Michigan-Virginia B-Ball Open Thread

Game on ESPN2, and maybe the last good one till almost the new year (Iowa State isn't what they once were, and lost to Drake).  So might be the last exciting game with a month's worth of development (maybe more...how do we start AND end the Big Ten season with Penn State?). And if I'm wrong, there's always Rudolph at 8 pm. (Oh who am I kidding, set your dvr).

62-57 Good guys

Predicting Jordan doesn't let Mike Scott go completely bananas, and our guards outplay theirs

  We win in a close one, with Mike Scott getting something like 17 pts, but Jordan battling him and getting 12 pts on 5-8 shooting, and grabbing 7-8 boards of his own

Don't mean to interrupt the thread but I thought everyone would like to know that Brionte will be visited tomorrow by Fred Jackson and (WR Coach) Heck in his home.  Shall we buckle up? Meyer will be voting soon with Hoke following behind (most likely).

proud 2b DRUNKS

a Wahoo is a fish reportedly that can "drink" 3 times its weight.  (I know, I know... its a FISH... it DRINKS with every breath.  No, I don't understand what it means.)

But, Virginia used to have a rep as a party school.  They liked to think they can chug beer w the best (read: Dartmouth).  So, the student body years and years ago decided to call themselves the Wahoos b/c they can drink so much.  And it stuck.

A "Double Wahoo" is someone with both undergrad and grad UVa degrees.  A "triple Wahoo" would be, like, BS, MS and PhD, all from UVa, etc.

Yeah, as dumb as naming yourself after a nut.

If the wikipedia article is

If the wikipedia article is to be believed, that explanation is probably apocryphal.  The truth seems to be that it came from an old chant: "Wa-hoo-wah!"

All about post position

  Agreed that he has work to do, but if he has the strength to get post position 4-5 ft from the basket and not 12ft...I'll take 4ft jump hooks all day

Whenever you play on the road, if you can survive the first 10 minutes without digging yourself in a hole, it's a good thing. Just need to figure out UVa's defense and the points will come. Luckily they're missing shots and having turnovers like we are.

Thus Far...

It's been all defense and missed shots.  It's been 10-9 for about three minutes. 

I am intrigued...

My only concern would be that he might be cold and might take a bit to heat up in the second. Hopefully, that isn't the case because we need him to be big in the second half.

Does anyone miss the physical

Does anyone miss the physical basketball of the 80s and 90s as much as me? The weak little touch fouls really get my blood boiling these days. Especially when the offensive player blatantly initiates the contact.

THAT was the dagger, down 7 give up an offensive board that turns into a 3.  For future reference, please box out and learn to jump when the ball is coming, the defender can't get it without an over the back call.

Stu Douglass has to have the worse

shot selection of any Senior in the Nation and games like this will guarantee THJ comes back for his Junior year. He looks average out there

Tough to travel this soon after Hawaii. They just look out of sync on both ends.

Hell, he's still in Hawaii. In retrospect, JB probably kept him out too long in the first half. Oh well...

Our confidence is so fragile. Most embarrassing half of basketball I can remember in a long while. Bad coaching (Novak on Scot), bad focus (travels, turnovers) and bad shots (hardaway forgetting that passing is a valid option, too). Putrid putrid basketball.

Credit Virginia they have smothered us on defense, but my god Stu Douglass has the worst shot selection ever, you would think 4th year in the offense would make a difference but it hasn't.

Seriously, does every team wait until they play Michigan to start knocking down 3s? It is like Duke all over again.

Depends. If we play up to expectations this year it shouldn't matter at all. For the top tier of team that are going to make he tournament, any given regular season game is borderline meaningless.

Let's be honest we've had one game where we weren't shit all year: Memphis. I trust we'll get it together but not much to inspire confidence so far.

  Losing to the unranked UVA boys kind of dampens the fun a bit.  Maybe they'll turn out to be a good team, but this seems like a let down following Memphis & Duke performances.

 

  Doesn't seem like we had much luck hitting our shots, and there were a few silly calls.

sorry

this VA team is not that good.  they have 1 maybe 2 decent shooters.  we just got completely outhustled on the boards and constantly dribbled into traffic, turning the ball over or forcing bad shots.  beilein will have a field day with this in practice this week.

Big Man

As much as I hate to say it. We'll never be a consistent team until we get a big man down low that we can go to when we are struggling to find our shots. We don't have that and it hurts as you can see tonight. We let that skinny ass 5th year senior Scott take control of this game and I doubt he has another game like this the rest of the season. I am so disgusted losing to this team. I really hope they prove me wrong and end up being a decent team. (UVA that is)

Well, we already weren't going undefeated

If Beilein teams were only judged by how they play in December he'd have been fired 5 times over. It's how he has them playing in February and March that matters.

Anybody else think we are

Anybody else think we are expecting way to much of Hardaway? I mean he was above average last year and had a good summer, but he no longer has Morris to feed him the rock and he has appeared to disappear from parts of games. He will be good but hes not a superstar yet.

Beilein is going to be made

Beilein is going to be mad at himself and the coaching staff when he goes back and watches the tape.  He let a great opportunity slip by in the first half to really put some points up on a team that struggles to score.  Given the large amount of prep time, they also had a poor offensive game plan to go up against that type of switching defense.  I lost count of the # of times they dribbled into a double team at the top of the key which through the motion offense out of sync.  Guh.  Even great coaches can have a bad game.
