U-M B-ball vs Syracuse Open Thread

Thats fucking BULLSHIT BUSH LEAGUE shit there.  That Syracuse player pushed Irvin in the air.  fuck that 

Where is the foul? You can't do that, lol.

 

I'm just glad he didn't pull an Evan Turner

I broke my radial head (elbow) playing basketball in 10th grade - not doing a tomahawk dunk, though, contrary to popular opinion.

I don't normally get pissed off at players, but fuck that syracuse kid for that crap after irvin's dunk...

How was that not a foul??? He clearly hit him while he was in the air. But damn Irvin got up!

What a dirty no call, undercut him mid air. On the other hand, Max Bielfeldt getting abused on the block every other possession.

Irvin needs to hang on the rim

That cuse player can eat a dick. Irvin could have been seriously injured.

Irvin undercut obvious foul, not called.

Put us in the locker room, ESPN!  Let's see what Beilein et al. got up there sleeves!  GO BLUE!!

Probably the worst draw we could have gotten for this game other than Duke. This young team isn't ready for that zone and we continue to be ice cold from the floor against any team with a pulse.

With the way the officials are making calls, you'd think we were playing at Assembly Hall or Cameron Indoor.

Kam 2-7.

If you told me MCullough would have 2 pts in the half I'd say we'd be up by 10.

 

Ugh looks like youth is finally getting to Michigan. We skated by with exceptional play from freshmen the past 3 years, but this year we're gonna be coming back to Earth. 

UM, shooting 36% from field 17% from 3.  Putrid.

Not a good half.  Not a dumpster fire either.

Lol thought spike nailed it

haha that was a waste of two minutes of hour lives hahaha awesome.

We have gotten some excellent three point looks that we just need to knock down. Chatman should have made the pass to Irvin in the corner on that possession out of the timeout.

This team has a very long way to go.  I don't think we're going to see anything like we have the last two years, and that's okay.

3-17 from 3.  Holy.

Zak Irvin getting undercut was a classic Wiscy hoops non-called foul.  That's some bullshit right there.  Also, I just breathed on a Syracuse player and got whistled for a foul

other than that he's too thin, slow on his defensive rotations, and his shot is flat? 

Other than that, though, the kid has the chance to be terrific.

We need him so desperately because Max is killing us every second he's out there and will kill us in any game against bigs with any ability. 

That was such a cheap shot

he's perfect for that spot in every way that a freshman like Chatman is not. 

I have to think that's an adjustment that they'll make in the second half. Have to believe that.

1 FT attempt by UM.

I listen to Greenburg talk about how the zone has forced us into contested threes and I wonder what game he is watching. A few of them sure. But not most.
