That was fun

[tower912]

1.  Yeah, it was Butler playing without Nze and unable to hit a drift with a snowball.  But it is better than losing.
2.  Bringing size off the bench.  More motion with Greg.
3.  Greg brought different energy to the starters.   What might have been.
4.  Jamal played the most focused game of his season.
5.  I hope Garcia's hand is an annoyance, not a problem.
6.  Would have liked to see Perez and Dexter get some second half run.
7.  Need Lewis and Oso to heal.
8.  It was a good night.   I am going to enjoy it.

Shazam, Butler sucks more than we do, hey?

Put it on Wojo's resume he should be circulating.

A win is a win is a win.

[MUfan12]

Yay?

[ZiggysFryBoy]

Fools gold.

[Silent Verbal]

No, it wasn't fun.  Butler is one of the worst P6 teams in the country this year, and they were playing without Bryce Nze.
Let's not try to dress this up as anything more than what it was:  A win versus a really crappy team.  Slurping isn't going to help anybody at this point.

Nobody has claimed it was anything other than a win over a bad team.

'Dear God, please never let me get so bitter, jaded, cynical, and angry that I can't enjoy a 20 pt conference road win.  Amen'

I know they haven't.  I'm being preemptive.

If it's not fun, why do you even bother? I don't get it.

[MUfan12]

When you're playing out the string it takes a lot of the excitement out of it. Not bitter. Just facts.

[BCHoopster]

Nice to see the veterans playing well, and Koby more on the bench. It sticks to much in his hands when he is playing.  Turnovers were less since he was on the bench. Hard to believe Torrence can not make an outside shot, oh well

[rocky_warrior]

Winning is more fun than losing.  No matter who you play.

BTW, according to MU's site, we also beat DePaul tonight!  Double bonus!

[hairy worthen]

How do you bitch when they lose and then bitch when they win.

They played well no doubt,  but I dont want to see any goofy stats that say Marquette played lights out defense because Butler SUCKs.

I believe it goes on slide 6 from fbm, "Other accomplishments"

Well...they did give up the exact same amount of points to SHU, so D was probably worse today.  But, O was better.

Christ some people are just miserable.

If you can't enjoy that type of game, just find something better to do with your time.

But some will dress it. Waiting for the Wojo-Dukiet worshippers to lobby for a new extension.

[Shooter McGavin]

Kobe on the bench a ton tonight.  Definitely helped with turnovers and missed layups.  Love the D he brings but Wojo has needed a quicker hook with him all season.  There are many correctable turnovers that can be dissuaded with some pine time.

These are some sad, sad people.

Make one comment that is hard to believe, Butler just beat St. John's, still can not believe it, any give. Night

[MuggsyB]

Look, we played well tonight.  We all know Butler isn't good but that doesn't change the basic facts.   It was a solid performance and for the most part a complete performance.  In the grand scheme of things it means very little but it was good to see these guys get a W.

[GoldenWarrior11]

Great win. Happy for Greg, Jamal and Theo. Glad we got to experience a win.

Having said that, the trajectory is the same and the need for a change remains.
