MBB vs. Penn State thread
If they play man just go iso against their PG with three fouls (ideally with Trey). He'll either foul out or give up easy buckets.

Horford needs more run. He moves his feet.
Very nice start to the half.

Horford. The big fella brought some intensity out of the locker room and i like it.
I'd like to see Nik drive more, since he's an exceptional FT shooter
"Welllllllll..."
This is the Michigan team i know off lets kick some ass
Just FYI, you are an idiot.
"It would be a travesty, it would be ridiculous to all of a sudden come back and get the feeling back, get the health back, feel good again and then all of a sudden go throw some other colors on my shirt and go coach."
Alright, let's hold them to 4 second half points
HAIL.
JUST LET THEM HAVE THE LAYUP... WHY YOU FOUL?
Well, there's the dumbest foul of the year.
Think this is just a classic "we just went through a hellish gauntlet of games and psu is supposedly terrible so we'll sleep to a close victory" type games. I admit that size is killing us and will potentially be an early tourney loss issue (despite the tourney being a guard-fest) but we did just finish a stretch of conference games unlike any I've ever seen. Freshman need to get their strength and confidence back, too. Silver lining? The B10 is so good this year that the first couple rounds of the tourney, IF READY, should feel easy to this team regardless of seed.
That should be nominated for most perplexing call of the year.
HAIL.
Because he was pretty poor on help defense.
Hopefully Morgan will hold off on that 4th foul so he can get some minutes.
So Penn St. is in foul trouble and short handed? Then drive the fucking ball.
Forever For Michigan
I don't know what happened to Horford there. He was looking all over for his guy who was right in front of him.
Stauskas bomb!

I don't know if anyone in the NCAA shoots worse than 48% from layup, but okay.

Shit there goes my prediction of only 4 PSU points in the 2nd half.
HAIL.

was filmed in my hometown at my public park, just noticed that. Woah.
They just look lazy today for the most part. All of these fouls and several of them have been really unnecessary. It's tough to watch this team get progressively worse over the last few weeks.
I think learners and leaders should be the new division names.

Good to see Stauskas and GRIII more involved, now if Mitch McGary can get going to his potential too, I'll be really happy.
HAIL.
It must be really frustrating trying to figure out what they'll call as a charge.
Yea. It has to be. The thread last week, I think, was a good discussion on the "Charge" call now-a-days. I personally think it's ruined the game in ways. But to be out there playing and figuring out how a referee will call a certain "play" and to have it vary in consitency, has to be a very underestimated part of the game.
Edit: Especially for a freshman. GRIII picks up a charge call before what would have been a good drive and dish made three by Vogrich.
To everyone who was talking mad shit about Stauskas earlier: 13 pts, 50% fg rate, 4 assists, and 1 rebound. Granted his defense hasn't been great, he is a big part of our narrow lead.
+1 (literally) for taking the step back on that shot.

Maybe if you didn't turn the game off you'd know this.
"It would be a travesty, it would be ridiculous to all of a sudden come back and get the feeling back, get the health back, feel good again and then all of a sudden go throw some other colors on my shirt and go coach."
Stauskas with a couple nice looks on that possession.
HAIL.
Seriously someone predicted 3 alley oop dunks for Glenn.
Vogrich comes in and PSU puts up a 3.....
