rundown of Michigan's riser
Michigan mens basketball vs. Illinois open thread
Somebody yanked the net.
All in for some manball.
This is the exact same thought that came to mind, have they watched us at all this year? I've seen McGary miss wide open dunks to go along with layups, great upside but he's far from a "consistent finisher" down low.
Blank.....Blank......You're not looking at the big picture here.
A couple bad breaks (praying to God that's not a pun) but we have to make these layups if we want to win on the road.

Why do our bigs seeming never finish under the basket consistently? Their like 5 inches from the rim when they shoot.
Good start and way to weather the opening 4 minute storm of being an away team. Hope Jordan is okay, looked like a dirty ankle roll. Mitch is doing well; missed bunny layup was on him but he put himself in bad position with the fake and got under the basket too much. Doing just fine.
dribbling too much, they need to move the ball around.

Illinois has done a good job keeping UM out on the perimeter offensively, but I think our guys will start to see the openings. Burke's pass to McGary is a nice start.

Jordan Morgan makes me laugh. I really do hope and think that he'll be okay, but something in that goofy ass demeanor of his is very entertaining. Maybe it's just that retro team pic.
Tight. They're up in our grill trying to make it uncomfortable. We have to ATTACK.

dwyane wade couldn't hit that one to save his life earlier today
I do it for my love of the Streets
That floater is making Morris have nightmares.
Have to stop giving up offensive rebounds.
Denard has spent the offseason working really hard and smiling at people.
How are we not getting these defensive rebounds???

Hate how the student section is situated on the same side as the TV cameras.
McGary is struggling BAD today.

He blew a layup, picked up a bad foul, lost his man who got a offensive board and miscommunicated on a pick and roll.
No one is saying he's a bad player, but when you've got Horford...you can sit him and let him gather himself for a little bit.

Your wish is granted. And good start for Horford.
Damn, we gotta do better on the defensive glass.
Michigan Resurgent? Michigan Resurgent!
The beatings will continue until the uniforms improve!
Come on guys, rebound.....
It's been a lot. Its been a roller coaster that for some reason seemed like it would never get good. But you know what? We kept fighting. It's like that old saying goes, "Those Who Stay Will Be Champions." -David Molk
Why is it every big game the refs go with the "let em play" crap. By let em play I mean allow excessive hand checking and slight shoves in the back on rebounds. Call the game straight from the rip. tired of the deterioration of this sport because of the street ball shit.
The 'I' looks fat in the middle of the court
HAIL.
Good move Al.
If I say a duck can pull a truck, shut up and hook the sucka up!
Woo, Horford post up!
Michigan Resurgent? Michigan Resurgent!

Nice start for Horford. Nice to see him back especially with JM out.
Whatcha gonna do, little brother?
Has to be a good sign

The way Illinois is shooting from long range it's crazy to think how hot they started. Some of these shots look awful.
Whatcha gonna do, little brother?
He may be back folks. We need Stauskas' shooting to win this game.

Not difficult for Stauskas.

horford is not a puny little kid any more!!!
this text is abnormally tiny and will stay that way.
Canadian Bacon be sizzlin' tonight!

Beautiful shot by Nik

gutsy move drawing a charge. He already has 1 foul.
GRIII has a tough matchup tonight
the opponent can't blink or they will be down 10 against this team.

Nice find by Robinson! Canadian Assassin!

Tim needs to simplify it when he puts the ball down. He just can't dribble in traffic no matter how much he works at it.
Except for the other thing. That hurts the most. But the lack of respect hurts the second most.
Zone defense confused the crap out of Illinois there.
Denard has spent the offseason working really hard and smiling at people.
dat pass..im very punny.

I love the kid but that's not a true statement.
Whatcha gonna do, little brother?
