[stocker08]

Ballgame.

Oh cool. What are you going to do rather than watch the rest of the game?

 

[rowdaboat]

Hopefully someone punches him in the mouth!

Cut his hideous rat tail dreads

the wolves are playing

 

[scools12]

Depth starting to be an issue for the Gophers.

Unfortunately as the roster is currently constructed just not enough bodies to run out there.

 

[From the Parkinglot]

Turns out shooting 3’s is important. Example the twolves game right now.

 

[Day1Fan]

It looked less red than other times I’ve been there. But only based on a few pictures on Twitter I saw.

40% red

 

[Spottedmuskie]

Carrington is cooking us on both ends

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Anyone who knows balls knows Tre Holloman should have been Mr. Basketball.

 

[Outsider]

Boys are tired, shots coming up short.

 

[GopherJack]

Boys are tired, shots coming up short.

That and the fact, we aren't that great of a shooting team

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

All hand fucking Big refs

 

[stocker08]

Yeah....that should have been a shooting foul on Janecki. Thought it looked like he got his arm live too.

 

[howeda7]

They have to start getting minutes for Turner and one of the guards (Gizzi etc.) and/or play Shinholster more or this will happen more and more. They will just run out of gas.

 

[scools12]

Carrington lightning them up is not cool.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Why is Tyson not shooting... he's had open looks

 

[upnorthkid]

MN is 21/31 from not 3
4/16 from 3

WI is 11/20 from not 3
13/29 from 3

turns out that'll get you beat when you give up 9 more 3s

 

[Roland Brooks]

Exactly! Locking up Tyson

 

[UpAndUnder43]

MN is 21/31 from not 3
4/16 from 3

WI is 11/20 from not 3
13/29 from 3

This. Was basically the Warriors method at their peak. We’ll score 75 from 3. You’ll score 45. You can’t make up the 30 consistently.

 

[GO4INLALALAND]

What a quick turnaround in this game. I checked the score at the beginning of the second half and the Gophers were in control. I thought we might actually cruise to a victory, now the steady hand of a long tenured coach is coming through and this game is starting to play out the way I thought it would.

Bottom line, keeping BJ around as long as MN did, hurt this program a lot. But I like the things I see with the team now and I'm excited about the future with Niko at the helm. I never felt that way with BJ running the team.

This game is not over and the guys have pulled some upsets already this season, so let's see what happens.

 

[Outsider]

Free throws killing us as per usual.

Wolves still beat them during that 73-9 season

 

[Gilthorp57]

Tyson's shot has no lift

and its part of why the outside shot is ruining the game of basketball at all levels. 60% of WIs shots from 3 tonight.

Johnson was only here for four years. lol. It's not like the basketball program was in good shape prior.

 

[Gilthorp57]

Tired, his shot has no lift

 

[Beerculees]

He looks tired. Wonder if he is sick.

 

[Spottedmuskie]

Carrington wasn't wrong about Ben

It was two years too long.

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Carrington is a whiny bitch

 

[upnorthkid]

5 seconds between shot and game clock. tough to know what to do here but you probably have to press and foul, which sucks as WI is a good FT shooting team
