Tonight's #mubb vs No. 4 UCLA game will begin on FS2 but will move over to FS1 at halftime after Cincinnati-Xavier finishes up. So if you are either a Bruins or Golden Eagles fan you are hoping for no OT at the Cintas Center.

This could get ugly.  We're bricking like crazy and this pace favors UCLA.  Shaka needs to adapt and we have to play more disciplined half-court basketball.  Kur has been great defensively but that's the only positive thus far.  And our h-c defense is much better than our transition D.  We better get it together because we're in imminent danger.

Exactly right.  They seemingly have zero understanding of a good and bad shot or the definition of patience.  But even scarier is this pace today favors UCLA.  You have to adapt to your personnel.  When you launch bad shots, and deep shots, it leads to easier looks for UCLA on offense.  We've missed open looks but we're still taking quick shots.

Just atrocious shooting, and at home. Looks like UCLA likes their home court advantage on our floor. There is no excuse for out terrible, terrible shooting. Shaka better recruit some players that can shoot. 1 for 14 from 3. If these guys were recruited because they fit Shakas system, then that must mean that his system  does not include making shots.

There were those who said keep on shooting….

Last five games, including this half. 3 for 30 from three. Pathetic.

Shaka’s style. Run and gun, threes hopefully fall.

Side note, Markus Howard saw first significant minutes tonight and had 16 in first half. Outscoring entire MU team tonight😄

Yup…..the famous word.

But that is what Shaka brings.  Press, hopefully they don’t pass over the top and score
Offensive scheme is work around and pass to open guy for three. They go in, they go in. 

Wish it was on the national tv, maybe some shooter recruit is out there saying, man this team likes to run and gun, but they can’t gun.  I can help them there.

So if you were coaching what would you draw up our first five possessions of the 2nd half?  Will Elliott be our there?  We have looked rushed on 85% of our possessions.  If we can get this under 10  somehow there is some hope.

That shooting was comical. 1/15 from three to start? And a lot of open looks. Even start 4/15 and we're right there now. UCLA didn't play all that well. Not poor, but nothing special, we were just that bad. Here's hoping it isn't worse in the second.

Huge 5 minutes.

Get it down under 10 and this game is forgotten by the computers

Do we have a sports psychologist on the staff?  I think every one of Kolek's threes has hit the backboard.

It’s infuriating when someone jacks up a three and everyone else watches and doesn’t crash the boards at all…

WTF Kolek

That’s 3 for his last 31 from three.  Under 10%….

Last three games, 4 points and 10 turnovers.  Good assists, but that doesn’t even come close to making up poor play.

Our rebounding fundamentals are atrocious but you are correct sir, zero tenacity on the offensive glass.

45 points.  Something seriously wrong.

I’m concerned that Kolek doesn’t have the talent to consistently play at this level.

He doesn't. And shouldn't be on the court. His awful shooting and turnovers hurt us big time.

Think about this scoopers for a second.  And they have scored on a lot of them.  We weren't winning this game but had we got it under 10 at least they would have to earn the W.

Agreed.  This I do not understand,   And it would take one time out and talk ftom Shaka that you crash the boards or you crash the bench.

I think UCLA is starting to look tired.  Here’s where we make our run.

UCLA was beatable tonight. They didn’t play well at all.

I honestly don't think UCLA played particularly well minus the one stretch we allowed them to get out in transition.  Jaquez played well but that's about it.

Greg played very well. Hopefully this will earn him more playing time in Big East games. We will need him.

Agrees.  Lose to the #4 team in the country by 11 when MU had a tremendously crappy game means if some shots fell when we were 2 for 15 from 3, we could have won.  Would have fired us up.   Winnable against the #4 team is a takeaway that could help us later.

I hear ya but essentially the game was over after 15 mins.  It was 33-10 and  they didn't really need to focus much after that.

Dude, they had a rough time getting to Milwaukee and Cody Riley did not play. They did not play that well but the outcome was never in doubt.
