When it went 7-0 I wanted a Timeout. It reminded me of the start of the MU-Stanford game when we were down 9-0.  Attack the zone boys

Come on Warriors!!

I don't know why Buycks always insists on taking a long 2.  It is so frustrating.

A bit of nerves.  They are playing decent D - outside of Triche.  Getting the ball into the middle with ease.  They will settle down.  It will be a game.  We are not getting steamrolled.

Does DJO have vaseline on his hands?

Butler has not been offensive and Buycks, well....

Jae needs to slam that crap home, not go up with a weak lay up that may or may not go in. Throw it home with some authority and get the team/crowd into it.

Anyone switch to Texas/Arizona?

Texas with 2 point lead and have a 5 second inbound violation.

Just like Pitt game for Texas.

Can't get ball inbounds and they lose.

Post by: PGsHeroes32 on March 20, 2011, 07:36:37 PM
Just looked at some stats(got off CBS and sometimes they are wrong but heres what i got)

We are up 3 while only shooting 37% to their 53%. Now hopefully our % continues to rise as it did late in half but dont expect theirs to drop much since this is about what they shot last time vs us.

We are out rebounding them by 4 which is very nice. Both teams are perfect from line, difference is we have 7 makes to their 1. Big advantage just like last game, gotta keep it up.

They have 1 more make from deep then us and 3 more turnovers.

They can do this.

Plus, we missed multiple shots in the paint after offensive rebounds. Crowder missed a layup.

I just hope we stop trying to make in close passes inside their zone because they are tough to catch and lead to turnovers.

Melo was fortunate to play as much as he had.  Should have had his 3rd as a T in the first few minutes of the game.

Guys - Our defense is really good tonight...great rotations...not giving much of anything to Cuse..takeaway the first 2 3's by Triche and everything has been hotly contested.  Rick Jackson has been a non-factor...

DJO playing inspired defense..Jimmy Butler seeing the passing lanes well.  Need Cadougan to be a little better stopping penetration...Fulce and Vander with some good rebounds and intensity..

We definitely look like the team that is playing harder.  I hope we can sustain for the next 20 minutes..

Best halftime interview of all time, he was asked what the difference was that allowed MU to come back. He stated that they started to play hard, dive on floor, get loose balls, etc. Then finished with the beauty contest line and did a walk off. It. Was. Awesome.

They're not fast or real quick in terms of their guards. They can't break us down off the dribble and neither could Xavier. No Johnny Flynn. That's where we have the big advantage in this game and had in the earlier matchup against 'Cuse. Gotta keep it going. If we don't go ice cold I like our chances in the 2nd half.

Best was when Barkley talked about VCU's dominance and how everyone should have expected it, followed by Pitino asking "then why did you pick Purdue?"

Good first half. A couple of solid runs, if we can keep breaking the zone like we did in the last 10 minutes we can win this game. GTST, boys.

That's basically what the Syracuse boards are saying...they think they have one of the dumbest teams in the NCAA.  Fans....we're all emotional.

This was my favorite..."I mean, are you watching this?  Our 4th yr PG has the IQ of a Mississippi doorknob."

I agree that many times fans are way too emotional, but they are right. Syracuse's stupidity is why MU is winning this game right now.

You can tell all the others hate having Barkley there. He really is an idiot and knows nothing. Pitino was rolling his eyes that whole halftime show...and calling it that is being generous.

His comments on the 5 second call discussion may have been the most bizarre I had seen.  Everyone else was bewildered - talking about replay?  He really seemed out of it, confused.

It is interesting when they talk about the officiating, the great lengths they go to to compliment the officials.  I thougth Pitino was trying to get on the giving end of Porcini's this afternoon.  Sir Charles started out with a long compliment as well.  I am guessing the NCAA had a talk with CBS about this before the tourney started.

Likely...then again it was part of the reason why UW-madison beat K-State last night with some of the Wildcats stupid play.  Sometimes it's about who plays smarter...hell, usually it's about who plays smarter.

I liked that first shot by Jimmy.  There are not going to be many easy shots in these games within the half court.  Jimmy needs to take us in and be aggressive.

I liked the aggressive attack by Blue.  He needed to use glass on that one, though.  I think originally he was thinking dunk - they have too many good shot blockers to get a dunk in that situation.

We have shown A LOT of toughness and balls this game..taking charges..something that was lacking a little bit earlier in the season..as many fans (not me) thought this team didn't play as hard as last year's team...which after seeing the effort against Xavier and now tonight...they were right...something was missing defensively..but they seem to have it going now..

Big defensive play by Buycks!  We were looking stagnant before that. 

Jimmy and DJO both have had easy baskets in the last few minutes.  It's going to come down to them so hopefully that settles them.

It's time for Jimmy and DJO to step up.  Work the ball and get the ball to our players.

Triche is an easier cover than Waiters..in all actuality..Triche is simply a solid guard..but not very explosive..easier to contain...

Very likely a blessing in disguise for Cuse..we've got to force the action and get to the line..
