Rutgers vs Michigan State / Game Thread

[Night Man]

Harper turnover. Time to yell at Young.

Young seems more composed since he's come back in. Not a high bar to clear but if we get this offense w/ hounding Winston on defense that's a huge lift to the team

 

[bethlehemfan]

Harper is close. He realizes he can take guys off the dribble, just hasn't realized it's in a slasher sense and not a point guard sense

Not having a great game. Needs to hang in there.

Nice response to going down 43-32 with an 7-0 run to make it 43-39. Great TO by Pike and Young with 4 straight FTs

Did I call it or what?

 

[jerzeyguy]

Yeboah is our best player. Can we please get him involved smh

 

[bac2therac]

Harper trying to take people all off the dribble in settled situations is an instant turnover. Every time he tries that cross over it gets picked.

ball not being shared enough. I think Pike needs to trust Mulcahy to play alot down the stretch

 

[ScarletDave]

Rutgers brings it back down 4 point game after it looked all but over at 13 mins .. behind GREAT DEFENSE !! And FT shooting by Young. And we get the ball. I want to see a great play call by Pike that gets the ball inside for a big bucket by Shaq or Harper.

 

[toby83]

LOVE the D last 4 possessions

 

[kcg88]

Jacob Young is the pitcher who can throw 100 mph with a wicked slider, he just has no idea where it's going. If you can harness that he's Max Scherzer. Otherwise he's AJ Burnett.

This thread is crazy negative for being in a game against MSU

 

[soundcrib]

I think that was Harper Jr for Mulcahy. Figures that Ron gets picked again driving into traffic.

#FreeMulcahy
#FreeYeboah

 

[BillyC80]

Clearly, getting in the paint is the way to go.

 

[bac2therac]

rebounds almost even now

 

[RU Mike73]

Lead down to 4. Hope is not lost folks.

Oh for some of the drama queens it is. Read some of the posts when we were down 11 two minutes ago.

Slash and kick is working well. Slash and throw up a shot where you're not even looking at the rim is where we're running into problems.

He had his "welcome to high major basketball" game against Pitt, I think he should be allowed to play through this.

It’s Rutgers hoops PTSD.

 

[Shell21]

nice elevator screen there out of the time by Pike gets us 3 fts

 

[bac2therac]

yes free throws matter 7 in a row

 

[BillyC80]

Let’s go! Kwasi with 3 FTs and RU within one!

win or lose tonight was a huge step for the program with Mulcahy

 

[Caliknight]

Winston is so good

 

[BillyC80]

Winston is money.

 

[Night Man]

We ain't the best at front ends

 

[kcg88]

Nobody misses more front ends than us.

 

[BillyC80]

Damn, missed front end.

 

[bac2therac]

Mulcahy!

 

[Night Man]

Oh myyyyyy that play, get Princeton back on the schedule so Geo and Paul can show them how it's done

 

[Scangg]

Winston has slaughtered us in the past. Young playing excellent D

 

[BillyC80]

Wow!

 

[soundcrib]

Aaaaaaand Steve takes out Yeboah.

 

[BillyC80]

Paul is poised as hell tonight. Nice pass by Geo.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Low iq team

 

[czxqa]

They've really stepped up the D

 

[kcg88]

That Steve Pikiell has not sat Mathis down and told him to never throw another lob tells me all I need to know about his lack of coaching.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Theres not a midget in america who complains more than tom izzo

 

[BillyC80]

Tez, please make these.

 

[kcg88]

Theres not a midget in america who complains more than tom izzo

He almost got T'd up when the refs blew a whistle on a foul on Rutgers.

 

[bac2therac]

3 points missed on free throws and then a dagger 3

 

[Caliknight]

Having a 5 that can shoot the 3 is so valuable

 

[RUby RED]

Izzos such a whiny *****
