Four straight empty offensive possessions. Duncan missing that open 3 just killed any momentum Michigan had on offense. Ugh.

Yes, the offense has been struggling. It has nothing to do with “momentum” or a missed three, though. It’s just the way basketball — and randomness in general — work. You only show up to complain, and your complaints usually have no basis in reality.

"You only show up to complain."

That's complete b.s. I have lavished praise on the team and Beilein over the past few games. And I wasn't complaining here, just pointing out that the offense was in a funk. Which it was!

If you’re in legal guarding position the whole time. The hole “feet must be set to draw a charge” thing is a myth. You need to be squared up to the offensive player, and the offensive player needs to initiate the contact. It was the correct call because he was facing Rahkman dead on the whole time.

He lowered his shoulder and drove into a defender who was in legal guarding position. It’s a charge — just like Wisconsin’s Davison should have drawn twice yesterday against MSU. They were incorrectly called blocks yesterday, though.
