Game 1: Bowling Green at Michigan Open Thread

Drake beating K St 72-63 with 1:10 to go.

It’s finally time, after this long quarantine it almost doesn’t feel real, Go Blue!

Who thinks Livers will have at least 1 Slam either ally oop or transition.

I’d hammer the over at 1! And hopefully much safer landings this year

As the leader of the #HunterDickinsonHive, I feel obligated to say I am bummed he’s not starting.

My bet: he plays more minutes than Davis.

I’d wait to see the minutes distribution after the game. Hunter will probably play more minutes, and even if he doesn’t, he’ll be starting soon.

At least Michigan won’t be too impacted by no fans… Crisler is a morgue for most games.

I’ve never really understood the ā€œdon’t start the better player but play him more minutesā€ thing. ā€œLet him watch the speed, get the game flow, etc.ā€ I guess…idk. I’d prefer to play the best players from the tip.

Yeah, to me it kinda makes sense only if it’s to ease freshman into the college game.

But also some energy players do better off the bench.

Probably more to do with the fact that its the first game, Austin is a captain, Hunter is a freshman, etc. I don’t think you are looking at it as ā€œlet’s start Austin all year if we clearly think Hunter is betterā€

Davis with a early shoutout to the pod

This lineup looks incredibly stagnant offensively

I feel like they’ve got a bunch of wide open looks…

They’ve gotten like 3 or 4 wide open threes

Ball has been moving pretty well i feel. Just missing open shots.

I think the offense has looked pretty decent. Just got overloaded on one side and were bailed out by a foul.
