What, me worry?

Portugal, The Man version.  Not Mad Magazine version.
1.  Bad halves happen.
2.  Good halves happen.  Making shots and getting stops helps.
3.  Chase was a man tonight.  One more thread that can be 'accidentally' deleted.
4.  The team is tough minded and resilient.   So is the coach.
5.  Turnovers, not usually a problem, were tonight.  Out of character.
6.  Tre had a game.  Not quote SOTG worthy.  Too bad.  That would have been an epic prediction to get right. Only productive sub in the second half.
7. Jean Felix night for the whole Georgetown team.  Crazy.
8. I don't gamble.  Games like this reinforce that decision.
9. I trust there were no hot takes in the game chat.  I will read it tomorrow.
10.  W.  Get Thievie healthy and develop the rest of the bench behind Tre.
11.  Did they find anything on Oak Island?

The game thread remains undefeated in its hilarity and bad takes.

Definitely one we could've given away the way it was going. Great second half effort. Georgetown is tough. Even when we got momentum they would not go away.

Another Grind. Curious to see GT V UCONN

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

That was stressful. Gtown much better than I thought. Glad to see Cooley have that program pointed in the right direction. Some legit talent on that squad.

Sorber is a dude

Congrats to MU.

Positives:  Finding a way to win another ugly one and closing out a win again

Negatives:  Having to win ugly again and the turnovers

Buckle up, the rest of league play is going to be a grind, methinks.  A little Big East basket brawl

[forgetful]

FTs matta. eFG% no matta.

Game thread is designed for bad takes.  All immediate emotion and no time for thought.  It's excellent at what it does.

[mreezybreezy]

12/12 FTs in the final 4 minutes

[wadesworld]

Cooley is going to have his Georgetown teams play just as physical (sometimes bordering on dirty) as his Providence teams did.

[warriorfred]

Georgetown may be a legitimate tournament team.  I need to see more evidence, but I will pencil them in.

Great win. Games against Cooley won't be easy. He's really establishing a culture there. I think Providence fans are just starting to realize that they got the short end of the stick on that trade.

KenPom had this 79-66, fwiw

MU inexplicably missed at least 5 points worth of shots so pretty accurate

[milwaukee expat]

Shaka playd alot of subs in the first half and Stevie's +/_ must be huge.  When he sat and we had the frosh in we got creamed.  If Shaka just played his best players maximum minutes we would be ken pom faves in offense and defense.  But he plays the whole team as part of his general philosophy on retention and development and that is going to mean 2 seeds for a decade.  Love this team and program.

[MarquetteDano]

Amazing that Cooley did that without Epps. Very concerned about the game in DC assuming he plays.

That zone D of theirs...they clobber every offensive rebounder. Gold on at least 3 occassions got smacked in face or head trying to get off rebound.

Welcome to the Big East I guess.

Not only that but you can't really play a short rotation the entire game. And the starters were in plenty when Georgetown was making their run. The energy was bad on defense.

That result will most certainly have a negative effect on our NET ranking😂

Yup. And then while 1 (and oftentimes 2) of the guys crashing the offensive glass get shoved out of bounds or to the ground, Georgetown has a numbers advantage going the other way.
