Game 16: Michigan at Minnesota Open Thread

I like Johns but he is NOT good away from the basket on D.

Carr and Oturu are really cooking now. Great

Love Howard! But really struggling with many of his coaching decisions as other coaches have adjusted.

This team has been a massive disappointment on defense.

Well crap we’ve gotta get some deflections, steals something to get us out and running

We had great D against Purdue at end of regulation and in OT. So, it is possible.

MattR with another terrible take.

Now we aren’t defending anyone in the paint. Gone ice cold now from three and Minni starting to hit theirs.

The story of this game is what happened after we went up 10 in the first half. Inexcusable rotation and stubborn defensive strategy are 100% on Juwan.

Someone needs to challenge him in the presser on this stuff

Yep. If we lose it’s because of Juwan’s decisions over the last 6 minutes of the first half.

Game getting away from them. Not sure we have the offense to come from behind on the road.

Think Pitino has a reason to be upset about that one…

I watched that replay three times, and John’s got hacked twice. There was no ā€œtie-upā€ or walk. Whistle blew before his second step hit the floor.

lol no way, Johns couldn’t dribble because he was in an arm bar. Carr also playing handsy D with impunity, a guy we really need to be in foul trouble

Look again.

Thought it was a clear foul on the first move - think they just waited to blow the whistle to see if it impeded him. Or something.

Brooks would be a really good player if he could just, well, shoot.
