Perhaps the fadeaway shot from the left side of the basket isn't the best choice, as both McGary and Hardaway have now airballed...
February 17th, 2013 at 12:16 PM ^
Someone help me understand how our offensive gameplan has become so stagnant compared to last year...with twice as much talent?
February 17th, 2013 at 12:27 PM ^
Off the ball are being defended much better and it seems the back cuts are really being taken out completely from the offense by opponents.
The same set is run by UM and if guys are supposed to be reading on cuts maybe they're doing a poor job. I think more screen slipping would be a good counter
February 17th, 2013 at 12:16 PM ^
That's 5 or 6 missed layups by McGary?
February 17th, 2013 at 12:20 PM ^
But your comment is slightly ridiculous. McGary has only taken 3 shots, including a bad jumper. Definitely not 5 or 6 missed bunnies. Come on now.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:23 PM ^
I guess I should've put the /s tag, didn't think it was necessary. Just commenting (sarcastically) on the missed inside shots.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:16 PM ^
It has already been said, but best Michigan jerseys I have seen in a while. Hardaway and MM need some better shot selections.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:17 PM ^
And now a missed layup. Wow
February 17th, 2013 at 12:17 PM ^
Cmon Blue WAKEUP!
February 17th, 2013 at 12:17 PM ^
Our bigs suck at layups
February 17th, 2013 at 12:18 PM ^
McGary. I feel embarrassed for the kid everytime he misses an open layup... Which is quite frequently...
February 17th, 2013 at 12:19 PM ^
Everybody is playing sloppy right now.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:23 PM ^
He said nothing about anyone playing sloppy. He was talking about missed layups in particular. Just making yourself look like an ass hile.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:17 PM ^
Great cut - then, of course, missed layup. /facepalm
February 17th, 2013 at 12:17 PM ^
This fucking team is so damn soft.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:17 PM ^
What is going on? Is this real life?
February 17th, 2013 at 12:17 PM ^
Take him out. Now. This is rediculous.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:17 PM ^
Fucking pathetic
February 17th, 2013 at 12:18 PM ^
What the hell is happening right now?
February 17th, 2013 at 12:18 PM ^
Stauskas needs to be more aware when we're facing a zone. GRIII made a great flash to the free throw line and Stauskas missed him. That's the key place to attack that zone.
As much as people get on GRIII, Stauskas has been equally slumping.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:18 PM ^
Honestly... What a joke...
Glenn Robinson plays some of the most uninspired basketball i've seen in my entire life...
Why do I feel like he's always coasting at like 75%?
Outside of Burke, NO ONE can create their own shots unless Tim is on fire.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:19 PM ^
Something's changed here in the last few weeks. We'll obviously come back to win this game but something is different lately with these guys. No idea what it is, but we've just looked like we're not trying very hard over the last 4-5 games.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:21 PM ^
How can you say we will comeback to win this game? Nothing is just granted without the work. With the way this team in playing, we could very well lose this game.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:24 PM ^
..Because we're playing Penn State in Ann Arbor. They're 0-12 in the Big Ten and no matter how much you think the sky is falling with this team we're not going to lose this game.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:29 PM ^
this team is not getting out on the break like earlier in season. When teams keep them in half court the team stands around and watches as burke tries to create.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:19 PM ^
I blame the orange t-shirts.
Seriously, they suck.
Long-live highlighter yellow.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:19 PM ^
Mitch needs to sit for a while...two missed layups and a fade away and standing and watching. Just awful
February 17th, 2013 at 12:19 PM ^
#WeOff
February 17th, 2013 at 12:19 PM ^
2012 team :(
February 17th, 2013 at 12:19 PM ^
We act like we don't even care right now. U just got embarrassed on Tuesday, u should be coming out with nothing but anger and desire to destroy ur opponent to prove that Tuesday was a fluke. At this point, it doesn't look like a fluke
February 17th, 2013 at 12:22 PM ^
Wrong. They came out with good energy. They're just out of sync offensively.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:39 PM ^
If u think that was good energy then u need to pick a different sport to follow
February 17th, 2013 at 12:43 PM ^
In the first 10 minutes and out rebounds u by 8 that is a lack of energy and effort. Rebounding Is about who wants it more and they want it more right now.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:20 PM ^
i got tickets to state college next week.. hope they don't play like this there
February 17th, 2013 at 12:20 PM ^
Is putrid. Do we even have a big man coach? It seems like anyone in the low post is unable to create a scoring opportunity with a quality move.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:20 PM ^
coach B needs to seriously rip these guys a new asshole. The defensive intensity, the movement on offense and the general level of shit giving is pathetic.
They are too good to be playing this bad.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:20 PM ^
Don't worry guys, neutral sites soon. We'll run it then, right?
February 17th, 2013 at 12:21 PM ^
This is a continuation of "hard-to-watch basketball". I'm not sure what the deal is but like mentioned there is no flow. Offense and defense are being made to look very average.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:21 PM ^
when is football season
February 17th, 2013 at 12:21 PM ^
Is visiting this basketball team. SOFT, can win in a shoot out but when things get physical they fold.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:24 PM ^
do you think its a West Virgina thing?
February 17th, 2013 at 12:21 PM ^
can't guard anyone.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:21 PM ^
I don't know if we can afford to play stauskas if he's going to defend like that.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:21 PM ^
in the world is going on????
February 17th, 2013 at 12:22 PM ^
GRIII sighting!!!
February 17th, 2013 at 12:22 PM ^
Okay this is getting annoying now
February 17th, 2013 at 12:27 PM ^
You want to go back on your KenPom projection? I still think they win but my within 5 points looks very likely.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:22 PM ^
Well, at least we're drawing fouls.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:22 PM ^
Offense is really, really, really struggling. I think people have kind of figured out Michigan's transition game but they also realize that Michigan's offense is limited if there is a good defense.
This may be an upset if Coach B. doesn't find a solution quickly.
February 17th, 2013 at 12:42 PM ^
Seems as if teams have figured out the formula to slow the tempo down on Michigan and limit the transition offense. Teams being on fire against us has more to do with our defense vs. them just being on, imo.
