February 13, 201511 yr Rice was shooting that. It would have taken huge balls by the refs but he should probably be shooting free throws.
February 13, 201511 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 12, 2015 -> 09:54 PM) What a choke by Michigan Why was Spike taking ball out vs Egwu? Gotta switch that
February 13, 201511 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 13, 2015 -> 04:57 AM) Why was Spike taking ball out vs Egwu? Gotta switch that Not sure I've seen a worst final two minutes of coaching.
February 13, 201511 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 12, 2015 -> 10:57 PM) Why was Spike taking ball out vs Egwu? Gotta switch that Yeah, I get that he is generally reliable but asking him to make a pass there over Egwu is really tough.
February 13, 201511 yr QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Feb 13, 2015 -> 04:03 AM) Yeah, I get that he is generally reliable but asking him to make a pass there over Egwu is really tough. Their inbound plays were so stupid. It's like they were afraid to just make a simple pass.
February 13, 201511 yr Only fair. Both teams gave a game away at others place. Michigan was never making tourney anyway.
February 13, 201511 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 13, 2015 -> 03:55 AM) It's games like this that give college basketball a bad name The Big Ten is awful outside of Wisconsin and D. Russell. I blame Calipari for hogging all the talent.

Yep , Gonzaga is actually my favorite team to watch this year. They at least have scorers at every position. This season is probably the least I have watched in 25 years Edited February 13, 201511 yr by fathom

This season is probably the least I have watched in 25 years CBB is too tough to watch if you dont have some sort of rooting interest. But I'll be watching a lot during conference tourney week. I think I may enjoy conference tournament week more than the actual tournament as a whole.

This season is probably the least I have watched in 25 years Even most of the top teams aren't that fun to watch. Kentucky is a fantastic team but I just don't enjoy watching them at all. Virginia plays really good basketball but I find them boring to watch.

February 13, 201511 yr Aaron Cosby told not to play basketball this week, looking like he won't be back next year.

If he isn't back, not a big loss in my opinion with the additions of Jordan and Coleman-Lands. Wing depth is crazy as it is. Opens up another scholarship though which is huge.
February 13, 201511 yr So can anyone think of another player who is as great of a free throw shooter as Jaylon Tate but that is also an absolutely horrendous jump shooter? I'm not sure I've ever seen anything like it. It is incredibly rare for guys who are fantastic free throw shooters to not also be good shooters but I can't think of any great free throw shooters who are terrible shooters.

They lack a go to guy at the end of the game. Irvin shooting and talent wise should be that guy but he is too streaky and just doesn't have a killer mentality unfortunately. Us Michigan fans have been pretty fortunate having Burke and Hardaway Jr. and Stauskas the last couple years to be that guy.

It is incredibly rare for guys who are fantastic free throw shooters to not also be good shooters but I can't think of any great free throw shooters who are terrible shooters. He's a bad shooter, but really he only takes about 1 jump shot a game and it's usually a 3 pointer at the end of the shot clock. Not a shock that a player bricks those. He can finish around the rim, at least that's something. Last night was maddening. How do you dominate a team 21-2 over the last 10-15 minutes of play but play so horribly the first 30? Credit Michigan for nearly stealing that game with maybe the worst starting line-up in the Big Ten, but yikes it was like they were Tom Crean running up against that zone. They seemed totally unprepared and got really lucky to get that win. I'll take it, but man is the Wisconsin game going to be a beat down. If we don't lose by 20 i'll be happy.
