Yeah it helps to criticize in sure Coach Howard will tune in and make different decisions based on this chat.

Can’t play much worse than they have today, but Juwan is on the list of people having bad days. The rotation has been garbage

Smith has been terrible today and not one player on Michigan has been good. Just an awful performance just chalk up the loss and be ready for Maryland and hope Brooks ready for Tuesday.

Refusing to play Dickinson is wild.

Dan Dakich praising the decision and saying “I love what he’s doing, you’re not gonna play well, you’re gonna sit” is even wilder. Should he sit Mike Smith too?

Dickinson finally coming in

507

Zeb will be good someday, he’s unplayable in this spot right now, unfortunately. He was a one man 7-0 run at the worst possible time.

just some stuff you dont expect to see out of this team. letting a guy go coast to coast for an uncontested layup ~off a made basket~ is inexcusable

Discussing basketball is more fun when the conversation isn’t just “yay I love our team”.

I have no idea why we aren’t just using Johns and making Carr and Robbins defend in space, even if does mean the occasional double.

I guess teaching Dickinson a lesson at the expense of going from 30% likely to win down to say 15% in a Big 10 road game without Brooks isn’t necessarily bad coaching long-term at all, but it’s frustrating to watch.

I think it’s fair to note that losing a senior leader, even a quiet one like Eli can and does change the mindset of a locker room. Easy to say next man up but I’m reminded of last year’s Wisconsin game.

Same issues as last year. Clearly he has some sort of issue with figuring out how to stagger minutes and keep your best players on the court. This year’s rotation has been super easy to manage until now.

What do you want this game thread to be then? Just 550 comments of Go Blue?

Amazing what having a center who can go up and get a pass does. Davis played way way too many minutes in this game.

519

Playing Williams right now is mind boggling.

520

We’re gonna need several whistles our way to get back in this game, and to make some shots.

521

That’s game. Well hopefully we don’t play this bad again. Talk about laying an egg
