My God, Joplin is bad.

LOL

When Jop passed up the wide open shot and took the contested 3 I was sure it would miss.  Whew

[SoCalEagle]

That's more of what we need.

My God, Joplin is bad.

He's probably been our best player this half. Or Kolek.

My God, Joplin is bad.

?? Clown. He's been maybe our best player so far

Stop, score, come out strong in the 2H after a terrible stretch of hoops. 

[Daniel]

Let's turn them over here and score again before half

[Fred Garvin]

Solid half for Jop!!

[PointWarrior]

Joplin leading all scorers.  I am warming up to Jop.

Crap.  This is exactly the game my pessimistic self was picturing all week.  And that was a horrible foul call on Oso. He just moved to the side and the guy fell

Yup, those darn refs again, they are playing good defense against MU. 

Sidenote, Kam Jones is hurting, went to knees again.  Hope he gets some rehab at halftime. 

[MuggsyB]

Sweet Jesus.  Focus!!

[MUEng92]

Gibson's 3's look like they barely get above the top of the backboard.  The opposite of Kam

Color commentator really like depaul

Yeah, Kam is laboring.

[cheebs09]

Win the second half and get the hell back to Milwaukee.

[MuggsyB]

Use Oso more in the 2H.  The good news is we played poorly but are still up 1. 

[SoCalEagle]

Halftime adjustments are coming. 

[ATL MU Warrior]

Expected a not very sharp 1st half coming off a week off. Not disappointed.

[Daniel]

This is one of the worst halves we have played all year.   And we are ahead one.  Come out second half on fire Marquette! 

[Tha Hound]

Halftime thoughts:

Omax - he's been unplayable. Bad on both ends
Kam - hope he's not hobbling to start second. If so, don't put him on the floor. It's a liability.
Tyler - Not bad, but needs to olay more under control
Jop - loved his first half. Confident and in control. Good D

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Poor half for OMax and Stevie.

[MUEng92]

Umm, I pointed out one obviously bad call. I didn't say the refs are the reason MU is playing down to DePaul's level.

Honestly, if there's a team beating expectations now, it's DePaul. He had good things to say when Kolek was dropping dimes.

It's not like there's been a lot to praise on either side.

[SoCalEagle]

Shake em up, Shaka. Get them to focus and win this thing.  Top of the Big East at stake.
