***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS UNLV SO CAL CHAMPIONSHIP IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[60's Guy]

Cooper is the best player for UNLV on both ends. He makes sure they are open on offense and gives it to them on theGopher offensive end.

 

[Cayman]

This isn't on BTN+ and neither is the last game replay... Not even, um, streamable- frustrating. Have Bleacher Report open and your feed so thank you guys haha

It's on CBS Sports.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Not just Cooper, literally everyone on the team

Are you saying Ben has chosen bad players? We expected to be bad this year.

 

[adchester]

This team is terrible, but UNLV actually looks pretty good. Should be a solid team this year.

 

[stocker08]

I know what this team is missing. Tre Williams.

 

[Allshade]

I overheard battle in the Huddle say "hey guys, look for the open shot.......and I'll take it".

 

[Roland Brooks]

I know what this team is missing. Tre Williams.

Sam Freeman

 

[howeda7]

33.3% from the field. 36% from the line.

 

[adchester]

Are you saying Ben has chosen bad players? We expected to be bad this year.

You can be bad and still shoot over 50% from the FT line

 

[rowdaboat]

These guys are going to be in shape to run marathons by the time they're capable of making free throws

 

[goldenboy]

Top to bottom, this has to be the slowest roster in Gopher history.

 

[60's Guy]

Like DePaul...getting bullied too often.

 

[Cayman]

UNLV 27.5% from deep for the season, 47% today.

 

[USAF]

We're slow, but make up for it by being turnover prone poor shooters.

 

[GophersInIowa]

4 points scored in final 7:46.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

This is Pitino street ball, again.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

This squad is comically horrendous.

That's a bit harsh. UNLV causing alot of the ugly play

 

[big10guy]

Bad 3pt shooting and bad free throw shooting will lose you just about every game.

Not to mention giving up offensive rebounds.

 

[Roland Brooks]

UST and Gophers on a neutral court? It’s sad… right now

[stocker08]

I just don't get it. These guys have spent their lives playing basketball....yet can't make one of the easiest shots on the court. WTF.

 

[scools12]

Going to be rough watching them get stomped in conference on a nightly basis but taking the long view and hoping this all works out is all there is.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

UST and Gophers on a neutral court? It’s sad… right now

You saying it would be a pickem?

 

[howeda7]

We're slow, but make up for it by being turnover prone poor shooters.

The Gophers would dominate the Lifetime Fitness circuit.

 

[Crappie]

Iirc, gh resident coaches had said Henley would be a competent ball handler.

And ft’s?

 

[Spaulding!No!]

You saying it would be a pickem?

If so fire Johnson staff and coyle

 

[RogueGopher]

11 TOs in the half + 15% 3s + 36% FTs.

Only positive is Gophers are out rebounding 21-19 and Battle is close to a double double.

 

[RogueGopher]

Not to mention giving up offensive rebounds.

Gophers are winning the offensive rebounding margin right now.

 

[scools12]

That's a bit harsh. UNLV causing alot of the ugly play

Nah, it’s not harsh. It is just where they are at this stage of the Ben Johnson experiment.

 

[jblass]

Not just Cooper, literally everyone on the team

Do the Gophers have a shooting coach? If they do they need to fire him, if they don't, they need to hire one. I see better shooting as a team at high school games.
