Sloppy as fuck.
December 15th, 2012 at 9:57 PM ^
I love stauskas but he is showing why freshman don't generally start or play in late games, has some mental lapses with the ball in his hands
December 15th, 2012 at 10:14 PM ^
Why was this negged? guy had 4 or 5 turnovers and got a technical for taunting the other teams bench. He is a great player, just had made some typical mistakes freshman make which is why you don't generally see freshman based teams win championships.

Ummm.... we're 10-0 with an average victory margin of 20+ points.
December 15th, 2012 at 9:56 PM ^
This game isn't over. Don't lose focus now.
December 15th, 2012 at 9:56 PM ^
woof....5 freshman...live and die with that
December 15th, 2012 at 9:56 PM ^
December 15th, 2012 at 9:56 PM ^
need to stay focused, too nonchalant by Nik
December 15th, 2012 at 9:58 PM ^
Wow. So sloppy. Pretty sick of the extended slumps the team is guaranteed to go through each game.
December 15th, 2012 at 9:57 PM ^
LIKE OMG WHERE'S THE 'T' FOR RIM HANGING!?!?!?!?
December 15th, 2012 at 9:57 PM ^
December 15th, 2012 at 9:57 PM ^
Blowout the team majority of the game... then go down to the wire. Can't complain about being undefeated... but better learn before B1G play. You WILL get burned.
December 15th, 2012 at 9:58 PM ^
December 15th, 2012 at 9:58 PM ^
Let's go boys, put this away.

Geez people, it's basketball. Teams make runs. ZOMG West Virginia cut the lead to 8.
God forbid we win a game by only 10.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:01 PM ^
I understand that basketball is a game of runs ... but it's frustrating to see that we should be up by 20+ points and aren't, and we're turning the ball over way more than we should/very sloppy play, etc.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
frustrated that Michigan has found themselves letting a handful of games that could be giant blow outs turn into single digit finishes.. and it worries them for the future conference play.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
Stauskus has had an off shooting night and we lost Horford. And we're still up 11. Color me not concerned in the least that we might not have a 20+ victory. It's not like WVU is Eastern Western Michigan, either.
We could be Indiana today...
December 15th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
December 15th, 2012 at 10:09 PM ^
plus you can add the refs have been a bit sketchy these final ten minutes. anyways, i stand by my point.. at least in my case, I wanna see better finishes just for confidence come big ten play. I don't need to tell you that you cannot even let one big ten game slip away this year.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:00 PM ^
How the fuck does WVU keep hitting these dogshit 3-pointers? I could've sworn they were shooting well above 50%, however I see they are only 6/15. Seems like they've made a lot more.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:01 PM ^
Nik just not feeling it tonight.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
December 15th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
stop bitching about the stretches...five freshman getting serious minutes. not hard to figure out. You praise them when they show their talent, but constantly bitch about dry stretches and defensive lapses. You take the good (alot more of this) with the bad.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:05 PM ^
just dry stretches. This team seems to keep blowing big leads late and it could catch up with them eventually. Maybe they just get bored and want to make a game of it?
December 15th, 2012 at 10:05 PM ^
December 15th, 2012 at 10:21 PM ^
...WAYBACK MACHINE...
Jalen has to know when to dish! Juwan was doubled and Ray was sitting all alone in the corner! You can't drive into a congested lane...why the hell is Fischer starting 5 freshmen? This group needs leadership. Eric Riley would never have....
December 15th, 2012 at 10:03 PM ^
December 15th, 2012 at 10:03 PM ^
wvu's been pressing hard for a while now. both teams look like they're getting tired.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:06 PM ^
such a spoiled bunch so soon, lmao
December 15th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
I feel this team live or die with our 3rd scorer...when one of Robinson or Stauskus steps up, the offense is unstoppable...when it is just Hardaway and Burke, we become much more inefficient, but still quite capable.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:08 PM ^
Called for the foul.... seems legit
December 15th, 2012 at 10:08 PM ^
December 15th, 2012 at 10:08 PM ^

December 15th, 2012 at 10:08 PM ^
They're just shaving points to prove Kenpom right.
December 15th, 2012 at 10:09 PM ^
Burke getting on up for the rebound!
December 15th, 2012 at 10:10 PM ^
good win
December 15th, 2012 at 10:10 PM ^
Radio breaking up on me again. Anyone got a score update?
December 15th, 2012 at 10:11 PM ^

December 15th, 2012 at 10:11 PM ^
won by 15...bring on the snowflake thread!
December 15th, 2012 at 10:12 PM ^
We iz good
December 15th, 2012 at 10:12 PM ^
11-0! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
Some sloppy play - more teaching moments.
