If you haven't seen it (and we've reported on it before), the belt is a big deal for the guys.
When Duren won it after the Richmond game, he came in like he had just won it in a wrestling match. Wore it in and came in and put it above their head.
Giannini gets these guys motivated...no doubt. The belt is really just the tip of the iceberg. He understands how to get "good guys" to buy in.
BTW, anyone see Aaric Murray's stat line today?
1-3 for 2 points, 2 blocks in (I believe) 7 minutes.

Just when I thought I couldn't like these guys more, they come out with a wrestling belt. Awesome.

That's a custom belt too. It's got the Explorer logo as a side plate. I'd have to get a better look at the front to see which belt it's modeled after.
(I'm a Championship belt nerd)

I love that thing- it's so awesome that they get pumped about it like that. Would love to see Rohan Brown take the title if Zack can't go on Wednesday

Also in that video, it really struck my how polished Ramon is getting with the press. I bet he's working with some people in the Ath Comm office to prepare for this summer and meeting with NBA Teams/ Media people.

I agree- he dominates those post game interviews when there's a few guys out there with him. Hopefully we are in the big dance and can use him there as well. Looking forward to watching ESPN news in march for live press conferences especially after pulling off an upset in round 1!!

Ugh- that's just awful.
It's a shame we really could yous a guy like Matt Looez right now.
If Zack can't play, would Doc get desperate enough to play Jermaine Davis in this pressure? I doubt it but if its your one shot at the dance....
