Butler Game Thread

[MUBurrow]

Markus forcing shots didn't help - but the reason for this loss falls squarely on the coaching staff's willingness to let Butler's best player get his best shot possession after possession in the second half.

Ummmm hang on a minute

Nice 1st grade deflection.

What the actual F!!  Are you kidding Koby, Koby, Sacar!

[WolfganghisKhan]

Imagine if we didn't force Markus 28 footers the previous 5 minutes

Jeez good heart


and it ends on a biffed lay up

Nevermind

Markus really disappears a lot in crunch time.

Unfortunately, he does not disappear in crunch time.

Wonder how Anim will enjoy seeing film of that "screen" Markus gave him?

Jeeeeeeeesus howard

If Markus takes a seat with 4 minutes left in regulation we win this game. I love the kid, but this is why sam hauser transferred, he needed to be reigned in late in this game

[CTWarrior]

They should have adjusted and forced him to go left...perhaps staff wasn't aware of his penchant to go right as a lefty?

How about just doubling him and forcing him to give up the ball?

Right. Close him out and live with the results.

You're 100% correct. Shades of that loss at Nova that blew the locker room up. And the Seton Hall BET game that vaporized it.

this dude ain't wrong. Very reminiscent of the Seton Hall BET game.

Great job making adjustments Wojo...NOT. This is on him...what would a Wojo season be without one of these gut wrenching, head scratcher choke jobs?? So f'n pissed

[forgetful]

We had a higher eFG%. Butler outscored us by 16 from the FT line. eFG% no matter.

[MUeng]

Great effort by the team. Koby wanted it tonight, no doubt. Markus went completely cold in the 2nd half and that's what cost us. Baldwin got hot, oh well. But Markus has to be better with shot selection.

Yet, made every big shot in the close game at Georgetown.

Donny Marshall really kind of calling Markus our at the half and again postgame. Markus last made shot was at 15 minute mark of reg..meaning he'd didn't have a make for last 20 minutes of game with OT added.

Live or die with Markus. Love the kid though. Got tat take the occasional bad with all the good.

Have a smoke. It's all good. 

[Mike Deane's Seat Belt]

People trying to put blame on the only ball player we have on offense.  There is garbage for offensive options outside of markus!   Its uwm's roster plus howard. 

[SaveOD238]

Baldwin was lights out.  Markus wasn't the same after taking a tumble.  Tip your cap and get em back in Milwaukee.

I don't think benching him would solve it but using him as decoy for sure. Ill advised shots at the end

You're extremely stupid.
