MU at Butler Game Thread

[PGsHeroes32]

Jop has been playing much better D for a while.

Still has moments were he gambles(like Creighton last shot) or loses his guy. But he tries hard. Hes strong. And hes good at disrupting passes.

Butler hasn't scored in nearly 5 minutes

Almost there....Get to 30, then experiment all they want.   If MU made some bunnies and under the basket turnovers (Sean please stop driving), it would be there and more.  Not chucking up threes and working ball around very nicely. Just missing the bunnies, like 4 in second half.

MU defense is just unreal. How did Butler beat Xavier?????

More like, how did Marquette lose to Xavier?

Joplin is maturing every game. Another weapon for a dangerous team. Need to get Ross to step up another level and they will be ready for March.

Goose,

Can we get Ross for an easy backdoor flush or lay-up?  Maybe a 2 will get his 3 ball back on track.

Let's Gooo - no let up!    Rush them now!

Outstanding out of bounds play

BEN!!!!

[PGsHeroes32]

Elite teams touch each other the most

hmmmmmmm

[MuggsyB]

I'm nitpicking but I don't really like Oso bringing it up. 

[PGsHeroes32]

At this point, up 24. Just keep turning it over Oso and get it out of your system for next week.

He took me literal and immediately did it again.

Not sure what his deal is.

He's had a few games with sloppy turns.  Needs to clean that up.

Is Oso feeling alright? He looks kind of out of it tonight and a step slow.

[21Jumpstreet]

Don't. Let. Up.

He looks a step off and he is turning the ball over.  Twice in a row.    Good to let him rest. And see what's going on.

Bardo said he doesn't look right and noticed he grimaced at one point.

[nyg]

Come on......cut the turnovers please, that's 3 of last 4 possessions.   They are either turning it over or fouling them.

This game not in doubt, I just hate to lose big leads, just once keep pedal to the metal.  Shaka not happy.

We got this

Real nice night for OMax. Hope he keeps that going.

[21Jumpstreet]

OMax is a much better player when he stays on balance and on his feet. Well done

[Daniel]

Some sloppy play.  Need to clean this up. Don't let these guys back in

That seems like a coachable point for him. The team preaches "multiple efforts" and if you fall on the floor you completely take yourself out any chance for one.
