Trifecta tonight. 15 fouls to throw at their bigs.
Sonoran salsa for the opener. Plus Chic made the long haul to get here. WE GOT THIS!
I hear Macura is a little boy too. The one cheer Ridents got right.
Warriors by 5. Sam for SOTG.
GO WARRIORS!!!!!

Give Glow some props, too. He did most of the driving.
But yeah! Destroy those Musketeers!
Looking forward to opening the Big East season with a solid win tonight. The team has been building toward this game. Hopefully, the crowd will be loud.
Is Butler this bad?
Hate to disappoint you cynics, but it's 20 minutes before tipoff and the entire lower bowl in the student section is completely full.

Maybe I'm blind but I didn't see Froling on the court for pregame warmups. Is he playing?

I noticed during the National Anthem that Ike carries a gold rosary.
Yep foxsportsgo
Fs2
It's on FS2
Not a good start
Wow this is bad
Predicting a Macura Rowsey fight.
Still got bad Markus
He's gotta get it going quick
This is more fun
Every foul on us pretty much
2 on Rowsey
Literally a foul on us anytime there's contact
Someone needs to go straight for that ginger's knees.
Ill take the foul on that breakaway.
When did X get to 15??
Markus killing it on his drives
His 3 shot is baaaad right now tho
When did we get to 19 after that crap start?

I don't remember anything after Gates 3 which put them to 13 and espn has them at 13 too
But the scoreboard has had them at 15 for like 4 min

I think they gave Xavier a free bucket. They we're at 10. Then made a 3. Then hasn't scored again, but have 15
They messed up the scoring on the Jones three point play. They didn't add it for a long time. Score is right.
Cain is a brutally bad shooter.
Heldt needs to make those or grab pine
The days of him missing bunnies vs good teams has to end

No way, unless he learns how to shoot.
Markus is an absolute train wreck right now on anything other then a floating drive.
His dribbling, passing and jumper are just sloppy.
A well time Rowsey pump fake. Needed that

Jeez another sloppy TO
We will win this game if we cut the insane TOs
Also if San is the "worse" brother
We're making a final 4 soon.

Agreed. But some of Markus sloppy is him just tripping on fast breaks.
He's so good. But he's gotta stay in control
Is Elliott that good?
Froling brings a different dimension to the game. He is more athletic than Heldt and has better court sense. I am not sure he is the starter, but he is making a case tonight.
We gotta start hitting threes. Yikes.

His hands have been a little clumsy
But he could be a big key here soon as he gets in rhythm
How are we the only team in the nation without a home court/ref advantage? And it isn't just this year. It's been for as long as I can remember
Gonna need to stop fouling
X makes free throws and we will have no players

It's ridiculous
We are so much smaller then teams too you'd think that by default we'd get some gifts
Rowsey!!!
Once again, I feel like Marquette is missing that power forward . . . The other pieces are there.
Had a big chance to snag momentum there but we threw like 4 straight bezerko passes and forced Rowsey to finally just chuck a shot
Reading this thread I would think we were either getting blown out, or losing to Eastern Illinois again. Instead we're down 1 to the #6 team in the nation. Boys are playing well tonight
listening to homer and mac for a bit, hardly hear the crowd behind them. almost as if they are broadcasting from a big screen away from court or something

It's like the Purdue game, where MU can hang for a while but the defense is so bad and X is so much better coached that they'll end up pulling away.

Defense hasn't been that bad outside the excessive fouling(many on offense)
It's mostly the TOs and some dumb shots.
I think if we square it away at half we got this.

I hate both Georgetown and Butler for that stupid double OT that cost me seeing the first 14 min of tonight's game. I hope we sweep those bastards.

Defense hasn't been that bad with exception of Heldt who was abused by Jones and O,Mara. More Theo please.
Pretty up tempo game, hoping X doesn't put 100, but MU hanging in there.
Some bad calls with the flopping, but Howard's two fouls were legit.
Just adjust to their 1-3-1 zone and MU has chance.
Hope Howard can find his shot in the 2nd half, Hauser hopefully gets some looks. Basically we need to hit lots o 3s
What's everyone drinking? Daisy Cutter here.
We got this. Let's go boys.

I havent figured out why MU doesnt have anyone at the FT line on offense. You alwats beat a zone by putting someone in the middle..Id have Sam be there..1. Because he's smart 2. He'll make the correct pass 3. Because he can launch 15 fters all night and Id take that any day.

Heldt has zero points and rebounds.

Being able to have Howard and Rowdy on the court at the same time should help with the 1 3 1. One of them shooting from the corner is much better than Cain or Elliott

Every post I've said is accurate.
Again, boost the IQ and/or get a backbone.
Saying Markus has horrible TOs is insightful whether pointing out facts hurts your brittle feelings or not
I bet Markus and Wojo say the same "negativity" after the game
Some weak officiating (come on, it's a Warrior website). That call on Howard was epicly bad.
Anime seems like the weakest link tonight.

If I'm negative then so is any player/coach/ announcer associated with sports
Pointing out poor play is actually believe it or not a form of analysis.
Don't like it? Ignore it. It's simple stuff
But news flash...bad plays happen.
Do I suddenly go quiet when we make good plays? No. I point them out too.
Jesus it's simple fu cking stuff
How did some of you people survive to this point?
On a positive note
We got this
And now a negative note
Rowsey damn that is moronic
Never mind
Harry

Jamal is going to be a beast.
Keep leaving him open. Great coaching by Mack, eh?
They hav our team well scouted except Cain. that is how we can win
Cain will hopefully be what most people hoped JJJ would be
This guy is niiiiiiice
Geez, I like Jamal's game.
Have I said that enough?
We got this.
Keep Greg Elliot on Bluitt
I might literally hate JP Macura. Even Rowsey doesnt do some of the whiny crap he does. Maybe a little but that flop was absurd.

But can't be even pushing like that.
It is a joke he didn't get Td for his end of half meltdown though.
Man Xavier kids are dumb. That X commercial has a student using a broom on grass.
Wow, Cain looking clutch in the corner. HF rebounding and keeping things alive. A long line up of HF, Heldt, and Cain on the press. Shoot, leave Cain skinny and athletic.

That 3 by sam woulda been huge
Elliot with nice board
That blueitt shot wow
Oh Rowsey....
Am I negative if I point out that was another terrible Markus TO?
Now 4 on Rowsey is not good
Geezus these refs are killing me tonight. So inconsistent. At least call the BS both ways.
Felt bad about feeling bad when Markus came back in, then a quick TO. Hope he can turn it around.
Mack sounded a little negative there
But his coaching was praised
Phew. Not a 4th. Big.
Not a foul on Rowsey
Thank god
At this point Markus just needs to see it go in
Cain wow
I assume other fan bases hate Rowsey like I loathe Macura.
We'll need Marcus to win this. Good start.
That was siiiiiiick Markus

HAuser was wide open in the corner a simple kick out was the right play there markus
No sugarcoating it...Howard has been pretty awful at times tonight.
Markus hurting now, like 6 for 20.
Macura is hated, but he can do a lot of stuff on court. That block of Howard was big turnaround.

If Markus doesn't play like crap and they don't get hosed on that block/foul call with 2 mins left who knows what happens in this one. Still an encouraging game.
According to Vander Blue Man if you say this is on Markus you are an imbecile

I mean he can get mad it's just true. Some really bad plays on his part that he generally doesn't have.

I'm not VBMG, but I think it was the idea that the loss was 100% on Markus. His play is one of the if not the main factor for the loss, but there is plenty of blame to go around.

If you say "If Markus played better we had a good shot to win the game" that's one thing. That is in no way what you do and it certainly isn't "analysis".

You're right and I usually do. Sometimes it is a bit much.

Correct.

yes, some plays here and there everywhere can help.
But Markus was the one who consistently had brutal shot/TO after another leading to run outs.
I'm confident that he himself will take the blame too. Guy gets it, he's probably gonna be our all time leading scorer. But he was horrendous tonight

That's an "if"
He shots us out of the game. He was the only truly horrid player tonight. Heldt was bad but he went straight to the pine at least.
Huge fan of Markus. He was just bad tonight. No other way to put it. He will bounce back. I'm sure nobody feels worse than he does.
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.

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?
Quote from: mayfairskatingrink on December 27, 2017, 08:10:53 PM
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.
Troll gotta troll

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.
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.
