not sustainable, but wow.
Good one! LOL. Now let’s see what this coaching staff can do to prevent a similar performance. A test for Ben and crew. Better nip it in the bud.“I’ll take how to make your coaches look like idiots for 200 Alex”
Yep. A great learning opportunityGood one! LOL. Now let’s see what this coaching staff can do to prevent a similar performance. A test for Ben and crew. Better nip it in the bud.
Gotta save their legs with the short bench......need to come up with some new form of punishment, maybe make them write an essay about the importance of protecting the basketball.Based on the visage and body language of Coach Johnson, I suspect the Gophers will be running some extra wind sprints in practice tomorrow if not after the game tonight. He was particularly furious at the newbs who closed out the game (or didnt close out the game).
I especially liked when Treyton Thompson threw the in bounds pass right to an Islander player for a layup.Based on the visage and body language of Coach Johnson, I suspect the Gophers will be running some extra wind sprints in practice tomorrow if not after the game tonight.

They looked nonchalant and played a little entitled IMO. The hot start may have gone to their collective heads or they were hungover from the MI win. Hard to say, but the sloppy play has got to stop.They were painfully sloppy in the second half. Got a big lead and just started playing stupid.
He will probably remember that for some time.I especially liked when Treyton Thompson threw the in bounds pass right to an Islander player for a layup.
Good to learn a tough lesson while still winning!They looked nonchalant and played a little entitled IMO. The hot start may have gone to their collective heads or they were hungover from the MI win. Hard to say, but the sloppy play has got to stop.

Yeah, not a great way to show the coaches they should get you out there more.For a young guy who's probably hoping for more playing time....that was absolutely brutal.
For a team that was supposed to be scrappy and underdogs, I'm surprised how quickly they reached front runner mentality. Hopefully this was a good lesson for their next two non-conference gamesLooking at the faces of the players on the court after the game, they were embarrassed and upset. Just fuming. They left the floor before the Rouser was complete (not cool), but that was an indication of their bad feeling.
Payton was most unhappy with Treyton’s late-game inbound.Looking at the faces of the players on the court after the game, they were embarrassed and upset. Just fuming. They left the floor before the Rouser was complete (not cool), but that was an indication of their bad feeling.
The Tubby Stare was unmistakable. We need a new name for it...Based on the visage and body language of Coach Johnson, I suspect the Gophers will be running some extra wind sprints in practice tomorrow if not after the game tonight.

Coach Ben JohnsonWTF is CBJ?
Have PJ come to practice and lecture them on the "ball is the program" message!Gotta save their legs with the short bench......need to come up with some new form of punishment, maybe make them write an essay about the importance of protecting the basketball.![]()

Turnovers last night were ugly but I find it kind of funny that some posters are just willing to forget about the 9 other games where we had very few turnovers. At this point last night was an outlier where the team played sloppy. Hopefully they get back to playing the way they did in the other 9 games in regards to taking care of the basketball.
Sutherlin's game is slashing to basket, you are going to have to put up with some turnovers or you stifle that part of his game. I will agree 7 is to many for him but you will have to live with a few on occasion because you want that part of his game. Keeps the other teams defense honest.Right. But this game in particular....they tried to get minutes to the bench. Not to say that the starters did well with the ball....but 12 of the 28 TOs came from bench guys getting a fraction of the minutes. I had been wondering why Sutherlin hadn't been getting more minutes.....but the seven turnovers in 21 minutes answered that question. Needs to be able to protect the ball better. And if this team wants to compete with the best in the league.....defense is going to be a priority.
