MICHIGAN GAME THREAD

[hallstorm]

We are just playing too much one-on-one. There are no screens or drawing a help defender to find the open man like Michigan is doing. They’re making easier shots than us

 

[MichiganStoleTitle]

On central time you get an extra step

Michigan is in Eastern time zone. In fact, Detroit is east of Atlanta, if you can believe It.

 

[HallBoy32]

Why is our offense just 1 on 1 and hope it goes in?? What are we ****ing doing

 

[holloway12]

No offensive sets. Playing tough on D

 

[shu09]

Danger zone.

 

[SHUSA]

so was i negative or was i seeing the obvious that we have absolutey NOTHING inside the arc. just chuck and duck 3s.

yetna is honestly a waste. should never be hype about a usf player. pass

 

[TomWall]

That was a charge....

 

[shu09]

This is going to get away quickly unless we adjust right now. Only reason we were in the game at the half was above average three point shooting.

 

[holloway12]

Richmond looks LOST... please get Aiken in there

 

[Jerry1992]

Next four minutes will decide if we got a game or not.

 

[TomWall]

Somebody made adjustments at halftime, but it was not Willard.

 

[ShoreGold]

Come out tough in the second half!! Richmond must take control!! We can win this! Dickenson seems winded run him hard!!

 

[jdavispirates]

Not sure why Richmond & Yetna are still in there

 

[TrueBlue1989]

I’ll take down three at the half.
Get a damn loose ball.

Agreed w both!

 

[shupat08]

One team has an offensive structure. One team doesn't (and hasn't for over a decade).

 

[burtmanjack]

Khadary has straight up been the worst player on the floor tonight. Very, very disappointing with his physical and mental performance.

 

[Ryanpbkelly]

Absolutely have to have a bucket on this possession. Can’t let them out together an extended run and potentially put the game away early

 

[TrueBlue1989]

Kadary is just not ready. Aiken needs to play. We literally have no offense.

 

[hbkmyr]

Why is our offense just 1 on 1 and hope it goes in?? What are we ****ing doing

It’s the same offense for the Willard era. Why would it change?

 

[ShoreGold]

Richmond must be better!! need some threes from Harris , Aiken and Rhoden!! Come on!!

 

[TomWall]

At least Willard called a timeout.....I'm impressed.

 

[NYC Pirate]

Well 2 ways to look at: play these players and let them get work against high caliber players or put the guys in that are playing best tonight if you want to still take a chance at winning.

 

[anon_ezos2e9wn1ob0]

I see the hype train was in full effect again on the transfers

 

[burtmanjack]

And at the moment Michigan looking like an easy cover.

 

[PMB Pirate]

Im pulling for Khadary but not his best effort. Get Aiken in NOW

 

[STLPirate12]

The one thing we couldn't afford to do, let Michigan land the first punch out of halftime.

 

[holloway12]

The lack of offensive sets is so frustrating!!! Too much freedom. against the #4 team in the country!

 

[SHUSA]

a loss is fine. playing bad in a loss is not fine.

we are playing worse than bad at the moment.. ike is good underneath on d. for a few mins. nothing else. depth is a farce. most of our players are lame vs competition.

frustrating? willard has been the coach for 10 years. its same old same old. richmond overrated. hes slow.

 

[mountain25]

Gotta take Richmond out. Its just not his night.

 

[PMB Pirate]

We don't rotate the ball quick enough, make Michigan move.

 

[TomWall]

Willard not and X's & O's coach....never has been. Good overall program manager but no offensive sets of any kind.

 

[hallstorm]

Some of you guys are pretty brutal with writing off players 2.5 games into the season. Chillax—there’s plenty of time left in this game.

gotta step up the intensity though.

 

[TomWall]

We won the opening tip and then there was a jump ball in the 1st half. Why didn't we take the ball out to start the 2nd half?

 

[King of S]

Aiken in, no help.

 

[SHUSA]

4 years at lowly usf?

we need some post play.

 

[Ryanpbkelly]

Just settling for way to many 3s but thats a product of not really running any actual offensive sets.

 

[Jerry1992]

Michigan has much better ball movement and gets quality shots. We are hanging around but shot selection and passing is poor. Rebounding better in second half though. Game far from over. Just need better execution in last 12 minutes to have a chance.

 

[holloway12]

our best chances of scoring in this game are in transition or off offensive rebounds from a contested 3.... come on get some ball movement

 

[TomWall]

I think we should start taking a few 3's.....we are too shy. Willard making Wooden turn over in his grave.
