There might be 17k people here. It's really to bad we can't sell a game like this out.
Let's go boys!
I'm a season ticket holder in Milwaukee and I'm not there. unnatural carnal knowledge everything about 8pm games.
Just saw Vander 1/2 heartily go after two rebounds.Just seems like this team doesn't dive after loose balls like our teams of the last years have.Maybe it's just me.
Nice effort by Ox so far.
I hope I eat my words but butler has been a nonfactor.
There is really nothing like it when Djo gets hot.
Stupid foul!
DJO was hot and then attempted two horrible shots.
Too many UCONN offensive boards, that can't continue
Butler has been nonexistent, but so has Kemba
Otule is well, ...... bad
9-0 run by UCONN
Too late calling a timeout again. Buzz needs to hire an assistant and delegate timeout calling to him.
wow...19 pts in 7:00....then 2 in 4:00....time to get it going...
around the 5 minute mark left in the first half, some bad bad bad turnovers. worst part is that they aren't being committed on the fly or in fast pace, but just horrendous decisions.
Offense is stagnant right now. blue has terrible body language.

And nothing as ugly as when he tries to force things. Speaking of which, Buycks is playing poorly too.
DJO has got to let the game come to him.Butler loks lost again
Most out of sync the offense has been all year. Not even getting good looks.
it's another dunk contest by the other team. PLEASE FOUL someone just to prove that you can.
Butler throws it away on in bound pass after a time out. MU steal...
DJO goes one on five, throw up miss. MU steal....
Buycks throws away ball...... 3 point UCONN play.
This team is LAUGHABLE. Their collective bball IQ is nonexistent. I don't know what kind of scheme Buzz is trying to teach on defense, but it clearly is a systemic problem. Players look undisciplined and sloppy all around.
I think butler read my post.now hes mad and going to play!
still amazed that the mugging jc just took wasn't a foul.... ?-(
Let me guess. Some are going to say the reason we are down is cause the refs stink.
Small ball can only work if we are able to pressure the ball and box out. Right now, not doing either.

not even what I was getting at...marq plain sucked the last 10 minutes...don't even go there.
Vander bad on both ends. What exactly was that zone?
We again are getting our ass handed to us. Time to start thinking about next year?
I like Jimmy Butler and think he is a solid player. But too often it seems he looks to get fouled rather than to make baskets.
When he drives, he rarely ends up taking a shot that has more than the slimmest chance of going in.
Seems strange.

Actually, Willie, lets just shut the whole thing down like they were talking 25 years ago.
jimmy butler might be the softest SR. "team leader" that i have seen in a long time at MU.
UConn closed with a 22-10 run. Is this another meltdown?
Not liking what I am seeing here. Don't think too many others are either. The stink is starting to smell!
I'll say one thing, UCONN's freshmen (Lamb, Napier and Smith) are alot better than MU's freshman. Not even close.
Turnovers due to playing too fast and too many defenisve rebounds early-MU has had some bad luck with 3 or 4 In and Outs- I think our luck and defensive effort will turn the 2nd half. It will be interesting if UCONN goes to a zone when the Warriors make a run.
Sure as hell glad that DJO is on our team. He is only one scoring.
That three point foul he made infirst half was dumb, but it was an Academy Award flop by that guy!
DJO follows a bad play with a dumb play with a dunk
Awesome dunk by DJO--then Simpkins calls him darius Odom Johnson. He has done that before.
They compared him to Ben Gordon, then he plays like Ben Stiller and then back to Ben Gordon.
Blue doing what Blue does best.....

Missing no footers
Blue missed layup.......
Next possession, Crowder, missed layup......

Cannot be serious

blue is an offensive joke!
And for all of our whining.......we are tied.
We've stopped shooting threes and are concentrating on attacking the hoop. Results are much better.
Big shot by butler
35 for uconn looks like a player/coach
Hmmmm. Maybe Butler doesn't suck and can lead a little. Much better.

You may want to retract that.
We gotta keep attacking the basket here, don't settle for half open 3's
Butler read my post before he's pissed man!
Huge Brick by Blue. What the hell is he taking that shot for? He is sure fading this year.
Where is the guy that said he will be best Guard ever at MU?
Thats the old Jimmy Butler.
MU playing very well with DJO on bench. JC, DB, VB, Crowder and JFB.
Starting to make the layups, because there have been at least six misses.
Playing tough D and aggressive, smart offense. Keep that up for 11 more minutes and we will win.
im quite bummed out by how much of a non factor blue is on offense, plays good d for the most part,
but man i had expected a lot from him based on all the hype i heard before this year started,
he has zero jumpshot and cant finish................ freshman yeah, but still, wow bummer
We got the lead,lets start milking the clock
In case you haven't heard, JFB is the "X-Factor".....
Here we go again--5 point lead and we start milking the clock, and turn it over. ATTACK THE BASKET!!!!!!

you taking shots at him means he should go off soon.
anybody elses hd picture not the greatest tonight?
Yes, abit like Fulce's defense on last play.
Awesome dish by Jr. to Butler who was fouled.
Fulce was schooled by Oriaki--he won't be able to handle him down low.

The HD sucks here too.
UConn's freshmen are fearless. Damn
Tied up and getting down to crunch time!
Come on Marquette!
that last segment was sad

UConn's freshmen are fearless. Damn
And stupidly talented.
Its a shame our fans that aren't students that are at the game don't get more into it, they look like they are at a business lecture instead of a basketball game.
Lamb for UConn with his career high of 20 (previous high was 16). Lots of folks have career highs against MU.
If Blue is such a defensive stud, which I am not seeing, why is Lamb scoring at will off him?
i really hate our lack of play running , we have zero movement on offense, lets just swing it around and then pretend like we actually have a post game.
get a time out buzz,your getting out coached again!
Time to run some plays for DJO. Or play defense.
Game slipping away now....
DId Walker travel on that last pass? Seemed to move his pivot foot.
buzz is a non factor during games period........... or at least no positive factor
I think we've all seen this one before.... ugh

Dont even pretend they would call that, especially against him. Not a ref complaint, just saying
Can't wait to see the number of blocks for UConn. Unreal
4th quarter choke... can't stand to see this every game
we lose our shooting touch and don't move on D
DJO acting like he doesn't even want to be out there. This team is unwatchable at times.
it just seems that buzz has zero control over his players during these games, team ends up in pure chaos
Quote from: tower912 on January 25, 2011, 09:48:57 PM

Believe it or not 4, same as MU. I have counted at least 7 misses from in close, including two layups. Not blocks, misses.
MU now 5 for 15 from three.
And goodnight. Son of a bitch.
Flop by Walker, but hey, what ref wont call that
Junior should not be anywhere near the court with the game on the line. He cannot hit a free throw to save his life.
Hansbrough makes a dying 3 last game, now Walker.
MU has not scored in five minutes and DJO has not scored in 14 minutes.

Wasn't a flop. Buycks jumped into him.
Nine and a half minutes without a field goal?????
End the 13-0 run with a free throw and then don't get back on D. Pathetic.
Jae, Blue, DJO have all missed FT's late. Who should be in?
What the hell Junior? Seriously?
This team is mentally beaten down right now. The losses to Louisville and ND are hurting their psyche.

and UCONN. With a pissed off Syracuse team next.
What a pathetic performance. This team has no heart. They look dejected. Just another example of them going up and then giving it away. UCONN had wide open looks all day. Sorry, the team isn't gonna get over the hump this year.
Also, looking at UCONN's freshman talent is very discouraging. They are starting three frosh players, who are all having measurable impacts. While the marquee programs in the Beast are reloading MU is... doing what exactly?
At this point this team is what it is and it aint very good
Embarrassed.
Can't wait to see "but Team X can't guard Lamb either!" Having a lot in common with teams when they lose isn't a good thing.
This team is a bunch of PU$$IES, I don't care what Buzz says about having an edge and being tough, blah blah blah, it sure as hell doesn't show. The winner of close games is ultimately decided by one thing: TOUGHNESS, the tougher team will always win and we continue to prove time and time again that we are not.
Nobody can make free throws down the stretch, nobody can grab big rebounds when we gotta have them, nobody can make a big shot, nobody makes smart decisions in late-game situations, there is not a true leader on the team.
For Christ sake, MAN UP GUYS, PLAY FOR 40 MINUTES!!!!!
