MU/XU Game Thread

[Uncle Rico]

Up 10 at half shooting 25% from 3 and 5-12 at the line.

Still haven't had their run.  Good luck, X

[MuggsyB]

5-12 from the line.  Ughhh. 

Played a very mediocre 1H imo.  Should be up closer to 25 with X's turns and overall ineptitude. 

[nyg]

X went 1 for 15 at one point, then Gold brick and small run for X. Great defense, but too many open three misses. Three air balls, crazy.... Didn't take advantage of X slump.

Seven missed free throws don't help either.  Seven.......  But still up which is good.

Look for blowout in second, Shaka probably not happy. 

[Herman Cain]

Solid first half

[Uncle Rico]

wee willie whiner in Championship form.

If Marquette ever wins another natty, Willie isn't allowed at the parade or any celebration

[muwarrior69]

X should continue to foul. We cant make them.

Neither can X.

[nyg]

MU never gets the call when 2 refs get together and they've given XU the ball 3 times so far on the same exact strip call

Can't blame refs today...let 'em play

MU 3 fouls, two on one player.  12 ft attempts
X.   8 fouls.  2 ft attempts

Huge lead if they made those free throws. Huge.

In a game where MU leads by 10 at half...

Heads firmly embedded in their asses
As usual, Brick City by Gold. Officially changing his name to Brick Gold.
Very weak by him.
Joplin dorking it up on both ends of court.
Their coach telling them they are fouling way too much. That is good strategy the way we are blowing FTs
Terrible puke rebounding.
Cmon Kolek. Wake up.
Joplin wake up
Brick Gold with another brick.
yes it is. Kam only guy that came to play. But right now he is playing hero ball.
Kam is playing out of control last minute
X should continue to foul. We cant make them.

What an a$$hole

We've made 2.5x what they've attempted. Great!

Disappointing effort. No mention of dung.

[PGsHeroes32]

Good finish Jop

[Cream Biggums]

Wild how late the crowd is back to their seats every game lately. Should've exploded there after the Joplin and 1 and it's dead silent

[MuggsyB]

Bury this team in the next 6 mins. 

Beautiful dime and finish there.

You ever seen the bathroom and concession lines at half?  Gotta time your exit at the end of the 1st.

[MuggsyB]

Let's go now!

[TSmith34, Inc.]

X is setting some grownass picks

[MuggsyB]

That was a clear moving screen on X. 

[PGsHeroes32]

Good start to the half, dont get sloppy though

Stevie forced that pass when they were looking hopless

That is the most inconsistently called play in basketball.

How does a modern NBA arena with expectations for a sellout not have adequate staffing for the concessions?

Officially? It has to be official.

Ya.. not necessary at all

Introduce X to darkness by the 12 min mark. 

[MuggsyB]

Four mins of fury.

Darkness.

Everyone is happy.

Prepare for Providence.

Absolutely. Do not get lazy and let up. Put the foot on the pedal. Crush them. Dont let them cut the lead.
