Game 12: Air Force at Michigan Open Thread

Michigan Basketball

Thought we might see DDJ for Simpson, but I agree with Brooks.

Everyone non-Teske and I have terrible fears of him getting in foul trouble that game. Even Teske’s been beat a few times in the post today and these guys are like 1/20th of Wesson’s nice array of moves this year. But that OSU game, it seems like it’s going to be a real race to see who gets in foul trouble first - Wesson or Teske. And the non-Teske guys look like they’ll get eaten alive by Wesson.

He can only do that going one direction, right?

84

It isn’t really about Livers stopping Wesson one-on-one, the question is whether Wesson can defend a pick-and-pop and whether Livers is making open threes.

This is going over 129.5 for sure. Unfortunately for me

Livers, Brazdeikis, even a double - I watched a few more minutes of Wesson today and he’s making shots in the post from all sorts of crazy angles. He’s a load with the full YMCA game and he popped out at least once today. I’m concerned that they’re playing at a much higher level than us the last three weeks.

Are we ignoring their 2 point win over bucknell?

I’ve caught them in dribs and drabs - the extended time I’ve watched them, Wesson looks for real and they are so much deeper than us. It was fun to see Bucknell push them, but that game only tightened late, I think. I also can’t ignore the trouble we’ve had with them over the years.

That was Iggy’s man.

91

My point is just that how a Princeton offense team with two 6-7 posts plays against Michigan will look completely different than a prodding center like Wesson. Situations aren’t really comparable.

92

Time for subs. Who’s it gonna be?

93

You’re counting on more help, is what you’re saying?

I’m just watching how guys are going for ball and shoulder fakes and dips and Wesson has that full arsenal and our guys aren’t looking as stout against that stuff as I thought they did during the early stretch. I was pleasantly surprised by Iggy’s post defense, for example, and that’s taken a step backward.

94

Wow, that was a sick pick by Z

95

CM seems to be commandeering the offense a bit this half…

96

You got a chance here Chezaroo!
