Wisconsin versus Michigan - open thread

Play some, please.

THJ's theory on Coach B's preparation may be off.

A couple missed offensive opportunities followed by threes in transition.  Gotta play smarter with the ball in our hands and we'll be fine.  No more trying to alley-oop Morgan in traffic or contested long twos early in the clock from LeVert.

Wisconsin on pace to score 112. But I bet they won't.

Our defense is just bad, and it's not improving. Open threes and free will to get to the paint. GR3 just gave the baseline to Dekker for the layup. Pathetic.

These guys seem comfortable with being down and then putting down the throttle.

gr3 lets his guy blow by him, morgan doesn't help walton out on the 7 footer, than morgan lets his guy drive for the easy 3 ft runner.

Since MSU game, we have really had a problem getting off to good starts, hopefully this one doesn't come back to bite us like it did at Indiana and Iowa.

Geez, could Robinson possibly had better post position when we totally ignored him out of the time out?  Give him the ball!

Did Walton not get hit on that shot?

standing around and getting owned again on D.

We just need to grab, slap and foul in those situations.  Refs won't call it today.

So....that wasn't an intentional foul?

and struggle against not-so-great bigs.

Looking for Irvin to come in on fire and make it rain.

Robinson , I love you but you're lazy.

or are our high screens just awful? They is at least two feet of space there and it's as if the screen isn't even there.

How do Nik and Caris let that go?

So humping is allowed now? Good to know

Also pushing off with your off hand

Wake up guys.

Do we have the worst home court advantage in the B1G?

It's hard to come back against Wisconsin. They're probably the worst team to spot a lead to.

Offense just kinda slow to come together today.  Wisconsin looks much more in sync, maybe because they just played a couple days ago and we haven't since Tuesday.  Now hopefully that goes from disadvantage to advantage as the game wears on.  But we've got to find some direction in this offense.

Those tall white guys (Kaminski, Woodbury, etc.) are really annoying.

Imagine how annoying it would have been if McLimans was a good post threat. That would have been annoying for opposing fans.

Protip

Make moar baskets

Create for others or himself like he did in the 2nd half of OSU.

I like to play a game I call Gary Mick. What would the statline be for a healthy McGary if he played for the current Michigan opponent?

Today, I think he would go for 26 points, 9 rebounds, and 4 assists.

just awful D.  can't anyone check anyone and stop the drive?

Dekker complaining about that foul? You could actually hear him slap his arm.

That was a great take by LeVert, in any other conference he would have been rewarded with two free throws

Not bad reffing today.  But I just can't believe they called that on Wisky and not the others

I'm really confused by the offensive gameplan today, it seems like we're ISOing at the top with little movement around the arc as LeVert or Stauskas penetrate.

If Irvin isn't going to shoot he doesn't do much for us

Too many 1 on 1's to start the game

No one hustles back on defense

Good lord we are playing awful on the offensive end today.

Man, Wisconsin has gotten away with much more contact.

We are getting dominated. Did not come to play so far. Hard to understand in such a huge home game

Team looks good so far. Turnovers, late rotations on D, don't check out anyone. Do the kids think today is a scrimmage? Wake up boys.

GET A REBOUND!
