Michigan Basketball vs. Kansas NCAA Tournament Game 3 Open Thread
Horford should not be in unless Morgan is hurt.
But let's not jump ship yet. It's early.
Does anyone think implementing a 1-3-1 or 2-3 would help? I'm normally opposed to a zone, but we're simply outmatched on the block.
Worth a try at this point.
You have to give them different looks.
It's definitely not a bad idea. If they score, go back to man.
We did the same vs. VCU...we tried, didn't work and went right back to man. But it was worth a shot at the time (1 point game).
McGary should be on the floor.
It's that simple.
Agree
And we go Morgan and McGary.
SMH.
who is overly concerned about getting his shot blocked.
Nope. Burke and hardaway too. You see Tim's left handed attempt?
You're kidding right? Tim nearly shot an airball from 6 feet

Kansas has a better D than State, Ohio State, Wisconsin. Not surprised we look like shit.
force an up-tempo game and refs need to call even more travelling and 3 second violations on KU, they seem to be camping out a while in there
The Elijah Johnson dong punch was an omen.
It looks like we're gonna need to hit from three with consistency to stay in this one.
Can't sleep walk to much longer. Do what we do best. RUN!!!!!!!!!!!
Gotta get a rebound first.
Trey needs to attack their defense and try to draw fouls on Withey. NBA-range threes aren't the answer.
We're not playing any offense so we might as well put 2 bigs in and play some goddamn defense...
Has anybody seen the Michigan team that was playing last week?
We all knew this would happen. Completely different teams.
what is wrong with jordan morgan? he can't beat out horford? our team blows
Whenever Horford is in it seems like bad things happen. No presence in the paint.
Because he should only play PF unless we're playing a small team.
Against VCU it was okay, in this game, he should only play PF alongside McGary when GRIII is out.
He's MAC level talent, not Big Ten
Sorry if already covered but does anyone know why Morgan isn't playing or is it still an enigma?
And right on cue...Good to see him finally playing. Lets see if we can ramp up that D
No idea
Kansas is very slow with that line up
Thank you TImmy.
There we go TH!
Nice piece, Craig Sager. Yeesh.
more easy layups for Kansas
and McGary.
22/22 Kansas points have been in the paint. My god.
How many steps does Traylor get?
Swiss cheese on defense tonight.
Good defense for 20 seconds and then we let an easy basket in
So not really good defense.
Two posts pleez
Michigan advertising free points in the paint this game.
Fuck you commercials!!!!!!
Changed Morgan and Mitch are in. Drive and dish....... Drive and dish
Going big now
I couldnt tell if Morgan or McGary had the ball there....I didnt think I would ever be happy for Morgan to be going to the FT line (instead of Mitch).
Freshmen is making a difference early.
Yup. The freshmen clearly do not know basketball as well.
Withey looks like some old man out there
