Wiscy thoughts
« on: December 06, 2014, 01:27:12 PM »
1.  MU fought it's ass off, but.....
2.  Wiscy is good. 
3.  The zone is solid, but...
4.  Bo knows how to beat a zone.
5.   MU attacked, but...
6.   Wiscy contested everything in close.
7.   Not going to criticize anyone because everyone fought.
8.   Sometimes, size, skill, and experience matter.
9.   Luke is eligible the next time MU plays.  Let's hope everybody gets through finals.   
10.  NJIT beat Michigan.

Wisconsin may be good Tower, but the fact that they look very pedestrian against our team which we know is not a good team makes me think they're overhyped some.

Good synopsis - I agree completely. We lost to a better team.

Pretty much the outcome that was expected.

Slightly surprised by Wisconsin's struggles, actually. Not sure that had anything to do with us, but still.

Where was Burton this game? Is his lack of minutes reflective of his mental state, physical state or Wojo's assessment of his current ability?

If Dawson transfers, will you stop posting?

You bring a lot to this board, granted. But every now and then you post things like this. With no provocation. And many other problems with many players today.

Sheesh.

And our 5 top 100 recruits (plus the 1 non-top 100 recruit) over the past 3 classes scored a combined 16 points.  So what's your point?  You're not very intelligent, are you?

We played hard and fairly we'll, but the last 10 minutes was not a good display offensively. Too many forced shots, some of which can be attributed to youth and/or inexperience. Cohen looked good out there, IMO. Valuable minutes for him.

Wisconsin does not look like the same team as a year ago. They're very good, but something seems to be missing.

Wisconsin.  Size inside wins it for them.  

MU tells us more about UW, then UW tells us about MU.

My takeaways.  UW is good, they will win a lot of games, but this is not a final 4 team.  First team that can match up with them size wise beats them.  They are not particularly athletic, can't stop penetration and rely on pure size to avoid being destroyed on drives.

Against teams with adequate size and good guards they will lose, AKA Duke.  Duke had the bigs to match up and Jones was able to dominate them.  Other teams like Kansas, UK, Arizona, UNC, UCLA, even Mich. ST., will be able to beat them.

Give it up dude. At least try to bring some sort of analysis to the table other than looking at the box score.

Dude, your are the biggest whinebag on this board. U provoke little fights with your sarcastic remarks and piss and moan about anyone that doesn't have the same view as you.

Nevada, if you can find a single post where someone claimed Derrick was an all american in something other than a sarcastic fashion, and I will take the rest of the month off from the board.   You know that no one has.   I know that no one has.   How many points did anyone other than Carlino score today?    Geeezzzus.

Here's an analysis. Our senior PG is terrible and bogs down our offense considerably. 0-5 on field goal attempts and every one of them was a drive to the hoop. Just brutal

If that's the case (and you may be right) then I'll predict right now we won't see one single B1G team get past the round of 16 this year.

Fought their asses off.  Played D.  Gritty.

Wojo had a plan and the guys executed.  Badgers just too big and experienced.   Never happy losing to the D Bag-ders, but the future is bright.

Everyone is entitled to their views. But if they totally go against the constructs of logic, that should be acknowledged.

Didn't like the offensive strategy. We kept trying to force it in the paint and got blocked repeatedly. Would have like to seen a few more outside shots.

Deonte and JJJ looked awful on both sides of the court (besides Deonte's three).

Derrick looked like last year's version of himself on offense, definitely a step back. Solid defense.

Giving the ball to Duane tonight basically equaled a turnover. 1-9 shooting. Kid took wild drive after wild drive. His defense did look improved though.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Good effort today. Played pretty tough D just not enough rebounding. MU missing a few pieces which will hopefully be here next year.

What'd anybody not named Matt Carlino do?

Absolutely silly to complain about 1 guy when 7 of 8 who played played really bad offensively.  Maybe Cohen, but he's not going to come in and play point guard so...
