Stop turning the ball over
December 1st, 2012 at 5:54 PM ^
our late game offense/defense is horrendous
December 1st, 2012 at 5:54 PM ^
HOLD ONTO THE DAMN FOOTBALL. WAIT. just ball
December 1st, 2012 at 5:54 PM ^
Tim SR needs to talk to his son about dribbling the damn the ball
December 1st, 2012 at 5:54 PM ^
Enters the game and the team begins to stall. Correlation?
December 1st, 2012 at 5:55 PM ^
THIS TEAM CAN NOT CLOSE OUT GAMES.
Christ, stop being so fucking tenative and play your game that got you a 16 point lead. Unbelivable.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:55 PM ^
i think they can or else they wouldn't be 6-0
December 1st, 2012 at 6:00 PM ^
Giving up 11 straight to Bradley is not closing games out.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:55 PM ^
This team needs to learn how to put teams away....for this though, a great game for us...a true teaching game
December 1st, 2012 at 5:55 PM ^
6 times this game. Unacceptable!
December 1st, 2012 at 5:59 PM ^
Criticizing ThJ when he has a bad game is apparently frowned upon on this site...
December 1st, 2012 at 5:55 PM ^
Again this team is having trouble dropping the guillotine on teams late in the game. I hope this cleans up by B1G time.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:55 PM ^
why do we keep doing this at the end of games? i want to win games by 15 damn it
December 1st, 2012 at 5:55 PM ^
So much for that extra practice time they devoted to closing out games. Ugly.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:55 PM ^
when the action is going on in the court, don't fucking pan the camera over to the benches or crowd, mmkay?
December 1st, 2012 at 5:57 PM ^
... We gotta get our ducks in a row.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:57 PM ^
Stauskas should have shot that
December 1st, 2012 at 5:57 PM ^
You tell 'em, coach!
December 1st, 2012 at 5:57 PM ^
that was a layup for him. take the open shot when you have it. that's why we're struggling.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:57 PM ^
We are really sloppy and the defense is probably going to be average at best this year, its almost like we play a lot of freshman. But seriously we are going to lose at least one game on the road to a team nowhere near us on talent, I predict it will be iowa.
December 1st, 2012 at 6:00 PM ^
We don't plat at Iowa this year.
December 1st, 2012 at 6:02 PM ^
Well damn, maybe it will happen at home but there is going to be a game that we cough up a lead and lose a game we should win, hopefully its not an important one.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:57 PM ^
play for the ball my ass
December 1st, 2012 at 5:57 PM ^
Surprise surprise, Pearl doesn't think the foul was intentional
December 1st, 2012 at 5:57 PM ^
no wonder why Bruce Pearl doesn't coach basketball anymore.. he sucks and stupid
December 1st, 2012 at 5:58 PM ^
These refs just cant agree on anything now can they.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:58 PM ^
I just don't understand the late game sputter. It's like they just say "fuck it, we're up 15". Besides obvious attitude issues, it gonna kill us in the B1G
December 1st, 2012 at 5:59 PM ^
They definitely are starting to act like they just deserve to win vs. playing all the way through the game. Hope Belien chews some butt after this game as they just keep losing focus every time they could close it out and make stupid turnovers.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:59 PM ^
11 straight by Bradley. WTF???
December 1st, 2012 at 5:59 PM ^
and now we were up 15 with like 5:00 to go and let Bradley storm back in while we derp around for a few minutes
December 1st, 2012 at 5:59 PM ^
Come on, that was a break away foul earlier, shoulda been our ball the other way and where is our defense?
December 1st, 2012 at 5:59 PM ^
Hardaway god lord do something positive, for the 2nd consecutive game we're crapping the bed down the stretch.
December 1st, 2012 at 5:59 PM ^
Does anyone know if the Bradley crowd is leaving?
December 1st, 2012 at 6:00 PM ^
No, they're still there.
December 1st, 2012 at 6:01 PM ^
No and they chant overrated?
December 1st, 2012 at 6:05 PM ^
I think it was at burke, not the team in general
December 1st, 2012 at 6:00 PM ^
I love this team. They play hard and smart all 35 minutes of the game.
December 1st, 2012 at 6:00 PM ^
Why the hell do we just run clock late in games. Score. Score score. Who gives a shit about running clock. Keep doing what you are doing. They did the same thing against NC State too. Burke needs to take charge.
December 1st, 2012 at 6:00 PM ^
Every Bradley student they have shown has really bad acne. I wonder if they use corn oil as face moisturizer in central Illinois...
December 1st, 2012 at 6:06 PM ^
The cheerleaders weren't half bad
December 1st, 2012 at 6:00 PM ^
...To look at all the ugly Bradley students. Let the pain end! Close this out!
December 1st, 2012 at 6:00 PM ^
give the ball to Nik he is the best free throw shooter
December 1st, 2012 at 6:01 PM ^
I blame the guy who posted the preview about how horrible Bradley's 3-point shooting was for how close this game is.
December 1st, 2012 at 6:03 PM ^
imo, he's a great recent B1G player. His game reminds me of Stauskas, except Nik has a higher ceiling it seems.
December 1st, 2012 at 6:09 PM ^
Stauskus had 10 times the potential, Shurna wished he could drive and dribble as well, and Staustus' jumper actually is fundamentally correct, future 1st round pick vs. Big Ten average player
December 1st, 2012 at 7:41 PM ^
That's dumb. Shurna was all big ten. I dont think there games are at all alike bit Shurna was far from an average Big 10 player
December 1st, 2012 at 6:01 PM ^
With youth comes a lack of merciless, killer instinct. Once they let a game slip through their hands (which I hope it doesn't come to that), they'll take a new approach to the end of games.
December 1st, 2012 at 6:01 PM ^
We are having some serious issues closing out games. Beilein needs to address this or its going to cost us more than a few wins this year.
December 1st, 2012 at 6:01 PM ^
fucking foul, come on guys
