Wisconsin BBall Postgame Thoughts

Yes, Big Ten will probably get two.  And this Wisconsin team is going to lose a few games because their luck cannot hold.  And we'll beat Indiana in Crisler and MSU in Crisler.  Win Tuesday and the title is ours, basically.  If we don't, a share is super reasonable.

They're much worse on the road. They'll drop a game or two that they should win easily. The title will be UM, IU, OSU or MSU. Everyone else is an obstacle.



And conferences get 2 1 seeds all the time (ACC, Big East, Fab Five and IU in 1993). Even if it's just one from the B1G, it could easily go to the tournament winner, not regular season. It will be fine.

There is no tie-breaker for the Big10 title.  Big10 will get 2 one seeds almost certainly, likely us and Indiana.  Our schedule left is very favourable.  It is going to be nearly impossible for the committee to forget the Kansas loss to Duke or Miami losing to Florida Golf Coast (though I think Duke destroys them and ends any thought of them being a 1 seed anyway.  There NC St. and Duke wins have major astericks on them).

Our best low-post player (Morgan) is injured.  Don't forget that.  McGary is starting to add a J which is awesome, but Morgan's the only guy who can score with his back to the basket.

Could it be a function of playing five freshmen?  We're one of the youngest teams in the country.

Take a deep breath, buddy. Everything is going to be just fine.

players have to increase their basketball IQ. Instincts have to kick in as ball player when coaching goes awry. U see it on offense but rarely on defense. players dont wanna foul even it makes sense unless a coach tells them to.

Belief is a great recruiter, not a very good in-game coach

Come on, this is just absurd. So those WVU teams that went to the Elite Eight and Sweet 16 were loaded with good recruits?

Nice broad-brush comment that is completely meaningless.   We had a lot of good defensive stops today during key junctures of the game.   Have you also noticed that we're playing with a roster littered with freshmen and sophomores?   They're still learning how to play defense at this level.  I think you're constipated and need to get that turd out of your system ASAP.

Sparty is better than Wiscy!

Or maybe it has to do with them playing 30-40 minutes a night all season and having tired legs at this point, and McGary, who's only been playing 15-20 minutes most games, still having his legs.

Physicality..

Big 10 is rough and tumble and Stauk and GRIII (esp. the latter) have not shown the ability to rebound from a punch in the face.  McGrary is built for this.

I do not want to be #1 again until we are cutting down the nets on Monday night championship night.



#1 has not been good to anybody!!

Fouls, when we had so many to give at end of regulation?

Lolwut?

If Burke has the ball with 10 seconds on the shot clock, everyone stands still.

thats not treys fault thats the players around him. he will give up the ball and has done so willingly.

Start Spike instead?? Cut Burke's minutes??

The Badgers are the champions of ugly basketball every year.
