We need this one. Assuming the season continues and there's an NCAA tournament. Kam time?
Let's get this one.
I keep saying I see the potential
But right now Omax could be in the running for worst player in the conference that sees nightly minutes
KUR!!!!!
Did the announcer just say Oregon, Milwaukee?
I don't get that last three by Lewis.
Sonogo back, Morsell out. Not good.
Not much for defense being played by Marquette right now. I think we will see how important Morsell really is on that end with his absence tonight.
GE!! He brings good things to life!!
Kolek is dropping dimes!!!

Imagine if he was BE quality
A passing Kolek is a great Kolek
Quote from: MUEng92 on December 21, 2021, 08:23:56 PM
A passing Kolek is a great Kolek
Exactly what I came here to say
Kolek is playing very well.
Ah Yes, Jeffery Anderson is Reffing tonight ! ! ! UGH 8-)
Mitchell is a disaster
Stevie will get there. But he's just never poised or in control against high major teams
Mitchell with two unforced turns.
Mitchell is very much a freshman. But freshman always turn into sophomores...except this past year
The D is a problem. Fking Polley.
Kolek has been great. Lazy D on that and 1.
The O rebounds they are getting are making us pay
Amazing how UConn can play 12 minutes without fouling,

No complaints with officiating in this game so far but just saying we are at +11 minutes without an opponent foul again...
Surprised that wasn't offensive
Where's the crowd enthusiasm?? We seem catatonic.
That's a case of a defensive player getting in the way of an offensive players elbow
Oso and Omax are going to have to turn up their motors

Lol. Just thinking same thing. I saw at least 4 or 5 lol
OSA not having a good night. Bring back Kur
Really gotta stop with the awful TOs
Just handing UConn pts.
Otherwise offensively we look great when not tossing it away
I wish they would stop with the camera with the floor view !! ! 8-)
Gotta clean up the lazy turns.

Why will he get there?
You could tell Johnny Davis was going to be really good last year for WI even though he was a Freshman and inconsistent. Mitchell just looks panicked and overmatched against any decent competition.
I was just thinking about that 41 and 16 game Novak had vs UCONN.
BAM!! Big triple for TK.
1 foul in 13 mins for UCONN?
MU 7?
Morsell's absence could be a good thing. Other players will get more minutes and opportunities. They need to respond. And I see them going into the paint early. MU seems to play well early and fade (wilt) later in the game. Obviously I'm sitting here waiting for a big run with lots of layups and threes. That would be so much fun. Hand-clapping fun. One more note: I'm not going to rag on Kolek. He reminds me of me. When I was a kid I wanted to play college bb. and I would have looked like him. He has no trouble getting it up the court and he penetrates well and gets it out to the wings. These kids can't come in and be the GS Warriors over night. Hey, how come GS doesn't change their name to the Golden Eagles. OH, I remember now. They don't feel the need to.
Really? Donny M thought that was a "play-on"?
We've got absolutely no chance if UConn is gonna shoot like this. Along with the good amount of easy paint shots they are getting
UConn is hitting some pretty tough shots.
Gotta close the half strong.
So sick of Lewis just laying on the 3 point line,get into the paint!!
Is Coach Hurley drinking urine?
Count it. Let's go now!!
Martin is killing us.
Joplin says get out of the way I've got this
Can't be missing free throws
C'mon OMax, turn it up. Keep it up Joplin.
Quote from: PGsHeroes32 on December 21, 2021, 08:56:52 PM
Can't be missing free throws
Let's go now! Get.a hoop here.
Cheaters proof
FK. That hurt.
And a wide open 3 for UCONN to end the half
For a team that preaches defense, I have not been impressed there so far this year. Looks like the worst defense in the Conference (obviously) without Darryl.
This team has a shot to win, but they don't guard. Couple that with the large amount of TOs and it's a Big East death wish.
Always open shots against us!! Wide open!!
Dammit that hurts.
Woulda been great to go in down 3
Lobbying to have more jump balls during a game where the ref screwed up the only jump ball of the game twice. Okay.
I dont get why we're running a zone. Just weak.
Kolek saw him in the corner and waved and yelled for someone to guard him ! ! ! 8-)
Not gonna happen tonight, guys.
Mitchell has become unplayable. Question if he's capable of playing at this level
We're gonna need Jones or Elliott to mince the mesh from distance in the 2nd half. Kolek was superb in the first half.
Meh. Nova was down 8 and won going away.
(https://media.giphy.com/media/Q78vALJovSolHwAwRi/giphy.gif)
It's just ugly ...
They don't look good. They have marginal BE talent, their " press " is a joke. Don't guard well. Can't score.
Other than that it's fine
WTF???!! No way that's a foul on JLew.
Lewis hammered by two guys, no foul. Gets landed on and it's a foul
What happened to Kam?
The fouls have not been...even the last few trips
Stevie Mitchell is the same type of player as DJ Carton. He has a great upside, but right now he's a freshman turnip head. In high school he drove the ball relentlessly and dished it. He had an outside shot. He's not aggressive enough.
Ughhh. Unforced turns can't happen
I guess we do foul all the time, good grief
Tough foul calls. And too many unforced turnovers. Need to clean up our end and refs need to open their eyes and watch UConn a little. Even the announcers are saying wow

'nova has Jay. MU has Wojo II.
This team doesn't give up.
Every time we get to 3 they hit a dagger though
Just can't get stops.
Yeah they are just gonna keep scoring
They are scoring relentlessly
I think someone said this already but if UCONN is going to hit crap shots like that this games over
Keep in mind UCONN scored 53 total points vs Providence. Gotta D up.
Who is THIS Joplin?
Get a bucket after the t-o and we're in good shape. Increase the intensity and ferocity defensively. Find a way to get the crowd engaged.
Have to stop their paint points, but then they hit threes. UConn is tough. Our guys are fighting, but sometimes lazy on rebounds and osa should have drawn a charge - he did nothing but reach in. And we need to keep going inside
We are feeding the post much much more tonight and taking our time with the offensive sets
Nice to see a shift in that offensive system
Dribbling is a problem on this team
Lewis pushed out of bounds on the offensive rebound, no foul
We need Lewis to play with this aggressiveness on the offensive end consistently
One of our guards is going to have to make some shots.
Oso battling again
Keep working boys
Quote from: MuggsyB on December 21, 2021, 09:44:38 PM

Kolek, Kam and Greg one a piece should do it
I really like what Shaka is doing here on offense. These post ISO's and attacking has really kept MU in this game.
We're playing hard. Just need to drop a few outside shots. Excellent position to win this game.
Gonna be a FT parade.
I have a feeling Cole is going to finish with 22+ tonight
joplin could have shot it off the glass. wild left. ouch.
Big hoops from O-Max!!
Let's go now!!
OMAX
Had their chances
Spoke too soon
OMAX is getting it done ... at the moment
That would have been fun if Jones' three went in
Hate that transition three but Kam needs to make some of those.
Buckle up and earn your home court here. Coach this squad to a dub shaka
Hey- this is fun. Frustrating. But fun.
This team has some fight. Love to see it.
Man. We're right there. If we take good shots down the stretch and attack I like our chances. But one or two triples would also help. I get Elliott in the game to close.
Gritty effort. Like the fight in these guys. Nice to see a coach who doesn't have that deer in headlights look.
Oh...good grief. Let's call a touch foul 35 feet from the rim. Smh.
Cam stop fouling the 85% free throw shooter!
Hurley working the ref (Jeffry Anderson) and it pays off right away ! ! ! 8-)
Who was the ref glaring at on the foul call on Jones?
Quote from: MuggsyB on December 21, 2021, 09:56:24 PM

That was nothing more than a guy playing defense. Lame call.
I have a feeling cole is going to be at the line like a dozen times here down the stretch.
And he doesn't just stand on the sideline with his arms crossed. Like Wojo. Uggh. It will get turned around soon. Tonight is a step in the right direction.
Same amount of fouls for each team in game.
MU 13 for 17 with two front end misses
UConn 12 for 13
UConn making them
First to 69 wins?
Get Elliott on the floor.
3 turnovers right under the hoop
Bull$hit call! He was out of control
UConn with a 1000 and 2000 pt scorer tonight.
MU hanging in. That's promising.
That said, gotta have these at home if you hope to dance
Can't give them free points. I honestly think we get this one if we can go up 1.
Martin a 60% career FT shooter.
Box out.
And yes get Greg in

Absolutely. We really need this game.
OMG.
Unreal
Man, that dunk miss...
Kur...uurrrrrrr
Cam has had a bad game
Missed easy dunk...
Brick from 3 feet...
Game over.
Kur choked on that
Lol just awful execution from this team
make a dunk ugh.
Just not enough BE level talent on MU's roster
Oso just can't get out of his own way tonight
At the 2 minute mark again!!!
I thought defenders could jump straight up?
Ughh. Just a huge swing after two great chances. Very frustrating. Sad, sad, sad.
Kuath may have cost them the
( poss ) game w / missed DUNK !!!
It's all gone wrong
A lot of nice passes not getting rewarded tonight.
Heartbreaking minute, they will learn how to finish

Just can't go empty handed on three straight possessions there, especially with two bunnies and a good mid range look. Probably ballgame.
Just can't get over the hump.
frustatring L. i dont feel good about ncca chances.

Execution has been fine. Shot-making here at the end not so much.
Collapsed
Good lord
This is the kind of game you have to win to have any shot at the NCAA's.
Totally fell apart after the missed dunk
This one is disappointing.
Game ended when Kuath missed the dunk. Inexcusable
Execution down the stretch just really bad. Hope they learn form this, but no moral victories.
Ugh - this team seems to just collapse when they get a chance to tie or take a lead in what were tight games.
Marquette is quite adept at delivering "kills" on the offensive end.

Yah I disagree. Execution has been horrible. Do agree that this team is horrible at making shots tho.
We could just never get over the hump. It really hurts. It's not exactly execution
We missed a dunk, a lay-up, and a 8 footer.
same old Marquette, maybe one of this years this program will get out of the shitter

Still don't have a bad loss on the record. This team is going to play a ton of close games. The BE is very even and we lack experience. I think a tourney berth would be incredible this year and that's not a criticism on the coaching staff or the roster.
Bottom line, this is much more enjoyable to watch than the Wojo era aside from the two years Markus and Sam were in synch.

I see the point, but at some point you have to start having a little more expectations. maybe the bar being so low is realistic, but that is a scary thought for this program. every year the expectations sink lower and lower it seems.........
I like Smart but strongly disagree with his drip by drip thing. this program is going down the toilet, interest will continue to shrink. Gotta try and use that transfer market next off-season to try and bring in some guys to win now

Doesn't make one bit of difference.
A loss at home to a non Top 25 team is not a positive on the NCAA resume. Whether you want to admit it or not, this was an important game.

Nah, they got a stop on the next possession and still had a chance to tie or take the lead.
I wouldn't say this is a "bad loss" but you
must win at home when you have the opportunity. The little things just killed us at the under 5 min mark. It actually started with the cheap foul on Cole 36 feet from the hoop when we were down 64-63.
Non-top 25 is selective. - they were last week, they may be next week
They are 13 in the NET. Very good team, experience led. This will not be viewed as a bad loss.
You just want to any little bit of misinformation to denigrate Shaka.
