Nice board by Eso. He seems to have some bulk and toughness (in the two minutes he's played).

Is it me or does Vogrich give up on shots way too early. There's been a couple offensive rebounds to his area when he's already vacated to the defensive side. I guess I can't blame him for getting on defense, especially with the 4 or 5 easy passes to a wide open guy we've already given up.

So I thought Cronin had a great defensive stretch when he was on the court that last shift. He was playing really physical with the inside guy for Utah. Looked really good in the post. He wasn't very quick getting down the floor, but once he was there, he had some solid coverage.

Honest question: When was the last time Michigan was a good rebounding team? I'm thinking, and I can't come up with any team in the last 10 years that wasn't weak on the boards.
This team could do so much in the transition game if they could only pull down a few boards here and there. Or capitalize on shooting badly from the perimeter by putting in some easy buckets inside off the rebound.
December 9th, 2009 at 10:49 PM |
well..
well..
they type of offense we play you are not going to get many rebounds typically. But i cant remember the last team either though

I think Stu is the third best player on this team. His assist to turnover ratio is excellent, he's the most competant ball handler at the point, and his defense is pretty solid. I can't explain the whole issue of the shooting specialist not being able to hit the broad side of a barn, but I think he is far from awful.

Say what you will about his

Say what you will about his gameplay, but at least he uses punctuation and capitalization.
He's not that bad, he just isn't a drive the lane type player in my view. Unfortunately, he's been trying to drive the game too much this season trying to create something.

yeah he's not the "drive the lane type player." he's the "shoot the three" type player. and obviously he's not very good at that either.
it's not personal, i just don't want to see him getting the kind of minutes he's getting.

we started the half out playing good defense; and that kind of foiled away... started shooting the ball well too and then hit a spell - - anyone else feel like the offense was out of sync in the last 10-12 minutes of the half...
gametracker shows 10 offensive boards for utah, 11 second chance points, and 6 fast break points in the first half. and we are being outrebounded 22-9...
