I love Tower's recaps. He has a gift for summing things up well, and succinctly. He may have had to work tonight, so I'll put forward my effort (be kind).

1. A very nice bounce-back from the abomination of the DePaul game. Credit to the coach and the
    squad.
2. The start was a little frustrating. 10-0, and we peed it away. It seems that when we're on the on
    the other end of such a start, the deficit never disappears.
3. A little concerned that Justin was gassed and needed a break. He came back in and was woefully
    short on a 3, but loosened up and was himself down the stretch.
4. Morsell handling the ball at the ends of games has to stop.
5. How many times did we score a nice hoop, and celebrate? Meanwhile, SJU was running down
    for a runout.
6. The big thing is, we avoided a Wed. game at the Garden.
7. Goose egg from Kolek. Makes you think our pick and roll is pretty much dead. Zero from Kam as
    well.
8. FT's no matta. But they helped us tonight.
9.Nice to see Kur back among the living - nice game.
10.Nice 3 from Stevie at a key time -like his future with us.
11. Don't forget it was Senior Night. Certainly appreciate what Kur and Darryl have done for us
      this year, but Kudos most of all to GE, who's been there most of the time since I got out of
      MKE in 1972, I hope he comes back to wipe out Otule's records.

Thanks for stepping up.

4. DM is probably our second best ball handler. I don't trust the freshmen yet.
5. +100
6. +1000

1. We are not great at keeping sustained runs right now. But idk about us never coming back ont he other end. We have quite the knack for making games interesting when down big, usually get it down to 1 down the stretch, lately been losing them. But we usually make a big push.

3. I actually thought Shaka sitting a few guys Justin included and trusting Jop and Stevie was huge. We got our guys some breathe and the young dudes made some shots.

PG's, you're absolutely right.My frustration over pissing away the lead led me to conveniently forget the deficits  we've made up this year.

Also, appreciated this humor.  Or maybe I underestimated the time Greg's been in MKE.

Liked several of Shaka's moves tonight:

++ He let Lewis take the technical FTs even though Justin's not our best FT shooter. JL had just hit 4 straight, and then he calmly hit the 2 for the tech.

++ He benched Morsell after Darryl's last turnover -- even though it was still a close game, we needed ballhandling and we needed good FTs on the court. A coach can only watch so many giveaways by one player. All season long, Shaka hasn't been afraid to sit his best players when he's considered it necessary.

++ He gave Stevie and Joplin nice runs, and both made big plays for us in the second half. I especially am loving what we've gotten from Stevie lately. The kid stays ready, and he makes a sudden impact when Shaka calls his number.

++ He squeezed the most possible production from the 5 position. Both Kuath and Oso had their moments.

Also ...

Very, very nice game for Lewis. Even hit the dagger 3. Looking forward to seeing what he does under the bright lights at MSG.

Is Kam suffering a bit of a crisis of confidence? 8 points total in the last 3 games, and even a little bit of a reluctance to shoot.

It hurts a lot when neither Kam nor Greg are sharp from 3. Not only do we need them to make some shots, but it affects other parts of their game. Unfortunately, that's been the norm the last several games. Need more from them.

Too many sloppy TOs from our starting guards.

It was cool to see the day unfold exactly the way Marquette needed it to unfold: Seton Hall coming back to beat Creighton, UConn winning, and Marquette taking care of business.

Dumb jerk.  Should have pulled Darryl instead.

Solid summary by Miles the 72 grad, but real solid summary here MU82.

All good points

Yes—I asked " is JLew shooting the technician as well?"

The cheers for Stevie when he entered the game were deafening. It was so cool.

Kam and TK had open 3s that tgey passed ip and then shook their heads asking themselves 'why didn't I shoot that?'

DM does so many things well....but we usually get a head scratching turnover or two and an air ball per game.

Agree on your Shaka comments. When I say to my daughter.......Ugh we need to get this player out or have that player defend someone else.......Shaka is already making the move.

Such a refreshing change from what we witnessed the last 7 years.

Though I felt last night pulling Stevie to re-insert Greg was a mistake, yet I'm sure Shaka felt he trusted Greg more to potentially make FTs etc down the stretch.

It's going to be interesting to see how the guard spot shakes out these next few years.  Stevie showed a lot of improvement down the stretch.  Kam is probably a lock starter next year.  I still think Kolek will be the starting PG next year but definitely will get pushed by Stevie.  If Sean Jones comes in and is better than Kolek/Stevie, I'll be surprised, but reports on Jones are he's the real deal.  Great "problems" to have after years of not having a traditional/effective PG.

21rooster

On Kolek, yes he had zero points, but he had 6 assists and many more that should have been assists.  An assist us as good as a score in my book, especially for a PG.  I had no problem with his game, especially with just two turnovers against that defense. 

connie

Love what Morsel brings, but those "moments" he always seems to have are so frustrating.

BCHoopster

Not sure Cam is quick enough yet as he looked a step slow yesterday and really could not get open.  Defensively he has issues as well.  The guard position should be wide open next year.  Kolek has not shown as much improvement as we all would like.  Yesterday he was good at times and bad, afraid to shoot. Needs his confidence back.  They all will have to improve this summer.

So, you are saying that Shaka is as good at in-game strategy as you are?  ;D

I tend to agree.  After all he was facing off against the 2020-2021 Big East Conference Defensive Player of the Year, Posh Alexander.  Tyler's line was pretty similar to Alexander's in this game.  The Kolek hate from some here is pretty ignorant.

Lets not get carried away......Shaka's  been solid but he has a ways to go to reach my level of armchair point guard.

Kolek has lots of room to improve, what is good about him is he is a gym rat so I expect significant improvement in the next few years.
