BobSaccamanno Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 5 hours ago, mchenry34 said: This is one of my criticisms of Archie's actions...it is usually 15-20 seconds of movement all designed to get a post touch...but because we walk it up, that means TJD has about 8-9 seconds to make something happen when he gets it, so doubles can be aggressive with no time for us to make them pay... BTW, crean was the king of this...all of his sets were designed with false movement where we wouldn't even look at the players moving because the whole thing was just to get a particular player the ball in a particular spot with either a ball screen or a clear out...super annoying Good post. Ā Itās pretty bad. Ā Without actually counting, it seems like we have 4-6 possessions a game that get squandered because we are pressed right before the shot clock goes off. Ā As Archie says, missed front end of a one and one is like a turnover. Well so are these! Ā And itās happening too often to chalk it up to just one of those things.

IU Scott Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 If we can't take advantage of this home game against Minnesota I think that will tell all you need to know about this team.Ā Minnesota played a late Sunday night game in Maryland and will fly all the way back to Minnesota.Ā Then they will have to turn right around and fly to Bloomington on Tuesday.Ā With the weather forecast that might no be an easy trip.Ā IU played an early Saturday game and probably got back to Bloomington sometime in the early evening.Ā So we should have all the advantages plus Minnesota is 0-7 on the road this year.

I hope so too as we will obviously be in good shape for the tourney if we win the next two. I think MSUās only decent win was against Rutgers. Iām not sure if injured players, Covid,etc were a factor/reasonĀ but MSU beat Rutgers by 23Ā and then lost to them by 30 a few weeks later. Ā Kind of crazy.

IU Scott Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 On ESPNU they are showing a HS game and both teams are from Minnesota.Ā The #1 player in the country in Chet Holgrem and the other team has a 4 star big man who is going to Michigan.Ā Not sure where Holgrem will end up but probably not Minnesota.Ā If Minnesota had a coach who could keep the in state players in state they would be very good. Also must be a Minnesota state rule for players to wear mask during the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 I think their going to have to change both rims at Mackey Arena because of all the bricks that is hitting those rims.

TheWatShot Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 I feel like every game, there's about a 5-6 minute stretch where Purdue barely scores...and somehow, their opponent always ends up scoring less.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) Trevion Williams is a great post player. 2nd best in the B1G as far as I'm concerned. So tricky down low. He's really good at using his body to create space, and he has such a soft touch around the rim. He and Edey have 18 of the Boilers 30 points.
