MU - St. John’s game thread

[PGsHeroes32]

You're right.  Basketball is never a game of runs. 

I'm sure that was the result of the missed layin 2 minutes prior..that he didn't want to try a floating layup from 4 feet out..

Well I guess when youre wrong you have to start making up quotes.

[RushmoreAcademy]

Dude..chill out.  St John's is 66 KenPom.  Creighton is 67. They aren't a trash team.

It's true, they aren't.  Look at their wins and losses and advanced stats.  Too many people talking about them like they're a mid major.  Future pro players on the roster.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better half for TK tonight. Needs to right his ship.

He moved the ball really solid. Got some boards. Handled the bit of pressure he faced.

Agreed, he looked a bit better

Morsell and Lewis carried MU in the first half, but this teams needs at worst an average Tyler to win in the next two weeks

Well I guess when youre wrong you have to start making up quotes.

Guess your sarcasm detector doesn't work very well.  You're melting down over St John's going on a few runs.  So here, I'll correct the quote for you:  Basketball is a game of runs.  Get it? 

[DoctorV]

Omax doesn't have situational awareness. Dude just drives. It's a curse and it's weirdly a blessing in some games. He was +11 vs Depaul. Only he and Mitchell showed up

He was probably plus 11 because he didn't play much in the 2H?

Which means maybe Shaka shoulda played him a bit more in the 2H, when we couldn't stop anyone on their team?

I'm too lazy to look it up but that's my guess

[DoctorV]

Elonsmusk are you Ners?

Correct, like I said. Against Uconn and NOva I expect to constantly play a game of runs.

Against DePaul, SJU and Butler?? Uhhhh no. You should not be trading 7 pt runs with them all game long. Once or twice? Of course. Damn Grambling State will go on a 7-0 run vs UK at some point.

Theres a difference.

[PGsHeroes32]

Elonsmusk are you Ners?

Yes

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

I love Marquette
But man this team is hard to watch sometimes

You can just keep this handy for every Marquette team in the future...and the past!

[Daniel]

Be relentless on D, get to the hoop and draw fouls and score, pass the ball for best shot selection - let's Gooooo Marquette!

[nyg]

Up 9 early, momentum, lost lead
Up 10, momentum, almost lost lead
MU just cannot increase leads and put pedal to the metal.

Gave away six points. Prosper miss, Morsell pick six and Elliott inbound pass.

Kolek has zero points and has not even taken a shot.  Lewis having himself a night

Soriano and Wheeler sat majority of first half with two fouls and that hurt SJU.  Watch for Wheeler in second half with his three point shooting.

[DoctorV]

Lets not have a 2H like DePaul, eh?

[mileskishnish72]

Kind of have to chuckle - they showed Justin's breakaway jam, but not Max's.

[bradforster]

Lets not have a 2H like DePaul, eh?

Please don't mention that game!!

[PGsHeroes32]

Well that was a fantastic way to start the half...

[bradforster]

Where was the foul on Greg?

[MuggsyB]

Omg..  Have to get that rebound.  Inexcusable.

[MUEng92]

Well Greg has had better :42 in his career

[BCHoopster]

Elliott is such a mess right now, totally can not play anymore.

[jfp61]

This is not a Kur game

[MUEng92]

Idiot Kolek...awesome Kolek

[PGsHeroes32]

TK made up for his first awful pass in a big way

[MuggsyB]

Lewis is gonna need some help.

[PGsHeroes32]

One again letting them score every single possession.

Have to get stops

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Should have been an and-1.
