Those of you watching on ESPN3 or ESPN, didn't the replay of the Knowles comeback completely piss you off?!?
unnatural carnal knowledge the Cards!
DESTROY THEM!
-
1 foul on Dieng already
-
Jacking up 3s already. Dumb foul on Jae. Do we know how to start good?
-
Crowder with the cheap reach in at half court on Siva after he picked him at the baseline.
Slow start for MU again. smh
-
1 on Crowder now. How would you guess that.
That over extending/double team defense gives up another wide open 3.
Here we go again, down early.
Let go boys....
-
Gardner with the hard earned two.
-
Dang, stuck at work. Got the game on record to watch when I get home. This is killin' me. Gotta stay away from this board!
Go Warriors!
-
Our offense is so bad. We started rebounding fine until that 3rd chance possession
About to get blown out.
-
Another slow start where we're going to have to claw back.
-
Oh boy, I am about to switch to General Hospital.........
They probably play better defense. Holy crap...
-
unnatural carnal knowledge unnatural carnal knowledge unnatural carnal knowledge.
jacking up shots to speed up the pace but nothing's going down.
no fouls drawing on offense.
D's playing WAY too hard. Over extending and the open man is there for UL.
Here goes UL's confidence....
-
Another Vanderbilt....
-
Why does buzz start junior AND blue. It doesn't work, to easy to defend.
-
We are a joke. Just jack up 3s repeatedly then allow the other team to shoot wide open all game.
Its already over. Vandy style.
-
Why oh why are we so streaky?
-
More not showing up for the first few minutes. How can a team be that bad consistently to open a game?
-
we lost this game already...
-
paint please
-
I may go back to the office and work. Ball movement is too slow, one and done. Defense is too slow to rotate.
-
Somebody has to be put at fault for this constant bullcrap
-
6:11 with only 2 points to their name.
It's so amazing/frustrating that Buzz has ice in his veins because I'm turning red and out $5.00 putting quarters in the swear jar.
-
Got a feeling they are going to break our hearts again. Too big, too athletic for us. Hope I'm wrong.
-
How do all these guys shoot so good against us? Can we ever ever come out smoking
-
Wow. 18-2 .. anyone want to debate whether MU starts slow?
-
A top-25 team does not go down by 16 points in the first 6 minutes of a game at home.
-
we are shooting .091 percent
-
Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....
-
This team is underachieving big time this year.
-
Chill guys, we're ranked #22.
-
Agreed. I thought the Vandy game was the worst game I had ever seen. This is enough to reconsider going in person (and paying).
-
Nice drawn up play off the TV TO.
now DJO with the 3.
-
They dont miss.
-
Maybe Buzz should reconsider the vigorous game day workout the team is famous for if they keep starting so slow in every game?
-
Hoping Louisville will go cold.
-
Paint Please...
-
Got some momentum then a dumb shot by Todd.
If we dont make UL turn it over like they are prone to do, we are screwed.
-
Hoping Louisville will go cold.
Or someone breaks a leg...
Or gets T'd up...
Seriously, though. They have shooters. Shooters just need a little confidence to get going.
Tough D and putting them in foul trouble stress them back into oblivion.
-
We're gonna need a lot of turkeys.
-
For being a transition oriented team we really suck when we push the ball
-
DJO is just finesse. He tries to make it look good. Like that Dieng block (which was impressive), come down with the ball and then draw the foul. He tried to make it look good in one move. Result? Block.
-
We're gonna need a lot of turkeys.
And alot of fouls on Russ Smith. He is doing an Ashton Gibbs here.
-
+1 on horrible transition game
-
Big hole in the middle,
-

You're post in game threads are absolutely awful. Exaggerate much? There are still 31 minutes to play and you've already said multiple times that the game is over/we're done...etc. Get a grip pal.
-
What happened to a focus on paint touches? Why all the bad shots early in a possession? Where is the senior leadership? We should get back in this but it is so frustrating to watch.
-
just bad today
-

senior leadership likes to shoot 3's
-
My god, they can't even pass the ball inbounds.
-

Yet everything ive said is right. We do lose the ball in transition all the time(or charge). Crowder just biffed another layup thankfully todd was there.
I am really impressed by our rebounding today though. How did that not go in for Davante?
-
send it in to big belly
-
This team is bipolar.
-
I sense a big game for Mayo.
-
Would be awesome to get this within five by halftime. Nice little comeback here.
JAM IT Jae.
-
2 on Dieng.
We NEED to capitalize.
-
2 on Dieng
-
Down to within 6. Mayo and J. Wilson need to be starting.
-
Wilson blooming with more minutes
-
Down to within 6. Mayo and J. Wilson need to be starting.
Agreed. Teams cant cheat as much. DJO with a dumb shot.
UL resorting to pushing on every rebound. Really impressed so far with our rebounding positioning
In the bonus.
-
Louisville giving us an opportunity. I'm so glad DJO took that off balance 3.
-
Yet everything ive said is right.
So the game is over with 28 to play and MU down 4?
-
No call on Dieng screws us. UL starting to move a little again.
-
DJO is the master of the dumb shot.
-
UL can run with us. Their guards can move. Forwards kinda as well.
But, we need to continue to be aggressive and draw fouls then make use of the Bonus.
-
So the game is over with 28 to play and MU down 4?
Until we prove we can actually comeback in games, and finish them yes.
Hence why I said this start was "vandy style"
They may surprise.
-
Haha i have doubts about Wilson finishing that dunk even if there wasn't a foul, but great to see the paint touch and aggression
-
8 fouls on UL, MU with 1.
Need to bring it to the hoop and really get UL in trouble. Dieng still in game with 2 (should be 3) and Buckles is now hurt. Stop the 3 jacking.
-
We always do something dumb(TO or shot) after a big defensive stop.
Team just needs to slow down.
-
DJO is trash as was that block call
-
Literally wtf DJO
we are the kings at trimming deficits, but fully completing is a different story
-
They jack a desperation 3 and get lucky rebound, wow.
Jamil misses dunk.
-
russ smith is takes awful shots but hits alot of them. also, dieng is KILLING us...
-
Dieng will give us headaches...and for a couple years to come.
-
I try not to like DG, but the guy just gets it done.
-
ADDG = All Day Davante Gardner
unnatural carnal knowledgeer's a beast. Not afraid to mix it up.
And re: Dieng, he's going pro. ;)
-

This may play to our advantage. Hes getting a Kobe mindset and the rest of team besides Chris Smith have no rhythmn.
As much as I bitch about our dumb shots thank god we havnt attempted a submarine over the basket shot......or w/e the hell that was by smith.
-
ADDG = All Day Davante Gardner
fracker's a beast. Not afraid to mix it up.
And re: Dieng, he's going pro. ;)
I agree. One more year though, he is like Mutumbo.
-
What a crap cal on JC, no contact, We need another scorer, they lock in on our scorers.
-
If the 3 no-calls on Dieng were whistled, this comeback would be a lead.... honestly. The comeback was stalled twice by his great timing, but he's hacking away on almost every other possession.
-
We be tied up doe.
-
Buzz needs to get DG a better fitting Jersey
-
I hate Jaes quick 3s.
DJO gives us the lead, good crowd right now.
-
Gardner is a facilitator.
-
Derrick Wilson in for some D. Bam. Turkey. MU defensive stoppers = turkey hunters.
-
Louisville getting a few looks but they've gone cold. Hope we can run this momentum into the second half.
-
Woulda been nice to make that lay up at the end but if we can have a 4th straight great second half we got this.
-
Gardner is a 15/10 kind of guy. I believe we are better now with him starting.
-
Wow. Finish half on a 32-12 run. Bipolar is right.
-
Man, Junior use your lefthand and that layup is in.
Great comeback, different game when Dieng is out.
Key to second half is getting Dieng with 3 fouls. Doesn't look like Buckles is returning and without Kuric, MU should be fine.
Make defense adjustments on Smiths, please.
DWill with great steal on Silva.
-
How did the refs miss that goaltend at the end of the half?!?!? Unreal
-
All Digger talked about was Loserville at half, no props to MU at all.
-
Great run but JC missed that lay up then missed a cutting Mayo to pass to a covered Crowder in the corner.
-
Digger nailed it. 2/3 zone adjustment brought us back. Smith's score 24 of their 30 points
-
Now, keep the throttle down and don't let up the intensity in the second half.
-
Gotta get more out of Jae. But if we get the ball in for some Jae and Davante bunnys to open up DJO and Todd we should be fine.
Just cant go into a cold/stupid drought.
-
I would like the first few plays to go into Davante and pick up that 3rd on Dieng
-
According the UL's boards Crowder should have anywhere from fouled out-15 fouls right now.
And they think Dieng got screwed. LOL.
-
All Digger talked about was Loserville at half, no props to MU at all.
What else is new.
-
Halftime killed the crowd. Now our offense is stagnant again.
-
DJO's dumb pull ups kill us
Good defense so far though
-
what is all the fuss about Dieng?
-
I know Gardner is not known for his defense, but we seem really weak down low when he is out of there.
-
10 becomes 2 in a hurry. Come on boys.
-
Give it DG, I like the growl, like the foul!
-
DG coming up big this half.
-
we gotta get it going again. UL is hitting shots.
-
Crowd looks kinda flat (or subdued) for such a tight game against a ranked Pitino coached team~~~ nice putback Gardner to kill the momentum
-

crowd was rocking during the 1st half comeback
-
The Artist paints another and 1! Even getting props from Elmore..he knows Ox not frok NY right? Haha
-
Jae gave ball to wrong guy and mayo biffs
-
game of too many runs, we gotta get consistent here to finish.
-
I dont understand the benching of Gardner? Dieng kills Wilson.
-
Took long enough to get a call. Mayo's got to find a way to finish or make the ref blow the whistle though, 3 straight misses.
-
Gotta finish strong here. Feed ox and get dieng out.
-
Crowder takes the entire first half to get going, but he's everywhere in the second.
-
why are we not using clock?
-
MU shot selection stinks right now... Smarter shots boys, please.
-
Feed the Ox.
-
C-YA!!
-
F U Len Elmore. Every chance to take a dig at MU.
-
Really want Vander to find his game and this team will be special.
-
After getting hosed on a few calls in the first half, last few have gone our way. Jae's charge & Dieng's 5th.
-
F U Len Elmore. Every chance to take a dig at MU.
missed the diss?
-
Need to keep pushing and wearing them down. Looserville doesn't go deep with their bench.
-
Really want Vander to find his game and this team will be special.
Agreed but his awful shooting makes him believe it or not the one i have most faith in during this type of game.....because we know hes not going to hoist a 3 with 30 secs on clock like DJO, Jae and Todd.
-
What a rebound by jamil.
There press is coming hard.
-
Crowder for SoG !!
-
Love the killer instinct. Pulling down boards, taking scoring opportunities behind the press, the 3 dagger-AFTER a quality paint touch.
-
34 minutes of strong basketball. Thats about as much as much as you can hope for. Except maybe Len Elmore not saying a word during those 34 minutes...
-

Pun intended? ;)
-
Dumb move by Jae to earn the T.
-

Ox no doubt. 3 second half 3 point plays to stop UL runs. Fouled out Dieng and owned him.
-
lovely.
Thank you fellas from making this wonderful day not a very bad migraine day.
-
dumb indeed, but still the stud, hands down. I don't care for the taunting myself, but heat of the moment, who knows what is being said out there. Sure Buzz will nip that in the bid.
-
Pun intended? ;)
Didn't see the gesture until after the T. At first I thought it was a lame T for goggles, but no need for that and T was warranted.
-
Dumb move by Jae to earn the T.
True...but a bunch of awesome moves in the 2nd half allows me to laugh it off. Jae don't play. Waka Flocka lookalike goes hard in the paint.
-
For those of us not able to see the game, what did Jae do to earn the T?
-

Made a throat slit gesture twice and said "It's over" or something like that....
-

Two throat slashing moves directed at the L'ville bench, accompanied by mouthing "it's over" to earn the T. Gotta say he seemed not just to be talking trash but to be genuinely cheesed about something.
-
Man, good thing the team didn't listen to Heyward Heroes, MViale, and a couple others. Turns out this game wasn't over after the first 5 minutes and they still played the last 35. Imagine that!!
-
Is Fab Melo going to start a "Jae Crowder is a punk" thread?

Didn't look like he directed to their bench to me but maybe i missed it.
-
A top-25 team does not go down by 16 points in the first 6 minutes of a game at home.
Or, maybe they do.
-

That would be Harrison.

You may have missed the last 2 Louisville games or epic fails...
-
If they had UNC on those baby blues, ESPN would have gushed what a trendous come back and not said a tweet about the Missouri game.
-

Going back to 2003, it has become dangerous for either team to have a huge lead (outside of when Diener was hurt).
-

There are probably 35 teams that are switchable from 10 to 45 in the rankings. On any given day these teams can look really good or nothing special.
-
exorcised some demons today, I'm thinking the "board comments" have not swung that hard from neg to pos
-
I am not a Jae Crowder fan, and I thought the throat slash was unnecessary, childish and stupid, but....
.....that dude was a BEAST today. Wow. Gardner played well, but Crowder was dominant. There was a ridiculous stretch where every big Marquette play involved Crowder at the center of it.
-

So are you saying you were right, the game was over after 5 minutes? It was a stupid, reactionary, and emotional overexaggeration to a terrible, terrible first 5 minutes. It's like some of you forget how often teams make a run in basketball (especially in MU games--on both sides).
-

Yeah, I wondered the same thing. Is he trying to support his argument that the game was over in the first five minutes?

I'm actually quite calm. It's you and some other posters who wrote absolutely ridiculous things on the first couple pages of this thread when things obviously weren't going MU's way that really need to learn how to simmer down and be a little more rational.

In case you guys lost track, I went back through the thread and HaywardsHeroes32 won going away in the negative post contest.
Seriously this thread should either be deleted because it is an embarrassment to our fanbase or pinned as an example of what the telltale signs of irrational idiotic "fan" syndrome are.

Calm? Rational? This is all about our very deep and, for many of us, very long emotional commitment to Marquette basketball. The time to calm down and think rationally is after the game. And even that isn't easy.
-

No, but I guess I just got to my tipping point. Way, way too many people jump off the deep end when MU has a bad stretch of play or drops a game or two. It just gets really annoying. Of course, that's the only time a lot of people post (not HeywardHeroes or Mviale though). Easy to complain when things are going great, but a lot harder to make positive posts when things are running smooth for some reason. Maybe people are a little spolied.
-
Calling people out by name about in-game thread is like taking pics in vegas. not cool

Don't post stupid sh*t and you won't get called out. Saying a game is over with 35 minutes left is stupid. I'm done with this thread.

Agree 100%. Lots of posters only show up when things are bad and are conspicuously absent when things are good. I think it was Sultan that called them "Eeyores" in a thread a while back. That's not a bad nickname for them, but I think Eeyore is way more upbeat and positive about his lot in life than are our negative friends.
-

What does that have to do with Louisville? ::)
-

Just read the thread after watching the game on DVR. Guess we haven't learned that the game is 40 minutes.
One other observation....at almost every opportunity, the cameras were on Pitino. Does he have a special deal with ESPN? It was kinda weird.
-

If you know what's going to be in the in-game threads and you know that you'll be annoyed, why read them? Or maybe put the constant complainers on mute with that handy ignore button.
