Butler

[lawdog77]

Beautiful morning unfolding in downtown  Indianapolis on day 3 of a roadtrip from Milwaukee. Indy is a 3:00 am town,  so hoping my hotel's free breakfast provides a cure for being a little overserved last night.

Purdue seems to be drawing most of the college basketball attention around here but I'm sure Hinkle will be full and loud tonight.

My advice. Go to milktooth for brunch and have a beermosa

I fully expect MU to be ready to go and take care of business.

If Ty performs another Kolektomy, its in the bag.

a Kolekostomy bag?

In conference, they do not defend. I mean, if we make just a few of our open threes and bunnies at the rim, we win that game in Milwaukee comfortably and are eyeing up command of first place with two wins this week. They got wildly fortunate to beat 'Nova, Creighton, and Providence, all of which were effectively single possession games.

Right now, they are a tourney team because they have the results, but Butler is a team with a horseshoe planted firmly up their asses. Hopefully Tyler is up for another Kolekoscopy tonight to remove it.

Love this post, brew.

Nice day in Indy, fun with friends last night, ready to enjoy a great capper to a great trip.

In addition to the expectation that Kolek will have a better game and MU will make a few 3s, I note that the Butler game was the first full game without Ross in the lineup. That obviously affected rotations and may have contributed to the uneven performance.

I’m looking for a much better and cohesive performance tonight, but still expect a tough game.

It’ll be barbecue chicken from there.

Also the game Sean went down with ~4 minutes left and down around 10.

According to Kenpom, UCONN is the "luckiest" BE team, followed by Butler. But overall BE teams are very "unlucky" UCONN is 89th nationally and Butler is 158th. Incidentally, we're third luckiest in conference at 171st.

Nova is the unluckiest at 359th fourth worst in the country - total Quad4 territory.

#muMbb’s graphic for the game says Feb 14. Bad omen?

Butler has reached double digit 3FGM twice this year in BEast play, including against us on a 45.5%. Let’s not let that happen again.

Their defense is dung. Punish them.

[rgoode57]

Always the danger of looking past Butler to UConn. Hopefully, the team stays focused on giving Butler some payback.

Spot-on.  ATTACK, ATTACK, ATTACK!!!  Play with no hesitation, confidence, and own this game.

I don't think that's as big a problem as some make it out to be.

And even if it can be a problem on rare occasions, the fact that Butler beat MU in Milwaukee surely has the guys' attention.

That's true, but I don't factor that in because the worst part of the game (MU turning a 7 point halftime lead into a double digit deficit) came before that.

Maybe Shaka should have conceded the game and put in the walkons so that none of the regulars could get hurt.

Excellent point about Ross.

If the breakfast doesn't help, last year I walked to the stadium from downtown. It helped my overindulgence from the 1933 lounge.

Wouldn't it be Kolekoscopy?

I don't doxx. Just here for the art.

A  Kolekoscopy is a scouting procedure. A Kolektomy is a precision surgical attack resulting in a positive outcome.

[PGsHeroes32]

Sleepers media at it again.

Waddell is Basically trolling at this point.

Gave Kolek love for the run he’s been on. But said he’s 90% bark. Feast on cupcake baxk courts.

Not “tough” ones. Somehow butlers 87th rated Ken Pom D is tough. But he laughed nova and SJU.

Illinois isn’t a real back court so not tough. Texas isn’t cause they can’t guard(but apparently butler can).

Purdue was a great game but a loss so doesn’t count. But 6 pts in a blowout over Kansas counts as Kolek being all bark.
