We also win every game Dawson gets 30 plus minutes.

We have a marquee win of Providence at home with Derrick...which irconically this was the game where Buzz went the play everyone route.

You asked the question. If you think it's ridiculous don't bring it up.

I think that is the clear issue. The fact that he is content or "able to sleep at night" knowing the promise land Derrick Wilson as taken the MU program.

Title: Re: Butler game thread
Post by: forgetful on February 04, 2014, 08:42:40 PM
It seem like Gardner just doesn't want to pass the ball to Jujuan.  Had him open on the skip bass, but it looked like he noticed it was Jujuan and then forced a drive/shot.

Even swinging the ball around the perimeter, when he noticed it was Jujuan he held on to it and tried to look for somewhere else to go with the ball, before finally relenting and passing it to Jujuan.

Buzz literally and I mean literally never draws up a good play out of a time out.

And I am not just basing this off this year.

Not true at all, I can think of multiple instances (including at least once last game) where a great shot was created in a play for Jake coming out of a T.O. and he drained it.

Post by: NersEllenson on February 04, 2014, 09:14:39 PM
No it has been for a while. Being happy that a guy in the team you are a fan of finally did it and mainly thinking he is a basketball coach when it is obvious he does not know crap about it.

Sorry dude.  I'll try to exhibit a better knowledge of basketball - I wish I never suggested Dawson's minutes should have been upped after Grambling, and complained that we had problems at that position - because clearly this season has unfolded really well and exceeding everyone's expectations.

Yup.

I know he's listed at 5'10" but that guy was more like 5'7"-8" in person.

Little guy could handle, had big balls when shooting, and always found a way to get to the basket.

This is the culmination of all of the ridiculous substitution patterns, short leash with freshman, trying to extract blood from the turnip of starting backcourt Buzz rolled with.

All the players on the team are frustrated with their role, with the exception of perhaps 2....and it is all showing up in this game and St. John's.  There is just ZERO flow to the team.  Nobody gets in any kind of rhythm.

I would have agreed with you seasons ago but this season is crazy because everyone is a liability:
DG's lack of speed and defense
DW's offense
JT's inability to create a shot and defense
JW's foul problems, passiveness and disappearing act
Todd's passiveness and disappearing act
Deonte, JJJ, and John's youth and inexperience
CO's offense and speed
Juan's offense

Burton needs to simmer down sometimes.  Love his attitude, but damn.

And Mayo clearly needs the game on the line to hit his easy ones.

Tied at 53, then the brainfarting possessions.  Missed free throws, turnovers.  Come on guys.

And another missed frontend.......

Hope to see more of this lineup.  Got your tough players, scoring potential, rebounding, Burton is the only weak defensive player but he's a steals machine with four of the best defenders on with him.

Alot of time left, especially if MU can't hit free throws.

Soon to be "hack a Derrick" time.

Post by: PGsHeroes32 on February 04, 2014, 10:03:13 PM
Good Mayo, Bad Mayo. I think it's clear we need to roll with the Mayo.

The more Todd shoots(and plays) the better.

It appears Jamil and Todd both received the message Buzz sent last game when they were benched and they both played great today. Except for Jamil just missing those free throws..

Post by: muhoops1 on February 04, 2014, 10:13:36 PM
It's not that this team can't win, it doesn't want to win!  Double dribble, bricking 3 FT's.  What's the opposite of clutch?  MU...

Let's see:

last three possessions:  1) missed front end  2) turnover 3) two missed fts.  Really?

For the backcourt:

Jake 1 for 6, 1 for 4 from three, but: 6 rebound, 2 assists, 1 block, 2 turnovers

Dwil 1 for 5, but: 8 assists, 5 steals, 4 turnovers

6 turnovers not good, shooting very bad, but adequate tonight I guess. 

Others:

Jamil, 17 points, 6 boards

Burton 5 for 11, 2 bounds 4 steals.

I think he had at least 2, maybe 3 deflections that led to steals as well

Snuck out of business dinner to watch last 15 mins.   At the Twin Peaks in Phoenix, the staff is more entertaining than the game.

It is quite a place. Love me some Kiltlifter.

The defense has to come out on Todd & Jake which gives Burton a lot of openings.
