Just threw down a double espresso so I have a bit more energy today!!! Let's go now!!. Get out of the blocks quickly, tickle the twine from distance, get to the line with regularity, snare every rebound and loose ball, defend Davis and Floppy, attack the paint with power and authority, and play poised and focused hoops for 40 mins.
-
Phew. I was afraid you were going to be lethargic
-
Phew. I was afraid you were going to be lethargic
Tower, you desperately need to kick up your energy!!

I went with 3 shots of espresso for good measure.
-
Let's Go Warriors!
-
Tower, you desperately need to kick up your energy!!
I'll try to stay awake.
-
Hope somebody sets a massive pick on the nut punching nympho, knocking him into the third row and next week.
-
Going small with Kam starting.
-
Whisky's unis are hideous.
-
Announcers aren’t on site.
-
Kava for me, settle the nerves. This should be a great game with a win for MU at the end.
-
Good grief, how late was that call?
-
nice white ugly shoes clashing with black unis. bs
-
How are the Badgers' jerseys legal? The numbers are the exact same color as the jersey.
-
lewis found the soft rims already
-

They may be legal, but they are ugly as sin.
-
Floppy
-
Those UW jerseys are a psychological horror. Flopison with a flop not even 3 minutes into the game.
-
Way too early double there by Kolek.
-
Mistaking pace for bad shots in the half court right now.
-
Already getting hosed by the homer refs.
-
Trying to match Wisco rhythm shots with jacked up shots.
Got catch and shoot
-
Already gave up two potential dunks due to lazy defense
-
cya next half kur
-
I will always hate mic’d rims
-
Already gave up two potential dunks due to lazy defense
lol
-
Fk. Inexcusable trans D after a make. Kur has to let that go. We really need to get to the line or the 3-Ball cooking.
-
I will always hate mic’d rims
More or less than Christmas music?
-
Badgers leading on the scoreboard and definitely have better hair .
We can’t do anything about the hair , but let’s take advantage of these open looks we are getting.
-
Know Shaka likes the open 3 but all our points are in the paint. Think we should try that more
-
LOL. "1941 Nat Champions".
-
I'll never understand not recruiting guys that can shoot.
Going to have to dominate the paint to have any chance
-
No foul there!!??
-

Crowd not really into the game so far

Jop has got a stroke

Joplin Oso and Mitchell upped our hair and our score
-
Thatta boy DJop!!
Fouls are becoming a concern.
-
No foul there!!??
Obvious bump foul totally ignored by the homer refs. The hose job will continue.
-
waiting to see if badgers miss a layup. if they do call a late whistle on us
-
More or less than Christmas music?
;D ;D ;D
I like Christmas music in a certain window. Mic'd rims always suck
-
Tyler with some beautiful finds.
-
Let's go now!! Two sweet dimes by Kolek.
-
Lewis has played selfishly so far.
-
MU's press is one of the worst in college basketball
-
Daryl gotta see Jop trailing there
-
Flopper denied
-
BAM!!! O-MAX!!
-
Why do players not follow their shots anymore?
-
MU's press is one of the worst in college basketball
Lol
-
They are letting them play. Something I never thought I’d say during a MU-UW game in Madison
-
Thats a hilarious timeout by Gard to make sure the game doesn't get too exciting.
-
Stevie Telegraphed that drive a bit much
Think we are doing a good job of making Wisco go a little more at our pace though.
-
MU's press is one of the worst in college basketball
And it wont work against these guys.
-
Why do players not follow their shots anymore?
OMax not only didn’t follow his shot, he stood there and posed with his arm raised for 2-3 seconds
-
Obvious bump foul totally ignored by the homer refs. The hose job will continue.
Whining willie weturns
-
Played straight through the under 12 time out.
-
Man....so many missed opportunities. The D is decent as is the D glass. Offensively we're discombobulated. Use the shot fake at the rim. Oso has been solid. It's time to hit some WIDE OPEN SHOTS. Should be. up around 8.
-
Wahl is another Bucky pumk.
-
Lewis has played selfishly so far.
Hasn't he been sitting for awhile with Joplin in instead?
-
MU's press is one of the worst in college basketball
Why are you so negative? We’re winning outright as 6.5 point underdogs. We’re 7-1 with multiple wins nobody expected.
Who hurt you?
-
Wahl is another Bucky pumk.
Apparently NCAA doesn’t have the same taunting rule as NFL
-
Don't understand how anyone can be unhappy with the first 25% so far. After the first couple minutes, pace and flow really evolved into a game we win at least half the time.
-
Embarrassingly negative game thread as usual. Guess nobody will be happy until we are annihilating opponents a la Gonzaga in the WAC.
-

You really think MU's press is effective?

Oso obviously needs a bit more strength as well.
But if his hands also improve. Boy is he gonna be tough to stop

NLW has a severe melanin allergy
-
We are getting great shots
-
You really think MU's press is effective?
Yes. If not in hard stats (steals) in the mental and physical toll it takes on teams over the course of a game.
-
MU does a good job of getting wide open 3 attempts and the shots aren't even close.
-
4 guards and Lewis
-
4 guards and Lewis
Very interesting lineup.
Getting Greg and Ellis some run.
-
C'mon Greg, that's what we pay you for
-
This is the lightest orange basketball I’ve ever seen since the balls we used to use in the driveway when they had no grip left
-
Yes. If not in hard stats (steals) in the mental and physical toll it takes on teams over the course of a game.
Ding ding ding. Not about steals, about pace. The presssure forced UW out of its rythym and allowed us to go on that run.
-

This isn’t the NBA. There are tradeoffs you have to live with. How many times have you cried yourself to sleep after a win this year.
Troll.
-
We are doing ok here. Need some open shots to fall or go inside again. But D has been decent. Let’s Go Marquette!
-

The floodgates could open once someone knocks a few down. You can't ask for a better look than these corner threes. Nerves? I don't get it. We should be splashing these open shots all over the place. But we have zero FT's this far.
-

Yes many of UW’s shot attempts have been rushed and contested. They don’t seem prepared.

I've been told FTs no matta
-
How about a shot fake??
-
LOL, Greg Gard "dancing"
-
Hell of a move by Justin
-
Good move there by JLew.
-
These refs will never call a foul on whisky underneath our basket when we shoot.
-
Having all our fouls result in free throws is less than ideal
-
Man, Johnny Davis....
-
Oso was 4-5’ from the 3pt line when he caught the ball and dunked without dribbling or traveling
-
Finally!! Let's go now!!
-
Somebody tell elliot that when shooting the ball needs to go down through the hoop. Not up from underneath.
-
Gotta stop Davis
Hell of a play between Justin and Oso. Let’s go.
-
Somebody tell elliot that when shooting the ball needs to go down through the hoop. Not up from underneath.
You're truly a joy.
-
YES!!! OSO!!! And we finally get a free throw.
-
Holy cow. The refs did call one
This could mean something
-
YES!!! OSO!!! And we finally get a free throw.
I was thinking the same thing. Aren't we something like top 10 in getting to the FT line in the nation, but first FT right now.
-
Light it up,Osa
-
Gotta stop Davis
Hell of a play between Justin and Oso. Let’s go.
If no one else goes off we're in great position to win this game. Davis is a terrific player.
-
Oso has played fantastic.
-
I may regret saying this but the Badgers are sh!t without Davis. He’s very good.
-
If no one else goes off we're in great position to win this game. Davis is a terrific player.
He should go pro. At half time.
-
If no one else goes off we're in great position to win this game. Davis is a terrific player.
We need to see some of these wide open 3's go in.
-
Fouls could become an issue but really like how we are playing right now.
-
OSO gif won't load
-
That's it JLew!! Go with force and power.
-
“Skaka’s Not Smart” Really, you stayed up all last night knowing you’d be in the front row on TV and that’s the best you could do?
-
Huge shot by Davison and then the MU turnover
-
How many generic traditionals does Wisconsin have stuffed on the bench?
-
MU dying at the end of the half
-
Brutal stretch there.
Need a quick run to end half
-
Easy help defense by UW leads to obvious steal. No help defense by MU leads to easy layup
-
Lewis looking frustrated
-
Osa needs a break. I guess OMP would be the third big today.
-
Good time-out. Sloppy. Stop over-dribbling East/West. Move the rock. That was a self-inflicted 7 point swing.
-
Johnny Davis.
My God.
-
Osa needs a break. I guess OMP would be the third big today.
Oops. Way to go Osa
-
SOB, Lewis couldn’t play better defense against Davis
-
Chance to go up 5, Lewis misses FT, ball puncher hits prayer 3 then we turn it over.
-
SOB, Lewis couldn’t play better defense against Davis
That's too good.
-
Mitchell isn't very good
-
Stevie. Cmon
-
Mitchell isn't very good
LOL. Oh, eeyore..... you're adorable.
-
That was a really bad last 2 minutes by MU.
-
Bad end to half but overall down 3 at half is fine.
Try and limit Davis a bit. Make a few of the open 3s. Got a chance
-
Mitchell isn't very good
Why are you the way that you are?
-
Morsell should have kept it until the end there. Oh well. They hung in there for a half.
Regardless of how you play in the first half, you need to play a good second half to win unless you are up 20.
-
Why are you the way that you are?
Why can't Mitchell dribble?
-
Should have had a high ball screen there at the end to initiate the play.
-
Hopefully, MU’s tendency to play much better 2nd halves means a big victory today.
-
JLew has to relax and let it come,and where is Kur?
-
JLew has to relax and let it come,and where is Kur?
Kur had two early fouls

2 fouls on Kur kept him on the bench
-
Why can't Mitchell dribble?
Why is every post of yours absurdly negative?
We all know but let's see you admit it.
-
Terrible last play there but we have come from behind before.
-
Why can't Mitchell dribble?
Why can’t you come up with an intelligent take?
-
Hopefully, MU’s tendency to play much better 2nd halves means a big victory today.
So.... hopefully the pace is taking a toll on Wiscy.
-
Decent half with an ugly finish. Shaka needs to get Lewis to realize that Marques Haynes he's not.
-
So.... hopefully the pace is taking a toll on Wiscy.
. One can hope

5 quick points:
1) We're in solid shape to win this game
2) The D and D-Glass have been pretty good.
3) Tip your cap to Davis.
4) 8 turns is inexcusable and have been self-inflicted.
5) We desperately need one of our top three guards to score the ball and hit some open looks.
* Give Oso a lot of credit.
-
Morsell will take over in the 2nd half.
-
Johnny Davis is the best player on the floor. Need our stars to step up. MU is winning the boards so far.
-
Morsell will take over in the 2nd half.
Really?
When was the last dominant half Morsell had?
He's been AWOL for a while after the nice start to the season
-
Up four three minutes to go.
Kolek off foot turnover
Lewis turnover
Then Mitchell turnover at shot clock.
MU had 20 turnovers last two games, 8 today. Whisky has three. Not good.
Greg Elliott came in, missed wide open three, lost Davis for a three made, then missed a layup by putting it almost thru the basket’s underside. He was soon after benched.
Surprised close considering MU jacking up threes, but that has been a Shaka style. Hope some drop and limit turnovers.

Close in spite of turnovers. I'll take it. Wear em down in the second half and hit some shots
-
They don't have a guy who can go shot for shot with Davis. That's what worries me in a close game. And the FT line.
They've played well enough, but the lapses in focus have been at the worst times. Not optimistic, but would love to be wrong.

These are good takes. Keep playing D and cut down on the TOs and we will be fine.

Best player by a grand canyon size margin.
Even as a freshman, he never looked panicked and knew what he was doing.
-

Literally our last game.
Does it hurt your little internet ego to admit you were wrong about Shaka (and only 8 games in no less!)
Awwww we’re all cwying for u :(
-
We are keeping it close with a nationally ranked team on their floor
-
Literally our last game.

No kidding, he started on a personal 7-0 run coming out of halftime in the last game

Take that positivity out of here 😉

MU beat one good team and then a bunch of cupcakes. Better than losing to bad teams, but nothing to get excited about.
Let's see what Shaka comes up with at half. Maybe he can suit someone up who can actually shoot the basketball?

Love the goalpost shift. Honestly, why don't you just go root for someone else if your University and it's coach disgust you so much?
-
These are good takes. Keep playing D and cut down on the TOs and we will be fnie.
Wisconsin is only shooting 35% and is up three which is somewhat concerning. I actually don't mind Davis having a big game if we limit the rest of their team. But we're going to have to find a way to hit some open shots and get to the FT line more. Personally, I think we're more talented and that's not because I'm biased. We desperately need Morsell, Jones, or Kolek to score the ball in the 2nd half.
-

You think a 7-0 run against a dreadful cupcake is notable? If that floats your boat, go for it, I guess.
-

Awwww sorry to hear how sad you are about it all, guy!
I’ll tell the team to start making some 3s - just for you!
-
Morsell will take over in the 2nd half.
Rather hope he can lock Davis down second half. OSO / Lewis taking over on offense with some 3's falling would lead us to a win.
-
One issue MU had is the post looks MU got were often too deep, the mid range shot is there if MU continues to look for it.
-

Defense falls under the phrase “taking over” in my lexicon.

I don't think this is fair. We beat three pretty good teams.

No goalpost shift. Many games vs non-cupcakes left to be played.
Nothing has happened yet to change my opinion that he wasn't a good hire.
-

Regardless of how you play in the first half, you need to play a good second half to win unless you are up 20.
This has also been a second half team all year
-
Morsell with two good moves but nothing to show for it
-
Wow, great pass.
-
KURRRRR!!!!!
-
No goalpost shift. Many games vs non-cupcakes left to be played.
Nothing has happened yet to change my opinion that he wasn't a good hire.
Huge goalpost shift:
1. You asked “when was the last time Morsell took over in a second half”
2. I responded “last game” in which he had a 7-0 run
3. You aren’t accepting that response because it was a cupcake - even though you had no such caveat in your original post
You lose.
-
BAM!!! DM!!! Let's go now!!
-
WOW JLew
-
Wow JL.
-
KABOOM!!!
-
Our fouls are a killer.
-
Ugh. Bad defense and unlucky bounces don’t help
-
Mental mistakes are really hurting us. Very unfortunate.
-
After literally DECADES of flopping and whining for calls, how do refs still fall for the Badgers crap?
-
brutal near steal but a 3
-
Time for Lewis to take over.
Also, this pace absolutely favors Marquette over the balance of the half
Also, Davis is getting a star whistle and a half. Dude gets a call whenever he gets bumped in a game thats mostly letting them play
-
Fouls will be an issue.
UW has figured out the press.
-
After literally DECADES of flopping and whining for calls, how do refs still fall for the Badgers crap?
Yeah, the 2nd half has started out with the officials calling everything against MU, and swallowing their whistle when the badgers defend.
-
I think I might get Joplin in there.
-
No goalpost shift. Many games vs non-cupcakes left to be played.

It's true, Shaka's skin color and social views aren't likely to change.
-

Killing us right now. Were going to have to attack with far more intelligence. Our guards need to shot-fake.

Nolonger,
What is your problem?
-
That's fking bcrap.
-
Wall steps into Lewis and guess who gets the call
-
Can't stand Wisconsin, no fouls on them
-
That's fking bcrap.
Marquette with almost 3x the fouls of Wis? I'm not seeing it.
-
Absolute travel on Davis. Piases me off.
-
Nolonger,
What is your problem?
Marquette hired a liberal coach with too much skin color.
-
we are getting nothing offensively form our guards. morsell has to start finishing some plays or we lose
-
Yeah, the 2nd half has started out with the officials calling everything against MU, and swallowing their whistle when the badgers defend.
Right on cue. Wahl literally stepped into Lewis and jumped off him
Absolute travel on Davis. Piases me off.
Like I said, he's very good, but he's already getting a superstar whistle
-
Marquette with almost 3x the fouls of Wis? I'm not seeing it.
Outside of the charge on Lewis, MU’s fouls have been deserved.
-
This one is getting away.
Davis is by far the best player on the court.
-
We just need to shake it off. Critical to stay within range. Davis traveled then hooked.
-
Outside of the charge on Lewis, MU’s fouls have been deserved.
And do you also believe Wisconsin committed only 4 fouls in the first 25 minutes?
-
badger beat down seems imminent
-
Davis with the elbow push off to get the open shot
-
Pretty sure Davis traveled on both those last two plays. Most definitely more of a travel than the one they called in the beginning against Morsell.
-
And do you also believe Wisconsin committed only 4 fouls in the first 25 minutes?
They aren’t reaching. We are.
I guess we have gone back to blaming the ref mode here.
-
Need a time out. The zebras can't call a hook on JLew and not Davis. Inexcusable.
-
Call it both ways
-
Davis travels, pushes off, but sure yet another offensive foul on Lewis
-
They aren’t reaching. We are.
Cool non-answer.
-
Marquette hired a liberal coach with too much skin color.
Shaka is a winner!
-
keep whining about the refs
-
Need a cold shooting spell from them to help turn this around
-
Davis travels, pushes off, but sure yet another offensive foul on Lewis
It was an obvious one on Justin.
-
mitchell has been just awful
-
get mitchel out heez
-
WTF. Why? Get Joplin on the floor.
-
I love his future
But Stevie is a complete liability on offense right now.
While Davis is unstoppable
-
Completely lost our composure but we're not beating good teams if we can score from the perimeter.
-
And do you also believe Wisconsin committed only 4 fouls in the first 25 minutes?
At least you can blame the refs if they lose. Happens a lot around here. The refs against MU theory. Most of the calls have been correct.
Blame turnovers, jacking up threes and Davis playing like first team all American.
-
No choice but to bring back Kuath and Lewis. If they foul out, they foul out.
-
Over
-
Cool non-answer.
My intent was pretty obvious They are not calling bumps either way. They are calling reaches both ways.
-
Offensive foul on Wahl
-
not fun anymore. tip the cap. bucky making everything. MU not so much. keep it ub
nder 15 hopefully
-

Yep yep.
-

Those were huge momentum non calls. The Refs have a home whistle at this point. This will be tough sledding.
-
Davis is a great player. The badgers really don’t have much else. He’s really carried them.
-
I believe that is 4 loose balls/shots where MU played great defense and the ball dropped right to a Badger player leading to points. I’d prefer being pissed at MU not hustling vs not getting any lucky bounces
-
Certainly tip you cap to Davis but we're not playing close to the level we have shown vs West V and Ole Miss.
-
It’s almost as if calling plays for morsell doesnt work when he settles for midrange fade aways.
Blowing those possession cost them.
-

So many folks around here think pointing out bad officiating is "blaming the refs". There are lots of reasons MU is losing. The refs are one of them. There's nothing wrong with pointing that out.
-
Our success in this game is in the paint and at the rim. Why not focus on that?
-
They aren’t reaching. We are.
I guess we have gone back to blaming the ref mode here.
In all honesty, number 23 (Hepburn) for the Badgers is constantly reaching, often with his left hand completely crossing through and across the ball handler.
1st half was officiated fairly balanced. This half has been a bit of a joke.
But that isn't what is dictating the game right now. Davis is.
-
Davis is a great player. The badgers really don’t have much else. He’s really carried them.
Couldn't agree more.
-
Maybe it’s an Opposite Day and the 1st half was MUs good half
-
Johnny Davis is really good and we can't stop him. 1st legit NBA caliber player the Badgers have had since Kaminsky.
Reffs haven't been good but they're not the reason MU is behind.

We also can't make a shot other than JLew attacking the paint.

Yep. The Lewis call was correct, but the charge before wasn't and they aren't remotely calling it even. I don't think the refs have it out for Marquette, but it is more of the Madison home whistle BS we've seen against any team that enters the Kohl Center.
-

Well that point of view is wrong. Refs aren’t perfect but not close to a reason they are losing.
-
A well-guarded pull up 2 isn't the best option out of a time out.
-
Cam not having a good game,have to get points out of a starter

Sorry, Davis has hooked and pushed off at least 3 times-no call. Lewis hooks once and he is called. Refs suck!!!
k
!!!!!
-
Davis is on a different level.
We have to make the most of our possessions to have a chance .
-
Refs have been very good, very consistent.
-

Nonsense. Refs have been fine. So maddening that people constantly take that point of view here. It just isnt accurate.

5 year old throws tantrum
-
Refs have been very good, very consistent.
First half, absolutely agree. Second half, not so much
-
Cam not having a good game,have to get points out of a starter
none of our guards have been good, can't make a shot. jones and mitchell look like completely lost freshman
-
Johnny Davis is really good and we can't stop him. 1st legit NBA caliber player the Badgers have had since Kaminsky.
I think Davis is the first player Wisconsin has had that has a shot to be a good NBA player since Devin Harris.
-
Just damage control at this point. Don't get blown out.
-
I get the Zebra bashing but the fact is our guards are 4-23 and Davis has obviously been by far the best player on the floor. We lost our composure for no reason whatsoever but we're not losing because of the refs.
-
Well that point of view is wrong. Refs aren’t perfect but not close to a reason they are losing.
So blowing that Lewis charge didn't cost MU 2 points? Lewis would have missed the resulting wide open dunk, or if called on WI we would miss all free throws resulting from being in the bonus earlier? Come on. Don't be this dense.
MU is down 13. Some of that is the refs. A lot of it is Davis being LeBron today. Part of it is MU being unable to shoot from the outside.
-
Terrible lineup
-
Big shot by Kam. Maybe that wakes us up?
-
I changed the channel to NBA TV just in time to see Jae Crowder air ball a shot in a game replay of Suns vs. Warriors . Fitting

The problem is you and others expect perfection. They aren’t perfect. But people see imperfection only when it doesn’t benefit them.
They have been fine.
-
Turned this one off - first Shaka game I did this. Too bad it had to come against Wisconsin.
Congrats to Johnny Davis for beating MU. Any chance he goes pro this year?
Also, Morsell has disappeared.

Point out where I expected perfection.
-
Most frustrating thing for me, MU creates a turnover, immediately then commits a turnover.
-
This game is far from over. Need to pick up the intensity like that.
-
Told ya so.
-

-
Pretty sure that was a block by Kam
-

Because you anecdotally pointed out one bad call.
You aren’t very good at this.
-
When MU makes their shots it give them time to SetUp their defense.
-
Damn!!! Have to get that reb. Huge swing.
-
lewis turnover machine
-
Compare Johnny Davis as a freshman to Stevie Mitchell!
Mitchell is borderline awful. Horrible recruit.
-
Going to look at the upside of having Justin Lewis for all 4 years
-
Davis traveled again, shuffled his feet after the pump fake, just like Mitchell did. No call this time.
-
Wisconsin has six points off that same out of bounds play to the corner 3.
-
JFC. Get it to 8, can’t get the rebound. Davison another prayer 3 and another Lewis TO. Brutal.
-

I pointed that one out because you agreed with it. You and others have this weird problem where you think the refs are completely above reproach and can do no wrong. Pointing out their imperfections acknowledges their humanity. To believe the refs have a 0-point impact on every game is foolish.
-
Officiating has been fine. WI works for shots they can make. If the comment that Davis is all the Badgers have, it's a poor reflection on Shaka'a defensive approach if a one man team can pound you.
-

Davis gone after this year

Morsell again a non-factor when his team needs him.
And this is a freaking SENIOR.

He won’t be here next year.

Good point.
-
Was a nice drive and one by Greg. We need more of that .
-
This is Shaka, folks.
-
I think Whisky is shooting 70% in the 2nd half.
-
JFC. Get it to 8, can’t get the rebound. Davison another prayer 3 and another Lewis TO. Brutal.
We can call it a prayer, but they run that designed play for him on that shot. He has hit it consistently throughout his career, we just didn't defend it at all.
-
My daughter was on a 4x200m relay team that made State with Carter Gilmore’s older sister. That is the extent of my positive feelings for this Badger roster
-
Wow, recruiting players who can actually shoot the basketball?
Who knew?
-
Greg's defense is... not good.
-
Lewis really looks like he was coached by wojo. That needs to wear off a bit still.
-
Disappointed in our lack of poise. But remember this is literally our first road game.
-
Wow. Greg just standing there on that reb. WTF?
-
This is Shaka, folks.
7-2, 2 ranked losses on neutral and away floors, significantly overperforming expectations in year 1, and positioned to be at least a bubble team in the dance?
I’ll take more!
-
I appreciate his dedication to the program and all he’s fought through, but I don’t need to see much more Greg Elliott at this point. I’d rather those minutes go to someone who could use the experience.
-
That was horrible. No MU giy going for the rebound and Wisconsin gets a three. Ugh. Lazy.
-
Elliot just sucks on D. Brutal.
-
Greg's defense is... not good.
He's not exactly Gary Payton. :)
-
Say what you want about Gard, this is a well coached group as always.
-
Lewis really looks like he was coached by wojo. That needs to wear off a bit still.
just stop the garbage.
-
Gonna be frustrating to watch Wisconsin shoot under 30% from 3 in the next game or so.
-
I’m out. Erasing this one from the memory banks and moving on.

MU hasn't even gotten to the Big East competition yet.
The worst is yet to come.
-
Wisconsin has 43 points in 15 mins btw.
-
Some of this is just plain luck for Wisconsin but that happens when momentum is on your side. Clanked 3s and deflections leading to second chance points. It is what it is.
We got to 50 points!
-
MU hasn't even gotten to the Big East competition yet.
The worst is yet to come.
How small is your penis?
-
If our guys can’t hit threes, then practice on your own shooting threes and figure out another strategy. We fight for open shots and can’t hit. New a different plan
-
MU hasn't even gotten to the Big East competition yet.
The worst is yet to come.
Oh yeah? Got any stock tips? What’s the weather going to be on January 14th?
-
Say what you want about Gard, this is a well coached group as always.
And MU is not well coached.
As always since Buzz left.
-
We'll be alright but this was extremely disappointing. What the H happened to our defense in the 2nd half?
-
He won’t be here next year.
He believes he is Durant, because without an outside shooting touch, he has no NBA interest. That’s why he is shooting them and under Shaka system, that’s ok. Started year good from three, but bad lately. Shaka needs to post him more often.
Hope he stays around, right now he is best MU has.
Lewis has six turnovers and is 1 for 6 from three. Not good.
-
This is a mediocre 3 pt shooting team and yet we settle for quick 3’s a lot. Guys dribbling into traffic seems to be another strategy. Frustrating to see hints of Wojo in this game today.
-
MU hasn't even gotten to the Big East competition yet.

You are full of bullcrap
-
I cannot wait to see what Davison doesn't do in his career
-
Floppy swings elbows both ways--no call. But hey, refs have been correct all day. Bull shice.
-
Brutal... awful performance in 2d half
Giving up WAY TOO many points ...
I mean UW on pace for 90 !
Truly pathetic
-
Well, at least I hit on the over.
-
I cannot wait to see what Davison doesn't do in his career
I would take Davison on MU any day of the week. Has a lot of Diener in him.
-
This is MU basketball under Shaka, folks.
This is how seriously MU takes the biggest rivalry game of the year.
-
If Shaka is such a big time defensive coach, how the hell does Bucky score 90 points.
-
I would take Davison on MU any day of the week. Has a lot of Diener in him.
No he doesn’t
-
Why the team shoots so many 3s is beyond me. I knew it was gonna be a long year but somehow losing to UW feels like 2 or 3 losses.
-

He was exposed as a fraud at Texas and now his act is at MU.

I'd be curious to see their 2nd half stats. On pace for like 65 points in 20 mins??
-

Agreed. He had a few immature plays early in his career, but he seems like a good kid who plays with a lot of toughness.
-

If you could combine Elliott's offense and Mitchell's defense, I think you'd have a useful player.
If you could combine Elliott's defense and Mitchell's offense, I think you'd have me, an unathletic guy who hasn't played in several years.

what do you want to happen? are we supposed to call for shakas firing 8 games in? who do u want? this isnt a top teir destination school sorry. stop being a fan then cuz hes not going anywhere soon. can u at least giv the guy a year or two u clown
-

Ball punching, tripping, and sticking your foot under a guy coming down on a rebound are not "a few immature plays".
-

It hasn’t been a problem this game. Not one bit.
-
Bad, bad performance. Very disappointed in our pace of play and sloppy handling of the ball. I can accept aggressive TO’s, but no slow pace and self inflicted. IMO, we need Kur on the floor a lot more minutes moving forward.

Nope, just a douchebag.

I wanted Moser. Shaka underperformed at Texas with actual freaking talent on that team. He brought in junk to MU. You could go into the rec plex gym at noon and find guys in their 50's playing pick-up ball who can shoot better than this.
-
An accurate douchebag.
You'll disappear soon enough.

Texas was a three seed last year.
And did what in the tourney as that 3 seed?

Jones and Ellis are quick but need time. Your point is well taken though. Kolek doesn't have that great and is our primary creator. I've advocated for a burner for many, many, years.
-
Some of us can think and analyze objectively. You’ve proven you cannot.
Diener was a stud PG who shot over 41% from 3 over his career, averaged 7 assists in his last 2 years, and could distribute or score in huge bunches.
Davison has shot 30% from 3 this year, is under 35% for the majority of his career, and has been a single digit career scorer most of his career. He also barely averages 2 assists per game.
Other than being a "tough" white guy, what of Diener does Davison have? Diener had an edge and attitude and was an assassin, thats why opposing teams hate him. But he was never dirty or had a nationwide reputation for it. Thats why teams hate Davison, not cause he's a killer with the ball.
-

Get a grip, turd.
-

I'm high on Mitchell, I think he will be a good one.

Doesn’t matter. Broth bring toughness, leadership, and passion to the court, something we do not have at this time.
I don’t care that he’s a Badger, I’d love to have him at MU.
-
This is the correct take.
His social stances are idiotic, but I don't give a crap what skin color the guy has. A white guy with the same social stances is equally pathetic.
I just wish his coaching ability was more competent than his politics
-

Your prediction of a double digit win didn't work out. This could be very rough stretch. Need more discipline, less turnovers, less threes. But that's Shaka's style, aggressive, run and shoot ,etc. Kur is the second coming of Theo, human foul machine.
Last three minutes of first half killed them. Up four and then three turnovers and nothing.
-
Doesn’t matter. Broth bring toughness, leadership, and passion to the court, something we do not have at this time.

It's going to be hilarious when Shaka's act has worn thin and the fanbase gets ansty (which will happen) and calls for his firing will be met with "racist" accusation drivel.
We all know it's coming, it happened at Texas.

Like what I am seeing from EE. Hope we can see more of him in future games.

+1.
Travis Diener, Brad Davison, Aaron Craft, Greg Paulus, Eric Devendorf, Grayson Allen. Pretty much all the same player.

Find another team, d-bag.

Not even close. You squatted on this bad take all year and now you’re trying to do a victory lap after a ranked loss on the road?
This is college basketball buddy teams don’t go undefeated. It’s a loss. We actually won the Bucky game a lot under Wojo and look how that worked out.
-
Why do you feed and answer that troll, NLW ??? If everyone puts him on IGNORE he will go away! ! ! Instead he gets "quoted" and we ALL have to see his nonsensical Drivel ! ! ! Please put him on IGNORE ! ! ! 8-)

It's an accurate take and I'll wait for you to keep talking nonsense after the BE season is over.
And I wasn't a fan of Wojo at all, but Shaka is a worse coach. The talent he brought in is just not good.

Embarrassingly, no.

I’ll like leaders at the point. Both are facilitators but can go off when needed. The difference is Travis had to his last two seasons, Davison has a better supporting cast. Markus was a gunner who didn’t play Dso that isn’t an apt comparison (though both are big time into FCA so there is something in common.

Markus was a pure scorer who had to play PG, undersized and learned to play some D, but most energy was spent on offense. Travis did and still does so many things (TBT) that don't even show in box score. I mean Travis won us the game for us to be able to get to FF. Travis never punched any player below belt.

Davison isn’t a their PG or a PG in general, Hepburn is. And for a “facilitator” he has none of the stats to back it up. You’re literally creating some narrative about him as a player that is backed up by nothing but fantasy.

Agreed. He should be given 2 more years after this year at least
But he needs to start landing some big time players. Most of the current kids are 3 star or lower
-
I'm trying to recall all the times Travis punched opposing players in the nuts, stuck his foot under them in an attempt to roll an ankle, intentionally tripped them, or repeated faked charges by throwing himself at the floor.
But, he is white, which is the most important thing for you.

Good God that was an ass whuppin'...where the hell was the "vaunted" Shaka defense? Game, set, and match Floppy McNutpuncher...
-
Difficult venue for first road game with a team very much a work in progress. Davis made some tough shots, but that 2nd half D was garbage. I think I’d start Oso and Mitchell, along with Jones, Morsell and Lewis. Base the bench rotation on match-ups. Try it vs K-State. If successful, repeat vs UCLA.

Start Mitchell who is struggling now, and Jones shooting 30% from 3. And no ball handler and distributor of Kolek and Morrell?
Don't think that would work.

Kolek isn’t a ball handler, it would appear. Shooter? Bad rotation on his shot. Let the freshmen Mitchell and Jones run. PT might be the cure. If not, we’ll go your way.

I don't think putting that pressure on freshmen against experienced teams coming up is a good recipe. Kolek is a good distributor, that seems to be his main role and take 3's when open and they start falling we good.

He’s averaging almost 6 assists, most games has around 2 TOs. That’s the kind of person you want to have the ball in their hands :o
