Thanks Muggsy for the material. This sh1t will write itself tonight.
Ok, down to business, despite newsie's trolling, Jop will not be SOTG. I say TK.
Go WARRIORS!!!
Oh, ND sucks too.
Yup
Dead longhorns are the best longhorns.
Need a bigger smoker.
Stevie for SOTG. He's gonna lock down Hunter and prove Wojo recruited the right player.

Rafferty on the call again? We are doomed.
Vitally important to get off to a strong start.
Jop
Abmas raining 3s.
Stevie still king brick shot
Not the trade offs we are looking for
Sweet Jesus Jop!
Somebody besides Stevie needs to get a rebound

Gotta get our fking act together. NOW!
Jop not starting well
Yay a foul on Jop
If hes gonna keep shooting like a guy in adaptive basketball might as well just have him in foul trouble
At least Stevie does little things in between his inept O
Kam great D
Get Oso involved!
Ok sit Stevie for that shot. Jesus what stupid and selfish basketball
What the hell was that 3 attempt, Stevie!?

Walk on for all I care
That shot cannot be tolerated.
We all claim Shaka wants guys with green lights. That doesnt mean Stevie fast break off the dribble 3s with 0 guys down to rebound.
That was a bad shot even for Kam who at least can make it at any time.
The shooting is embarrassing. Wide open shots.
I love 3's that go in. At least I think that's what I remember
Its bizarre because we only lost Omax a decent 3 pt shooter.
But I just dont know if we are going to turn this shooting around ever. These are WIDE OPEN. Looks that we will not stop missing.
1-9 from distance.
Kolek can't pass up an open 3 for a Sean Jones 3.

I think the issue is Sean is 2/21 from 3 and cant hit a shot with no one within 50 feet from him.
He cant live off that UCLA shot all year. Hes launching bricks with no one in his zip code
I'm ok with Raf not mentioning Wisconsin the rest of this game
D looks good aside from taking 3 entire possessions to realize Abmas is the guy we need to guard.
SJ is also a nightmare right now.
Son of a b.. they are athletic

At this point oso might as well start letting em fly. Surely he could hit 1 or 2 out of 20
Our half court offense is a total disaster right now. Teams will just sag and sag and sag if we can't shoot or are afraid to shoot. Had Oso even touched the ball?
Sean Jones does not have it offensivly. He started fine at the begining of the year againist cupcakes. But he probably needs to be the 8th or 9th man.

Very disjointed - a lot of one on one stuff right now.
I'm usually optimistic but it's difficult to be as bad as Sean and Stevie have been from deep.
I say we start giving more run to Norman and Lowery. Less for SJ and Stevie(when his D isnt needed).
We cant have two guys who literally cannot shoot a basketball and 1 of them being 5'8 and throwing it to the other team for break aways due to no respect on his shot.

Who was Oso passing to?
Oso not even looking to score.
Ok 4/17 is bad enough
But D is keeping us in it. so how about we stop throwing the ball right to them for fast breaks to ignitate their offense?
Have we seen this lineup yet?
Quote from: Carl on December 06, 2023, 07:22:00 PM

no. But it is better than the las lineup for me.
Stevie for Sean is a plus.
Chase!
Nice half for him so far. Aggressive. Just dont pick up another foul
Absolutely brutal shooting.
There is the good Stevie
Absolutely punked him with the D
Stevie has to finish that.
Let's go now!
D has been outstanding. The big run will come...
Cheap foul from Ross.
Dumb foul Ross

Damn his over aggressive fouling is an issue
I have reached the point of having to make sure the remote isn't within reach because it will become a projectile soon. And it's a tie game.
Times have changed
Quote from: MuggsyB on December 06, 2023, 07:25:58 PM
Cheap foul from Ross.
He's gotta stop with the reaching.
Man, we reach too much.
Chase has to learn how to stay on the floor.
Texas looks quicker so far
Maybe that triple gets Kam going.
Weve only got like 5 fouls. But at least 4 of them have been stupid as heck.
Gotta stop reaching.
2 fouls on Shedrick is big. Time for Oso to wake up from his 1.5 game slumber.
Shame because Chase was contributing
Quote from: Fred Garvin on December 06, 2023, 07:27:48 PM

I could not disagree with this more. They've had barely any dribble penetration unless we miss a rotation.
GET
OSO
INVOLVED
IMMEDIATELY
Why does he look lifeless? WTF.
Bad shooting and bad fouls.
At least we look like the more energetic team tonight.
Great energy so far in this game. Need some shots to drop!
I'd like to see a barrage from us.
Kam is forcing in the paint today.
Jop!!!!
Give me so much more of that!
LFG!!!
That's better.
Huge board by Oso
LEts goooooo
Heck of a little run. Keep the foot on the gas.
Doing a much better job on the defensive glass so far.
Our offense looks better when the shots drop
Quote from: MUEng92 on December 06, 2023, 07:13:17 PM
I love 3's that go in. At least I think that's what I remember
Yep, I love when 3's go in
I'm convinced Joe would shoot 50% from 3 if they were truly open looks. The problem is they are open when he gets the ball and his release takes Soooooo long that he ends up altering his release. When his release is smooth and confident they seem to fall
Stop mentioning the rodents Rafferty!
Two atrocious turns from Oso. Why is he playing 35 feet from the rim?
Goaltend!!
Jesus Kam go up hard.
Immediately handing them a run right back.
Get consistent boys

Put Stevie back in.
Goaltend and next trip down Kam gets pushed out of bounds while the ref has the best view of all 19000 people in the building with no call
Playing undisciplined right now,some terrible shot selection
well, the good vibes are quickly gone
We got a game tonight.
Do college teams not set off ball screens anymore or use the pick n roll?
This team fights back, gets a 9 pt lead, and hands it back in seconds. So frustrating
Is it just me but does Tyler not seem as effective at getting guys easy shots this season?
Also, what's with all the sets that have him off the ball?
Only thing I can think of is a wrinkle by Shaka to conserve him for the long haul
Isn't the guy's name Abmas? Why are they pronouncing is Asmus?

They're sagging and no one can shoot right now.
Travel??
Refs have decided to swallow the whistle for Texas lately on anything.
Wow....Jop.
The ball went off Tx too. Bad stretch for the stripes and the blues
Get up 9 and go fully inept.

Sure but on a 3 on 1 he gets Kam the ball way too early...
Not hitting guys in their shooting pockets etc.
Great pass to Oso there
We haven't talked about it much but this team needs Kolek games with 10 assists.
He's stroking it tho!
Quote from: ATL MU Warrior on December 06, 2023, 07:40:22 PM

It's some normadic letter from his ancestors or something and it's pronounced like an S. So I've heard
TK injrect some life in these guys
Whew. Catch the ball Oso!
Great hustle TyKo lfg now we need some dimes
Man, I wish we got the and-ones other teams get against us.
TYKO!!!!!
Oh yeah, we have an all American!
How in the he'll are they up double digits?? Lol
Zaide has looked damn good so far
And now they go on a run.
Lowery has been noticeable on D.
Putting Lowery on Abmas has been a great move by Shaka.
Ross just dropped that great dime too.
Great D by our frosh from MO!
Called homie out at the perfect f'ing time.
That was lit
I think I saw a bead of sweat on Kolek's forehead. First of the season
COUNT THAT!!!
OMG TYLER STOP IT
all american play right there. hopefully we can keep it comfortable in the 2nd
This is the aggressive Tyler we needed on Saturday.
Wow...what individual badassery to close a choopy half from our A-A.

Ahem, Newsie.
Kam was already high stepping when the ball was crossing the FT line on Tyler's shot
Hope both teams are having fun
how much run does Zaide get in the 2nd? very effective on D.......
We are actually outrebounding someone. Who'd a thought?
Kam kept high stepping until after the buzzer too
Strong to start the second and let's put it away.

Hmm.. ok. Just seemed odd to me. Zaide's length seemed to bother him. Good move there.
Jop gonna get a lot of rest this half?
It's a testament to how good this team is, that we can really be kind of playing bad basketball and still be up 14 against the number 12 team in the country.
Quote from: Carl on December 06, 2023, 07:25:37 PM
D has been outstanding. The big run will come...
;)
Good call, we should listen to this guy
TK is a god.
Also, coulda sworn people were saying on other threads the reason Lowery doesnt play is his D is not ready.
This half says new narrative on that.
More Zaide please.
more freshmen less SJ.
Kol3k time.
How wrong they were. Lowery sure can play D!
Have to give credit to Zaide Lowery, he made the most of his minutes in the defensive end. Strong coverage of both Cunningham and Abmus at times.
I hate it when Jop drives.
TK to Kam
Thats the winning formula.
Oso and Jop need to get their heads out of their asses.
Catch the ball Oso!! And finish strong! Wake the F up.
I find it amazing that the only people in america who dont know Kolek is the best passer in the county...........are guys who wear the same jersey as TK
Hes had 3 balls that should be absolute beautiful dimes today and our guys have no clue its coming. Wild.
Oso being a main culprit is the most wild seeing as this is year 3 of them as a duo
Man, Oso could be averaging like 4 more PPG if he didn't have bricks for hands
Oso should have finished that one as well. Someone might want to help Tyler out offensively.

Ha, the ref seemed like he was trying to get away from Tyler talking during the FT
Kam's elite 2 pt % of the last 2 years is a taking a hit tonight
Hes burying the triples though.
Let's go now!! Stay tenacious!
I think that is the first moving screen foul I've seen called this season
Np dribble triple for Jop!!
BIG BEN!!!
Texas sucks piss jeez. Bring on the Irish
Yeah, we just gotta hope for a non Wisco/Sparty type early march match up.
We shot like trash for almost an entire half vs Texas and we are still boat racing them.
Gat mad Ben!! LET'S GO!!
Get it to 35!!
He just materialized in the corner...
That's my favorite announcer call so far this year
Didn't realize this was a buy game!!!
Good ole fashioned curb stomping of a t-15 team - love it
Ugh, Osa
Outrebounding them 31-23.
TyKo continues to make plays that stun me.

Only issue is Texas entered firmly as a Q2 team based off the metric that matters
And boy that aint gonna improve tonight.
Hopefully they clock some B12 teams soon.
No...I'm not wondering why they couldn't have play half this well a few days ago because I've already erased the last few days from my memory banks
Would be happy with Raftery and Benetti doing all of our games.
I thought Texas had some fight vs UCONN. Truth be told they desperately need Disu.

Oso with some wildcard passing tonight
Osa isn't ready for the nba
Ughhh. A few wild turns from Oso.
Was #2 drunk for his haircut or was his barber? Or both?
Heckuva home game for Tyrese Hunter, aina?
Keep the foot on the gas.
Hope crowd is louder then tv making it sound
At least that time when another player was blatantly unprepared for a TK delicisious dime
It lead to a wide open kick out for 3 and we got an extra point.
Tyler should literally have 26 and 10 assists minimum tonight.
Everyone feeling a little better tonight?
Love Kolek's aggressiveness. This is a signature performance. It was sickening seeing him passing up those threes against Wisconsin while they went under screens all game long.

That is how the game was designed to be played from 2:32 in first half until 11 minute mark in second half. In the last year we have seen three basketball clinics by MU and I hope all appreciate it a great gift to watch.
