MU/CMU Game Thread

Good lord, Royce gets hit in the shoulder on the offensive rebound while standing flat footed and fouls to top it off

[Vander Blue Man Group]

One of the things that's very noticeable on offense is how elite TK and Kam were with their ball placement on passes off the dribble.

So many of our passes are nowhere near where a guy can catch and shoot, and that's even on what seem to be pretty basic passes.

We also hold the ball way too long and overdrible.  We're not sharp at all when help comes or are trapped.

Brutal turn from DO. 

[MUEng92]

It look like they held Royce's shorts on that play

NM they didn't but still fouled him

[MuggsyB]

Will we get a shot off here?

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

DO not helping his case for PT out there.

[BM1090]

DO's lack of progression has been the biggest disappointment for me

[MuggsyB]

Ridiculous no call on CMU.

Shaka would never s

Caedin Hamilton might be the most unskilled player in the history of
Marquette. He can't shoot, can't rebound, can't move on defense, and has a hook shot that never goes in. Shaka not getting transfers for this year is absolutely unacceptable. Tre Normans right behind him

Shaka would never start such a player

I fully expect MU to win handily to suck me back in thinking, "well maybe they just had a rough stretch and they aren't as bad as they have appeared"

I appreciate MU not sucking me back in so far

[Skatastrophy]

CMU and Marquette should both join the A10.

[PointWarrior]

I don't understand, Marquette played a really competitive first half against a crapty mid-major (#308 Kenpom) at home.

I appreciate MU not sucking me back in so far

Half of the players on this team have stone hands. Ross just needs to say to these mofos, "Step aside. I'm averaging 40."

[TSmith34, Inc.]

I'm starting to believe that Owens is actually Ramsey, given he seems to have his head up his rectum far too often.

[1SE]

Any bright spot from that half?

That it's over?

I feel exactly the same. Sad to see.

Owens got his minutes, even though it was behind Phillips getting his.  That turnover up 7 with ball was not good for him.  So much for Shaka shorting the rotation.


Gold was not good and Shaka benched him for like 9 to 10 minutes.  The CMU big guy was killing him inside and Gold had zero points and zero rebounds.  He came back in and hit a three, then burned by the CMU big man again when CMU had 2.4 on shot and he made it.  Ben back to bench with Shaka giving him an earful.

MU went to the line 17 times, missing four.  CMU did not go to the line.  Difference in the game.  24 point favorites today, maybe Shaka can inspire them.

[1SE]

That were winning despite being out performed in rebounds, 3p put, steals and assists? But we're winning the block battle!

[MuggsyB]

Two good dimes by NJ. 

[Duane6]

Good D Caedin you absolute scrub

[MUEng92]

Ugh, Ben's ice cold from 3.  Not close on them either

[1SE]

It's great having a stretch 4 that can't hit wide open 3s from the corner.

[Johnny B]

God Clarke cannot catch a ball
