Caleb has left 3 at the line now.

at this point I am pretty disappointed in Johns. Itā€™s one thing to be chaotic or timid or uncomfortable. But to just blank out all the timeā€¦itā€™s frustrating

Itā€™s fine to make a show of throwing your ripped shoe off the court but maybe not after we give up a 5 on 4 open three pointer while you were on the other end of the court examining it.

Heā€™s all of the above. The game has just never slowed down for him.

Yes I know BJJ is way more talentedā€¦but jace really wants it when he gets in there. Johns looks miserable. No Iā€™m not saying he should be a regular, he just reminds me of his dad back when he played minus the size and skill lol

Iā€™m not one to beat up young men, but he has suck little basketball iq

Pretty sure heā€™s frustrated refs didnā€™t blow a whistle earlier for equipment

Houstanā€™s free throw stroke isā€¦not great?
Seems very stiff in the knees, too much so in my opinion. We were always coached that your legs provide that lift/power for the shot, not your arms.

Decent half but Iā€™ve seen Michigan take too many small halftime leads and watch it completely fall apart in the 2nd half to feel good. Hopefully this team has turned the corner and that wonā€™t happen.

Then who would be the 4th PF?

Unfortunately I am getting some serious Minnesota vibes from this first half

Coach frustrated when Johns came up court slow and unsure when he lost shoe. Palm to head but didnā€™t say anything

Yes but if you use all arms you wonā€™t be affected by tired legs at the end of the game.

In my next life, I want to come back in Brandon Johnsā€™ body so at least someone wonā€™t put it to waste. Dunk the ball, FGS.

Then that planet Brandon where he acts like everyone will wait for him to put his shoe back on and gives up a 3 - Iā€™m watching on my computer, but I think Juwan was infuriated with that.

Is it fair to call this a canā€™t lose game?

I really like Jace. I think he can be what we hoped TWill would be. I worry Head Coach thinks heā€™s playing favoritism if he gives the kid too many minutes, so I need Jeanine to get on his case again.
