Time to bounce back.

Time to bounce back.
Time to get the bench Big East ready

Oh....I thought it was 7 Central. Whoops. Good point Dr. B.
-
Time to get the bench Big East ready
Hm, I agree. And while the bench will* get more play today - I doubt LIU is going to help them get BE ready.
* they better!
-
I'd like to see Wrightsil and Jones the Younger have a productive game.

I hope they cover or someone should get fired

I see they lost to Utah by 40. Clearly we should bludgeon them.

Studio host now. The rest is sarcasm

Would be slightly surprised if MU plays a good game tonight. Has trap game written all over it. Though trap game in this case is “only win by 15” vs actually losing the game.

He has the charisma of a door. Strange hire.

I was skewered on Scoop for positing the Exhibition games and Cupcake games NOT at The Al are good prep for the young guys. The CMU game was a good gadget game, the bench played great. They were MIA against Purdue while Purdue's youngins put their earlier stinkers behind them.
Small point but valid despite the Scooper Intelligencia thoughts.

Who is this announcer? He has not prepared himself at all. Good grief.

Trent Kolek?
LOL :P :P

Telly Hughes? Wasn't he a baseball reporter?

This is the worst play by play I’ve heard since I tuned in for a high school game on YouTube when Dawson Garcia played for my buddy in MN.
-
These blues look more turquoise than they did in the past.
-
Nice spin and finish from Kam.
-
Keep attacking the rim at will.
-

Rocky and Topper on the call.
-
Oso will develop a face up J imo.
-

N7 game.
-
Dumb shot by Sean. Why launch 5 seconds after entering the game?
-
Oso will develop a fece up J imo.
Unfortunate typo?

OOOPS. Ty.
-
N7 game.
Ah that explains it.
-
Now OMax decides to show up…
Just kidding, kind of
-
Turquoise? Gimme a break.
-
Maybe Wrightsil shows us something?
-

-
Man...Shaka needs to have a little chat with Sean.
-
Maybe Wrightsil shows us something?
I’d rather he didn’t just show us the dribble of his own foot
-
I know we need to give transfers time to settle in, but I dont think many of our transfers have looked as bad as Wrightsil has early this season. Hope he turns it around soon because we'll probably need him.
-

Touche.
-
I’d rather he didn’t just show us the dribble of his own foot
Next Cain
-
FS2 just showed us losing to Northwestern. Smh.
-
We should be at +25 at the half.. Minimum.
-
Silly comment by Bardo about Rod Strickland. "Best finisher underneath the rim in NBA history." Oh....okay.
-
Make a damn free throw.
-
Whistle fest.
-
Obvious hook by TK and completely unnecessary.
-
We should be at +25 at the half.. Minimum.
We are technically losing right now.
-
Sean needs to learn some D.
-
reminds me of a De Paul game...we play down to our opponent
-
My goodness....why Kam??
-
we shoot from 1/2 court now
-
Someone needs to remind kam hes not required to shoot wherever he catches the ball. Dribbling is an option lol
-
Oso with a superb all around half.
-
Someone needs to remind kam hes not required to shoot wherever he catches the ball. Dribbling is an option lol
Well Shaka allows it
-
Wondering why Chase Ross hasn't gotten more tick this half. Felt like he was in for a minute then got yanked. Must have missed an assignment or something
-
Well Shaka allows it
Would love to see him shot fake more often, get into the lane and ball reverse. That would get the ball moving at lighting speed.
-
I know it's only 3.5 games into his college career, but I don't see anything in Jones that makes me think he is a BE player.
-
A lot of launching after one pass. Move the freaking basketball.
-
last minute has been a brick fest
-
Some ugly 3’a going up. We’re not growing.
-

It really early. He hasn't figured things out yet but there's a learning curve.
-
I found the raw footage of Gold's recruiting video before it got edited.

I tend to think I'm overly negative at times but wtf are with these posts? We've doubled up their score and aren't playing bad by any means...

Right. There’s absolutely nothing to take from this game. But if I wasn’t watching and just read this thread I’d think we were in a tight one.
-
No words can describe that shot attempt from ZW. Pass the fking basketball.
-
Sit Gold and get in his grill.
-

He has been playing alot, along with Sean Jones and Wrightsill. More Ross, less Wrightsell please.
Ben Gold hit his first three pointer few games ago and now has missed his last ten. Ten……
In Shaka’s system, no problem, just keep them threes going, soon they will fall. Keep on throwing them up.
LIU terrible, their starters may foul out. Good experience for bench as Shaka will soon cut rotations before BE play.
-
for a team with no shooters we like to chuck 3's. if this is the offense i'm not sure why our coach doesn't recruit some guys that can actually shoot
-

Seriously need to win by close to 30 else not good
-
Kam's dribble is too high.
-
Shaka treats Kam like Wojo treated Markus. But Markus was a First Team All American flame thrower while Kam is maybe a Honorable Mention All Big East player in 2 years?
-
We're on our way, win by 40
-
It’s obviously not gonna matter in this game, but they’re taking way too many threes. This is the kind of game where you should work on ball movement.

Completely agree. I also don’t really get why Oso is bringing the ball up so much.
-
still have some hope stevie omax and kolek can be at least decent 3pt shooters
-

But this the Shaka game plan and has been since his arrival at MU. Average over 30 attempts per game. If they hot, they can win. Joplin saved them from blowout from Purdue with his hot second half. Right now 4 for 16.
LIU is brutally bad, maybe worst team they have played in years.
-
Oso is the only player that stands to me as clearly improved through 3.5 games. Can't wait to see him the next few years.
-

Yeah, I know. I certainly hope I am absolutely wrong. Right now he looks like a guy on roller skates with a rocket strapped to his back.

They're awful. True dat.

So...with a 29pt lead, why are starters in?
-

We need to win by more than that
-
That’s not really a flop. It’s just bad defense. But there was clearly contact between the two players.
-

Some people know how to bring the #jackhammer
-
Kam has been pretty inconsistent to start off the season. We're gonna need him to be more efficient and do more than streak shooting.
-

Nice
-
Stevie hasn't taken a shot?
-

So with 15 minutes to go the scrubs are in. Hmmm... mods. 🤦
-
Wrightsil can handle a bit.
-
Was that a charge??
-
Was that a charge??
That was the call. In fact it was such an efficient call the whistle may have been before actual contact
-

Something to do with a video about hyenas.
-
It's apparent Jones took time at half to read Scoop and was inspired by my comment to improve his play. Just another Scoop service.
-

Wait, bench guys are scrubs? I thought we were supposed to be 10 deep, and you wanted playing time for bench guys.
-

Sean or Kam?
-

Good point. Shaka probably sent them back to the locker room to watch again before sending them into the game.
-
We put all 5 starters in up 32?
-

Blackheart will tell you the scrubs need more experience watching the starters play at the FF.
-

Trying to move up a seed line
-

We've been swapping between starting 5 and bench players all game, its not like we've been riding the starters hard...
-
Get them out . NOW. :)
-

In the Gagdet Game at The Al they were bench players. At Purdue, they were scrubs. COLE

We're up 35 though vs a horrific team with 9 mins left
-
Itejere time?

Really worried that Shaka is starting to go bald like dgies
-
Itejere time?
Do we need to get it to 45-50?
-
Clearly someone explained NET to Shaka in the offseason.
-

Elon can hook him up with an excellent hair plug guy
-

Good. Was a much better coach when he didn’t have hair. Grinder back then.

It seems like the whole purpose of scheduling this team is to get live action, oh and a win. Might as well keep playing everyone to get their conditioning up.

Not that LIU was ever going to be a great opponent. But missing one of their main guards isn't helping the competition level.
-
Time for the walk-in’s.
-
Only 8 assists for Kiosk.
Disappointing.

We didn't schedule is part of Ft Myers tournament, scheduled by them.

I did not know that. Oh well, I’m just going to stew over the fact that Omax couldn’t make one more stinking shot to be 12-12
-

Yeah, his 12 ppg would have cut lead to 31. LIU would lose to several Junior College teams.
Good court experience for the young MU players, that’s about it for this matchup.

Speaking of Ammo...this is a game in which he would have excelled.

Long live Trent! LOL :o :o

I was wrong. Impressed with how they looked tonight, even against a bunny.
-
MU 11 for 35 from three.
With: Kam Jones 1 for 8
Joplin. 2 for 7
Sean Jones 1 for 5
Total for them: 4 for 20

Shaka figuring out NET? Did you watch the games last season?

Have you ever understood sarcasm about leaving starters in a blowout?
edit: but since you made me look (at Kenpom, not NET, since it's not published early season), last year against cupcakes...MU started 87, after beating SIUe dropped to 90, after beating New Hamshire dropped to 95...skip ahead...entered playing N Ill. as 78, dropped to 83 after the win, then finally up to 78 after beating Jackson State. Overall, scoring margin didn't help out computer #s early - so I'll take this as a win this year. #'s have improved after every game.

Reading this thread I'd have thought MU was struggling to win. Instead we coast to a 37 point victory and some Scoopers in meltdown mode. WTAF?

Joplin is shooting 46% so far. Kam needs better shot selection. Wasn’t expecting much shooting from Jones.

I think we need 3 guys to shoot the trifecta well to beat the best teams. O-Max looked pretty good tonight.

So I suppose you're in the .500 record ceiling for this team? That would suck.
