MU/MSU Game Thread

Kolek becoming a head case. Poor attitude again.

Idiotic decisions. My god he can barely be on the court. Never seen a guard get in foul trouble this quickly. It's like the last 4 games. Wtf ? Sad gonna have the play the whole game without him. Put him back in and Shaka better tell his ass not to swipe at anything. Frustrating

[MuggsyB]

Have to attack the basket way, way, more.

couldn't have started worse...yet mich st only up 10

Their defense is making it tough to drive. We are going to have to hit some shots.

On the flip side, they are getting into the lane too easily. I'm confident we will turn it around.

Kolek becoming a head case. Poor attitude again.

He is not himself last two games.  No idea if hand is issue or what.   

Let's settle down and hit some shots

[GoldenEagles03]

Well this is not good...msu guards best we've seen all year and we can't make anything

That's just not even close to true.

Flagler, Cryer, George on Baylor are hands down the best in the country.

Marquette just came out shy to start and Kolek buried himself on the bench. Nightmare start.

[Farley36]

I got criticized for the things I said?  The way some of you are turning on a player who was the engine of this team all year is embarrassing.

[MUEng92]

Kam is going to have to light ''em up.  Everyone else looks scared

[MUCam]

Kudos to MSU's defense. Has our guys pressing a bit. They are cutting off our lanes and causing the fluidity of the offense to get bogged down.

MU is starting to play some D too, but MSU is getting better looks.

[SERocks]

We are going to be fine.

Theyre just packing the paint and forcing us to hit 3s. And we can't so far.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

It's early people, MU will find their groove

[nyg]

MU is very lucky.  MSU has missed the last 4 three pointers and they were wide open.  Bad defense

MU not going to win jacking threes, but may be their only recourse .

Shaka the Maestro needs to get the team back together here, the offense is stagnant and he may have to put Kolek back in before too late.

[DavidBoone2inchesTaller]

Everyone change up where they are sitting so we can change the mojo

This is excellent idea.

Michigan State is shooting a low pct from 3, not a good sign we're still 10 down with that.

[Milkshakes]

Kolek is hurt. There is no doubt about it.  The thumb is worse than they are letting on. He is frustrated and doing things he wouldn't normally due as a result. Gonna be tough to win without our motor. 

[WellsstreetWanderer]

Just have to figure the zone out
We'll be fine after we settle down
This is new territory for them

[Herman Cain]

Just keep playing hard one possession at a time. Slowly chip away at their lead.

[NolongerWarriors]

MU might be the worst #6 team in the country in the history of college basketball.

And the worst #2 seed

[warriors141]

our bench guys have been beyond awful

[Silent Verbal]

Sean probably shouldn't shoot again for a while.

[mugrad_89]

Can't keep giving up multiple shots.

[oilcan]

With Kolek out MU can't play the triangle with Oso. Not good. It will come later, still Kam needs to keep them in this game. And they need to play better defense and get more possessions and more shots. Were in good shape. Do not fret my friends. The Spartans shot so well and they're playing some bully ball. We've seen this movie before.  Close game at the half and then the determination and the return of Kolek will reign in the the second half and all of us will dance around like we're crazy fools.  If I was Smart I would say "Don't let them in the lane. Foul them. We want them to shoot threes." 

[MuggsyB]

The scary thing is Mich St. Is 1-7 from 3.  We're getting completely outworked abd outplayed right now.  Have to get Kam going.
