Game 24: Wisconsin at Michigan Open Thread

I thought the calls on us were fair. Some missed calls early but nothing egregious. Gonna be a tough game

It’s not really the fouls whistled on us… it’s the fouls that weren’t whistled on Wisconsin

Should be up by two. Force a tough shot and then give up a tip-in. Blah.

Sounds like a great crowd at Crisler today !

Very weird half. It felt like we seemed like the clear better team, but Happ was just unstoppable. We got a lot of good looks. Just need to make them.

Would like to see more Livers at the 4 in the second half with other options struggling. Iggy was 1-8 and Matthews almost had a trillion that half.

Ignas Brazdeikis just 1-of-8 from the floor in the first half (0-3 from 3).

Jordan Poole leads U-M with 8 on 3-of-4 (2-2 3pt) shooting. He was great in the first half in Madison but struggled in the second.

Iggy and Matthews were 2-10 for 5 points in the first game. So far today they’re 2-12 for 4 points. If we can’t one good half from them against Wisconsin this will end as an L.

Idk. They’ve been running really good offense. If they just hit a couple threes it’d be a different game. I know you could the same about us at the rim and in transition…but I’ve been impressed by Wisconsin so far. They’re a tough out

It’s going to be a lot different between Happ vs Teske now. Teske got out of there with one foul. I suspect he’ll play him more aggressively in the second half.

Whisky is very good at taking away a team’s athleticism. Iggy and charles #s Agst them a problem,.

I don’t like the Livers at the 5 switch everything D on that last possession. They can’t score against our normal D with Happ out. I don’t know why you give them the switch onto the Trice for free.

Whatever on the fouls. Poole’s offensive was ridiculous. Livers phantom foul was awful. There’s a freakin picture of whoever holding Teske’s arm on the shot. There’s Happ swatting Teske across the arm on a layup. No you guys are right, the officiating has been great.

At least we haven’t seen 5 flops for charges.

Studio hosts focusing on UM’s lack of defense. A defense on pace to give up 54 points.

Steve Lavin just suggested that Michigan goes to a zone. LOL. No wonder you’re not coaching anymore, Steve.

Steve Lavin: “Does Michigan go into a zone defense in the second half?”

Hey Steve, this is why you were awful at UCLA

Poole knocked over a stationary defender, lovers jumped into a dunking iverson. I think we all agree they missed a few on wiscy, but come on man :wink:
