X game thread

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

What is wrong with Howard?  He's had two bad games in a row.  We could have won if he played better.

I think if you look at every player in the history of basketball, you will find stretches of at least two games where they were bad. From Jordan all the way down to Ners. Howard will be fine. Turnovers were ugly. Thought most of the missed threes were good shots that didn't go in. He biffed that layup near the end though, might have gotten in his own head on that one.

Howard was very good at times but he was stopped from getting a rhythm by the bench time. He made some nice fist half drives.

OK. Lemme say something here.  PGsHeroes32 (or Haywards...whatever his username has been) has posted obnoxious stuff in the game thread since I can remember.  Which might be yesterday....but...
 1) It's just what he does.  Especially when MU is losing, or the lead is slipping away.
 2) Does he go overboard many times?  Yes.
 3) Are we going to ban people because of their comments in game threads?  Rarely...to no.
 4) It's best to just not engage him if it bothers you.  Most people treat the game thread as write-only (do people actually read?)
 5) Even better, ignore him if that helps...

Mods - Might the "Ignore" button make a return?

Or can you please publish the current "Ignore" procedure?

Thanks in advance.

You should give me Mod powers on game day. Problem solved.

Cain is a brutally bad shooter.

Just wanted to bump this.

Just wanted to bump this.

Pardon me if my color blindness is especially bad but was skating rinks comment in teal?  Cheezus chriminey man, did he see Cain’s stats for the game?  He was 5/8 from the field, including 4/6 from 3 and 2/2 from the line.  Beginners luck I guess?

[Ellenson Guerrero]

No way, unless he learns how to shoot.

Does not appear Rink was joking. Here a follow up tweet about Cain. It's was in the first half.

Both of his responses came after my comment:

"Damn, I like Jamal’s game. He is gonna be outstanding in the next 3 years."

Jamal was getting rebounds, deflections and steals.  Then, he airmailed the rim on his first shot after my comment and thus the troll's comments.  The eye test alone says Jamal is going to be good, especially with experience and having a chance to bulk up in the years to come.

This.  He is a badger fan.

Bump

I agree with this analysis.

I think he may just be an MU hater.  Seems to me he watches alot of Marquette games, and Wisco was playing at the same time as us on Wednesday.  Strange he'd chose to watch Marquette over Wisconsin, even though they were playing a terrible opponent.

Who knows?  But in any event, he adds nothing to this board and should just be banned.
