Haukar Game Thread

[keefe]

They have John Belushi out on the court! We can't lose to these guys!

Backdoor cuts and Jump Shooting that's all the are doing

But yes Madison luuuuuvs the backdoor

But we aren't stopping it. And free throw shooting has been horrendous. Was HE 0/2 on that last trip to the stripe? I believe we are 6/14 from the line. Missed at least one every trip.

Haukar absolutely believes in the least efficient shot in basketball

Duane!

Are we playing the Germans???

Whoa. 8-0 run in, what, 20 seconds?

[Class71]

Ugh, ugh, ugh.

OK guys, what's the score. I am in an airplane high above Wyoming right now.

[brewcity77]

Trailing 43-37 at the half, but Marquette finishes the half on a 10-4 run to cut the lead in half. Included a 6-point trip that saw Duane score on a drive, steal the ensuing inbound and score again, draw a foul, then after missing the FT (ugh, 6/15 in the half?) Luke got a putback.

Nice flurry there at the end of the half. Could be winning if we knocked down free throws.

Henry looks a bit overmatched. Traci looks pretty good. Duane looks good.

Defense needs improvement. It got better towards the end, but way too many open layups off of backdoor and flex cuts for a 10 minute stretch there.

A little surprised Heldt hasn't seen the floor yet.

Off  topic-
For you long toothed fellas

Was John Ellenson a good shooter/physically tough?

[MUDPT]

Who's #32? 

[Galway Eagle]

Not disappointed in Henry so far but he doesn't quite look like any of those guys you'd see at Kentucky. I knew he wasn't gonna be Trey Lyles or Jahlil Okafor but he seems to be struggling with the physicality down low.

[dgies9156]

Thanks Brew

[Ellenson Guerrero]

Who's #32?

The new Tom Crean.

Haven't been able to watch the game being stuck at work, but it looks like people should've listened to me when I said Traci Carter would be just fine running the show.  The kid is very good.  Had he not been injured for the entire most important evaluation period, he would've been a top 60 kid.

[brewcity77]

Who's #32?

Traci Carter. Looked fantastic so far. Can drive, distribute, shoot from range, and flashed some defense. Great physical build for a true freshman. I'm very excited to watch this kid the next four years.

[Lennys Tap]

Is this announcer Hans or Franz?

[MUDPT]

The new Tom Crean.

I thought I saw #21 too, thanks for the clarification.

[Class71]

Think our president needs to work on public speaking and body language. Needs to project confidence and strength.

[jsglow]

Only scholly guy not to play has been Matt.  I'd say I've been impressed by Luke, Duane and Traci.  Iceland looks like a team that's played together a long time.  We look like we've had 10 practices.

Believe it or not he's actually really improved in the last year.

[BM1090]

Considering the first time playing together as a team, the European ball/rules, not a terrible showing. Improved as they got closer to the end of the half.

[BM1090]

Really don't like the lack of air conditioning in the building. Wet spots, players are slipping.
