Walton for 3
October 29th, 2013 at 7:50 PM ^
Spike to Walton. After the Morgan monster block. (love a little 2 PGs for a change of pace)
October 29th, 2013 at 7:35 PM ^
Love how strong Walton is around the hoop. Great hands, very under control. Hopefully that keeps up when he's playing against bigger folks in the regular season.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:38 PM ^
I was always worried about the constant punding Trey took becuase it seemed like he always hit the deck after driving to the hoop.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:35 PM ^
Hello: Derrick Walton
October 29th, 2013 at 7:35 PM ^
Derrick Walton just capped off a personal 7-0 run with the Trey Burke signature steal
October 29th, 2013 at 7:35 PM ^
someone on this board predicted we would win this game by 15 b/e we would be tinkering with the lineup. Ha. Great stretch by Walton!
October 29th, 2013 at 7:37 PM ^
I said 35 and I am thinking that was too low...
October 29th, 2013 at 7:36 PM ^
Derrick Walton or Drey Wurke?
October 29th, 2013 at 7:37 PM ^
I think I like this kid Walton...
October 29th, 2013 at 7:37 PM ^
Stop it Walton
October 29th, 2013 at 7:37 PM ^
WOW. We are going to go undefeated this year! /s
October 29th, 2013 at 7:38 PM ^
Guy commentating just called Glenn, RGIII
October 29th, 2013 at 7:39 PM ^
.... twice, I believe.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:40 PM ^
Rlenn Gobinsin III
October 29th, 2013 at 7:51 PM ^
Maybe we list it like on a roster ... Robinson III, Glenn ... R3G
October 29th, 2013 at 7:42 PM ^
GRIII for Glenn Robinson the Third, if you didn't put that together yourself.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:44 PM ^
No he actually did say RGIII
October 29th, 2013 at 7:46 PM ^
I heard him say GRIII the first time. I only heard him the one time, however.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:45 PM ^
GRIII is not the same as RGIII, if you didn't put that together yourself.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:46 PM ^
I did put that together myself.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:49 PM ^
What can I say, you are a smart guy.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:38 PM ^
October 29th, 2013 at 7:41 PM ^
I read that in Jon Benjamin's voice thanks to your avatar. It made your comment approximately seven times better.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:44 PM ^
Good to see a few assists from GRIII. We know the coaches weren't just blowing smoke about his improved court vision.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:40 PM ^
October 29th, 2013 at 7:43 PM ^
It looks like
- Spike
- Stauskas
- GRIII
- Morgan
- Horford
October 29th, 2013 at 7:40 PM ^
I like Walton's game. He's not going to be able to generate his own offense anything like Burke could do, but he's quick and aggressive, seems comfortable in transition and dishing on the move. He's had a couple iffy decisions, but that'll come. True for any young PG.

I had to mute the web broadcast and switch to mgoblue's radio. Web guys were just way too goofy and not good. I wanted to hear how Terry Mills was as an analyst
October 29th, 2013 at 7:44 PM ^
Spoiler alert: not good.
October 29th, 2013 at 8:24 PM ^
October 29th, 2013 at 7:44 PM ^
"In the books"
"epitomize"
October 29th, 2013 at 7:44 PM ^
October 29th, 2013 at 7:46 PM ^
Offense too. I'm a little surprised that he looks a little overwhelmed.
With that said, Levert/Stauskas/Walton are all exceeding what I expected, so happy face.
Irvin might take some time to get up to full speed and learn his role. We'll see.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:48 PM ^
October 29th, 2013 at 7:50 PM ^
WHAT?! I thought he was a sophomore.
Still, he does look a step slower than the others. Which is fine. And if so, it probably means that he'll need a little longer to get up to pace than others. Which is what I said. Or you think that he'll remain slower for his career?
October 29th, 2013 at 8:04 PM ^
If you think he's just slow period, that's conditioning.
I said slow in rotation/a step slow. That's simply effort and knowing where the hell to be.
You can't help off your man like you do in HS, in HS, most kids can't hit that 3 from the corner so you pack it in if you're on the wing. In college Nik Stauskas hits five 3's in the first half of the Elite 8 if you sag off of him in the corner.
I think he'll be fine, it's just experience and taking pride in defense.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:44 PM ^
Levert is team MVP. Lottery pick. Final Four MVP. Jordan's heir.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:48 PM ^
Sounds about right.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:45 PM ^
October 29th, 2013 at 7:46 PM ^
Caris playing PG now.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:48 PM ^
I expect 60 points in every half this year...
October 29th, 2013 at 7:50 PM ^
October 29th, 2013 at 7:48 PM ^
October 29th, 2013 at 7:49 PM ^
Wow... look at this athletic ability! Scary scary good. GRIII leaped from the free throw line!
October 29th, 2013 at 7:49 PM ^
I admit, part of it is just the novelty of the idea, but DAMN I LOVE THAT BIG LINEUP. Beilein is going to have fun throwing in that lineup just to screw with people, then adding the 1-3-1, then going small, then big.
Ah. the world seems right at the moment.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:49 PM ^
41 pt lead without their best player. Crappy opposition, but nothing to sneeze at.
October 29th, 2013 at 7:49 PM ^
