MBB v Northwestern Open Thread

Please. Sit Chatman. Please.

reminds me of that old 50s movie - the incredible shrinking man.  he's becoming less and less significant.

Chatman needs to go back to the basics and go through the layup drill

Jesus Christ Kam! Do something right! That was a 5 point swing that cost your team the lead.

So many missed lay ups. It's been happening all season.

This team has missed more uncontested layups than any other team I can rememver

Thanks for the 4 point swing Chatman. Pass the damn ball to LeVert.

Chatman will never be an even average big ten player. The 2014 and 2015 classes are a complete disaster

to the same team that played Villanova to a one-shot game before Thanksgiving. That is not a good sign.

please give him some minutes.  more athletic than chatman, better shooter, better running the floor, better finisher.  what am i missing? 

The general lack of focus and finishing is killing M this season. It's hard to watch the lackadaisical approach of some on the team.

fucking ridiculous.  how do you leave him alone under the basket?

another brick by irvin

This is just a bad team with mediocre players. Not even an NIT team

Too many roll players

But it's not like Trey Burke is coming in. Lots of players with holes in their games.

Where the shit is Doyle?

Hey, MAAR hit a layup!

is not so good.
Still love 'em, but geesh.

That rejection sums up Donnal's career. Soft. 

So soft, go hard to the rim and can't get blocked without a foul called.

nice move but why not at 6'9" taking that up strong with two hands and dunking.  you are 6 fucking 9.  dunk it.

MAAR looking good

We basically are playing with 9 scholarships because chatman Donnal Wilson and hatch can't provide anything useful this year

to do something.

Yep. Play 13 whole seconds and then go right back to commercials.

What pisses me off is nobody gets angry about how awful they are. Mark Donnal has to be the softest player in the B1G. The idea that this collection of players will be significantly better next year is silly. Burke and Hardaway may have been underrated out of high school, but they were also very good as freshmen. What promise has Donnal or Chatman shown? They are straight up bad at basketball. They're bad at every facet of the game. There's no reason a program like Michigan should be so dramatically out-recruited by a school like Ohio State, whose tradition in basketball is very comparable. 

Has make 1 soon right? Need a flurry from him.

Chatman has the athleticism of a 40 year old.

We are screwed

They should just drive every time and get fouled, they have a better chance of scoring doing that.

outside shots, we have no hope.

Pretty bad foul call there.

they are working harder on D this half, except for the occasional forgetting about olah near the basket.

At least we can say nobody's going pro.

We are playing 2 men short (No Spike and now No Doyal) and people are surprised that we. Are in a close contest. Gut check time?

Announcers haven't mentioned it once
