Can’t spell elite without Eli

I still want to see PPP when Dickinson gets a touch vs. PPP when he doesn’t. Feels like either an automatic bucket, free throws, a pass to a wide open three or an assist every time he touches it on the block.

Both (Livers and Brown) seem to be regressing with their handle…and confidence heading in to the paint.

Livers inability to create his own shots a real problem. Cant take anyone off the bounce

Smith isn’t going to be very good in the paint, but he is the one guy who can get his shot in a hero ball moment from his time carrying Columbia. We just need that to be limited to about once per game…since the efficiency is going to be low.

Now this is the Franz from last year. Doing it all tonight.

Both have been borderline unplayable

Yeah. There comes a point in every Michigan season when you can say, ā€œYeah, we got a team.ā€ Think we’re seeing that tonight.

At the risk of hyperbole, I’m willing to call HD the second best 7 foot passer on the planet (after Jokic)

He’s fine in the paint…not so good at the rim

I’ve seen Smith force a few shots…this year. But most of the time he gets offensively aggressive it’s when we have gone cold and he’s showing leadership. I’m loving me some Mike Smith - some very pretty dimes at crunch time in several games thus far.
