Busy all afternoon.  DVR -ing the game.  Watching it later.

I presume you're talking about the usual ten items from the game list title.

..and if they beat us it's Depaulable.

We don't want to get into a DePaul Rut.

I'd find it DePauling

I'll sub for Tower for now until he watches.

1) Shock and Awe from Reinhardt  and Rousey was fantastic.
2) An occasional defensive lapse (especially early) but holding Depaul in the 50s was a great thing.
3) Shot 62 percent for the first half and 60 percent from 3-point land. Something was going right (see #1).
4) Cheatham is quietly leading this team -- defensive work was fantastic and loved the way he drived the basket.
5) Nice overall performance but Depaul is still Depaul. Jean -- are you ever going to learn?
6) Wojo wasn't worried in the least. His jacket never came off!
7) Big Fishey, meet Big Pine. You keep playing like you did today and you'll be Matt Heldt's best friend. Fish, we really need you to take it to the next level.
8) That said, we outrebounded Depaul convincingly.

Playtime is over, now back to the Big East

Heldt wasn't great either.  Look, this offense is really not set up to run through a traditional post center.  We need them for defense.  And they have both been pretty good.

Just remember, if you ever feel depressed about the state of Marquette basketball/athletics there's always DePaul and JLP.

Fish was taking double teams all game, and one of the reasons we had a team n of threes one, with great ball movement. So Fish helped a lot, I think

Playtime is over, now back to the Big East

1.  30 minutes of the game were relatively even.
2.   The other 10 were all about 30.   With some help from 22. 
3.  Remember a few days ago when people were wondering if Rowsey was ever gonna get off the bench because Markus could walk on water?    Howard is a freshman.    Sometimes, he is going to look like a freshman. 
4.   Hope JjJ heals quickly.   
5.  The bench looked ridiculously good today.    What a luxury to have 3 players with starting experience coming off of the bench.   
6.  10 days from now, it is entirely possible and even likely that MU will be 3-5.   MU had to have this one.   
7.  Mission accomplished.

First half was awesome (great intensity, great ball movement, -mostly- great defense), second half was meh.

If this team ever truly puts two halves together, they will be dangerous.

They stretched the lead to 30 points and basically stopped trying to score.  What more do you need?
