Perfect example of game management.  Our starters are off to a strong start.  Playing pretty well on both ends.  Under 16 timeout hits at 14:40 mark.  Leading 19-12.  Wojo decides to sub in Elliott and John.  Why?  Surely none of the starters were fatigued.

You're right. He should just keep running the starters until they keel over dead, then go with the next 5.  That would be way better game management.

Wojo can still save himself if he goes back to the drawing board on the defensive end.  Surely one of the assistants has a good defensive plan.
Title: Re: Creighton game thread
Post by: nyg on February 17, 2018, 09:43:24 PM
Defense usually gives up 60% fg in losses.  This may be in 70% and over a 100 point game.

Even Nick Bahe saying MU not switching, not covering on picks and CU guards just too bigger than our two.

Looks like we got the wrong Australian kid, but everyone on Creighton looking good.

Oh, Foster with two, there is hope.

Title: Re: Creighton game thread
Post by: AZMarqfan on February 17, 2018, 09:52:22 PM
the only thing more porous than the Packers Defense is Marquette's.  I'm glad they threw in a 3/4 court trap, but they also need to throw in some zone.  All ball screens against us wind up with 1 player wide open...amazingly sometimes both are wide open.

Plenty of talent on our team. Not the issue, just poorly coached. We will have better personnel next year. But there has to be a major overhaul of the defense, perhaps a new assistant coach to just focus on D.

Howard couldn’t even put pressure on legs, not a good sign.  Rewinded and watched and he wasn’t pushed, just bumped hard in front by a very large man. 

And Sacar just hands it over, that’s like fourth one by MU tonight.

It's painful watching Marquette where we have no guards that can create for others.  I think Elliot's actually shown a better ability than Howard or Rowsey.  I'd still like to see Marquette open the 2nd half with a zone.  If guys can split our defenders man-to-man, then at least they'll have the down-low help with the zone.

Yep, that's part of the reason I said that.  The argument for playing 35+ mins of both is that we're trying to outscore other teams.  But we're also giving up a ton of easy buckets.  I wonder if a few less minutes for each would help them each have a chance to run the floor on offense, while also giving them more energy to run around on D.  It's not like Anim and Elliott aren't adequate when in there

Eventually some 3s will fall for Creighton.  We’ve gotten lucky with a nice stretch of misses.  I hope I’m wrong

Coaching!!   Finally!!  I like the zone adjustment.  Now watch for the guy popping to the foul line.  That is how they are going to try and beat this zone.

Final game stats

rebounds
25 Marquette
17 Creighton

The zone was huge, as I only remember Creighton getting one offensive board in the 2nd half, and it was on a long three off the side-rim.  Without running around on D, they had more energy on offense, too

Y'all are welcome.

I couldn't watch the game at home because I don't get FS Wis, and I was too lazy to go out to a bar, nor did I feel like going to a bar alone.

Ta da! Victory!

So I will be looking forward to reading about what happened on Scoop.

Also will be looking forward to reading about how Wojo isn't qualified to coach a biddy-ball rec-league team, how the team has quit on the coaching staff, and how we are the very worst team ever to play Big East basketball.

We have played zone this year on a number of occasions.  What have you been watching?  Our defense has been awful at times, and he has switched it as a result.  One challenge of going exclusively zone is rebounding and also the other team preparing for it to expose it.  Today worked well.

Disagree... Creighton was shooting 75% in the first half and was killing us on the pick n roll like we had 4 players on the court.  The announcers even sounded like scoopers with their comments on the MU defense.  Credit to Wojo for going to the zone.  Our bigs are slow, our guards are unathletic and undersized.  We are not going to match up well man to man, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result has been called insanity by others

so if he's the worst player on the team, shouldn't he never see the floor?  i will bet you a dollar he gets in.  and if that's the case, fire wojo for playing the worst player on the team as 1st or 2nd off the bench ein'a?

6 minutes, fewest on the team and in the first half they scored on a layup on the 3 possesions he was in the game.
