Michigan basketball vs Ohio Open Thread [Come on back if you want]
Okay folks, the time is almost here, big game, big opportunity to make a statement.
BEAT ohio!!!!
Edit: Party moves to the other thread: Michigan basketball vs Ohio Open Thread (2nd half). I'll open this one up again after the game finishes, I just can't follow both at this pace on my own. JGB.
Apologies for any problems this caused. Like I said, I just couldn't do both at the same time. Comments back on about twelve minutes after being disrupted.

Didn't set his feet. Would've liked to have seen Burke with the ball in that instance...Craft is on him and he absolutely CAN'T pick up a 3rd foul.
Give it to Burke and let him go right at Craft, he pretty much has to give you 2 points rather than commit a foul.
I know this and I'm sitting on my living room coach. The guys on the foul have to understand this as well.

Hardaway has been a huge liability this game. He's thrown away several possessions either with turnovers or bad shots.
January 13th, 2013 at 2:25 PM ^

January 13th, 2013 at 2:25 PM ^
Yeah let's have the kid playing the worst take the last shot...
January 13th, 2013 at 2:34 PM ^
January 13th, 2013 at 2:25 PM ^
Yes let's take an off balance 3 as the last shot...ugh
January 13th, 2013 at 2:27 PM ^
January 13th, 2013 at 2:27 PM ^
Fuck Hardaway, blown opportunities last 2 possessions.
January 13th, 2013 at 2:30 PM ^
January 13th, 2013 at 2:30 PM ^
But he's also a reason we're still even somewhat in it.
January 13th, 2013 at 2:31 PM ^
Stop with that sh*t.

Points return after national signing day (and I felt I gave you the benefit of the doubt by deleting the first "fuck Hardaway" post).
"Fuck Hardaway"- not okay, likely to lose ponts/ban.
"Hardaway is playing poorly and shouldn't be taking this shot"- perfectly acceptable, reasonable fan talk.
Don't be the guy that crosses the line.

Need GR3 to get more involved and need THJ to get less involved.
January 13th, 2013 at 2:34 PM ^
Exactly what I was thinking. GRIII is critical to our teams success. Also, Stauskas?

Ended the half on a good note, a 14-5 run or similar. If we come out of the gate at the half and pull the game to within a few, well, alright then.
Time for Ohio State to go 7+ minutes without a basket I say, hah.
January 13th, 2013 at 2:33 PM ^
...and nearly pulled it out. I think IU is better than ohio; I think we are better than Minny.
Still a lot of BB to be played. I like the zone D and if THJ gets going and Trey calms down...
January 13th, 2013 at 2:33 PM ^
Terrible half, but the deficit can be overcome. If we value the basketball like we usually do (no more no-look passes to Ohio) and just settle down and take high-quality shots, we can come back.

I'd like to see Stauskas rain fire from downtown 2 possessions in a row. That'd be nice.

The biggest thing is limit the turnovers, OSU has 15+ points off turnovers, if we can eliminate that and do our thing I've got great confidence. Ohio State is not that good of a team.
January 13th, 2013 at 2:36 PM ^
having his worst game of his career. I want to take him out but somehow Caris is playing as bad or worse.
Vogrich? I'm willing to give it a shot.

"Coming up next, a look into the Michigan locker room for their halftime adjustments."
And then a little piece of Brady Hoke dies inside.

hey now, that's advertising, not marketing's problem. (coming from a inspiring marketer)
January 13th, 2013 at 2:56 PM ^
The scorer's table almost exclusively shows OSU promotional stuff, not advertisements (except in that OSU promotional stuff might be seen as advertisements of OSU itself). Therefore it struck me as marketing (attempts to communicate the value of OSU's program to fans).
January 13th, 2013 at 2:37 PM ^
UM - 37% shooting 2, 50% 3, 8 TOs
OSU - 52% shooting 2, 44% 3 1 TOs

Only Albrect seems to have shown up to play, unaffected.... the rest of the team, especially Robinson, are playing both soft, and scared, but worst, intimidated.
This sucks because I actually expected this, but hoping I'd be wrong. When getting blown out like that, it isn't skill, but totally MENTAL.

It seems like the freshmen are actually playing better than the older players.
January 13th, 2013 at 2:39 PM ^
It is only 12 points. I want to see Nick S get involved. We need some SWAGGGG
January 13th, 2013 at 2:48 PM ^
Its not gonna come. Stauskas hasnt come close today.
January 13th, 2013 at 2:40 PM ^
9 turnovers and 16 OSU points off of turnovers. That's why.
January 13th, 2013 at 2:43 PM ^
How the fuck was that a blocking foul!? Are the refs mixing up which one's which?
