I have historically been a fan of his.  But the last couple years his commentary has been a bunch of his canned phrases.

Oso has got to be ready for the ball at the free throw line and able to score that. What a pass by Jop.


And Omax has got to hit wide open corner 3s. Its the easiest shot in the game outside a damn paint lay up or dunk.

Joplin with some awful minutes. Nice offensive rebound, but otherwise out of control offensively and out of position defensively.
Title: Re: MU/Purdue Game Thread
Post by: PGsHeroes32 on November 15, 2022, 07:53:58 PM
The good news is we are getting good shots literally every time down the floor

Bad news is outside of Kam every single outside shot is a total brick.

Keep running good offense and hit some shots.

Well, those are great shots for some players. Not the ones who are getting them.

Anyway, get rid of the charge call. In all of basketball. It’s not defense. It’s trash.

I don't mind Shaka letting him get multiple opportunities...not yanking him after a few missed shots.  But yielding the loose ball and trying to do too much off the dribble..enough for a half.

Need to stop launching bricks and keep getting it into the middle. Edey is on roller skates when we do that.

Also Edey could have like 4 over the backs right now, he has 1.

I don't know how good Wrightsil will be at the end of the year.     I have seen enough transfers into MU start slow and finish strong to know there is no f-ing way I am giving up on him on November 15.     After he had knee surgery.     And missed practice after getting an injection in the surgically repaired knee.     

How often does this board make the same idiotic, over reactive mistake.    It is honestly embarrassing.

We've been great on the glass, taking care of the ball, and pretty solid defensively.  Again, it's about buckets.  We need someone other than Kam to make some perimeter shots.

We have not got a lot inside.  So need to hit 3s and yes someone else needs to step up.  Need Jop to hit a few.   I think Purdue will feed Edey the whole second half.  Hopefully we have a plan.  Marquette Pretty tough so far   Go MRquette!

Marquette is going to be a bad 3 pt shooting team.

The form on each shot varies with too many guys.  One guy had a wide, wide open 3 and so much time to shoot it and his elbow flared out to the side and you knew it was a brick as soon as he released it.

A game they could have won and probably should have won. Biggest question mark for me is how they stay away from long scoring droughts. On a positive note, they get a lot of open looks and I think that will be trend all season.

I really wish Ross had made that shot from the corner with about ten to go. Great look and thought he made it. That goes in, we likely win the game.

I’ve resorted to sitting on the floor.  If this doesn’t help MU, I’ve got nothing else to offer.

Post of the thread.

It always feels like we miss wide open shots while the teams we play make all the tough ones.

Oh well. Good game plan, execution faded. Just gotta hope the team gets better each game.

Goose, I mentioned the drought problem and taking good looks  in a thread yesterday and it somehow led to an attack on short people.  There was a time in the game where we drove it into the teeth of their D 4 straight times.  Stop and pop from 6 feet or take the floater.

Every game they have scoring droughts usually by chucking threes.
Two points in last 7 minutes.  Believe 1 for 15 from field.  That’s brutal.

Tw points for final 8 minutes, is that even possible.


And yet I was ridiculed relentlessly for pointing this out yesterday. Cannot just launch indiscriminately when we need buckets.

I thought Joplin made some tough shots.

Kam is a great shooter when he takes shots in the flow of the offense - but he does too much chucking.

Shooters shoot. Kam was hitting at the beginning of the game, and kept shooting. Joplin wasn’t hitting at the beginning of the game. They both kept shooting, and results switched for both.

Hard game.

Again, this team struggles to score in the half-court.  If Mitchell and OMax can't score it's a serious problem.

Especially since they were the only two whoi could make a shot.

Muggs it is not personal, people like to joke around. As for the offensive droughts, get used to it. Shaka is a D minded coach and up tempo, sone times that type of play will lead to offensive droughts, specially if our point guard is having a hard time shooting from the outside. Kolek hits 2 of those 3's and game would have been different down the stretch. Kolek is great and I love how he plays but needs to be a threat from outside else, teams will adjust like they did last year.

Yeah. This is Markus all over again. Does Kam take some aggressive shots? Sure. What’s the alternative though? A tentative OMax trying to straight line drive into a waiting 7’4” guy? Well…

I'm with you wades. I'm generally ok with Kam's boldness, though I agree with Shaka that some of his "from outer space" shots might need to be reconsidered.

As always, our outside shooting would likely improve if we were consistently more effective at slashing and forcing the D to compress.

Purdue shot 16 Free Throws in the 2nd Half. Marquette shot 0 Free Throws in the 2nd Half
Until Joplins at the end.

One team attacked the hoop. The other shot jumpers.

I want Kam to shoot a lot. That doesn’t include shots 5 feet outside the three point line with 20 seconds on the shot clock. I think we (and he) can do better.

It's sickening watching another poor shooting Marquette team. Kiosk looks the same as last year, a left handed Driver but he can't score.
