Heck no... I'm living in the dark. Hoping to finally paint some of the upstairs baby blue. Think I'll do some navy/baby blue/gold/white bars in the garage when it warms up, too.

Like how the announcers last game tried to hype it up when he didn't call one.  He must have had a traumatic youth for how sensitive he gets all the time.

All stations do this and its garabage.

It pisses me off more when ESPN does it for a football or basketball game that is a blow out instead of switching to the game more people want.

Is it the deal that if you want to add it you can click a button online, but if you want to cancel you have to call, be on hold for 20 minutes, refuse two offers for a lower rate, be told it's cancelled but it isn't, so call and repeat the process next month?  I've stopped adding premiums/packages for that reason...MLB.TV now lets you cancel anytime online, and now they get more money from me since I'll buy it knowing I can cancel as soon as the Brewers start sucking.

Only listening so can't get the pulse...is it a Buzz trying to overwhelm them with fresh bodies, just mass subbing looking for combinations, or ?  Just wondering what the strategy is since everyone is getting some good run.

Weak.  Chicos, fix that ish!  Would actually increase revenue when people get disgruntled like me and won't add since it's too much of a pain to cancel.

Except that we don't score with him at point, other than that, yeah he looks great.

His entry passes are far superior to Derrick and we were scoring fine.

Did he tell Ox to miss a bunny? Juan to travel?

Or let their big guy get 4 offensive rebounds?

Is it the deal that if you want to add it you can click a button online, but if you want to cancel you have to call, be on hold for 20 minutes, refuse two offers for a lower rate, be told it's cancelled but it isn't, so call and repeat the process next month?  I've stopped adding premiums/packages for that reason...MLB.TV now lets you cancel anytime online, and now they get more money from me since I'll buy it knowing I can cancel as soon as the Brewers start sucking.

Only took 3 minutes to cancel.  Well worth it.  Though I could have gone without seeing the Xavier run... ;D

Ox has got the ball multiple times. Guy is a little sluggish right now. Should be fine now.

I've been very impressed with Dawson's game tonight.

Out of bounds plays, out of timeout and end of clock situations are what Buzz calls "special teams", supposedly a big focus in practice.  Unfortunately, something just rarely jives since our special teams have always been "special"...even some of the memorable game winners have happened after the original play broke down.

Dawson understand how to play pg way more than Wilson.  Easy to see that.  Dawson needs work on d, but he is way more natural pg.  Not even close.  Passes are delivered on time on target

He passes the eye test, big time.  Just needs to get it all together, which will come with time.  Much higher ceiling than Wilson.

There is far more to basketball than scoring points, he may have scored 11, but with poor defense, not boxing out and failing to kick the ball out (instead trying to force things) he has cost us more than he has scored.

He also tried to start another fight by grabbing the Christon and dragging him out of bounds and then subsequently trying to shove him off.  We don't need that.

IN BUZZ WE TRUST. Otule gets his 3rd fould and Buzz takes Gardner out--what happens: Otule IMMEDIATELY gets his 4th foul. What a great decision Buzzo.

Title: Re: Xavier game thread
Post by: forgetful on January 09, 2014, 09:37:48 PM
Dawson was 1-4 from the field with 1 assist, no rebounds or steals...while playing the majority of the half.  Oh, and he didn't play defense.

But yeah, he "played well."



And Derrick in his 10 minutes has 2 fouls and is 0-3...his 2 assists come from passing the ball to Jake Thomas coming off screens...he has created absolutely nothing this game and provided next to nothing on offense.

I'm not a play Dawson instead of Derrick guy, but in the first half Buzz played Dawson to a large part because he was playing very well and to let D. Wilson know that attitude needs to be left at home.

I will say, I'm actually confident when Jake catches and shoots on the curl at the top of the key.  He seems to love that shot.

BIG opportunity missed there with the offensive foul.  But lets play D now, what we do best.

He's very skilled but he does swap a nice play for a bone-headed one right after a lot.  I'm excited to see him continue improving and get his game under control.

Second half wasn't that bad overall.  They were still making shots despite pretty good defense.  Needed to box out more.  Offense still struggles to run plays so many of our scores are iso.  Disappointing to come so close and lose but maybe Magic Dawson gets more burn again next game.

First off they are playing halfway decent today, at least in the second half. Xavier has just been hitting their  contested shots. And secondly you don't have to be happy with them, but pissing and moaning just makes you a bad fan. Feel free to criticize them but at least make it constructive. Saying walk home to men who are out there busting their butts to represent your university to the best of their ability deserve much better.

Indeed.  It's also time we acknowledge the solid play of our opponents once in a while.  Need to stop trying to explain every mistake and give some credit where credit is due.  Christon went off because he's a skilled player.  Made a lot of tough, contested shots.  Plenty of growing pains for this MU squad but I still enjoyed watching the game tonight.

For anyone who wants to continue to ridicule Buzz's paint touches philosophy, I'd recommend you go back and watch this game any time you are tempted to do so. This game was won/lost at the FT line. Xavier got the ball into the lane and lived at the FT line. MU didn't, and was content to live behind the 3-pt line. Made enough to keep it close, but never really had a chance to win.

While we are at it.  Tonight we shot over 40% from 3 and would have been over 45% if it wasn't for forced contested 3's at the end of the game.  We had 21 assists.  That was with basically completely abandoning the paint touch rule.

So by abandoning the rule we shot 10 percentage points better from the perimeter. 

We were on the road.  We were not going to get any calls no matter what.  By abandoning the paint touch rule our offense was the most fluid it may have been all year...
