Warriors v the basketball spawn of the Tanned One. Euwwwww
Let's eradicate those basketball b@stards from the face of the earth.
Ox back with his fellow warriors. Christmas in July!
GO WARRIORS!!!
Dunks, what flavor of Sonoran Salsa pairs well with Warrior basketball in July?
-
I prefer my black bean and corn for victory in July!!
Go Warriors!!
-
Ox not starting
-
We need to find our shooting touch again.
-
Need to work inside to open up the outside. Need Jamil and Gardner.
-
Davante is at his heavier weight.
-
Ox!!
-
Did Jockitch just say Wilson is 6'10? Lol
-

Ox!!
Yes . It is summer but he is still the worst announcer .
-
Jamil isn't far off from 6'10". He was always within an inch of OTule.
-
So, what's everyone drinking? I'm going with Zombie Dust.
Fire up Warriors!

Lemonade. Just got back from vacay and need to detox a little.
-
Need more davante and Jamil combo
-
Lemonade. Just got back from vacay and need to detox a little.
That's what tomorrow is for.
-
Shooting touch not there on either side. Doesn't feel like they're on the same page tonight. Still early, but need more team play on offense.
-
Gotta take that to the hole, DJO.
-
Ox has been pounding down the brats.
-
Gardner is still an absolute force
-
NO ONE CALLS HIM WOJ!
-
I see Devante got my order of salsa, he's been stocking up.
-
Jerel and DJO playing terrible
-
Buycks is a talented player. Really nice drive to the hole.
-
Sooooo....what's everyone drinking tonight?
Old school here. Evan Williams.
-
I like being able to hear what the ref says
-
we need some 3's to drop.
-
I love Wes.
-
At a play. Score? Update?
-
At a play. Score? Update?
We are up 49-44 14 minutes left second.
-
At a play. Score? Update?
Mu 49-44. Buycks looking to get back to the nBA.
-
super angry at DJO's beard - went from accentuating the chin to hiding it.
also, convo with my kid:
7yo: i thought you said Marquette was playing, i only see a SeaGull logo. are they the Golden Eagles?
me: yes.....and that is a pretty bad looking eagle
7yo: are they the dark uniforms or the super ugly uniforms
me: *sigh* the super ugly ones
-
Turn it back on to see an immediate 7-0 run.
-
Bad guys went on a run game tied 51-51. Davante is very large ( I would say 300 plus) and it looks like he can only play limited minutes
-
Ox has not shrunk.
-
Becoming apparent why DJO fell off the map
-
Ox has not shrunk.
And the announcers are making jokes about the size of Davante's ass.
-
Rel doesn't look 106 like Dakich said but he is old and slow.
-
And the announcers are making jokes about the size of Davante's ass.
His a$$ is the size of Waukesha
-
If we took good shots we'd be killing them.
-
Gardner with amazing move til I realize he drops it off to Derrick.
Refusing to put game away
-
we should be up by 12 or more
-
We are up 65-62 with 5 minutes left. We need to hold them off from a run.
Davante has incredibly quick hands.
-
We are up 71-67
-
We are up 73-69 with 1:30 left. Jamil Wilson with a hustle put back.
-
We are up 75-71 with 56 seconds left. We have ball.
-
That's the DJO I loved for 3 years!!!
-
We got this.
-
DJO!!!
-
That should do it!!
SOTG-Buycks.
-
DJO comes through with a shot at end of shot clock we are up 80-71 with 25 seconds left.
-
Until tomorrow boys, and chick.
-
Interesting to me that all of the guys seem to be playing with the same defensive principles. MU did a better job of switching and helping. And nobody has an answer for Gardner.
-
Very good team effort. Buycks is a helluva player and with DJO and Davante we are a force.
-
DJO comes through with a shot at end of shot clock we are up 80-71 with 25 seconds left.
nice dunk at the end while everyone stood around also.
-
Who's #5?
-
Wojo best be taking notes. This is a team who knows how to finish.
-

Hate that there is "TBT" written across the butt of everyone's shorts. These are pro basketball players, not junior high cheerleaders.

Nice win!

Marcus Jackson

Hard to believe Dwight Buycks can not make the league, really impressed me. Team did not shot the ball well in the first half, played tough in the second. Fun
to watch, glad to see them, played like Warriors at the end. If they make it to final 4, all the coaches should show up and be there, I mean all of them that left.
-
Buycks has turned himself into a helluva point Guard. He's a way better player now then he was in college.
-
Watching the second game . Mike Bibby and Jason Williams really understand how to distribute the ball.
-
Seriously people this is a step or two down from NBA summer league. Let's not read too much into this.
-

I don't agree with this. These are all the summer league guys who couldn't make the league 5-10 years ago who have developed their games more. Just look at Marquette's team. Everyone is far better than they were when they left Marquette their senior year, maybe with the exception of DJO. And I don't even know about him.
-

Absolutely. Pretty sure that MJax and Chapman would not be getting run in a summer league game. Ox still can't guard anybody. But he does still have great hands, both rebounding and catching passes. It is a pleasant diversion. But just wait until Wes loses his first game ::)
-
Marquette has had some god damn terrific guards these last 15 years.
-

MJax is getting run here. Chapman is too except he can knock down open shots so he has value.
I watch a lot of NBA Summer League. This tournament, at least at this point of the final 8-16 teams, is better quality than Summer League. Less talent, but better basketball.
-
Yes they have. And Wes, Diener, DJames , and Blue aren't even playing.
-

-
They would not be in a summer league game.
I misunderstood your use of "run". Thought you meant getting run off the floor. Disregard my previous post.
-
Ox has not shrunk.
But he is unstoppable on the block.
-
Arguably the most fun I've had watching MU game in three years. Beaming with pride, and loving Wes on the sideline.
-
But he is unstoppable on the block.
Not if there is athletic help. He has consistently struggled against shot blocking help defenders. It happened late tonight. He should excel in this because there just isn't time or coaching to really work out a defensive rotation on him.
-
Dakich on the call kept on raving about Ox (quick feet, good hands, high bball IQ).
He said if Davante got into incredible shape, he'd be in the NBA. I could see him fit the Glenn Big Baby Davis, Jared Sullinger mold.
-
But he never has. Gardner has great hands, great feet, great instinct around the basket, great touch. He is an absolute brute down low. But.... he has always struggled to play defense in space, he has always struggled with his weight, and he will never be taller than 6'7. Let's pretend, for the sake of argument, that he was on Cavaliers' roster. Who would he have been able to guard for Golden State? Let's pretend he was a Warrior as a pro, too. Who could he have guarded on Cleveland?

#TBT has a pic up of all you great fans from last week in Chicago.Too bad chick and I were away from town. Lookin' good!

Holy Christ people. I know you love our guys but there is a reason these guys are playing here and not in the NBA. They aren't being overlooked. Most of them have played for NBADL teams or even had a cup of coffee in the Association. Buycks signed a two year contract a couple years ago and was given ever opportunity to stick.
Just enjoy them for what they are doing now.
-

Was thinking the exact same thing. Rel peaked as a senior, but Dwight turned into a much better player 5 years after college.

More students there than at the Big East home opener last season, ai-na?
-
Buycks looks like a NBA player. Jamil looks like a D League player. Jerel, DJO, they have their moments but are inconsistent.
What it is to me is fun. It's a great chance to see our guys again. To see Gardner be a bully in the post, to see Derrick play bigger than his size, to see Jerel play defense. Hope they win it all, but regardless I love the competition for the chance to see these guys again. Hope it helps their careers, but Buycks looks like the only guy with a NBA shot. Gardner...no way.

I agree, Gardner is not and will never be NBA quality.
That said, I don't think your Cleveland/GS analogy is fair. If he could guard backup quality players and lottery teams he would be in the NBA. But he won't be able to do that either.
-
Lots of fun. Also loved Davante's dad's Netflix and Chill tshirt. Never change, Gardners
-
Buycks has turned himself into a helluva point Guard. He's a way better player now then he was in college.
I really think he was very good in college too. Buzz misplayed him, he didn't fit Buzz's style. IMO biggest mistake Buzz made as a coach was not adapting his style to showcase Buycks.

Buycks will go overseas and then come back to the D League when his overseas season ends. I think he has a good shot at being called up again.
I enjoy watching the rest of the guys play . We really had some fun players in the Crean/Buzz era . I like how they value the Marquette experience. Wojo and MU are making a good move by embracing this team.
-
Im sure this has been asked and answered somewhere, search is not providing it.
Where's Dominic James and Lazar?

Survive and advance

Where's Dominic James and Lazar?
It's Dominic Wright now, and I believe he is selling Pulloons.
-
That was a lot of fun.
I told my wife before the game, "It's just a bunch of our former players and I promise I won't get too wound up during the game" -- because, well, let's just say I get pretty amped for the big games.
I didn't have to say all that, though, because it was Mrs. MU82 who was clapping and cheering and yelling at the TV! It was really funny. I guess we both missed watching MU hoops -- and it was a blast seeing some of our faves from the last few years on the court together.
When it was over, I was happy that our guyz won, of course. But I think I was happier that now we get to watch them again tomorrow night!
-

Back to James. He played in Qatar for the last couple of seasons, but not sure what he's doing now. Twitter says he's in Atlanta, and still keeps an eye on MU hoops.
Lazar is harder to track down. He signed with the Lakers D-League team towards the end of last season, but there wasn't much on him beyond that.

Probably in new Orleans somewhere tracking spirits or auditioning for the next ghostbusters.

Watched the second game between Always A Brave and Pedro's Posse. Always A Brave is made up of vets of Bradley's sweet sixteen team from ten years ago. They are going to be tough to beat.
Marcellus Sommerville has been playing in France since and will be tough to stop. Marquette's advantage will be youth and guard depth. Always A Brave also has O'Bryant at center who was an NBA lottery pick. Luckily he seems to be out of shape.

Wardle versus Wojo

Wardle versus Wojo
Which brings up another point. Always A Brave was coached by ex-Indiana U four year starter and Peoria native A J Guyton assisted by his high school coach. They seemed to be very well coached. Given Wes' lack of coaching experience, I think that Always A Brave could have an edge there.

Wes is definitely called out plays etc. I think he is taking it seriously and enjoying his role.

Don't be a d!ck. Get over yourself and your adolescent jokes. Lazar gave everything he had for MU. His Mom walked out on him when he was a kid. Unless you have lost a parent you don't know the struggle he's faced. It's easy to rip someone's idioscynracies when you don't know their story. He's searching for something. It'd be a lot cooler if you could man up and not judge him.

Even I think this reaction is a little over the top.
He made a lame joke, that we've heard a thousand times about an odd quirk that one of our most beloved alumni has. Tell him its not funny and explain why but no need to call him names.

I really wasn't kidding. Dominic James was changing his name to Dominic Wright and started a company selling gift packages that automatically inflate when you open them called "pulloons". He and his wife were co-owners of the company.

Really like that he is thinking about a career outside of basketball. And yes, he is playing in Qatar. Here is a blog he and his wife run.

I think we play tonight at 7. Can anyone confirm?

Corn? But I didn't have any corn...can't believe my wife didn't pick any of that up. Probably concerned about the methanol

Thanks.
I just got a text from Dunks that he has a special batch of his corn and black bean salsa right now, through 1:00 today at the Waukesha farmers market.
Mention Scoop and he will autograph your salsa.

Any word on Lockett? Is he on the team or not?

Wow, I read through all of that. An amazing life he is leading with his Beautiful athletic Wife and Daughter. Doesn't get any better than that.

Awesome for DJ(W)! He looks tremendously happy.
Didn't realize Lazar played 12 games for the defenders. Hasn't put anything on twitter since 2012. He seems like an interesting dude.

Btw, Zar got hurt during the D-League playoffs with Vander. My recollection is that it was moderately serious. I don't think he was available because of that.

Corn? But I didn't have any corn...can't believe my wife didn't pick any of that up. Probably concerned about the methanol

I left right at 1pm today, very slow the last hour. I hope you didn't waste a trip. I can always make arrangements to drop off or meet if you want some, just message me.
Thanks my good man, but we are up in Wisconsin Rapids golfing sentry world, lake arrowhead and bullseye. Otherwise, my Saturday men's league- I don't get off the course(Edgewood/big bend) until 1:30ish. First rain out, I'll be there
Have some concerns chili about that salsa 5000 under the table. Does it come with Popsicles?

So...Derrick started for Buzz, started for Wojo, now starting for Wes Matthews ahead of DJO and Mo Acker.

And he is still ridiculously incompetent on the offensive end. What's your point?

Think we might get destroyed.
That guy is too big

Anyone find Trent Lockett?

Maybe the millionaire professional basketball guys know more than us Scoop hacks?

9-6 Bradley winning 12 minutes left.

time to tighten up the D, maybe even block out a little.

17-5 Bradley run, trailing by 11 with 6 in the half.

Looking out of sync and frustrated.

O'Bryant killing us and their dual point guards are limiting turnovers. Good job of taking us out of our game.
-
Not a good sign when the announcers decide to start talking about baseball instead of the game.
-
Think we're getting good shots for the most part but gotta knock them down
Struggling to limit Bradley's offense though. Guards are quick and can shoot and Obryant is huge.
-
Anyone find Trent Lockett?
He's rappin' over at Perpetual Life Cemetery, ai na?
-
Lightning quick 16-2 run and Marquette leads 39-38.
-
And here come the Warriors!
We got this...
-
Doable, hey?

ESPN2
Thanks brew
-
Where is Wes Matthews?
where is he?
-
that's how to end the half.
-
Bradley was better most of the half, but a brilliant 19-3 finish including a triple with under a second left has our alumni up 42-39 at the half. Need to adjust in the second half, this Bradley team is good and won't go down without a fight.
-
Sweet!
DJO bringing the edge!
-
Dakich is consistently one of the worst announcers.
I miss Thomas Bilde.
-
Not a good sign when the announcers decide to start talking about baseball instead of the game.
Second time in as many days.
-
Not sure if this has been previously discussed, but does anyone else find that Chapman looks a whole lot like Paul Pierce?
-
Playing faster and picking up the pressure D made a huge difference. I didn't like the initial gameplan of trying to be slow and having Gardner work too much down low against a 7 foot pro in O'Bryant. DG got frustrated and we stagnated. Run these 30+ guys.
One more thing. Travis was crisp in the huddle calling up a very solid play with 5 seconds. The guys executed perfectly and got a great shot. Happened to go in but either way it was very solid.
-
At times Buycks just looks scary good. He's really grown so much from his time here.

Djo, out of control. Flashbacks
-
Refs are definitely inconsistent. At times calling it tight, at times letting them play. Just called a goal trend on a ball that was never touched.
-
M Jackson should've been subbed in to d up sommerville a long time ago
-
And that looks to be the nail
-
Danger zone.
-
Gut check time. 9-0 Bradley run has Marquette down 72-66 with 4:33 left.
-
Up to now, we've had a run in is to come back. Do we have another?
We got this.
-
Banked 3 for Bradley at the end of the shot clock was the turning point.
-
That extra three there looked rather daggerish to me. Guessing this is it.
-
Fun while it lasted. Bradley just too tough down the stretch. Better on defense, made their shots. A bit too much individual play from our guys after they got down. Hopefully a learning experience for next year.
-
Proud of our guys.
-
It was great to watch our guys. Hopefully an annual thing.

A bit too much? Totally broke down to 1-on-1 play the last 6-7 minutes. Trying to dribble through crowds. Outta control. Silliness.
Obviously, Wes can coach circles around Diener - ha!
Anyways ... I enjoyed their run, especially the win over the Fightin' Creaners, and I'm with those who hope this is an annual tradition.
-
Favorite part of the whole game: Diener asking "is that guy reffing Big East this season" after a terrible call on Mo Acker.
Worst part of the game: Individual play at the end.
The bradley guys were not better players but they were a better team. Hope the MU guys can stick together and keep doing this because they have more talent than nearly any team in the tourney.
n.b. DG is not good in this format, especially at 400 lbs. Have another sushi Davante!
-
Hard to win games when one team is in double bonus with 11 minutes to go.
-
But he is unstoppable on the block.
Or not.

Davante probably gained weight last night after having eaten the basketball so often. O'Bryant totally dominated him, and that surprised me.

Why? Athletic 7 footer. With Ox's lack of vertical, all he had to do is keep Gardner from getting into his body. Not the first time, but probably the last representing MU. I am sure DG will continue to beat up on skinny 6'8 guys in Japan and France. He will not make the NBA.

Why? Athletic 7 footer. With Ox's lack of vertical, all he had to do is keep Gardner from getting into his body. Not the first time, but probably the last representing MU. I am sure DG will continue to beat up on skinny 6'8 guys in Japan and France. He will not make the NBA.
If O'Bryant was even remotely athletic he would've played more than 4 years in the NBA.

But he was good enough to play four years in the league. Which means that DG has nothing he hasn't seen.

Only delusional folks thought Davante had even a prayer at the NBA.
O'Bryant isn't very athletic. His build is similar to Hibbert's. And Hibbert also would make Davante eat the ball all day and night.
Doesn't mean I don't like Davante and didn't very much appreciate everything he brought to our program.

Hibbert might make Davante eat the ball. But Dirk still checks under his bed for Davante every night.

Thanking his lucky stars that every single one of the stoopid NBA GMs passed on the guy who was bound to be his nemesis.

Davante probably gained weight last night after having eaten the basketball so often. O'Bryant totally dominated him, and that surprised me.
Exact same type of guys he would have trouble with in college.
