Let's go now!! This is our time!! Attack, Attack, Attack!!. Take advantage of this opportunity and play with confidence and no hesitation.
Brando has no idea how to pronounce Kuath.

Got it on the bucket
Kalky can be a prob.. We need to be better stopping the ball.
Ughh. Cheap foul from Oso.
Sweet Jesus. Atrocious min for Oso.
They are moving and sharing the ball way better than we are right now.
Stick Oso on the pine
Morsell still sleeping ?
Oso daydreaming
Alteady getting jobbed by refs, Oso and Lewis stinking it up.
MU making a habit out of not getting back on defense.
Get Elliot and oso out. Both giving up nothing.
Are we tired? C'mon boys, lots of time!
Quote from: CTWarrior on March 10, 2022, 02:04:06 PM

Much better. And awful shot selection from MU. Very disappointing start.
Feels like everyone has figured out our offense and there's been no adjustments. Every halfcourt possession is painful
Whole team is sleeping
Neeed to hit some shots
If this is the offense we are going to run might as well just head home.
Oso not paying attention.
Justin just chucking with no interest in attacking.
Everyone else aside from TK looking sloppy and weak with the ball.
Just brutal offensively.
Great start. Creighton has like 6 guys so. Of course we jack up threes and jumpers.
Not ready to play again?
hey, let's just keep shooting low percentage jumpers, shall we?
looking like McDermott still owns Smart. Foul diffntial piling up early.
Getting outplayed.
Pathetic start. WTH?
WTF was that??
They may not 30 today - has any of the last 3 attempts even hit the rim?
It's time to get our act together. NOW.
For now the 5,765th time this year
KUR cannot catch and does not pay attnetion to passes. So stop zipping them in to him.
Its on the passes because its well known at this point he wont catch it.
Stay aggressive Kolek!!
Pitiful performance. McDermott deciding to trade Shaka in for a new model.
Great D from Stevie
Edit think that was Joplin
That was a big shot by TK. Maybe that gets us on track.
The D and rebounding(knock on wood here) have mostly been very good.
Our terrible offense has helped their offense. Half court set D has done its job
We need to attack more. Use the shot fake and change speeds. Play with power, force, and intelligence. Also, move the freaking rock. Get Lewis the ball in the mid-post.
TV slow mo of Kolek's shot release. Perfect example of why he's not a consistent outside shooter. He comes at it from the side with his hand. Oh well, glad he hit that last one. Gotta keep shooting open takes.

Yes. But our transition D has been abysmal to put it mildly
Grab the ball!!
What the hell was that pass by Jones?
Great subs by Shaka for that out of bounds, got the TO
Crazy flopping.
As short handed as Creighton is, we should be pressing after every make.
Hope 5 isn't hurt, that looked no bueno. Also, stop throwing cross court passes on O
Jesus. 6 TOs already.
6 horrible turns. Rec league stuff.
Quote from: willie warrior on March 10, 2022, 02:16:54 PM

Shaka needs to yell at them and tell them to quit turning it over
Home cooking refs for Crfeighton.
WTF Greg. WTF
Dumb foul by GE. Self-inflicted mistakes absolutely killing us.
OUr ball handling relative to recent past MU teams is much better.
But we may be the worst team in the history of basketball at passing in our own front court.
Its like we intentionally throw "pick 6 balls" right to the defender.
We have had 3 different guys do it already today and Daryl who does it like3 times a game himself hasnt even done it yet.
Its such a simple thing
If Greg isn't bringing anything on offense he can't be in there.

Perhaps we should just drive.
Here we go again. Stupid decisions. Stupid turnovers. Stupid fouls.
Seriously!!?? WTF are we doing offensively?

Not
Ready

Playing terribly and keeping it close, just gotta complete a pass on O and make a shot. We got this!

Our offense is enfuriating

The diagonal cross court pass is an interesting strategy.
MU isn't coached well.
They have regressed as the season wore on.
More turnovers than field goals. Beautiful.

That guy was poking Lewis all the way to the basket. Ref finally called the foul.
Press them and get to the FT line! They don't have their PG. Unleash Stevie, Omax and Morsell on their guards.
Elliott should never be playing.
Refs aren't buying Kaluma's flops.
This is it right here. Shaka must adjust. Massive 8 minutes for him
Get Lewis the ball in the mid-post. When he faces attack if it's there or move the freaking basketball when the double comes. Our offense is horrific right now.
boy we look like doodoo right now.
get it together guys!
Is that 9 turns,?
Hawkins has hit two fluke ass shots.
First one he basically did a running shotput shot where he bank spiked it in. Then great D by TK and he hits a long two turn around.
Quote from: NolongerWarriors on March 10, 2022, 02:22:26 PM

When we attack use the shot fake. Drives me nuts.
Kam is feeling it!
Kur is bad
WTF!! Smh on that lob pass. Why??
Kur Can't Kuath The Ball
Kur is awful today.
Kur and Oso. Woof.
Too many dumb passes, especially to both of them.
Half of their points are on our turnovers.
Team of butter fingers, bad passes, and missed bunnies.... Ugh.
Kur with the ball in his hands is pretty scary
As soon as get something going on offense, we forget to rebound.
We cannot Give Them the ball. Geez, take care of the ball! Too many t/os.
Let's get our heads into game
The seniors will be easy for MU to replace at least.
We need to knock off the sloppy passes.
It's running everything else.
9 turnovers. JFC
I treat a missed reb or a bad shot as a turnover as well. Our self-inflicted mistakes are infuriating. Total lack of focus and poise.
Quote from: TSmith34 on March 10, 2022, 02:34:09 PM
9 turnovers. JFC
Creighton is one of the worst at forcing turnovers nationally, too.
Never know. Shaka might shock them with 480V during halftime.
Morsell is way off. Needs an interior hoop.
The announcers just mentioned it ...
Shaka is pretty " soft " and " nice " to the players. Maybe they need to get their A$$es chewed out.
Oso and Kur are AWFUL
Daryl can stop shooting anytime now. Hes launching total bricks.
As I say that he finally attacks and guess what........scores.
Wait what happened there?
Ball don't lie
Quote from: MuggsyB on March 10, 2022, 02:37:52 PM

Joplin was touching the ball when he was out of bounds
Let's go now!! Thatta boy O-Max.
Not sure we could play much worse in a half and yet here we are..
Wow, I can't beleive how bad we play against McCreighton
We're way better when the bigs sit.
Omg. Another are you kidding me/unconscionable turnover. 10 I repeat 10.
10 turnovers..8 of which are unforced.
I think we have had a 4th grade style TO every single time weve had a chance to tie or take the lead.
Like every single time.
Incredible we are down 1.
Value the effing ball!
There have been other games where Morsell was terrible in one half only to come back on fire. Hope this is one of those because he's been putrid.
10 turnovers and we're down 3 that's promising. Defense has been good. Justin Lewis gotta show up 2nd half. Scouts are watching
glad to see JL at the 5 . Our bigs were in pretty ineffectual
That half was horrible. Hope they can turn it around.
Wow. ..another can't grab the ball situation. Infuriating. I don't think we can play worse so that's one positive.
Turnovers in our DNA now?
Well this is arguably the worst half of basketball we've played all season and we're only down 3..
Morsell was just brutal. Zero points on 1 for 7 shooting and terrible turnover with 36 seconds left. Hurt......
10 turnovers
Freemantle on offensive boards
MU did nothing without Kaluma sitting out last nine minutes.

He was docked two points for the turnovers I assume
Hey. Look at the brightside.
At this rate we'll be reeeeeeally well rested for next weekend.
6 offensive rebounds yielded and 10 turnovers...against an undermanned Creighton team. Have to think we will get it turned around in the second half as we can't play much worse. Lose this game and its Wojo-esque bad.

I just dont understand Daryl.
Hes a 5th year senior and has the lowest bball IQ of anyone on the team. If hes not sloppy with the ball hes taking a horrendous off balance fade away 20 footer.
I don't know what's worse, the lazy passes to open CU players or the gift-wrapped off. rebounds we give them.
Gotta get serious this half, guys.
Most...terrible...defensive rebounding...ever
Bigs with a stellar 0 points, 4 turnovers, and 4 fouls.
2nd half will be interesting , seeing that McDermott said they are going to start going inside to Kalkbrennr ! ! ! 8-)

No, we're out. You said so last week
Our offense was frankly a disaster for 20 mins. There's no way to sugarcoat it with the 10 turns being the biggest issue but we're not getting great shots, nor are we moving the basketball. Yes, we're only down 3 and playing like garbage, but it's not like Creighton is shredding the nets
I would consider going with Lewis at the 5. We're getting nothing from Kur or Oso. Value the ball, value possessions, and exercise patience. Way too many forced jumpers by MU.
We keep the turnovers down and we have this
Well that was just a horrible half all around.
Thankfully Creighton wasn't much better.

Offense is pathetic. Ok Shaka should understand CU will be good defending the Pick and Roll so HAVE SOMETHING ELSE you can go to. Right now we're playing like we've never practiced together.
The only reason we're still in it is CU shooting so poorly. But the are otherwise totally outplayed us.

Wojo was canned because we repeatedly got embarrassed on the big stage. We now have a coach who has been there and done it before, so it's time to get it done in this half.

Wow....Kur.
My prediction of a 7 or 8 seed might have been generous.
We simply have no chance if Daryl and Justin are not gonna attack.
Justin takes another long J.
Creighton feeds Kalkbrenner.
Not surprising which team scored.
Kur is embarrassingly bad at basketball.
WOW ...
Kur is SOFT

GET KUR OFF THE COURT.
Seriously. Just play Jop or something.

Dude, it's sarcasm.
Not sure we have the horses. Too small, half step behind, don't see any real plays being run. Hoping for the best.
Maybe they should just keep dishing to O-Max.
Hard to watch. GE with another rough game.
Please stop playing Greg
We really badly need Goose to come back and say Greg isnt a shooter.
Cause he literally can't hit sh it anymore.
Doesnt matter who our coach is. We dont show up at the Garden most years.
Creighton came to play.
Marquette came to enjoy New York City.
Someone explain why GE plays at all
Brando's love affair with Hawkins is nauseating.
Kur is unplayable.
No more lobs to either Kur or Oso please.
Greg fell down again. Shocking.
This is every bit as bad as a Wojo coached team
Elliott needs to be benched..
Do ELLIOTs legs not work ??
He goes flopping, tripping, falling to the floor EVERY time he dribbles
GE for o max wasn't it
Pot O-Max back in
Elliott falls down while dribbling. What else is new.
Greg and Kur just need to play as little as possible today.
Kur does not even take up space
No.More.Greg
F' Creighton - they ain't that good. We just suck playing them.
Quote from: NickelDimer on March 10, 2022, 03:10:50 PM

Wondered why that substitution was made..Greg hasn't been hitting for 6 weeks..why he's ahead of Kam is baffling.
Why did omax immediately go to the bench after his and1?
Put the blame on Shaka for putting Greg back in immediately after Omax made a nice play.

Finish the game with J Lewis, O-Max, Joplin, Morsell and Cam I say.
Bring in Stevie and Kam. Shake it up on O and D. Need a spark. GE and Kur should be pinned to the pine.
I wouldn't play with our 5's. I know Lewis has 2 but you push Kalky away from the basket and hard double.
Our reactions are pathetic
Halfcourt offense is bad.
Creighton hitting everything.
2H DePaul vibes
At this point ... MU should just forfeit their games in the BET every year ...
Does NOT matter which coach/ players ... they are NEVER ready to play.
They embarrass themselves every year.
The BET jinx. We play so terrible there every year. Still time to turn it around, but I have my doubts.
D up the final 15 minutes, someone gets hot, and we got this.
Hey, I'm trying to be optimistic!
Ugly, really ugly. Desperately need some offense from Kam right now.
Absolutely and inexcusably atrocious. MU has more talent and is deeper than Creighton and it is soooooo difficult to beat a team 3 times.
Creighton deserves MUs bid.
McDermott owns Shaka and should have his face tattooed to Shakas chest.
Relax Brando on Hawkins.
And scoopers were so glad they got to play Creighton!
Wheres our offense?,
What is the last game we played well? How long has it been?
Would be a lowkey silver lining if they fell to a 10 seed. Not that they'll win another game this year but would be more fun for a few days imagining the run
Wow. No ball move,emt no sharing. Can't get anywhere near their basket.
Welp.
Guess it's time for some spring lawn maintenance
Their help defense is horrific.
This is really embarrassing. We peaked so bad in January.
Kolek launching out of rhym shots again.

POS effort
We're getting completely outplayed and it's honestly embarrassing. I put in three 12 hour days to watch this!! Unreal how horrible we look.

If you're going to do as many stupid things on the basketball court as we do, and turn in a completely lackluster performance, no place like a sold out Madison Square Garden and a national television audience to do it in front of
34% from the field. This is just really bad offense
They obviously care, but this roster is not that good. With turnovers and no offensive rebounds, they have to shoot 60% to have a chance. Go home, rest up, and sit around for a week.

Coming back is gonna be impossible since that requires getting stops and scores in bunches.
We might be able to do 1 of the two but not both.
And even the stops are not coming anymore because Creighton figured out all they gotta do is pound paint.

I think we've got a run in us. Probably not enough to win but enough to make it a game. Of course, I don't have a logical reason to believe this based on what I've watched so far.
We're gonna need Morsell to step up..2 of 9 not gonna het it done. Need some Kam 3's as well.
Anybody next week will be a bad matchup.
If Morsell doesn't play well, we're mediocre. he's the guy
Can we start over again?
My goodness. No idea what JLew was doing there.
This team was hot garbage today
This is flat out embarrassing. They are getting schooled by former D-2 players. 😳
JLew just getting punked on that rebound.
Seriously just forfeit if this is what its going to be.
We just let Hawkins get another rebound
Then on D justin slaps at the guy twice for the sole purpuse of giving them an extra point.
Now Daryl shoots one from Milwaukee.

I do think that is a high probability. That's the way it goes when you're playing good teams. The alternative is the NIT.
Might as well go out scoring in the 50's - wouldn't that be special?
I think we have a run in us, yet. But it better come soon.
Plenty of time but we just make too many mistakes and are soft on the interior.
Give up offensive rebound. unnatural carnal knowledge up on defense. Foul to give them an and-1.

Kur OR Oso ??
Literally the same thing every sginle game.
Show any sign of life with a run and immediately give up a run right back.
Daryl just misses the lay up to cut it to 4. Creighton has scored 4 times in a row since. While we keep lauching bricks.
The team just doesnt have the runs anymore. Its a 8 game sample size.
At least we'll have fresh legs for the NCAA Tourney.
We need Rico to tell us we are all idiots for having issues with this performance.
Five games in a row away from home that the team has been absolutely terrible. Zero adjustments from Shaka.
But the team just isn't very good. Still exceeded expectations but disappointing.

We gonna get rolled
The fact of the matter is we have played a piss poor game and are getting our ass whipped. Monumentally disappointing and our mistakes are infuriating.
I expect a 10 seed but this is not the same team we saw in January.

Why do you post here? So obvious you're not even a fan. Just go away.
I'm contemplating shutting this turd off and getting on with the afternoon. Really thought we'd make a run at the BET title and get our momentum back but seems the team peaked in January and we don't have a counterpunch.

Biffed 0 footer.
Give up offensive rebound.
Launch awful 3.
Launch another awful 3.
Game over
Yup. Had it to 6 with the ball. Then started chucking up very bad threes. Not even close. But that's Shaka's offensive game plan. Hasn't worked well lately.
Shame because that was the 7-0 run MU made to make it close.

Just block him. Life so much better that way.

Already off here. Gonna enjoy rest of day. Not worth wasting time on that crapshow
The season has been a positive surprise but very disappointing to see Shaka's lack of adjustments down the stretch these last stretch of games. Don't know ow how to feel about the future right now
I'll be that guy. There is a reason we lost to Creighton twice this year, and will lose a third time.

Good little run here.

Greg doubling there is so dumb
Glad this team hasn't quit

When he doubled was terrible.
Not sure why he's on the floor.

Nope, just some of our "fans".
There's no point in playing Kur or Oso.

I don't get it with Elliott...get Kam or Stevie in his place.
Do we go with Kam to close?
Played pretty poorly for 9 segments and still have a shot. Could be worse.

It's like you've never been on Scoop before. This is what they do here. It's the most miserable group of "fans" you'll ever meet.
The good news is Joplin Stevie and Kam are going to be fun to watch next year

I mean, at least he plays defense and can hit shots. Better then Greg.
Gotta change my name.

I'm well aware.
GE!!!!
Let's go now!!
Keep playing
Keep fighting.
Man. So frustrating.
Oso can't rebound or score. Terrible defense also
Took it to Jop,oh well
LOL...what a kick in the balls...tease with the run and then just meltdown
Fitting that Greg blows the game not covering Hawkins
Huge plays by Creighton down the stretch.
Arby's..

Even the announcers can't believe MU just left the guy open for the 3.
Typical MU.
GE's non-defense killed the rally yet again. Gave up 5 straight points
This team is just uncanny going on runs to get close and then just shitting the bed with stupid plays.
Maybe we will see 5 guards for the tournament. can't hurt
I wish we would drop down to the 10 seed
Hello 10 seed.
Typical BET performance.
Well, looking forward to next week to see MU play again.
Why bother sending them to NYC at all? Every f-ing year.

I used to see some potential in Oso, but man is he terrible. No interest in catching the ball, rebounding the ball, or anything that would require some effort concentration. He is not the answer for next year or beyond. Can't see him being anything but a back up. If you can't catch a ball or hold on to a rebounded ball, how is that going to change. Hard work can't give you the hand/eye coordination you need to play at this level. So frustrating.
After Hawkins hit that three to go up five, Shaka should have called timeout
Elliott then drove and missed, another CU bucket, then another MU miss, another CU bucket to probably win game.
Timeout might have helped calm things down, MU played fast starting with that Elliott miss.
I hope for 10 blow hard!

No idea what Shaka is doing with Elliott over Kam or Stevie. Stevie was underutilized this game...substantially.
Woof. Team just was never very good. Overachieved for a month but it's been mostly meh other than that. Glad we'll be dancing. Bummed we don't have more hoops to watch this weekend. Hopefully a 10 seed. crap even an 11 would be good.
Oh well. My weekend is suddenly wide open.
0-3 vs Creighton. WTH?
Turns out even without their point guard, Creighton was a bad matchup. At least we'll hear our name on Sunday.
What Tournament
Well I'd rather be a 10 than an 8 or 9. That being said, our ceiling in the tourney is 1 win.
Disappointing loss but certainly not worth losing your mind over.

was ucla a 12-seed last year? Lavin says we're his dark horse final 4 team. Ha
Some have mentioned it, but a loss was probably the best thing for MU's seed.
Might not matter though, the gas tank on this year's squad might be empty.
Bad bad bad basketball. If we played the entire game with the urgency we showed late we win going away.

Interesting. I saw no urgency as well until it was way too late. Totally inexplicable.
Shaka badly needs to find a big bodied 5 in the portal that isn't a puss on the boards. Our rebounding all year has been pathetic. If Kur wasn't 7 foot he wouldn't even get minutes at the local ymca. He's terrible. I like Oso's upside but he's so soft in the paint.
I listened on radio,you could tell they sounded flat
Kalkbrenner and Feazell. 19 points and 10 rebounds
Kuath and Oso. 2 points and three rebounds
Except for one game in last ten, this has been abysmal and MU cannot overcome the deficit in the center position. I didn't even include turnovers, not grabbing the ball, etc.
Play Justin at the 5,what the hell

Huge issue especially when you consider they can't stretch the floor as well.

Exactly this. While JL would have given up size today he's much stronger than Oso and Kur. Creates more of a match up problem.
Well, we WERE Marquette for one glorious 6 game stretch.

That made me laugh.

Yea... play Lewis at the 5
Oso and Kur are AWFUL! They are soft, can't shoot ... can't rebound... don't box out. Other than that ...

I have said this like 5 games ago but honestly Lewis' interior D was bad as well. I think it's the right call but we are super soft inside both guarding man to man and with the help D and defensive glass as well.
Oso seems like a much better program fit for TFG

Kur and Oso are the weak links by a large margin. Just because they are tall doesn't mean they should split 40 minutes by default. Marquette's intensity on both ends of the floor doubles when they are both on the bench. I also think sitting them will cut the turnovers in half.
Justin would draw the 5 of the other team out as well
To the extent that any transfer big men watched the game today, that can't hurt. There are a lot of minutes to be had next year for multiple players in the front court.
It's hard to believe how this team has turned into hot garbage. Why they didn't press the whole game against a team that was without its point guard is beyond me.

But we're not going to be a 10.
Couldn't get TO their basket, was poor shooting the ball, and could not stop them from getting to our basket.
That's on everyone - players and coaches.

Thinking 9? I mean it's all so tight 7-10 ya never know. Sure hoping for a 10.
