MBB vs, Wisconsin 2nd Half Open Thread
I created this thread for 2 reasons, a more entertaining half hopefully, especially for Michigan and to divide up the traffic from the other thread.
We should be leading by more, let's hope we can beat this team down, Go Blue!
Almost every game wide open 3's gallore for the opponent
Wisconsin started out 1-11 from 3, have now hit 6 of their last 8
Please.
Wisconsin unable to miss, now 7 3-pointers.
fuck ben brust. that is all
Only when watching Michigan games do I expect the other team to make it every time they take a three. It's like some sort of curse on the Wolverines.
Poor perimeter defense.
Now Wisconsin can't miss
Wisconsin has made something about 9 shots in a row or something, what's more maddening though is they are late shot-clock situations.
No point in watching these guys panic and buy into the Wisconsin murder-death-ball squads hands any further.
This team cannot make everything click at once. It's either amazing offense, crap defense or amazing defense, crap offense.
WHY CAN'T THEY MISS A SHOT???
heat check 3, let's go tim get hot
Robinson is being made a fool of.
Yep, I'm out too. Hopefully this won't kick us out of the Auburn Hills pod.
Can't fucking miss now.
Wisconsin has scored 13 buckets on their last 13 possessions I do believe.
Wisconsin shoots 17% in the first half.....112% in the 2nd half
They can't miss.
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH OUR TEAM? WHY CAN'T WE BEAT THESE NO-TALENT FUCKS?
what is a missed shot
Yes, I believe it was 11 actually. The last miss breaks that, but they get 2 free throws, so, gross.
Wisconsin just isn't missing. Defense could be a bit tighter, but this is the best half of shooting I've ever seen from a Wisconsin team.
My god, we never fucking play above our opponents level of competion. On top of that, we're not exactly a strong team down the stretch. That makes for just a terrific recipe come tourney time.
I really wonder what happened to Michigan's offense in the second half of the season. They simply cannot make shots anymore on a consistent basis.
B10 defenders >>>>>>>> WMU, EMU, WVU, Arkansas, etc defenders.
That is not it. Michigan has open shots all the time and they simply miss them. Those were shots they did not miss in the first half. I understand missing contested shots.
frustrating the hell out of me, if we make the sweet 16 we'll be lucky.
I just don't know anymore what to think
And the D is going to get us in the end...making the last 13 shoots is just ridiculous
Nothing is worse than watching Wisconsin. I am so frsutrated with this game.
Wisconsin is a crime against basketball.
They did exactly what Wisconsin wanted them to this game. This one falls on JB and Trey.
This post is going to come off as whiny and negative....I guess I'm being that way right now, so be it.
This team is so damn hard to watch. Maybe its because we have so much talent I expect to win against any team in the nation. Maybe it's because its so inconsistent, and at times look like the team their talent suggests they are, and others looks like a medicore Big Ten team. Maybe its because their defense is mediocre and makes the same mistakes every game.
Whatever it is, it's frustrating as hell. Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed a lot of the season, and I love Michigan basketball, but it seems like every game I want to throw somethig at the tv, not something I should be doing with a 26-6 team.
I think the 'talent' meme is dead. Or at least developed talent. Honestly, we play most the game with freshmen and underclassmen. Hardaway is the only major upperclass contributor, and he's Mr. McStreaky. We have freshmen. And freshmen tend to be fragile and get lost.
It's not rocket science. It's not luck. We don't play good defense consistently. And that's probably being too kind.
Have hit 9 of their last 10 shots. Poor post defense by Robinson. Poor perimeter defense by everybody else. Trey Burke heroball time going about as well as you'd expect. Game not over by any stretch, but not looking good.
