If the pick and roll is either going to be a layup or an open three need to play some zone.

It seems like every pass Michigan makes is to an open man or someone who creates space to be open. Every MU pass goes to someone with a Michigan guy immediately closing, giving the MU guy no room to get a shot off.  We are that slow and they are quick.

14 turnovers, 11 field goals made.  Not a good ratio.  Believe 4 screen fouls and 3 offensive fouls.

Pick and rolls at first, then just like last year double team, kick out for open three.  Defensive strategy the same and sort of not working.

Rheinhardt had 3 points, 3 fouls and 3 turnovers.

MU only took like five outside shots, everything else was drives which were missed or altered by Michigan,s size.  Just abit perplexed about that.

Hope the size factor and lack of a big PF doesn't hurt team all year, because Heldt is just not ready.

Wojo will have nice discussion with the guys and maybe come out fighting a little better.

This looks a lot like last year.  1 pass and then drive to the hoop.  Lots of standing around on offense.  MU seems intimidated by Mich's size/length. 

The D is really bad.  Doubling, getting off balance or out of position to close on the 3's.  Mich knocking down open shots much like MU did vs Vandy.

The tough part is once the roster balances out between front and back court Fischer is gone.  Feel bad for him.  He's a good player.

Bad as we've been, Michigan really isn't all that impressive.
I'd argue that they have been this game.  Very, very active defense against out perimeter guys, excellent movement on offense.  While we may have been playing bad, I think it is because Michigan dictated it by their defense.

You don't think Michigan's perimeter defense has been good?  We don't only have three 3-pt attempts, one a heave at the end of the half, for no reason.

We outscored Vanderbilt by 25 in the second half. Michigan should be absolutely freaking terrified right now. Terrified. They didn't do near enough in the first half.

Lol I love your optimism but....

I think bigger teams with good guards yes.  Teams with a lot of bigs but poor perimeter defenders we will be fine.

Reinhardt needs to know when to stop shooting. 1-9 tonight and 1-6 from 3-point land. I'm not sure why he gets so much playing time.
Title: Re: Michigan Game Thread
Post by: brewcity77 on November 17, 2016, 10:14:09 PM
Still not that impressed with Michigan. They've had so many lucky shots bounce in, while Luke alone has had at least 8 points go in and out. Deserved win for them, but not convinced remotely they are the better team. They just had everything go right while we had everything go wrong.

Post by: muhoops1 on November 17, 2016, 10:15:33 PM
Jesus we had the ball 3X's to cut the lead to single digits and such poor decision making.  Reinhardt is just a volume guy.  He gets his points by taking an NBA volume of shots.  Dude has 15 shots tonight.  2 makes.  What's his eFG?

We're winning the 2nd half.  It's just that they clobbered the 1st half.

And I know it's not much of a victory. But usually if a team is so much better than you, they'll pull away the 2nd half.

Once we stopped turning the ball over in the second half things tightened up.  Gotta maintain control of the rock, and definitely can't give it up on unforced errors like traveling, illegal screens, and bad passes.  Gotta beat Pitt tomorrow, or the NCAAs become a distant pipe dream.
