I’d rather not put them in the bonus 5 minutes into the half. I also don’t remember if we made a stop while he was in the game for that 2 minute stretch (of which we were -8).
Who needs shoddy memory when I record every game on Youtube TV. I re-watched the stretch and summarized it, his +- is -1. Note that as soon as he subs out Parker Fox gets posterized in the paint. Would not have happened with Wilson in.. And keep in mind that he is subbing in because our bigs are already in foul trouble..
And Ihnen and Fox are?
Comparatively yes. We are using two scholarships on Wilson and a walk-on.
Being proud of their effort and calling it a win are two different things. The only thing pathetic here is you. Did you watch the game? Judging from your post my guess is no. Pathetic.
So we are using four scholarship on players who would almost certainly never see the floor for 80% of other Big Ten teams. There lays the problem. This team is 7 deep. 1 was out, 3 were in foul trouble all night, and they still covered. The effort was there. The execution down the stretch wasn’t. That happens when you are outmanned. Especially at the Breslin.
How many baskets did his man get in that stretch. He did fine, got one bad call on a foul.
Agreed!!! Hard to get points in the paint when for the most part all 5 players are running around out on the perimeter. Their spacing is terrible!!!
Thanks for clarifying The Facts
Izzo is always screaming at the refs - both home and road. Guessing he's not trying to fire up the crowd on the road...so, to get calls. He may be a good guy and great coach, but his 4 year old temper tantrums on the court are beyond embarrassing.
He played 22? I couldn't watch all of it but he got benched in the 1st half for taking an awful mid range shot when Dawson had post position.
I read something wrong: only 6 minutes in the first half.
Same thing happened in the second half, except this time he tried to make the pass into Garcia, but he was at a terrible angle and the ball was not close to being on target. He had an off game last night.
Typically I wouldn’t want to either but they were worse than we were from the charity stripe last night.
Nice post. You have excellent patience to put that all together.
I don't think he needs to get a T but there were multiple horrible calls where he hardly reacted.
JOJ strikes me as one of those "could have been guys". There's obviously still time yet to unlock his full potential. He can rebound when he wants to. He has a high motor when he wants to. He can jump out of the gym. He can bang down low with 4's. He can hit the 3. He has become a good FT shooter. With the right system, good coaching, and motivation I think he could be really, really good. Not sure that's going to occur here before he runs out of eligibility.
I honestly can't remember a game that was so poorly called with so many unnecessary whistles. Both teams wanted to play physical. Just let them. When it gets out of hand, blow the whistle. But last night was terrible.
I saw him react unfavorably multiple times. Maybe he doesn't have what it takes to go off but I'm not sure getting a tech would have helped us last night.
Good point. I don't know his home/away technical foul ratio, but I guess my point is there's reasons to get a tech other than just to get calls. Could be to fire up the crowd and/or players which is what I think Izzo was doing.
I actually thought it was a good thing we were able to get Izzo visibly frustrated and angry with his team. Nothing better than watching Izzo lose his sh*t because his team isn’t playing well against us.
My guess is the BJ didn't see those terrible calls like he doesn't seem to see his entire team running around on the perimeter, the lack of floor spacing or so many other things that good coaches pick up on.
In a one and a half minute stretch, his man scored 2 points. His inability to get back also led to Christie's 4th foul (that wasn't a big deal or anything). That's when Ben, rightfully, pulled him.
Yeah, your recording is more precise than my memory of a game that I just watched.
