Michigan Basketball vs. Kansas NCAA Tournament Game 3 Open Thread

Submitted by M-Wolverine on
I'm sure there will be a Liveblog (because why jinx it?) but here's the Open Thread for this one too (because why jinx it?). From a fine season to a really good one, maybe more. Two down, four to go. Why not us? Time to shock the world. Go Blue!

Yeah, this team doesn't practice the 1-3-1 much I'd suppose. Looked terribly executed from how I remember a few years ago. Michigan needs to use its athletic strength, get out and run.

With GRIII is it a confidence issue?  He's athletic has hell. He can keep pace physically when he shows a lot of effort.  But not seeing that so far.

This is the kind of game that he has to take over.

He's going against their #2 PG. We're playing a good defensive team. We need to run offense and he has to play like an MVP.

I know certain guys on this board are untouchable (Denard, Trey, etc.), but right now is where the nation's most outstanding player has to play like it. If he doesn't, I have my doubts. There really aren't any excuses.

Take advantage of going against their #2. Counter their advantage inside. Take this game over. Be a leader.

Even if it's not scoring, get your team in an offense and getting good looks. Breakdown the defense.
