Crazy strikes when there are no rebounds to be had.

I love that we’re a great ft shooting team.

Smith and Wagner with 4 and 3 assists, respectively, in the half is how this offense should work. Hopefully Livers and Brown can get their offense on track in the 2nd half.

Glad we’ll be shooting at the basket that sucks the ball in this half

Only watched it in spurts. And only saw when we were doing good. Were the bad moments really bad? I would assume so if we are only up by 2

He reminds me of Dickie V. Just wants to hear himself talk.

Maryland could not miss from 3 but it wasn’t pure luck IMO. Mostly good looks.

The bad moments was just insane 3 point luck for Maryland.

Franz is making great things happen with the ball. I like that he’s taking & making mid-range instead of the hard drives earlier in the year that ended in charges and frustration.

In my opinion, no. They just shot the lights out. A few open ones cuz we struggled to guard the small ball lineup, but they made 3-4 very well contested threes and that’s the only difference between this being a double digit lead and a 2-point game.

Maryland is going to miss a ton of 3s and there will be many long rebounds.

Brown has to play better this half to get this win. Hit open threes and stop dribbling into chaos.

Yeah, guys who make the most threes on the team getting open looks and making threes… obviously there’s some “luck” that they shot that well, but those were shots you want to prevent on the scouting report.

The main bad thing was that we gave up some open 3s on the pick and pop. But they made every one of them.

Scott is 4-of-4, Hamilton is 3-of-4…They are the pick and pop threats that Michigan has no one to guard.

Scott is at 52% on the year and Hamilton is at 42% on the year.

Serious question…is the reason we are getting nothing but “late night infomercial ads” because they lost sponsors when the bowl game was canceled? Geez, flex seal, alien tape, tac glasses, underwater razors, night vision binoculars… I am expecting that exercise pedal device for old people soon.

Turgeon is in the command center and will tweak those settings.

What sort of letter grade would you give Michigan for that half? Is a road lead always an A?
