MU/Weasel-Rodent Game Thread

He took one three Fluffy.  6 freaking shots?  He has to be a scoring option especially with Mitchell on the floor. 

Did you watch the game???

UW's defense extended on him so he would put the ball on the floor because that's where he gets into trouble.

Now that it has sunk in I'm  more upset about this loss than I originally thought. And it honestly has nothing to do with the rivalry.  That's a team you have to beat on your home floor.  Hopefully we punk Notre Dame and play our A Game vs Creighton the 16th.

He "gets in trouble" when he is hesitant.  Are you saying he picks up assists without dribbling?

Oy.

Try to be consistent OK? You first said "terrified." Now you are saying "hesitant." Those are different.

To go back to the original point. Defenses aren't sagging off of TK. In fact, if anything, they are overplaying his outside shot right now.

Is he the only player that teams extend or overplay?   3/4 of our starting perimeter players made a total of one shot beyond  2 feet.  That's not gonna do it against halfway decent teams.   They have to be a threat to score in tight games.

Keep shifting the goalposts....

I'm not shifting anything, they have to be a threat to score.  If not it puts way too much pressure on Kam and OMax.

It blows my mind how we can lose when we have better athletes and a better coach.

I don't know about that latter part today.

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

Yeah, at some point Gard's gotta get his due.

[GoldenEagles03]

I don't know about that latter part today.

I don't know that either of those things are true.

UW wins games in March every season.  We are just trying to get back to doing that.  Shaka has a very tough task with this team though.

The looks have been there in the 3 close games, but we just don't have guys to knock them down.  UW, MS State, Purdue all L's.  Could be some tough weeks ahead too with the gauntlet starting at ND, but I think the growth is the important thing.

Maybe we pull out a win in our 4th attempt at a close game.

Seriously? "better athletes and better coaching"? Ever give a consistently better program its due? Consistency matters. Remind us again how many tournament games MU has won since 2013?
Hepburn plays the entire game today, you lose by 15...there's always "next year" 'lil' brother...

Better coach?  We were literally doubling Carter bleeping Gilmore when he got the ball in the post.
