The vibes are immaculate right now in Queens.
St. John’s isn’t just winning, it’s winning bigger than it has in over two decades. The Johnnies aren’t just beating teams, they’re lapping them in some cases, like they did in overwhelming Georgetown Tuesday night. They can start slow and rally, as they have in coming from 15 points down on three occasions, or they can jump on an opponent’s neck and cruise, as well.
I’m here to tell you … it could get better.
I don’t believe we have seen this team’s best game. We don’t know how high the No. 15 Johnnies’ ceiling really is. Consider that in this seven-game winning streak, Deivon Smith, their point guard and best athlete, has missed three of those games, was out for the second half of another and was a non-factor in a fifth contest.
