it on the replays, though - if you get The Mtn...

Yeah, I sort of feel like that falls in the "lowlight" category.

Great quote by JayDee Luster:
“I tip my hat when guys are coming off the bench who aren’t really in the scouting report and they can play – guys who could start for any other team in the league.”

...stinking Mtn announcers...they were bad mouthing Franklin for the windmill dunk miss...
The beruin, UCLA announcer (who the hcal hires your enemy to broadcast your games??--only on the Mtn...) immediately starting talking and stating what was going on in Coach Fisher's mind...that's baloney...that Franklin should never have tried the windmill dunk...
I disagree. It was fun time. You have a chance to rest your starters, up 64-24...time for fun. Ain't nothing wrong with having fun. And more so, when you have all your work done.
Those two Mtn announcers were about the worst, second worst...why didn't they bring in an Aztec and a Whyoweme announcer? They have them available.
Great win, and a great attempt to windmill dunk. Franklin should do more of them.

Franklin likes to entertain when he gets his minutes, how few they may be.

If he makes that dunk it would have brought the house down and maybe made ESPN. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the point of sports to be 'entertaining' - especially when playing at home?

I have no problem with that dunk attempt. He can make it, and it would have been the best dunk in Aztec history.

You are up 30+ points. Stay classy and make the dunk on the fast break.
After being at the game I feel that Jamaal is going to be a liability in that he likes to shot the ball and not pass to a teammate that has a better shot.
But other than that I was at every game from 2004 until i graduated in 2007 and during the Slaughter/Heath years, i have not seen this much excitement at the games that were sold out. I had several people around my seats that were alumni seeing their first basketball game, sort of sad but at least they are showing up now. Hopefully we will have a good recruitment this year.

Did you see him hustle for every lose ball? Or fly through the air to try and get a rebound? Or play hard defense during mop-up time? The guy is giving it everything he has when we're up 30 with less than 3 minutes to go. IMHO, I happy about how he plays.

.
Well did you not see when Jamaal ran over Billy white for a rebound? or when he almost run over Kawhi? Just to name a few teammates. I all for playing hard but kid looked like he was on a rampage against his own team.

Hustle is one thing but say something happens and a player becomes injured due to an Aztec flying through the air? This is all I am saying. But from your comments your not understanding. No worries

No worries Seriously? You're worried that someone is going to get injured cause Jamaal is jumping for a rebound? Ok then, say that something falls from the rafters and injures a player because the fans are so loud it's shaking the arena? Should we not cheer just to be safe? Exactly. Dumb. But hey, no worries.

It was great to see twelve guys involved in the game.

After every offensive shot, Jamaal goes flying to the basket trying to get a slam-dunk put-back. And make no mistake. Getting a 'rebound' isn't his primary intention here. He's looking to score. Some people might call it 'hustle', others might call it 'showboating'. IMO, thee are probably times when he should 'go for it', but there also might be other times when it's best to just hang back.
