Poole with 8 maybe 9 at the first media timeout and all of it is within the natural flow of the offense.

Yup, if they’re gonna keep taking off balanced, off the dribble long twos I’ll be very pleased.

Poole 8, Northwestern 7. Free throw to come.

The only Northwestern I’ve seen was during the 2nd half against Indiana but good call to everyone that said they were going to have trouble scoring. It definitely looks like that’s going to be the case.

Poole doing a 2013 Burke vs. Northwestern impression? let’s see…

Perfect start, tbh. Banked three and a super difficult, late shot fall away. The Pardon dunk was a play with really good man and ball movement that left Poole confused, in a spot he should have tagged Pardon rolling.

But the play design was extremely good, very difficult for JP there.

Poole’s good for a random easy miss every game it seems. It’s odd because he makes a ton of tough finishes.

Michigan looks to be switching almost all of Northwestern’s off ball screens. Wildcats are versatile because they play so many wings, but switching all of that action has been an effective counter.

Lol how does Z make those

I love the fact that that’s a consistent shot in Simpson’s repertoire.

Man if he can keep beating people of the bounce like that Z is a huge difference maker.
