Stainbrook schooling Otule. The glue guy, Anderson just sniffed the glue on that last TO.

2 things about the NBE really suck:
- Jim Burr
- the same commercials over and over and over and...

They're toast. Sleepwalking through another road game.

Buzz played Jake with 2 fouls. Buzz played Dawson because Derrick got a T (and a 2nd foul) and appeared unfocused. When in Dawson stepped up and played well. Buzz went with the player at the moment that was giving MU the best chance to win (Dawson).

That doesn't make Dawson the best player to win in the 2nd half or any other game this season. But the reason he was playing wasn't simply because of the 2 fouls.

Dawson was 1-4 from the field with 1 assist, no rebounds or steals...while playing the majority of the half. Oh, and he didn't play defense.

But yeah, he "played well."

Terrible D by Ox there.

Thomas with a 2!!!!

The usual second half lack of urgency. Have we moved from discussing whether we make the NCAA to whether we make the NIT?

Markusquette · « **Reply #207 on:** January 09, 2014, 09:32:54 PM »

Looks like another game where Jake has to shoot us back into the game.

Guess we can't blame the bench players for bad defense...starters have been absolutely pathetic in the first four. Wouldn't be a game anymore if Jake hadn't managed a couple shots.

maybe he can pick another fight

Thomas playing great. This one is on Jamil Wilson I think. Just invisible.

Niv Berkowitz · « **Reply #211 on:** January 09, 2014, 09:33:54 PM »

Funny....announcers saying MU should run screens to get Jake open. Forgot what sh!ttard said said runnin plays like that by Buzz shoes how bad a coach he is.

TAMU, Knower of Ball · « **Reply #212 on:** January 09, 2014, 09:34:11 PM »

We can't keep losing the FT battle.

This is the worst defensive game that I have seen this season. But the offense looks a little better

Derrick has set the bar very low...that's why Dawson looks like he is playing well.

Burton needs to get under control! Love his potential but hes a bull in a china shop.

Yep. I've been critical of Jake, but he has been huge tonight. We need some leadership from Jamil. Does he even want the ball?

Texas Western · « **Reply #216 on:** January 09, 2014, 09:35:38 PM »

JJJ and Deonte in the game now...

Just telling it like it is. Ox has attitude he tried to start a fight...watch it on replay.

If you think Gardner was trying to start a fight you haven't seen many fights.

willie warrior · « **Reply #219 on:** January 09, 2014, 09:36:33 PM »

IN BUZZ WE TRUST. Otule gets his 3rd fould and Buzz takes Gardner out--what happens: Otule IMMEDIATELY gets his 4th foul. What a great decision Buzzo.

AZWarrior · « **Reply #220 on:** January 09, 2014, 09:36:57 PM »

I'm perplexed that we run an offense that features DeWil receiving the ball in the post.

Milwarriorkee · « **Reply #221 on:** January 09, 2014, 09:37:44 PM »

In all my years watching warrior basketball, I have never disliked a player more than Juan. Seems like a great kid and teammate, but I can't stand him as a player.

And Derrick in his 10 minutes has 2 fouls and is 0-3...his 2 assists come from passing the ball to Jake Thomas coming off screens...he has created absolutely nothing this game and provided next to nothing on offense.

I'm not a play Dawson instead of Derrick guy, but in the first half Buzz played Dawson to a large part because he was playing very well and to let D. Wilson know that attitude needs to be left at home.

Question: is Fischer with the team yet practicing?

GoldenWarrior11 · « **Reply #224 on:** January 09, 2014, 09:38:35 PM »

Thanks to Directv, I cannot see the game. Sounds like I'm not missing much.

Hopefully, this is the comment that jinxes Xavier.
