Michigan v NW - Men's Hoops Game Thread
January 15th, 2023 at 12:32 PM ^
20-10 lead is erased
January 15th, 2023 at 12:34 PM ^
Wow, a tie game!
January 15th, 2023 at 12:34 PM ^
From 20-8 to 27-27. Ffs.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:34 PM ^
We got a free throw yodeler!
January 15th, 2023 at 12:35 PM ^
Good job, T Will!
January 15th, 2023 at 12:36 PM ^
juwan really needs to coach dug into a pass first mentality. he looks to shoot way too much.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:36 PM ^
T Will's free throw stroke has gotten much better. Maybe that bodes well for his jump shooting. Not this time, though.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:47 PM ^
He's making them more, but I don't understand why he moves so much prior to shooting. You'd think during an offseason they'd switch that up.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:37 PM ^
This is a frustrating team!
January 15th, 2023 at 12:37 PM ^
Williams free throws - Williams missed layups = 0
January 15th, 2023 at 12:37 PM ^
What the fuck are these shots?
January 15th, 2023 at 12:38 PM ^
that's like the 3rd time we've been afraid to shoot under the basket and come away with nothing.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:38 PM ^
please bench williams for baker for extended minutes
January 15th, 2023 at 12:40 PM ^
Or cheddar. Either one provides something unlike T Will.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:42 PM ^
Williams toughness and rebounding has gotten us 4 points during NW's run. He missed a layup trying to finish under the basket with 3 players around him. Cut him some slack! Baker has proven he's no savior for this team.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:38 PM ^
This team is so bad.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:38 PM ^
6-14 was my prediction for our conference record. When we started 3-0 I thought maybe I was wrong. Nope.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:39 PM ^
Beran had a big game against us last year. Every team in the B1G should play a stretch 4 against us
January 15th, 2023 at 12:39 PM ^
Howard being out coached again
January 15th, 2023 at 12:39 PM ^
I would love to know what's happening at practice that makes Jett think that a contested, off-balanced, 18-footer with 18 on the shot clock is a good shot.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:40 PM ^
Didn't realize there were 18 seconds left. Holy crap. I'd suggest benching him but there's not too much scoring without him.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:40 PM ^
Put in Cheddar.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:40 PM ^
The pieces of this team DO NOT work well together.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:41 PM ^
Do we not have guys willing to go up hard under the basket? Dipsy Dos and fade aways SMH
January 15th, 2023 at 12:41 PM ^
I wonder what Jalen is yelling every time he stands up.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:45 PM ^
Probably a lot of "what the fuck are you doing?" That's what I'm yelling anyway
January 15th, 2023 at 12:43 PM ^
Sigh. This team does so much so poorly.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:45 PM ^
Tarris Reed is out of control. He just throws his body all over the place and has no hands.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:59 PM ^
Horrible hands.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:46 PM ^
Michigan led 20-8 with 10 minutes left. Then they allowed an elongated 31-13 run. I just don't understand this team.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:46 PM ^
Good defensive possession to end the half.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:46 PM ^
One thing that happens with a young team is disconnected play on both ends. And poor team defense. That shows up in practice when coach is trying to teach the team "good shots" within the offense. If it's too easy to score against your defense in practice, you dont learn what "good shots" are, nor how to manufacture them against a good B1G defense like Northwestern.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:47 PM ^
Oof. Need to get better on offense.
And defense.
And turnovers.
Otherwise, just fine.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:51 PM ^
Only three things to work on…that’s good…
January 15th, 2023 at 12:53 PM ^
TWill - 16 minutes 0 of 3 shooting (including a missed 3) and a minus player. That is to much court time for someone who lacks production.
January 15th, 2023 at 1:02 PM ^
I mean, yeah he’s been disappointing, but it’s not like Baker, Cheddar or anyone else who could take his minutes have been good either.
this roster is just constructed really poorly, and team’s ‘basketball iq’ is way below what it needs to be
edit: i take it back. The total lack of effort rebounding FTs there was pathetic. Sit him for good
January 15th, 2023 at 12:58 PM ^
This team makes me sad.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:59 PM ^
There's such a malaise hanging around the basketball program right now. The team is just depressing to think about.
January 15th, 2023 at 12:58 PM ^
Juwan called 2 TO's with the TV TO's on the horizon, his substitution patterns are nonsensical. His roster management is inane.
He needs to go, I've always loved Juwan but the program is regressing in a really annoying way.
January 15th, 2023 at 1:00 PM ^
It'd sure be nice if Hunter showed up in the second half.
January 15th, 2023 at 1:00 PM ^
This team is soft mentally and physically.
Don’t go up strong under the hoop and no one takes charges. We also can’t rebound. When the going gets tough we fade
Also, Juwan’s rotations. When we’re rolling he makes mass substitutions. WTF? And roster construction? Three true guards on the roster and one is out for the season. We have 85 wings and only 1 or 2 can even play.
January 15th, 2023 at 1:02 PM ^
After two early 3's, Jett hasn't scored. After giving good minutes at Iowa, Tschetter hasn't seen the court. If Coach Howard sprinkles in some Tschetter and Barnes occasionally, maybe they wouldn't play so frenetically when they get in. It seems that when Barnes is in, he tries too hard to make a splash play so that he can stay and get back on court.
They say that Juwan is a good X's and O's coach. Maybe, he's more suited to be a wonky assistant.
January 15th, 2023 at 1:04 PM ^
And the 2nd half starts with multiple fouls and multiple failures at getting the defensive rebound.
January 15th, 2023 at 1:04 PM ^
Get TWill the fuck out of there
January 15th, 2023 at 1:04 PM ^
Foul. NU OR. Foul.
Tough to see.
January 15th, 2023 at 1:04 PM ^
please get williams the fuck out
January 15th, 2023 at 1:05 PM ^
TWill having a tough year.
January 15th, 2023 at 1:05 PM ^
TW has pictures of Juwan. How else can you explain it.
January 15th, 2023 at 1:05 PM ^
No offense but Williams stinks.
