MU/Johnnies Game Thread

The goal should be to not allow a layup or dunk next possession

Nevermind

[Viper]

Since up 24-9 we've been outscored 63-34. Damn

[Norm]

We lost our poise and composure.  Incredibly frustrating.

A timely time out to settle us down this half would have helped - not after we give up a huge run against us.

Ben hasn't taken a shot.    Wow

Ben no points, 4 rebounds, no shots
Zuby 29 points, 7 rebounds


Tough night for the big man so far. And Shaka has Gold guarding 25 feet from basket, quick pass underneath....laayup

1 for last 17 from three, the Shaka offense not working tonight

Oh well, got it to four, then Kam turnovers on three straight hurt. Back to the drawing board

[WellsstreetWanderer]

Our predictable iso offense doesn't utilize Ben 

[MUEng92]

Since up 24-9 we've been outscored 63-34. Damn

I would have been totally fine not knowing that stat

[CountryRoads]

Really not seeing any benefits to leaving starters in at this point

[mugrad_89]

Hate to pick on Kam, but his ill advised turnover when we were down six with the ball turned out to be the killer.

He has to be a threat.  Zero shots can't happen.

Lost our poise, like usual. Coaching staff deserves a lot of blame for this. Who works with our shooters? Might want to change that up next year.

First year with Shaka that hasn't been enjoyable, this team has been bad for so long. Our best win in months is a team that probably needs help to make the dance

[jesmu84]

How did Joplin "travel" on that?

[ATL MU Warrior]

Jop must have tripped on his own feet

[Warrior of Law]

Is it too soon to consider a total roster reset for next year? There isn't a non senior worth keeping. The 2nd half of this season has been tough.

[NCMUFan]

On defence, not sure why Ben always plays so far away from the basket.  He is not a guard.
Always ends up one of our guards is trying to defend a guy 6'-11" 270 lbs.

[warriors141]

In Shaka we trust

[MU24]

Joplin man...yikes

Why would you watch if it's not enjoyable?

Hope Broeker put 'falling ass backwards into the NCAA tournament' on his first year goals

Gold is rarely on Zuby because he has to switch off. Jop and Kam haven't been playing very good position D. Bad night for Jop to play a bad game. Gold picking up Wilcher 30' from the hoop is a bad situation.

We had our chances.  A couple momentum changers killed us.
The TechFoul by Chase.  When Kam blew by his man but decided to pass out and was picked off.
Then they went down court.  Sank a layup and was fouled.

You should probably give up on the program.  Maybe terminate watching and posting on Scoop.  St. John's is a f'in load on their home court.  Our guys give it their all and you post garbage like this?

[The Sultan]

They've been ranked all season.

[PointWarrior]

Shaka uses timeouts like he uses aircraft carriers and mid-range jumpers.

[NickelDimer]

I don't think Gold is who Shaka thinks he is

I think the problem is if this is their 'all'
