MBB vs. Memphis Battle 4 Atlantis Round 1 Open Thread

LFG...get your popcorn

makin' easy money...PHIS.  The team needs this one.  BET 

I want 15 shot attempts for Tarris Reed.

LFG! Get this W! Go Blue! MICHIGAN vs EVERYONE! 

Very senior laden team. 

Michigan scheduled a game against the Blue Man Group?

Why have we always been so bad at inbounding the basketball? 

Really wanted to go to this event but it wasn't worth missing THE GAME!

I like the chemistry of this team regardless of record. They seem to like playing together as a unit. Glad Juwan is back on the bench but unsure about the roles of the coaches. 

I don't think they're necessarily very but they're more active than us, and we seem frantic a bit. Weird combo

Can we get some offense that is not a non Dug player bringing it up and leaving their feet before there is a pass.

6 minutes, 5 turnovers. Bad recipe for winning

7 minutes in and this is already really ugly.  Offense is stagnant. 

This is just a one on one fest. Olivier loses the ball and gets it at half court and refuses to pass. 

Defense looks better but offense has been a struggle so far

Shooting 5-15 from 2 and 1-5 from 3 with 5 turns is not the start I was expecting 

We are so bad defending ball screens.

Dug is just amazing in the open the court.

We look sped up.

Duggy getting loose out there

Headband Twill is back and it’s not good

Get Nimari away from Crisler and he’s a different man…lol

Sit cheddar, ffs

That's a fucking back court 

Dug is giving up some serious size. 

For any sneakerheads out there, what model is Dug wearing?

I would love if the refs called this game evenly, but apparently they are not. Memphis is being allowed to be much more physical than we are

STOP TURNING THE BALL OVER

Except for Nimari, not getting shots to fall, need to value the ball better 

9 turns already

What is our identity?  Crisp ball movement?  Fast break? Pound it inside? 3 point shooting?  Defense?

We’ve got some talent, but it’s going to take some sorting.  Way too early to panic.

Jesus

Everything this team does on offense looks so labored. It takes 25 seconds to get a shot off. And then the opponent just casually makes a shot in the paint. 

How was that not an and-1? 

They are really struggling on offense.

Lots of physical play being allowed at the Memphis goal while the whistle isn’t the same on our end. 

This looks more like the team I imagined heading into the season. They're struggling badly on offense, besides Nimari no can hit a 3, they're not moving the ball super well. Definitely playing better defense this game though.

This Team has potential but they are exasperating with all the turnovers and lapses in defense

prolly a little groggy from the trip to atlantis...

Frustrating game, TWill plays so out of control.

Reed needs to quit traveling 

Olivier needs to get going.

And again, quit turning the ball over!!!

How are we this bad defending ball screens?
