Looks like Gardner can have a big night tonight based on the mis match

[PGsHeroes32]

Defense is palying pretty darn well. Offense looks a little shaky again. DJO needs to turn it up.

DJO seems to be out of his coma.

DJO seems to be out of his coma.

Hasn't got the shot going but hes a lot more in control aside from the one fast break Meier swiped off him. I know DJ will be fine.

DJO is out of his coma, Gardner looks like a beast...unfortunately Jae thinks he's a 3 point sniper. This team needs to stop chucking up the 3 and run some offense based on dumping it into Gardner. Buzz gets them to do that and we'll see a huge FT gap between us and UWM.

Spoke a little early.

[PGsHeroes32]

Our offense is a real problem right now. No consistency. Its either charge, miss 3 or turnover(other than charge). FEED THE OX.

If UWM could hit a shot, we'd be in trouble.

[VanderBabyBlue]

DJO is always so out of control.  With his ability, he'd be unstoppable if he had ANY kind of head on his shoulders.

I turned the game on.   During the first 8 possessions I saw, 7 turnovers by all 4 of our guards and one possession with an actual shot, a missed floated by Vander.    On the defensive end, I just watched 5 offensive rebounds by UWM.    I don't want to watch anymore.

This team needs ballhandlers and dribbling lessons.

TC tightened the players up on dribbling low, and these kids dribble high.

Frustrated at the sloppy ballhandling, TOs and out of control play.

What amazes me is the inability of MU's guards to penetrate the zone.


EDIT:  Tony Allen's brother is a real hustler. I like his game so far.

Davante...Davante...Davante...

[tower912]

Foul trouble all over.    Juan and JJ going to have to play by default.    Possibly the worst 6 minute stretch I have seen a Buzz team play.   And that isn't a zone.   It just shows a lack of movement right now. 

[esotericmindguy]

What a awful tech call.

[GGGG]

These refs are calling this like a girls middle school game.

And tower is right...UWM played zone for maybe two possessions.

[real chili 83]

Was that last shot really set up for Vander?

[PGsHeroes32]

I am dead serious when I said our team needs to stop drinking before games. It is the only explanation for the last two games.

[DCWarriors04]

We're either out of control, in love with the three, or lacking any sort of idea as to what we want to do out there.

[VegasWarrior77]

Very sloppy first half.  I have bad feelings about the BEast!

[DCWarriors04]

Was that last shot really set up for Vander?

I doubt it...he probably felt like needed to chuck up a 3 since he hadn't yet tonight...and everyone else has been chucking them up and clanking iron.

Gotcha.

But two straight games without effective paint penetration is going to affect what this MU team is built on: paint touches and drawing fouls leading to FT discrepancy.

When teams have negated our fast breaks by getting back quickly...when teams have forced us to run a half court offense...we have not been at our best.

I fear this game could get ugly when UWM shoots the three with confidence.

He's painful to watch.

Wonderful. Continuation of Monday night when they were crap don't stink zombies.

Btw, Derrick Wilson not playing? Don't see him listed in any box score or gamecast.


EDIT: Nevermind. Just found him on one. Hate when some channels don't list certain guys.

[real chili 83]

77, you are dead on.  If UWM starts hittin' 3's, and we don't change, it could get ugly quick

[VegasWarrior77]

Buzz used Derrick for spot defensive purposes - subbing for Junior and then coming out right away.
