All good things must end

[tower912]

1.  MU is doing some really great things on defense.  Great scout, anticipating passing lanes, anticipating off the ball movement in order to keep size down low and guards on the perimeter.    Having size everywhere helps.
2.  Providence did a great job on Lewis.
3.  Rebounding.   An observation.  Reeves shoots and hits a 3 with 17:40 left.  3 MU players contested the shot.  If he had missed, there would have been nobody in place to rebound.   Providence decided their best chance was to toss it up and go get it.    They weren't wrong.
4.  Greg is never open.   Near the top of the scout, apparently.
5.  'Violence.'   They were allowed to beat on each other most of the game.  And then they weren't.
6.  Kolek sat too long, IMO.   Unless he had something wrong.   The Jones, Mitchell, Joplin combo is not yet ready for prime time, again, IMO.
7.  Every now and then you don't get the call.   Meh.
8.  I will not lose a nanosecond of sleep.   Titanic clash on the road.   Max effort.  Shot didn't fall at the end. Home team dug it out.    Next.

Rebounding will be the reason we lose in the tourney

[wadesworld]

Played some dumb basketball (way too much one on one and rushed shots), and didn't compete on the boards. Gave this game away.

[21Jumpstreet]

I won't lose sleep, but it was far from max effort.

"How do you like them apples" was locked and loaded and had to stay in the chamber. Damn

[PGsHeroes32]

The rebounding was simply abysmal.

Lost one we absolute should have had

[PointWarrior]

Providence's record still is a fraud - MU gave them this one in their court.

Were any of Buzz's teams as soft as this group?

MUBB 2022: REBOUNDING OPTIONAL
But honestly. What a great streak. Good game if you consider the multiple east layups we missed and open 3's we missed.

Bounce back against nova hopefully!

[Tha Hound]

Certainly we had something better than Kolek going to the hoop drawn up? Right?

If MU had won, it was going to be 'Blizzard Bee-yotch'.   Alas.

Too many offensive rebounds given up. Kuath is not a great rebounder in many ways and it hurt down the stretch. Gave up too much dribble penetration.

Offensively Lewis just got shut down. PC overplayed the triple and we couldn't take advantage.

Ah well. Hopefully we can restart the fun on Wednesday.

What's it like being such a miserable c*nt?

I geniunily hope the next time you walk out side you slip and tear an ACL.

Dumb comment.  We played our asses off.  We only have 1 physical guy..JLew..so the boards are going to be a problem.

[MuggsyB]

This is a very good MU team if they find a way to rebound the ball.  We honestly need to be tougher Tower on the glass.  GRAB THE BALL!!

Don't know but all of Wojo's were softer. F off.

??

You show you're a$$ with every post. You think this team is soft?

[KCWarrior]

No need to panic or even get upset. We beat them by 32 at our place. They beat us by 2 at their place. We rebound even just a couple and make just one of the no-footers we missed, and we're celebrating a win. I'll take our chances against Providence every single time. This Marquette team is very good and significantly better than any of us could have imagined.

I have a football game to go watch now ...

Yeah and I wouldn't even call Lewis super physical.

[NickelDimer]

Why some don't have that douche blocked is beyond me.

Mods: it's your board to do with what you want but how you haven't permabanned this loser is beyond me

[Vander Blue Man Group]

That f**king lane violation by Kur...

Oh, and the rebounding.   

[PointWarrior]

Porter Moser uses sandpaper for toilet paper his team is so tough...

Looking ahead to 2022-23, I don't see how MU becomes a better rebounding team -- especially if Lewis leaves. The yet-to-be-signed player (or two) will be an extremely important piece to this poor rebounding roster.
