They haven't played like a garbage team for a month now. Time to reset your expectations. The season is lost but they aren't bad anymore

57th in T rank since 1/5. 41st since 1/17

What a gymnastics hoop to jump through.

Tie goes to the birthday boy!

[MuMark]

Just better.  Should not lose to anyone except St Johns and UConn the rest of the year.

We are better but we haven't won a road game yet......we will be a big dog on our next game at Nova.....certainly hope for an upset but expecting a win is silly.

What a gymnastics hoop to jump through.

Saying the team has been playing solid for a month is a gymnastics hoop?

Won the last three at home. Led at half in the last two road games. They've been fine. They buried themselves, but they've been fine for a month.

If you don't like facts then that's your issue.

[tower912]

Yes.   Obvious recent improvement.  The defense today may have been the best all season.  And MU made 3s.
4 of the last 5 at home.   The next step is snagging a conference road win.   Solid upward trajectory.

I'll be there to hang the "led at half while away twice" banner next home game.

Chase was terrible in the first half.

Adrien was locked in all game.

Adrien.

Edited:(Woops so used to typing Nigel that I just did without realizing. Adrien is my pick. Adrien was locked in from the jump. 2 solid halves of basketball.)

[MU2007]

Chase gets it from me mainly for the fact in the second half he actually let the game come to him and stopped forcing. This is the Chase we need.

[We R Final Four]

Any game fans are watching of this garbage team is deserving of a stud of the game itself.


As for actual players, its either stevens or James. Ross is absolutely not him.

So....you watched?

[Mr. Nielsen]

Adrien Stevens

[pbiflyer]

Just rewatched. Stevens. Easy choice. Nigel and Chase runners up.

[MU86NC]

Steven's... SOTG

[MarquetteMike1977]

Will go with Adrien Stevens for SOTG. But am fine with Chase since it was his birthday. 

[MU82]

Yes.   Obvious recent improvement.  The defense today may have been the best all season.  And MU made 3s.

Very nice defensive game for Gold.

I'll throw in Villanova as a concern but MU is good enough to beat them.  Part of my confidence is the freshmen and sophomores and part of it is the conference is terrible this season.

Also AS for SOTG

Stevens. Great composure for a frosh, defense, 3s.

Yes, Chase hit some spot up 3s in the 2nd half, which was nice, but his out-of-control play in the 1st half was nightmarish.

[jfp61]

its clearly stevens.

[Scoop Snoop]

Stevens. I was going to go with him anyway, but TSmith's post above made it clear why.

But I still wish Chase a belated happy birthday!

Toss up between Chase and AD for me.

Ajayi with 19 boards, Royce with zero is crazy. Absolute turd game on the boards for us, but when you shoot 20%+ eFG% better than your opponent, it's very difficult to lose.

Did we start 2/12 from 3FG? So like 12/19 the rest of the way? That'll do it.

[Scoop Snoop]

(stevens)

Give Rocky credit for being up front about it. He replied to a post by me regarding his counting votes with something like "#scoop snoop thinks I count votes!"

[tower912]

Toss up between Chase and AD for me.

Adrian Dantley?
Anno domini?
Anthony Davis?
Unique to you Adrien Stevens nickname?
