Go blue

I hate watching first halfs on tv

 

[Monster]

only 4 home games left, ladies and gentlemen. We need to beat the teams we're expected to beat. That means the Iowas of the B1G.

 

[Monster]

that's tough. played a full 35 of defense, ball off smot, then a quick two by the hawkeyes.

 

[Monster]

shit. really bad start. looks like the NW game all over again.l

 

[wheels002]

We look really flat on both ends of the court. We need to drive to the basket.

we need to do something...

Feels like Iowa is killing us. Luckily, it doesn't show on the scoreboard.

 

[Monster]

and 1. lol

how is it that we get the lead here? 5 turnovers, burke on the bench...

 

[Monster]

why do we look like this? were the guys out late last night or maybe Coach is working them too hard? They just look dead right now.

Smotz has been just awful shooting the ball in Big 10 play so far. With today's game he is 9/35 from the field. 25.7%. He really needs to step it up.

Don't worry, Michigan has been a streaky team all year, they need to get some buckets in the lane, but luckily Iowa is shooting bad too.

i'm not worried that we're shooting poorly. I'm more worried that the shots are TERRIBLE. Hardaway's hitting the front of the rim. Novak is airballing. Smotrycz is missing wide open shots. we have something like 6 turnovers. I don't know, it just seems like the guys are tired. Either that or really rusty, which doesn't make sense either.

 

[allshouldbleedblue]

this is the only problem i have with only having morgan right now. shotting cold and no inside game to go to.

 

[Monster]

Of course we get the good Iowa team.

 

[allshouldbleedblue]

why do they look so passive?

 

[Monster]

I don't care that burke has two fouls. B has to roll the dice and put him in there or this is going to get out of hand.

 

[Monster]

Jared Sullinger is Fat and Overrated. Take that for motivation, porky. FUck Ohio!

They did just play a real tough overtime game on Wednesday night. Then the travel to Iowa for an early game, fatigue could be an issue and Bielien doesn't go deep into his bench at all. Plus they were won to NW, comebacks take a lot of energy. They'll win, Iowa is god awful.

 

[wheels002]

so mad at this team right now. They just look so asleep. It reminds me of the football game @Iowa. We should have won just didnt show up

 

[Monster]

shitty way to end the half.

wow 23 points.
