MU/St. J Game Thread

[Eye]

Anybody got an NHL team they want to sell me on that's fun to watch over the next couple of months 'til baseball season starts?

[f/k/a humanlung]

Can't wait to see the halftime adjustments.

It's year 7, we're due for those.  Right?

High ball screen with Carton is doing nothing for the offense.

Theo selling out for every block (and getting zero of them) has led to 3-4 easy putbacks

Inbounds after made baskets is pathetic

[MuggsyB]

D performance at best.

St. J has hit a few more open triples than usual but this was a dismal, dismal, 20 mins of hoops. 

[Cream Biggums]

Pain.

Yes

Yes

Yes

Inexcusable

feel dumb watching this

[JWags85]

DJ taking his sweet time to start a possession that has a 7.6 second shelf life!??!

Unlike wisco, no foul to bail him out.

It's the gameplan.  "DURR SLOW, DONT LET SJU RUN".  Aka Marquette is playing slow like they are up 15 with 5 min left even tho they are down double digits.  It's just hopeless brain dead basketball.

Wojo half time adjustment is he quick goes and reads muscoop to find out what to do.

[drbob]

Pathetic half  Never seen a team with so many who can't dribble a ball. Put in the bench

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

I would have been okay down no more than 10 at the half. Gave them 6 free points under 10 seconds left. Ugh.

[manny31]

I HAVE to be missing something!!!! Is MU playing horribly to get a better draft choice???
I think there is, like what, eight of us still interested in MU hoops? What the H E double hockey Sticks is going on.....
Honestly, wtf....

I get that for the first 19:53. Dumb gameplan.

But the final 7 seconds common sense has to set in and realize you don't have time to walk for 3 seconds.

[BCHoopster]

Who is the home team, St John's hitting threes MU clanking them. Akanno is so bad it is unbelievable, like a deer in headlights, clueless out there. Really not much talent.

[4everwarriors]

Man, c'mon don't ewe no covid happened, hey?

[skianth16]

Do we think Wojo cues up the bad loss mad-lib at halftime today, or does he want until the second half under 4 media timeout?

[nyg]

Wow, two basically leaders on team can't throw the inbound pass.  Koby did same last game.
Thats five points direct to SJU.  Embarrassment to highest degree and on national TV.

Turnovers were good until end, only 6.
No foul trouble.

Trouble is shooting. 32% and 11% from three.  SJU is 53% and 47%.  MU one three, SJU has 7. (Ballgame)

Carton has no field goals, no assists, and two turnovers.

Theo is exhausted and playing like a warrior.  That Oso kid must be just a terrible player because he did not get one of Lewis's minutes.

Why are we even bothering to post?

Hopeless brain dead basketball is what we've largely gotten for the last 6+ seasons.

Pure entertainment??

Colorado, Toronto and Vegas are all really fun to watch.

[MuggsyB]

MU 1-9 from distance and -18.  Not a good stat.

[mileskishnish72]

Half-time adjustments coming.

[cheese ball chaser]

We could be in for a Georgetown-level of futility over the next few years.

[GoldenWarrior11]

Once again - MU will lose a majority of its remaining games.  We will finish with a sub-.500 record.  The school, at that point, will have no choice but to make a change.  There simply is no way Wojo can return with the team bottoming out. 

[Eye]

Thanks PG. Going to have to look into that at some point this week.

[MuggsyB]

We could be in for a Georgetown-level of futility over the next few years.

Terrifying thought.  We have sunk to Mariana Trench depths.  Extremely depressing.  I expect we come back in the 2nd half but it may be too little to late.
