Hoping Jayce doesnt play much.  Hate when wojo choose to chase a 5 out offense with immobile bigs.  If they were superior offensively then i could see it.  Play jamal n brendan at the 4 n 5 tonight

Agreed, it's like a football drill where they are hitting him with blocking dummies. OTOH, Bailey has gotten in two solid shoves with no calls.

Yep. 90% of the missed shots have been good, fairly open shots in the rhythm. Just starting a bit off. Defense has been great. Points will come

so the refs let them play, then the Creighton guy flops and they call an offensive foul on Johnson.

Can't hit a shot again
Title: Re: Creighton Game thread

The different is Creighton has guys who can get mid range shots. WHich is key if we are not making the 3s.

Cut it to 5.

In 2 possessions its back to 10.

22 pts at half. At home.
Title: Re: Creighton Game thread
Post by: warriors141 on February 18, 2020, 08:31:29 PM
get it to 5, then Creighton comes back and leads by 10. Creighton didn't have a good half, but we were flat out pathetic. One of the worst halfs of ball this season. When is the last time Howard was shut out in a half? Is he in a slump or are teams starting to have his number?

Shades of last year - starting to smell like that....

Howard has been a bit off since he was hit in the head.  This is giving me shades of last year after his injury @ Nova.  Need to get him back on track, if that’s letting him run point, so be it.

No. Its a great stadium and the crowd is not the issue. Team did not show up in the first half.

Both student sections have all the tarps on tonight. Gotta get the students involved in big games like this. I'm surprised with tonight's turnout overall. Not so great.

My take:  Markus starts to wear down this time of year. I posted a month ago that it concerned me how much energy/wear and tear he puts on running off ball screens, defending hard, shooting 20 times per game - all while being undersized. He’s got to work that much harder.

Some may feel - give me a break..he’s a 20-year old - he has no reason to be fatigued. In my view he seems a 1/2 step slower than earlier in the year.

Marquette cannot win with Markus taking 13 shots, this deferring from Markus and giving his shots to Koby n Sacar is suicide. They cannot shoot and Koby may be the dumbest player in D1 bball.  Markus taking contested shots is better than Koby or Sacar taking wide open ones.  Kobys air ball to seal the game was certainly appropriate

That is a fair question.  He has been a trainwreck this year.  He competes and is a good defender but literally is a trainwreck on offense.  The shooting and hesitation in ball movement, terrible passing and turnovers has just been horrible this year.
