Sam should do their defensive rating during the same time frame. There is literally another end of the court this thread and most IU fans are just completely ignoring.
Sports, high intense situations, can bring out a poor side in a lot of us. Poor decision on his part last night.
He took the L and was a complete non-factor in the game. As I and a couple of others mentioned before... want them again in the B1GT for a rubber match.
I had assumed all of this was understood, and you're right, and I agree.... And what little I know about PM... doesn't seem like he's going to do that.
Watching the replay...
11 min mark-- Malik over helps for no reason (Cliff Em wasn't even in the game) on a roll to the basket by RU backup FR big guy.... he's left Palmquist wide open for a 3.
905- great pass by Bates to Kopp in the corner. Tamar has started to pass a little better.
725- JG doesn't know the scouting report. Leaves Palmquist for a non shooter.
645- JG/IU doesn't get matched up. Palmquist 3.
I'm confused why they would need to call each other. It was exactly that, just a trip. A trip is intentional, I mean, he didn't commit murder.... he's just a douche. I'm sure Pikiell... of all people, is aware.
If Malik doesn't have a good matchup on the defensive end, they're rolling with Race.
Late in the game... Rutger went with McConnell at 4 and 3 other guards. Cannot ask Malik to guard McConnell and even in our switches, if Malik is on the court.. its an advantage Rutger.
