Dixon getting NIL and social security. For the 17 years he has been there, he has been a match up issue. Interchangeable parts that haven't been able to put it together and keep it together.
Time to start a new home winning streak.
Giddyup.
Loss. We suck
Friday, so I'll start doing bong hits at noon, hopefully I can stay awake for the game
Quote from: Uncle Rico on January 24, 2025, 07:09:05 AMLoss. We suck
Bench the starters and play the subs. We just might unsuck.
Dixon is gonna score, but they have to make him as inefficient as possible. Would expect to see a lot of hard doubles on him, as he's been prone to coughing it up.
With 20 points tonight, Kam Jones would pass George Thompson for 4th on the all-time Marquette scoring list.
Eight years ago to the day.

I am in this photo....greatest game I've witnessed.
Nova's d is brutal (pawz). Don't commit tons of unforced errors, nova no make 19 treys, we goodie
Dixon - Dixout, You can't explain that!
Word from local militia leaders in the New People's Army in southern Philippines tell me Muggsy against expert advice has disappeared into the jungle carrying only a knife and a barrel of bathtub Tapuy strapped to his back in search of a (globally protected Cloud Leopard) Wildcat to tame.
I worry the drink has taken ahold of him to the point where he has considered violating the endangered species acts he holds so dear but local communications are spotty (like a leopard) at best.

That would be nice. MU is 0-4 ATS in the conference home games, and in most of them they haven't come close to covering.
I'd like to see then get off to a good start for a change instead of falling behind by 10-15 points in the first half.

Ya, the home games in Conference haven't been pretty.
Need em to punch Nova in the mouth from the opening tip like they did to PC. Give the home Golded Out crowd a reason to get loud early. Don't wait until the 2nd half 4U timeout like they did with X.
Dismiss and dismantle this team. It's time to get back to playing prime time/elite hoops. Especially on our home floor. And find a way to get out of the gates quickly. High energy, high intensity, focus, and zero mercy.

Can someone tell me a path to victory tonight? I don't see one.
Do everything muggsy says.
I honestly think the reason we've been in such a funk is cause Muggs hasn't sacrificed a manatee
We are so close to greatness

Well MU at least needs to sacrifice a lamb per Old Testament
I've felt like crap all day, barely leaving the couch. C'mon MU don't make this a fever dream
I think we cover tonight.
Simply due
Connor Onion?
Early paint action
Kam with another bizarre angled shot. But jop with a great one.
Getting in there early
Anyone have issues with video? I can hear sound, but not any video.
JC play defense and guard Fing Dixon
Thought Kams shot might be fully back.
Drilled the 1st 3. The 2nd missed but looked great. 3rd was another wtf.
Brick city on our 3s

I fine too.
love these Friday. Night games 🥳🍺
Wow Royce got ball in corner and didn't shoot.
Got it a second time and then nailed it.
Chucker Royce is back. JFC
Let's go now.
Rebounding really well early. Nova doesn't crash hard but still good to see.
They got 1 3 off a oboard. But we have cleaned up everything else I think
Had Kam let go of the ball before his foot came down on the line?
There is not a 3 that Parham ever did not love. Get his ass low where he can do some damage.
Quote from: MUEng92 on January 24, 2025, 06:16:11 PMHad Kam let go of the ball before his foot came down on the line?
No
Also, If Dixon is strictly gonna launch 30 footers tonight. I will take my chances.

You took some really potent drugs?
Cannot make open shots. Frustrating as hell.
Too many threes from the wrong guys.
Norman shooting a 3 is the equivalent to being chinese paper cut tortured.
It's crazy how every player is given the same green light
Tre adds nothing Parham needs to get his ass down low. What does he shoot from 3? about 25%
Wow. Kam had a lay-up there.
Yeah, I just don't know if Kams shot is gonna come back
That HAS to be an early roof raiser. And it wasn't even close
Attack the freaking rim.
Tough D Ben
Kam with a wide open brick
Quote from: PGsHeroes32 on January 24, 2025, 06:23:26 PMYeah, I just don't know if Kams shot is gonna come back
That HAS to be an early roof raiser. And it wasn't even close
Didn't look like the ball had any rotation on it.
Is Lowrey's long sleeve shirt actually cotton, not dry fit? It looks thick and uncomfortable
Should be up closer to 15.
Multiple chances to extend this and bricking open shots
Great D and rebounding. Refs also really letting us play
Sit Jones. He is doofussing now
Work for a great shot and we can win this easy.... Let's Goo Marquette!
Was Kam really out of bounds?
4-14 from 3, 4-7 from 2. Zero FT attempts. Move the ball and attack the fking basket.
Quote from: muwarrior69 on January 24, 2025, 06:27:57 PMWas Kam really out of bounds?
Yes, that one I saw, unlike the previous time he stepped on the sideline
Quote from: MuggsyB on January 24, 2025, 06:28:03 PM4-14 from 3, 4-7 from 2. Zero FT attempts. Move the ball and attack the fking basket.
I mean there's been 3 fouls called in this game ahha
Theres not gonna be many free throws.
And most of our shots are good looks. Except one rush from Royce. And another from Tre who will never be a "good look"
I'm ok with their last couple shots that they took a step inside the 3 pt line to shoot
No idea what has happened to Kam's shot and touch.
These Kam wild shots are crazy.
Quote from: PGsHeroes32 on January 24, 2025, 06:32:17 PMThese Kam wild shots are crazy.
They were awesome the first 2 months of the season when he never missed
Go strong Ben! Dammit.
Bardo thought that might be reputation based?!?!?!??!
That was the clearest charge in the history of basketball
Quote from: MUEng92 on January 24, 2025, 06:33:08 PMThey were awesome the first 2 months of the season when he never missed
These are not the same shots. He's rushing and/or forcing.
Quote from: MuggsyB on January 24, 2025, 06:31:57 PMNo idea what has happened to Kam's shot and touch.
He keeps missing left. I think his follow through is messed up.
That was sweet Kam
We have to take advantage with Dixon on the bench
Ehh, they look exactly the same to me just not at the basket
Quote from: PGsHeroes32 on January 24, 2025, 06:34:56 PMThat was sweet Kam

100% Usurp this game right now. Up 7 is a joke. Should be up closer to 20.
Quote from: MUEng92 on January 24, 2025, 06:35:08 PMEhh, they look exactly the same to me just not at the basket
Well yeah that's the point lol. He's tossing them from worse spots in a rushed manor lol
That last one was text book. He waited. got position then used his spin.
Based on the game thread we're losing by 20.
Keep the pressure on these guys. Work for open shots and D the hell out of them Go Marquette!
Quote from: Vander Blue Man Group on January 24, 2025, 06:36:27 PMBased on the game thread we're losing by 20.
Take out willies comments and there's nothing to imply we are losing
Thatta boy Chase.
Chase with two great attacks. Hell yeah
Let's go now!! Attack!!!
Damn. Thought Stevie had that.
I didn't see much contact there at all.
Dammit missing every chance to get it over 10.
Had a good drive and didn't finish.
Hands were clean but he hit his whole lower body against the shooter
Classic sketch foul in a half where literally nothing is being called.
All day. Attack,attack, attack.
Anyone elses video freezing up suddenly?
WTH is going on?

Longino keeping Nova in it with the half of his life
That was a really ill advised shot by Zaide tho
Damn Lowery's was half way down
GD Driscoll.
Quote from: PGsHeroes32 on January 24, 2025, 06:43:17 PMMy FS1 has been great.

Royce!!!
Great hit
Bam. Big shot there.
Noice Royce
Yeah, Royce.
Royce has the ultimate green light, I've always said
Huge 3 from Parham.
Big shot! I was pissed at Kam for not taking the shot earlier...now happy.
We look like ourselves tonight more than we have in a while.
Quote from: MuggsyB on January 24, 2025, 06:46:39 PMBam. Big shot there.
It would've been disappointing only being up single digits.
It was nice seeing every Villanova shoulder droop when Royce's shot went in
Against Villanova we absolutely have to defend the 3
e
Gonna be hard to keep Rolls Royce on the bench, got great instincts
Rolls Royce with a great half. Even got a "he's a great stretch big" out of Bardo.
Quote from: willie warrior on January 24, 2025, 06:45:52 PMVillanbobva fans can say the same thing
No, they can't. We're the superior team and have the ability to drop the 🔨. It's simply about getting our mojo back and playing with zero hesitation and confidence.

Who the hell is guarding Bongino? The Secret Service?
Likely 2nd half will be called very differently.

Great, I will be watching closely for the hammer drop

It always seems to work that way. That half flew by with very few foul calls and only two free throws.
I wont be surprised if the second half takes an hour with a parade to the free throw line.
I truly will never understand Kam at the line
Great cut by Stevie.
What a drive and cut
Jop!!! Excellent fight for that reb.
Mans board by Jop even if it was a tie up.
Quote from: MuggsyB on January 24, 2025, 07:06:30 PMJop!!! Excellent fight for that reb.
Have they let go of the ball yet?
Brickus is an unfortunate name for a basketball shooter
Dammit
Hell of a board and push by CHase. Needed that Benny ball to fall
Do we ever get good calls at home?
Beyond frustrating. It's all about our inability to make open threes.
Up 11 with the ball.
3 straight empties.
Nova now shooting 2 down 8
This is a theme. That chase brick was something
Quote from: MuggsyB on January 24, 2025, 07:09:21 PMBeyond frustrating. It's all about our inability to make open threes.
It's making the game much closer than it should be.

Parham is locked in!
Cant buy a foul
Great job Royce
Quote from: mugrad_89 on January 24, 2025, 07:09:55 PMIt's making the game much closer than it should be.
100% correct. I think pretty much all of our 20 3pt attempts have been wide open.
Didn't see a foul vs Parham that Shaka was calling for. Let's get tough and win this one! Big!
Don't give up a three
Flop
Joplin seriously needs to get his three-point shot back.
It doesn't matter what the stats are to this point
Our ceiling is 100% dependent on Jop making 3 open 3s
He simply cannot stay at 30% down the stretch or its NC State all over again
I have no idea why hes incapable of making them
We are killing ourselves right now. This shouldn't be a competitive game with the defense we have played to this point. It's really that simple.
Damn how didn't that fall for Kam

Quote from: PGsHeroes32 on January 24, 2025, 07:17:06 PMDamn how didn't that fall for Kam
I started to celebrate thinking it did go in
Omg Kam.
Stevie!!!
I have no idea how Stevie does it but I'm glad he does
We can't pull away
Hell of a board there Jop
We can attack the paint at will. Just gotta start making a few perimeter shots.
Benny!!!!
WTH is the call?
The Nova guy fouled twice on the same play
Fouled before the shot :/
The refs bwttwr get this rigt, A 3 for Ben and we get the ball. That is the correct call
Quote from: Johnny B on January 24, 2025, 07:22:37 PMFouled before the shot :/
That would be a bad call. So it's probably the call.
Quote from: Johnny B on January 24, 2025, 07:22:37 PMFouled before the shot :/
Of course. Can't get a break.
I assume they'll call the foul where the guy crushed Stevie, unless Ben started his shooting motion
Fk!!
No basket
Tough break there.
Bullshit bullshit.
All I ask for is break-even officiating at home
Quote from: GB Warrior on January 24, 2025, 07:25:22 PMAll I ask for is break-even officiating at home
I mean that was correct
Just horribly unlucky
Why are we hucking 3s?
We aren't beating anyone in a 3 point contest.
We are 6 for fking 23 from distance and all of them been open. I am beyond frustrated.
Another Jop brick
Incredible that he literally cannot find his shot
Jop just regressed as a shooter this year for some reason

Great take from Chase there.

When they miss a 3 they get the rebound. When is the hammer dropping?
Longino is using the Jay Wright pumpfake to perfection and Marquette is jumping out of their shoes every time.
Longino getting on my nerves.

Cut the b-crap. We all know the potential is there.
Longino drilling "hang around" mid rangers all game is starting to get annoying
I'm taking credit for my first forced turnover tonight. When the shot clock reset in the scramble but Nova recovered, I yelled "the shot clock, ref the shot clock reset!" I saw the ref immediately look up and he blew the whistle. They reset the clock to 3 and Nova turned it over on the inbound.
Just doing my part to be a domino.

Yes. Drive. Nova doesn't have good paint defenders. Get to the line.
I don't think we've made a triple in the 2H.
Up 12...down to 6 in like 1.5 min
We just keep doing this
Finally. Zaide.
What a massive block.
Jop's block might have been the play of the game so far.
Jop turing into a game changing defender but a liability as a jump shooter

It's really hurting us now. He has to be better on the offensive end.
It's been a while since I've watched a Jop, "no, no, no, no, no" possession
I hate it when Jop drives.
What reason is there ever
To have Tre Norman on the court with Kam??
Kam is still the ball handler.
You are just essentially having a ZERO offensive player that is also undersized as your 2.
That does not make a lick of sense.

Don't sit two of CHase, Stevie and Kam together. Easy fix
Zaide or DO are the 3 when the other sits
Tre is what most people made Derrick Wilson out to be. He's bad.

Very well said.
Holy sh it Jop
I mean that Jop shot wasn't even close. Wide freaking open. And Ben needs to dunk that with power.
We have had worse halves of basketball, but this is one of the sleepier ones.

Because Shaka calls Tre the most engaged bench player defensively.

I need results not engagement.

Why only one?
Christ
Bad time to finally leave Dixon
Now here comes the run yet again once we get distance
Dammit. Pull away and introduce them to darkness.
As soon as it got to 13 I knew they'd give up a 3
Lol travel called on Stevie for being thrown to the ground.
Let's tackle Stevie, no prob
That was nice fron Kam.
Great take kam
Can we make a mid season trade for Longino. His game is awesome.
This is a hell of a Stevie bounce back offensive game.

Terrific game.
Quote from: MUEng92 on January 24, 2025, 07:49:23 PMWhy only one?
Trying not to be greedy. I'd take him forever.
He is getting really close to being my favorite MU player ever.

Give it 5 years, maybe that'll be a thing in the NCAA

Reminds me a little of Wesley Matthews.
Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on January 24, 2025, 07:51:49 PMCan we make a mid season trade for Longino. His game is awesome.
He only averages 11 points a game, so he's having the game of his life.
How bad are we losing
Amazing bounce back week after the Xavier disaster. Also these zyns kick like a horse after a few rum and cokes woah

FIFY
My unbiased take is MU is much better than we've seen the last few weeks.
Holy crap Stevie has 18?
Thatta boy Benny. Strong defensive game fron the young man.
Attack the rim.
That's it Chase. All day.
What? Where was the foul????? Utter b-shite
What a foul fest. Crazy how inconsistent BE officiating is. Touch fouls called tonight. MU VS X anything goes.
Dixon made such an athletic play splitting the defenders, there was no foul

Amd that wasn't even a touch foul. Garbage.

As predicted they changed it the second half
The first half they let everything go
Jesus fk Jop.
Jop gonna need to go 15-10 from 3 next outing to recover from this game
Come on, Jop.
Jops Jump shot is hilarious at this point
0-6 for Jop from 3.
TF was Jop doing launching that 3 with 15 seconds left on shot clock on an 0-7 night from 3?
Quote from: Elonsmusk on January 24, 2025, 08:04:01 PMTF was Jop doing launching that 3 with 15 seconds left on shot clock on an 0-7 night from 3?
Inexcusable.
That was a pretty brain dead decision to shoot from Jop there.
Maybe I'm angry but Bardo is annoying the F out of me.
I think Jop gets way too much criticism but that was horrendous.
If it takes this long, you can't reverse it
Quote from: MUEng92 on January 24, 2025, 08:05:11 PMAccording to ESPN
Felt like he had a lot more attempts
Finish them!!
Good god Zebras.
Quote from: MUEng92 on January 24, 2025, 08:03:51 PM0-6 for Jop from 3.
I don't think any of them have really been contested.
Quote from: Vander Blue Man Group on January 24, 2025, 08:05:21 PMI think Jop gets way too much criticism but that was horrendous.
That is literally his criticism in a nutshell though
His transformation on D is incredible
But he's incapable of realizing when its not his night, when its not a good play. If he cannot grasp stuff like this we are going to get Nc state'd again.
Not everyone can have the mamba mentality.
The Mighty Pat Driscoll will no go unnoticed in a basketball game
Of course he makes that.
Damn

No doubt this is a concern.
DePaul all over again.
Always feels like guys hit prayers against us in these situations.
How come other teams shoot unconscious against us in the last 2 minutes?
I was way too optimistic, saying the second half would take an hour.

It means Shaka knows what he is doing and you do nothing but complain.
Not again, just woke up, is game over?

MU lost, everybody sucks, Shaka doesn't know how to sub. Same bullshit, different game.

Both of those are incorrect

This MU team is very capable if we simply hit open shots. We put on a defensive clinic most of the game.

Oh crap, no SOTG
I know I can belabor on stuff but that Dixon and 1 in particular really bothers me. Why? Because we see this particular call constantly at the end of games in college hoops. Dixon fell down but literally wasn't touched. Why do the refs fk this up constantly?

I will speculate that it was due to the angle the ref had and an educated guess. Weak sauce, but if that is the biggest complaint, then it can't have been that bad.

Eric Dixon was not in the box score that night for some reason.
