Does anybody have knowledge on Charles Matthew’s rehab status, and possible prospects of playing pro ball?

Mo actually leads the league in both charges drawn and charges committed per minute. Both a walking bucket and walking whistle.

DJ WIlson on JB…
During the interview with McCormick, Wilson shared a little anecdote about Beilein that shows a fiery personality behind a calm demeanor in public. While it’s shown itself many times throughout his tenure in Ann Arbor, Wilson shared what it’s like to be on the receiving end of Beilein’s ire when things weren’t going as planned.

“We were in Indiana and Wisconsin,” Wilson said. “At Indiana, he threw a trashcan at halftime across the locker room. Wisconsin, I think it was during halftime, we had to take our jerseys off because he said that we weren’t doing the school justice and we don’t deserve to wear that Block M across our chest. We put them on towards the end of halftime. I think we ended up winning that game. Those are a couple of moments that stick out.”

I would do anything to be a fly-on-the-wall for Coach Beilein watching one of these Michigan games

You know the turnovers would be killing him but this is Juwan’s team now.

I’m sure he’d have been in the hands-on-head Duncan-Robinson-wide-open-for-3 pose from last week after about half of those turnovers.

Check our the MIA vs GSW game to see Poole and Robinson go against each other!

They’re both having fantastic games.

It was probably a little early for post-mortems for a twenty-year-old kid a few months removed from college, but I did have some worries that life under the magnifying glass on a team in the midst of such struggle could have lasting hobbling effects. OTOH, if he begins to string together lots of successes this could prove an incredible trial-by-fire boost to his career.

Here’s two nice shots of Duncan hitting a 3 in JP’s face. JP also hit one on Duncan’s face but there’s no good shot of that.

I agree, JP is young and has tons of upside. He needs to find his game in the NBA. My biggest concern is consistency but that should come in time. He’s not ready for the NBA game but is fortunate to get the minutes. He can be a great CNS guard IMO.

Yeah there’s no way he will keep shooting 27% all year. He’ll improve!

But what do Curry and Mullins know about shooting.

Duncan with his first career double double, 10 points and 10 rebounds.

Dunc was definitely expecting at least two more jabs, great anticipation by Swaggy Poole there.

I think it’s Dragic actually. But I like how Poole has made it more of a whole body fake instead of just a quick foot jab…

But he’s trying to prove us wrong…struggled again last night, he was 0 for everything. Note to JP…keep it simple, CATCH THE BALL…SHOOT THE BALL!
