MU/LIU Game Thread

It's obviously not gonna matter in this game, but they're taking way too many threes.  This is the kind of game where you should work on ball movement.

But this the Shaka game plan and has been since his arrival at MU.  Average over 30 attempts per game. If they hot, they can win. Joplin saved them from blowout from Purdue with his hot second half. Right now 4 for 16. 

LIU is brutally bad, maybe worst team they have played in years.

Oso is the only player that stands to me as clearly improved through 3.5 games.  Can't wait to see him the next few years.

Yeah, I know. I certainly hope I am absolutely wrong. Right now he looks like a guy on roller skates with a rocket strapped to his back.

They're awful.  True dat.

I was skewered on Scoop for positing the Exhibition games and Cupcake games NOT at The Al are good prep for the young guys. The CMU game was a good gadget game, the bench played great. They were MIA against Purdue while Purdue's youngins put their earlier stinkers behind them.

Small point but valid despite the Scooper Intelligencia thoughts.

So...with a 29pt lead, why are starters in?

We need to win by more than that

[wadesworld]

That's not really a flop. It's just bad defense. But there was clearly contact between the two players.

Some people know how to bring the #jackhammer

Kam has been pretty inconsistent to start off the season.  We're gonna need him to be more efficient and do more than streak shooting.

Nice

Stevie hasn't taken a shot?

So with 15 minutes to go the scrubs are in.  Hmmm... mods.  🤦

[MuggsyB]

Wrightsil can handle a bit.

[MuggsyB]

Was that a charge?? 

[MUEng92]

Was that a charge??

That was the call.  In fact it was such an efficient call the whistle may have been before actual contact

Something to do with a video about hyenas.

It's apparent Jones took time at half to read Scoop and was inspired by my comment to improve his play. Just another Scoop service.

Wait, bench guys are scrubs?  I thought we were supposed to be 10 deep, and you wanted playing time for bench guys.

Sean or Kam?

Good point.  Shaka probably sent them back to the locker room to watch again before sending them into the game.

[MuggsyB]

We put all 5 starters in up 32?

Blackheart will tell you the scrubs need more experience watching the starters play at the FF.

Trying to move up a seed line

[Tha Hound]

We've been swapping between starting 5 and bench players all game, its not like we've been riding the starters hard...

[MuggsyB]

Get them out .  NOW.
