From my post that you quoted: “This has to be something more than just A/T ratio and his lack of D, especially when that negative A/T ratio is from such a small sample.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiveoutofsix Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 This purdue rutugers game gives me perspective, especially the last five minutes. On the road, B1G. We all know Painter can coach, this display reminds me of yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 I just keep waiting for Wisconsin to suck again. The only reason their basketball and football programs are successful is because of Barry Alvarez. Their fans are annoying and I just want them to be bottom feeders again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every single talented transfer came from losing programs, and everyone previously on IU’s roster hasn’t won anything. Most-level headed post after Wisconsin loss. Spot on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My FIL bet Wisky to win outright at the half. He made some cash last night That was my feeling as well. You could just see it slipping away in the way guys were carrying themselves on the court. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) 19 hours ago, BGleas said: I'm curious on the same thing. The second half of that game is the first time all season where I've seen XJ deliberately and slowly walk the ball up the court for an extended stretch. I don't mean to take a dig at him, but he looked like Phinisee out there walking the ball up and taking forever to get into the offense in the second half. I'm very curious if that was coach driven, was it XJ sort of on his own, or was it a byproduct of the game (ie. not getting defensive stops, etc.). I just haven't seen XJ do that much before. We looked like an Archie Miller offense in the 2nd half. Watched the game again last night (couldn't sleep...bad back) and the contrast between halves was amazing...in the first we pushed the ball quite a bit and got some really good looks for our shooters and some good interior buckets before the Wisconsin big men could set up...In the 2nd, we walked the ball up and got only 1 transition basket (Tamar found Rob on a long pass and he made the layup)... The other think that really stood out (again) were the chippies we missed...and the 3 look Stewart got with about 43 seconds to go couldn't have been any better...I know no one is automatic, but I woulda bet money on that shot... And you're right...I watched for how quickly we got into the offense with XJ as opposed to Rob...quite a difference...

But yes, that was a big miss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it wasn't his normal motion. It was rushed. Thing is he can hit that...but we hadn't worked to get him any looks in the second half so understandably tough to knock down shots when you have no rhythm.

Lostin76 Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 Was just at a bar in Fort Greene with my wife and the two dudes next to us were Wisconsin fans. They were talking about the game and used the term “thugs” like 2 or 3 times when talking about IU. In my head, I was like, “Dude, they allowed your trash guards to do whatever the hell they wanted in the second half. I wish we were thugs at Wisconsin instead of sheep.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would think so, but they looked almost like normal human beings. But once they started talking about Davidson being victimized, it was all I could do to keep silent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWatShot Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 Davison getting to play 5 full seasons and not missing any games is the Big Ten's wet dream and every non-Wisconsin fan's worst nightmare. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
