LET'S
FREAKING
GO!!!!!!!
Ripped some massive morning bong hits. I'm ready
Which Scooper is the person commented on as arriving just on time and almost being late.
Travel! Let's Go Now!!
Heat check.
Ughhh. No reason whatsoever for that foul on OMax.
Went into the gameday chat for the first time in over a year. Guys should stay out of there lol
Kam Jones is a beast.
Man, this could be a fun afternoon if Kam goes off.
Kam STOFirst3Minutes
BAM. TyKo.
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
At this pace, first team to 110 points wins?
Gotta pay attention to Freemantle.
Kam is the best MUBB guard at using the glass since ???

Yes.
Things looking good. Our D definitely seems more disruptive to X than theirs does to us. Would be great if we could get a good game out of Joplin today. When O-Max goes off the floor seems we take an instant drop off. Looking forward to seeing some Sean Jones.
Can't let Xavier score

If we shut them out the rest of the way I like our chances.
For this game, this is a bad lineup on the floor.
Joplin come on dude
Well it was fun for a while
Cannot let Kunkel get that corner triple. The D right now needs to be more aggressive.
Wow. I think it's time to attack.
What's with the air balls? Bad sight lines?
WTH was that?
Breeding decided we weren't paying him enough attention
Defense optional sticks with the trend for 1st halves.
Can't have scoring droughts in the big East. Let's Gooo Marquette!
Important to refocus immediately. We lost our offensive flow.
They don't have the foot speed to stop us getting downhill. Gotta keep attacking

Quote from: Johnny B on January 15, 2023, 11:16:22 AM

Typical MU scoring drought. One point in almost four minutes. Too many threes, three of which were air balls. On pace for 35 three attempts if they keep it up.
They have overcome these droughts, but tough X team.
Freemantle with two fouls and don't take advantage. He may not play final 13 minutes.
Start the bus
Did they just say they called a charge on Gold before the break!?!?! What?
Wait a sec....offensive foul on that play by Gold?
Some games you can tell early if Joplin has it that night.
I'll just leave it at that.
Have to get those D-rebs. Killing us.
4 guys there and can't get the rebound
What! Should be our ball.
Feels like a moving screen could X's big man every play.
Oso needs to grab the boards.
Lol
Catch the freaking ball!! Fk.
Horrible job by Oso rebounding today. Cost him with 2 cheap fouls. Time for Gold and/or Jop to step up.
Oso needs to start pulling these drebs down
Our guards need to crash the boards more,can't stand around and wait for Oso.

Do not get why Shaka keeps going to Joplin. Gold had 2 good blocks and should have been the sub for Oso.
Again, CATCH THE BALL!!! Jop should have snagged that.

Yeah I don't know how anyone can watch Oso this game and criticize. He's our only meaningful big and he's been everywhere. Sure it would be nice if he had secured a couple of those, but this game is going at an insane pace and Oso is always dealing with someone bigger.
Quote from: MuggsyB on January 15, 2023, 11:29:44 AM

Muggs, little known fact, you are not required to post every single thought that comes into your head.
Kam with 10 points and 4 assists so far. Kolek with 10 points and 2 assists so far.
What a start for them.
Gonna need to get Kolek some rest..kid is playing his ass off and we will need him to have some freshness down the stretch.
Need Stevie, Prosper and Jop to help crash. A couple of moments they've gotten caught watching the boards
Do Marquette players realize that the other team is also trying to rebound the ball too.... go get it, they seem to want the ball to come to them...
Vitally important stretch here. Oso cannot get his 3rd in the 1st half but he may need to play to close.

OTOH, seems we need the starters to play about 38 minutes each to win this.
It will be interesting to see how much more OMax-centric we will be in the 2nd half. His athleticism should be causing more problems. In Shaka we trust!
I'm ok giving Boum 16-foot step backs
Attack this team every fking time down the floor!! Vengeance!! Medieval thrashing!!
Quote from: willie warrior on January 15, 2023, 11:35:15 AM
Thanks Capt. Obvious
Once more, the joke whooshes over wee willie's head
Game slowing down noticeably these last few minutes and some ugly shots. Tired legs.
Was that foul on O-Max?
Sure as hell forgot to block out and rebound so far.
Truly can't stand Kunkel
Driving to the hoop a lot can tire the legs but Kolek has been very successful doing it. Need to draw more fouls on x. Goo Marquette!
Just can't get that PnR without Oso on the floor

Good point too. I'm still on the Gold train for this game over Jop. Gold is much more athletic and his outside stroke has come around the past few games.

Kolek?
There's a conversation to be had about Kolek being the best College PG in the country.
He may not score consistently, though he can, but he just runs an offense like no one else. If he's getting his towards the rim he is just the best there is.
Jop got lost on a couple switches onto Boum, but all things considered, he's holding up ok. Really tough assignment
Quote from: TSmith34 on January 15, 2023, 11:39:06 AM

We can't bite on that pump fake.
Keys get Ben in a little bit
Glad to see both teams playing hard and having fun. It's what the college experience is all about
Xavier looks like a Wojo team on the defensive end
Hope no one tell X that Kolek always drives left
I think Gold will be a good player, but I don't see the optimism that he has key plays to make in big games yet.
Bshit call on Ross.
Kunkle is a penis
Kunkle's bad facial hair make him look like a detective that doesn't play by the rules
Very curious to bring Oso in on defense with 90 ticks left.
Oso back in.
If Kunkel flops one more time he'll need to transfer to Wisconsin.
Absolutely BS call on Chase.
WTF is Shaka thinking putting Oso in up 6 with 1:30 left..of course they are going to attack Oso.
Stupid move!

Ross was most definitely fouled on that drive.
Nice half. Need more involvement from OMax, Oso, Jones.
Ross should be at the line
Tyler is surgically carving up X's defense
I thought Chase was fouled there. Tremendous half for Kolek. Defensively we can't let Jones in particular casually go to the rim unimpeded.
Disappointed in Kolek's low assist numbers

I think that was what the refs were telling him after the TO, if you put your big with 2 fouls in again when you are up 6, with 1:30 left, we will call a foul out of principle for you being so stupid...
Or, to explain, don't touch your players when they are dribbling up the court.
Solid first half. Now it's time for Shaka's second half strategy. Let's win this one!
Time for some Shaka half-time adjustments and we put this away!
Oh crap, we're up 4 at the half.
Quote from: WarriorFan on January 15, 2023, 11:50:24 AM
Nice half. Need more involvement from OMax, Oso, Jones.
Kolek was amazing. Oso was soft.
We should probably be up 10-14 when you add up the missed D-rebs and loose balls. Kolek will need s breather at some point in the 2H.
Need to come out like we're down 4 instead of up 4. Good half, Xavier decided to make Tyler a scorer and Tyler said "okay, if that's what you really want." Need to keep attacking because this team can still score in buckets and they have the shot-makers even if they're 2/9 from three so far.
Come out strong, and better defense and more turnovers for x.
Solid first half. Now it's time for Shaka's second half strategy. Let's win this one!
To be up four is pretty good, without Oso for nine minutes, but Shaka basically gave X four points in last 1:30 by putting him in. Two layups, strange, strange move, even Rafferty said it. Why, who knows.....
MU slowed down with threes, 5 for 12, with FOUR airball shots. FOUR.
Two offensive rebounds to 11 by X, Nunge destroying them. Plus overall rebounding.
To be up with Oso sitting, four airballs, lack of rebounding, is quite outstanding. Miller going to make adjustments with Kolek driving to rim with left hand, and of course Freemantle will return.
Keep it up, and of course, those darn refs again.

100% correct. We should attack, and attack, and attack, and attack. Then we can open up the barrage from distance. Defensively I'd like to see a little more attention to detail. Thwart the easy dribble drive and maybe take a charge once in awhile. Box-out as well because we're getting abused on the glass.

We suck at rebounding. We lose those battles just about every time.
There's no reason Kam and even Mitchell can't attack the way Kolek has. Need more offense than just TK attacking the basket

Sometimes we simply do not grab the ball. Drives me nuts.
X is going to regress on 3s, where they're shooting 22%. Gotta be prepared for a run there, although they don't shoot a ton
X will switch from touch football to tackle. Kolek will get fouled 5 times by 3 players on each drive in the 2H. Miller counts on the home whistle.
MU needs 2nd half adjustments as well. X will shut down Kolek and continue to shut down OSO. OMax needs to be better in the half court and need more live ball turnovers.

You just can't help yourself, can you? Gotta say "we suck" about
something. At least you're not back to "factually" stating that we sucked for 10 years. You sound like a 12 year old boy living in an old man's body.
Strong first half, interesting to see how their defensive strategy will change with Freemantle back in, expecting them to pack the paint so need shooters to hit shots. Defensively need to be better on perimeter, breakdowns have happened when they've been able to drive to the paint. Gonna have to rebound more as a team as well, OMax Kam and Tyler need to help out rather than trying to leak out. Keep the pressure on and keep driving and I'll feel good about this one.
If it's close down the stretch we can't have one of our walkabout droughts.

You're not wrong here.
They seem to go right, right, right. Let's stop that.
I'd like to force a few more turns in the 2H.

The system. Shaka's doesn't mind it. Some will drop. Some won't.
Boum just broke Stevie's ankles.
Nobody aside from Kolek and a little of Kam has been good. Kolek is carrying and keeping them in this game. Need to start defending.

We'll need to be talking about how at least one of Jop, Stevie, or Ross had a really good second half to get a W. Kolek has been great so far but X won't let him go for 40.
should have been a shot clock violation.
Refs totally screwed that up.
Omax is sleep walking
Starting to swing to the home team.
Absolutely have to get that reb.
OSO and O-Max need to step it up..rough day for both of them
Pretty cool skill for Nunge that he's incapable of a loose ball foul at that size
Kolek and Kam vs Xavier.
Nobody else has any idea what's going on out there. Hesitant.
Not sharp mentally right now. We may need Jop to provide a spark.
Quote from: NickelDimer on January 15, 2023, 12:13:33 PM

I know the early 3s are okay in Shaka's system, but X has the horses to out-Shaka Shaka right now. Things are just moving a little too fast for OMax to find any kind of consistent role/groove right now. I'd like to see Shaka try to slow this down a touch and run some PnR with Omax and Kam to give Oso and Kolek a breath and try to get those guys more involved.

Lotta ballgame left.
Marquette could be 0-2 in Kolek 20+ point games this year if they don't pull this out.
Somebody needs to step up and help him out.

That was a big shot by Jop...and also made a nice pass to Oso for that bucket. So need good Jop tonight with O-Max having a rough game.
Fing Nunge who looks 40 gets away with 2 straight fouls and then gets the hometown call. Hate that dork.
I'll give Jop some props, good solid couple plays. Need to pick up the speed/intensity a tick

Not quick enough to the loose balls. The rebounding is always going to be a problem with this team. That's fine. But so many deflections we haven't been able to corral.
Another loose ball we should have snagged. Grab the fking basketball.
Defense you either need to be good at rebounding or good at scraping for the loose balls. We're neither today.
Get a GD rebound!

It's not about lack of hustle..sometimes the ball just doesn't bounce your way..been a lot that have bounced the way of Xavier.
Joplin should rarely, if ever, drive to the basket. Always looks so slow and has no explosiveness or elevation.
No one said this would be easy
Refs have been great.
Refs, refs, refs.....
They are not the ones getting pummeled on the boards, outhustled for loose balls, terrible interior basketball shooting and 1 for 6 from three in second half.

Agreed. The only other possible complaint would be pushes when we drive along the baseline, but those very often don't get called, so can't really pick a nit there.
We just are getting out worked on the boards and on loose balls. Also, not being as aggressive attacking the rim under control this half.
Ughhh. Relax Stevie.

Ross left him to defend paint drive, just a nice kick out to him. Like a dagger.
I'll say again the calls in the paint are pretty imbalanced. Nunge gets away with a lot
I just don't get Shaka's PT allocations this game. Takes Chase out after the steal, keeps Joplin on the floor. We really need Kam to got hot.
Kam for three here would be optimal.
Egregious no calls on Nunge throughout the game. He has like 15 fouls.
Fk.
What!!!???
You can't win with officiating like this.
Breeding gonna Breeding
LOL, the blaming the refs is hilarious.
Unfortunately, it's not at all amusing that Shaka insists on playing Joplin
Horrific game from jop
The opportunity is there. Take this game! Get a stop and find a way to close strong.
This game has OT written all over it
The fight of this team. Let's go!
Is X out of TO's?
Good patience from Oso there. Let's go now!

Good defense, good look. Damn
JFC. Mid range pull up over Oso and OMax misses a lay in.
Wow. Point blank. Ughhh.

You must lead a miserable life.
If you keep it close vs Shaka, it's money in the bank at the end.
close but no cigar
We'll get em in MKE
The missed 2-foot shot by Omax really hurts.
Going to come up short but to be in this game while not playing our best is promising
Kam really has disappeared this 2nd half..Boum stepped up.

NolongerWarriors finally able to waddle to the bathroom. It's his second bout of explosive diarrhea of the day.
We had our chances, but X was a little better. Our first shot defense was great I think, but couldn't complete the stop.
I wish we would have won, but I feel even better about MU finishing strong this year than before the game. This is a good team.

If Rocky wasn't a low key Shaka hater your ass should have been banned a long time ago. Shaka miss the no footer O-Max took? Any top 3 Big East team won on the road? You're just a prick. If you get joy out of going to a rivals message board and posting garbage...says a lot about your shitty life syndrome.

It's really tough to win when your opponent has all those o-rebs. However, the sequence with Boum hitting the J and then OMax missing the chippie really sucked.

Which would fine I think if you had two Osos. But the other Oso (OMax) plays like a guard, so you end up with Oso playing the 5, banging against a guy who has 3 inches and 30 lbs on him all game. When the first half has as many possessions as a Grinnell game, there's only so much he can do. You'd need to be able to throw waves at them, but we had the look of a traditional team (trying to win the game from the 1 and the 5 without meaningful sub minutes at those positions) playing the Shaka system.
Still encouraged. All things considered they looked great.

I was banned because I didn't relent on the fact that Derrick Wilson had zero business playing 30+ minutes for Buzz and Wojo, and the Wojo/Derrick defenders continually barked back. The criticism was almost exclusively directed toward the coaches..not Derrick personally.
Barbs get exchanged..both ways. You and the 5-10 others who were Wojo/Derrick defenders consistently took shots at me. I returned some fire. But, since your positions were largely in alignment with Rocky, I got banned. Multiple times.
It takes two to tango and end of the day I was right about Buzz being off his game his last year(which explains why he played Derrick 30+ and benched Deonte Burton for the last 7 minutes during the Big East tournament while Deonte was tearing up Xavier), and that something was going on with him (disdain for Larry Williams) Was right about Derrick, and right about Wojo.
It was unfortunate that you and other prolific posters here were clueless about how impossible it was to win playing Derrick Wilson 33 minutes a game. And again, not his fault - that's on Buzz and Wojo.

I felt the same way about Buzz and thought he was completely checked out at the end of the year. I remember thinking the same thing during the Xavier game when he took Burton out "for his poor defense." Thought it was ridiculous then and always wanted to see a replay of that game to see if there is any merit behind it, though I never found one. Sure seemed that way on first watch but I miss a lot things in the heat of the moment.

It was relay odd when he pulled Burton. I was frustrated with Buzz that whole year. And I loved the guy. But, given Buzz doesn't have an agent, and he signed the VaTech contract 3 days after the season ended - one which negotiated - there's no doubt in my mind he was in discussions at least for a good part of that last season and essentially mentally checked out.

I am not a fan of Sultan, but if I am hoping to read an intelligent MU basketball post I am searching out Fluff over Rocky every day of the week. There are guys on here that really do not know ball and anyone that does can spot them in a minute.
Why ban NoLonger? He gets to post every 2-3 weeks and it is harder for him to post. Sadly, I would not call him the worst poster on scoop. NoLonger is a clown, but at least he does not play a role on scoop other than being clown.

Don't forget they have an "underboard" yet still hang around here.
I hang around because I love MU basketball and talking ball with fellow MU fans. I can only speak for myself, but I can differentiate my feelings about scoopers on a personal basis and on a MU basketball basis.
Ironically, when I was overly negative in years past and I battled with several, or more, posters and I never took it personally. Shooter, AtlWarrior and others ripped me hard and it never bothered me. Sitting here today, I enjoy seeing their posts.
I still struggle on why fellow alums would flat out dislike posters. I have guys that are not my favorites, but I would have a cocktail pregame and talk MU ball with anyone on here. Anyone that spends time on here has a least one thing in common with me, MU basketball.
Truthfully, what the fxxk do I care if every poster wants to hate on the meat eaters. Imo, I think some on here are missing the boat on why we are on scoop. Nothing would make me happier than giving a high five to any scoop nemesis after a big one.

I am secure enough to know what my weaknesses. An example, I should not be a mod on board focusing on Pakistani Cricket and that is why I have chosen not to do so. I am fine admitting there are things I am capable of doing and things I should avoid doing.

I rarely take things personally here. The voices in my head disagree, why should I expect the voices on scoop to be in perfect harmony? With a few exceptions, I believe that every poster wants MU to succeed. I had my doubts a few years ago.
For me, scoop is entertainment. I enjoy the mocking of dumb takes. Sure, there are excesses and dead horses. Welcome to society.
I, too, would enjoy a diet Pepsi and a laugh with most scoopers.
Rico
I thought it was a great game to watch and wish we had won. I thought they had 30% chance going into the game and thought they needed to have a decent lead most of the way to get the win. Got the fast start, battled hard and came up short. At this moment I would think they have 75% chance in the rematch.

I love jabbing, mocking and talking shxt all day long. It probably is one of my best skills in real life, not the internet.
My post was more targeting flat out dislike or disrespect to other posters. "Knowing ball" is an obvious jab at me and I think it is funny. That said, I think there posters that cross the line.

Speaking of that, great game today and time to regroup. Tough place to win and they had a real chance late. Omax makes that shot 90% of the time. That miss was a ball Buster.

I have to tell you, you're 100% on this one.
Any Scoopers at Cintas with me today? I met a lot of great MU fans today. Parents, students, young and old alums.

My post was more targeting flat out dislike or disrespect to other posters. "Knowing ball" is an obvious jab at me and I think it is funny. That said, I think there posters that cross the line. Again, I really do not give a fxxk if TSmith thinks I am an pretty boy or bias thinks I should quit drinking.
I agree, it is pretty funny that a group has suddenly anointed themselves as the Know Ball gang. Because if someone disagrees with, then they can quickly be dismissed as Don't Know Ball.
Buy hey, at least unlike your fellow Know Baller, you haven't suggested trading the league MVP right before he leads the team to the Championship.
I once met Lonzo Ball after a bears game whe. he was walking his dog by the stadium. So you could say I know Ball.
This thread is great.
The sanctimonious smugness that emanates from many of the posters here is always amusing.
Marquette was 1-12 from 3 in the 2nd Half

My daughter was at the game, yeah but, she was cheering for Xavier. And she's not a Scooper.......

Finally certified!
Usually skip out on the game threads. Just went back a few pages here. There's some high quality entertainment I missed out on.

Welcome to the club. Well deserved and long overdue. I should have known the potential before Wojo got the nod to coach MU.

Which Scooper is the person commented on as arriving just on time and almost being late.
Yes
