For all the **** we've endured over the last four years of Golden Gopher basketball, oddly enough, we've played Michigan pretty well, including on the road.
Now this Michigan team is a different beast, but I'm clinging to those recent vibes.
Exactly. Plus Niko can scheme defensively which has helped BD immensely make up for a lack of athleticism.
BD could flounder in a lot of systems out there. I don’t think you risk that, but obvs money talks…
I’ve only seen a few highlight type videos of him. Is Nate Mason a good comp? He’s not going to blow anyone away with his athleticism, but I thought he picked his spots well, and uses his body really well to create space.
Every time I can't stay up for a late West Coast game, they win (dating back to last year).
Just watched the replay. It was really fun to see them peak late in the 2nd half.
Take care of business against Rutgers this weekend, and it's almost guaranteed we won't have to play on the terrible...
I’d argue he needs to be the main ball handler. He is not a SG. He’s had the opportunity to shoot much higher volume this year, and they need a pure shooter in the off guard role.
Asuma is struggling because he has to do way too much ATM with the injuries. With more talent around him, I think...
I hear ya. He should be playing. Selfishly, I want to see if he can be a player next year, and wish he would let lose.
I’ve been really disappointed with his arch this year. I felt like he showed some flashes early, but as he’s been given an opportunity to play, he’s totally fumbled it.
There’s definitely a little of that, but in the flipside, if you ONLY beat a team like Alcorn State by 20, you’re getting docked. It’s also not going to help your O efficiency if you boat race the 350th defensive team (I don’t know what they are, probably something like that).
I think with AI...
Wire to wire never in doubt. I haven’t read through all the posts but this is what has me fired up.
-Sparty bigs cooper and kohler were totally neutralized. Like how is that even possible? Every time I tune into MST those guys are making huge plays. JCJ was doing work!
-Starting the game...
100%. At this point, I feel nothing. Teams go seasons without these kinds of losses, yet we seem to face them every game.
Just gotta laugh at this point. Get all the bad luck out of the system, and revert to the mean starting next year.
