Deserved to lose

[NickelDimer]

Perhaps they needed a little more in them then....  This is pro sports - they are not playing for juice boxes and oranges after the game.

🥱

This is a bullsh*t take. These kids literally left everything they had on the floor.

Yes they did...and lost. To a team with 4 portal players, that swept us this year. Ship needs to be righted, and not looking salvageable.

Honestly, you're just such a complete moron it's hard to comprehend.

I'm worried about the roster as currently constructed next year. Plenty of raw talent, but very little consistency and zero reason to believe the physicality flaws of the last two games (and really the season) won't be persistent.

Not so fast about "plenty of raw talent".

they did. Played with heart and emotion. That's not in dispute.

more bravado. Saying here what you would not in person. Atta boy, Vander!

Yes?

[79Warrior]

I looked at the boxscore.  6 guys scored.  Your post is as good as our FT shooting.

4 points off the bench is brutal

4 points off the bench is brutal

After 2 pts off the bench against UConn.  The future is so bright we need to wear shades. 

[tower912]

Agreed.

I was told that nobody should be concerned about Xavier, so that's one sure win.

I haven't bet on MU in a long time. I'll be hammering them Thursday.

Why?  Honest question.

Exactly. Hard to acknowledge that and say they deserved to lose.

LOL. Dork.

Wouldn't hesitate to say it in person, Biff. 

Looking forward to you sending me another creepy DM for the opportunity.

[BM1090]

Why?  Honest question.

Fair question.

Because I trust them to continue to play like they have the last two weeks. And that'd be good enough to beat Xavier. We played arguably our worst game last time and if we had 3 more minutes would have won that game.

And X, while playing well, is sneaking by teams we've been rolling. I think X was playing better than us up until two weeks ago. We're playing better now. They can definitely beat us but I like the matchup.

You're a manboy.

[wiscwarrior]

There's nothing worse than beating yourself.  And we simply did not finish the job or handle the pressure.  No moral victories. Very, very, upsetting. 

Just my opinion, but I think this is an unfair comment. Especially with this MU team. They fought and lost. What? If they make 3 more free throws and win, they didn't deserve to win?

We didn't get it done when it mattered.  One of the most frustrating things about this team is that there's no consistency whatsoever outside of Kam getting his points.  I still think we have the personnel to make the 2nd week but we're not playing at that level.  We've seen games where Ross can go off or Jop.  We've seen games where Mitchell gives us an efficient 15-18 and Zaide and RP drill triples.  Ben has had two very solid games this week.  What we have not seen is our guys collectively playing well on the offensive end and more to the point making open shots.
