MBB: Michigan vs IU on CBS
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:34 PM ^
B10 seaon is here already? Seems early, not complaining though.
Go Blue!
December 2nd, 2017 at 1:56 PM ^
It is early. You should be complaining.
Its bc Delaney thought it would be a great idea to schedule the BIG tournament a week earlier than all the other power conferences, and so now UM is playing BIG games the first weekend in December, and the Big Ten teams will be finishing the tournament around the same time as the MAAC and the Atlantic Sun.
December 2nd, 2017 at 2:12 PM ^
Ugh I hate that. I loved how the B1G Title was the last game on CBS before the Selection Sunday show.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:34 PM ^
A commercial break before the game even starts. Good grief, guys.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:36 PM ^
“Ann Arbor, the first stop on the road to the Final 4” Like that!
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:38 PM ^
Go blue. Go Mo
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:39 PM ^
We make a sub 15 seconds in?!?
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:43 PM ^
Coach B must've been pissed with that early foul by Mathews.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:46 PM ^
about the motion during the sideline OOB play on that posession. Matthews wasn't in the right place and then jogged through the motions of the play. The foul was probably the cherry on top.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:42 PM ^
Duncan with defense and Poole with some offense. luv it.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:43 PM ^
That charge call was weak I admit. We'll pay for it later
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:46 PM ^
I thought so too, looked like the ball handler had stopped and had already passed the ball before the contact.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:47 PM ^
Some of those marginal things like that should just be no calls.
Not a charge. Not a block. Just no call.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:44 PM ^
POOLE!
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:45 PM ^
Jordan Poole is going to be big time for us in his career
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:45 PM ^
give poole more minutes
December 2nd, 2017 at 3:25 PM ^
He shoots just as well, can handle and drive, and can't be any worse defensively.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:45 PM ^
This Poole guy shooting like this would be nice for a few years! Open looks but a make is a make
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:46 PM ^
It's raining.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:46 PM ^
Great start! Go Blue, Beat IU!!!
QUESTION THOUGH:
WHO IS OUR NEW CRISLER ANNOUNCER AND WHY IS HE SO ANNOYING?! He needs to be stopped.
Way too tacky for U of M; it's worse than the "First Down HOOOOOOOSIERRRSSSS" we love to make fun of at IU football.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:47 PM ^
Agree
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:48 PM ^
Like scratching on the blackboard.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:50 PM ^
It's embarassing.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:51 PM ^
Upvote...5000 is a much better look.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:46 PM ^
Brooks and Poole.
Gotta luv it.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:52 PM ^
LIVERS!
Luv that guy.
December 2nd, 2017 at 2:55 PM ^
Needs to figure it out.
Livers is the highest variance player on the roster right now. Stuff is going to happen when he is in the game. Just don't know yet which side he'll make plays for.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:52 PM ^
If Wagner doesn't go pro, this team will be much better next year. Outside of Rahkman, all the contributors are underclassmen. Do we have any juniors outside of Wagner?
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:54 PM ^
If Matthews keeps up his play, he may test the NBA waters after the season.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:54 PM ^
if we make the tourney, as that would require both of them to consistently produce in Big Ten play.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:58 PM ^
But right now, neither would be 1st round picks. Unless Wagner continues his rebounding rate and shows he can be a worse version of K-love, he won't be a 1st rounder. Matthews, we will see how his 3 pt shooting grows throughout the year. I don't think he would be a 1st rounder if the draft was tomorrow.
December 2nd, 2017 at 1:05 PM ^
My assumption is that we will only make the tourney if he steps up against some quality big ten teams. I think if he consistently produces against legit opponents, keeps his numbers up, he leaves after this year.
December 2nd, 2017 at 1:10 PM ^
I should go look up his season stats first, but seems he takes a lot of shots. I want the guy to score, but look for your open teammates also.
December 2nd, 2017 at 1:58 PM ^
You should. He averages 4 assists a game and had 12 against UC-Riverside.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:59 PM ^
will be gone.
December 2nd, 2017 at 1:02 PM ^
Simmons hasn't done anything yet but Robinson's shooting will be missed
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:53 PM ^
Classic Beilein offense right now.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:53 PM ^
Why he's called "baby Steph!"
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:53 PM ^
Belein better not take out Matthews with those two fouls for the entire 1st half
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:56 PM ^
Well he is...and luckily we were playing well without him
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:56 PM ^
Normally I would agree, but he’s been on the floor about 3 minutes and he already has 2 fouls. With a fourteen point lead JB can afford to rest him awhile to settle him down.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:54 PM ^
Well this game is weird.
Man I feel bad for Zavier...too damn short and if he can't penetrate he NEEDS to be able to shoot from 3 at a 40+% rate...and that ain't happening with that stroke.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:56 PM ^
Glad I like Outback commercials cuz there's going to be a lot of them in our bowl game.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:57 PM ^
Of the floor. Youngsters looking good too. Moving the ball well. Go Blue!
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:57 PM ^
I like the way the youngsters are playing, but how bad is Indiana?
December 2nd, 2017 at 1:06 PM ^
than Duke.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:58 PM ^
Still way too easy for us to be backed down in the hole.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:58 PM ^
Zavier Simpson seems to muscle his shot up to the rim instead of stroking it.
December 2nd, 2017 at 3:29 PM ^
release point is way too low and he does kinda push the ball.
Pretty good defensively, though, so there's that.
December 2nd, 2017 at 12:59 PM ^
That was SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET by Mo
Then some Liver
