Lowest lows follow the highest highs
« on: December 03, 2022, 05:52:10 PM »
1.  About that double team strategy.... 
2.   Hepburn had a Roman Holiday, then made a Funny Face and left.   He is forever Unforgiven.   His last two makes, Omax and Oso were in perfect position.
3.  Wisconsin was not interested in being turned over or sped up.
4.  Oso has a mental block at the free throw line.
5.  Wisconsin able to tread water until the return of Chucky.
6.  Mr. Jones.
7.  Rebounding.
8.  In the end, Wisconsin made one more play.   Alas.

Oso or Omax should take that ball out.   Have Kolek as an open receiver.

Baseball passes were awful. We were the better team outside of an 8 minute stretch in the first half.

I don't really like how we executed once the game was right there for us.

Absolutely brutal. Wisconsin is not good really at all. A bunch of what should be roll players on that team. We did make a Chucky Hepburn look like Dame Lillard. And couldn’t even pull it out with him missing 15 minutes and being hobbled when he came back.

Horrendous defensive strategy first half to double Steven Crown on the first bounce literally every time. Not hard to beat that when you know exactly what’s coming.

Then with Hepburn out/hampered we didn’t harass them in the back court the entire first half.

Drawing up plays to get OMax a 3? That ain’t it. And those two last in bound plays? Woof.

Wonder if Lenny will call anyone out for their missed predictions tonight. Won’t hold my breath.

Oh come on. One those are the dumbest arguments ever. Two they were the better team anytime Hepburn was available to them.

6.  Mr. Jones.

Assuming Kam - I've been critical of MU's players being able to drive or create their own shot.  Kam showed me something today.

We did make a Chucky Hepburn look like Dame Lillard.
How did “we” make Chucky Hepburn look like Dame Lillard. In the game I watched he made multiple logo threes with our tallest and most athletic players in his face.

Yes Shaka was late on adjusting to running them away of 3 pt line. Rodents mostly suck and got turned over when playing inside.

Yes. Once we gave him 4 wide open looks to start he had some confidence and made some tough shots. That’ll happen sometimes.

Yes but arms down when he started motion. When a shooter is that hot can't do that, rather let him penetrate to center of paint.

Don't let them shoot 70% in the first. But give them credit, they battled back. Badgers just made one more play down the stretch.

Just a frustrating way to end that game with not even a shot being put up. I know you don’t want to inbound into the backcourt but I’d rather have a final 3/4 court heave than that garbage.

Kam, great game young man!

My hatred for Chucky is not nut-puncher level, but it’s growing…

Kolek crapped the bed.  Thought he would be the reason for winning but hesitant to shoot a three, can’t drive well and can’t in bound the ball.  He needs to be a rock for this team and not one of the reasons we lose.  I still think he is the linch pin.  He needs to have the balls to shoot and make things happen at the end of games.  If he’s not capable, we need need Sean to play at the end. Disappointing loss. MU is good though. I’m not giving up on this season at all.  ND will go down on Sunday.

We allowed him to practice 3 pointers first half, he made them and gave him all the confidence he needed.

Going away from high pick and roll with Oso in OT is what led to 5 point deficit. That was the difference imo

This was a setback..  It's a bit worrisome how this team will execute in a close game down the stretch.  We're 0-3 to this point.

Make one more foul shot in regular play and the outcome is different.
