Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers Hoops vs. Michigan State

[BillyC80]

We play too loose when we think we’re better than the other team.

 

[Degaz-RU]

That TO came 2 mins too late, no effort to start the game

Yeah, I was screaming for him to call a TO when it was 4-2

 

[RUsince52]

We look like we're just going thru the motions running plays and they are taking advantage with easy baskets. Not set on defense because of the pace.

 

[rtabachk]

If I see one more Liberty commercial I'm going to choke someone out

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Just admit you hate pike

I think this fan base overrated him. As ive said, he gives us a high floor but really low ceiling. Think of it like building a house on a hill with 6 foot ceilings.

 

[shields]

Johnson is bad on O. Can't make easy shots.

 

[IL Lusciato]

We are definitely better than them, but man, sloppy play is going to kill us. Same as against Iowa. Time to get their heads outta their asses if they want to be for real.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Return of the most Fairweather fan I've ever seen

Nah, just call it like it is. We dont run an offense, its an issue

 

[bac2therac]

might be good for them to get a reality check

 

[RUsojo]

put in Paul please

Would be fine with more Paul tonight when Loyer is out there. Put him in for Geo

 

[RUSeaGirtMA]

Love this team, but they have the potential to be great. They’re not currently great.
We all know they have to make layups and foul shots. It’s a mystery why they simply don’t improve in these areas.
If they do improve, they could be great. If they don’t, they will settle into mediocrity. It’s not too complicated.

 

[IL Lusciato]

This is pretty pathetic so far.

 

[RUsojo]

GET GEO OUT

 

[biazza38]

What are we doing. Horrible passes. This could get bad

 

[RU848789]

Geo has been horrible tonight - we look so sloppy

 

[koleszar]

WTF kind of pass was that Geo?

Geo is useless right now get him out.

 

[zebnatto]

Unwatchable

 

[bac2therac]

why are they playing like they have ants on their pants....its comical

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Absolute shitshow so far

 

[Caliknight]

Geo looks like a freshmen tonight.

Pike sending a message taking half the team out.

 

[RUsojo]

This lineup is brutal

 

[biazza38]

GET GEO OUT

He’s been awful

 

[bac2therac]

you dont have to play at 150mph speed..good lord

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

They need to slow the f down.

 

[rtabachk]

They need to slow it down on offense and defend the 3 on defense.

 

[RU Mike73]

2 for 8 and 0 for 2.

 

[BillyC80]

Good tie up.

 

[RUJMM78]

This is the type of performance on the road that Rutgers has shown in previous years.Shooting bricks and no semblance of organization.

 

[bac2therac]

they are not going to call fouls...bad move trying to have Caleb shoot

 

[tfio]

Bilas is trying to hype us up and we’re just giving him nothing lol

 

[Caliknight]

Caleb looks weak at the hoop.

 

[rtabachk]

Yes that's what Harper needs to do

 

[biazza38]

I think this fan base overrated him. As ive said, he gives us a high floor but really low ceiling. Think of it like building a house on a hill with 6 foot ceilings.

You think Pike is overrated? You don’t know Rutgers basketball then

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

McConnell is so good on D.

 

[newell138]

And yet we are only down by 3

 

[BillyC80]

Good D by Caleb.

 

[tfio]

**** yea Myles great effort

 

[RUsojo]

Not sure what Paul was doing on S there but nice job by Myles

 

[bac2therac]

Sparty has 7 turnovers already

 

[RUSeaGirtMA]

Myles - wow!
