Post by: tower912 on November 03, 2025, 05:42:53 PM
OK, new season, new scoop game chat.  Missed shots and turnovers occur every game.  Young players mess up defensive rotations.  Every player on the team isn't the worst ever.  MU will win more than 5 games this season.   
Good talk.  Break!

I feel like the guy in the Progressive commercial trying to keep young homeowners from turning into their parents.

Probably.  Especially if MU is pushing tempo.  And, with Sean and NJ getting into the lane differently than Kam did, there are going to be missed connections as they figure out where their teammates will be.

What a stoopid shot! Ugh!!! Slow down, Sean! What is he doing? Shaka CANNOT play these 5 guys together! Ugh!!!!!! Another brick for Gold! Caedin is no Oso - not even close! The freshmen can't be any worse than this!

Shaka played lots of guys so the offense was understandably sloppy. SJ is still looking for the balance between making things happen on offense and playing with poise. Gold did not get many good looks. He needs to slow down his release. Owens has to be more physical. Stevens is built for BE play. Effort and speed were impressive.

Very good point Tower. Like many here, I focused on the poor FT shooting and not the fact that we drew so many fouls. We righted the ship later in the game somewhat though. Same scenario in other games with decent FT shooting could push a close game into the W column.  :)

Hard to tell a lot from these first games. Shaka playing a lot of guys, and everyone trying to do too much. The Indiana game will probably be the first indication of what we really have. But, having said that, I was certainly impressed with Nigel James - that kid is a player. I also thought Stevens looked really good. It was nice to see Chase sort of taking charge in the second half and also nice to see Zaide playing well. But, maybe the thing I found most interesting was the way Tre Norman played - good defense and calm and efficient on offense. Looks like he may have made some progress since last season.

On to the next game.

Quote from: tower912 on November 04, 2025, 07:27:04 AMIt matters far more that MU got to the line so much.  Only one game, of course, but different than we have seen.

I was actually encouraged by the FT shooting. The guards/wings(Jones, James, Norman, Ross, Lowry and Owens) shot 20-22. Those are the guys that will have the ball late. The bigs struggled, but Gold is probably the only big that will be on the floor when we need to make them and he's shown he can make them in the past so I'm not too worried about him. And like you said, they got there a lot which is the most important thing.

Equally impressed with Tre's game. Young players have a tendency to hoist up a 3 the first time they touch the ball when they get in there. You saw that with Parham and Phillips (and maybe Steven's, cant recall), but Tre showed a lot of poise out there I thought. There will be games when Jones and James are in foul trouble and we'll need him out there for extended minutes. He definitely will have a role on this team.

I came here to say this as well.  Look at the percentage from the players that get the most minutes.  They hit their FTs

He never made the team, what happened to his dream?

He was gonna be a player, ever since he was a kid
He was gonna shake the rim, just like Jerome Whitehead did
Now he says NIL, it makes him feel unwell
Looks at his average site and nothin' has been alright

Liked all the below. Chase for SOTG. Zaide for 13 points. Gold was stabilizing force with veteran leadership.  Owens for most points per minute. Clark for altering and 5 rebounds. Stevens for his 2 3 pointers. Nigel for his floor game and defense. Tre much the same as Nigel. Parham and Jones had better 2nd halves. Hamilton had some shot alters and defense. Phillips showed flashes.  Walkons and all contested passes got in the passing lanes and had steals. Deflections were at 45 with minutes left. Not sure how many deflections Marquette ended up with.
