Michigan BBall vs B1G Transfer U (Iowa St) Game Thread
December 3rd, 2011 at 1:25 PM ^
Iowa State has some talent, but I don't think it matches Michigan. The score is showing that now, but you could tell even earlier in the game - we just needed our shots to drop.

IDK, it is probably closer than you think
Rival rankings coming out of HS
Royce White 5*
Anthony Booker 4*
Chris Allen 4*
Korie Lucious 4*
Throw in a bunch of 3* and this is a pretty talented bunch, just not a team yet.
I gotta agree with Kelser, they need Royce White to score and somebody else to be the point guard

If we can get this kind of production from Morgan consistently going into Big Ten play we'll be in real nice shape.

Man I guess we are going to have to hear that Novak is a 3 time captain every game
December 3rd, 2011 at 1:19 PM ^
Counted about 4-5 shots by THjr that should have gone in. Metric is having a good outing today. MUCH better than this effort in the va game. Hitting the board also...

Better if your not sitting on the bench in foul trouble half the game.
December 3rd, 2011 at 1:26 PM ^
Give Morgan another year and he will be lethal on that 12-15 foot pick and pop play. Going to be fun watching McGary and Morgan play the high low game.

is missing all of dmo's dimes
December 3rd, 2011 at 2:20 PM ^
Yes Morgan does miss DMo, but it will be less and less as the season progresses and this team learns to play together. Most of the time Morgan's biggest nemesis is Morgan. He needs to learn to not make the silly fouls which result in extended time on the bench with foul trouble.

Does anyone else think that Novak is the next Brian Scalabrine in the NBA? I just came up with this thought, and while I have little doubt that Novak won't be able to contribute to most teams, a little part of me thinks he'll go undrafted, work out with a team, and be like their 11th or 12th man who gets minutes in blowouts.
As a fan of Scalabrine, I think this would be an awesome fate for our dear Captain. Thoughts?

He's five inches shorter, so there's that issue.

Europe. He may be my favorite bball player at mich of all time but he's not going to sniff the nba.
December 3rd, 2011 at 1:30 PM ^
Agreed. That 15-footer from the elbow was very encouraging.

Al Borges looking gorgeous, in the crowd

Don't like how the refs have become so whistle happy with M up big late in second half
December 3rd, 2011 at 1:46 PM ^
Man this is ugly to watch, total breakdowns on D and our three point shooting is non existant
December 3rd, 2011 at 1:48 PM ^
Not liking how we fell asleep after going up big. Hate when my favorite teams lack killer instinct (looking at you Red Wings).
December 3rd, 2011 at 1:48 PM ^
Why did Smotrycz dribble there? Keep the ball high and it won't get knocked away.

gotta finish better

Holy crap. If we weren't making foul shots we could lose this. Up 20 then collapsed.
