Izzo is GREAT coach. He knows all he has to do is not let us run and make us play in the half court.
Jake Young came to play...nobody else did
Why isn't Myles getting the ball on the block? He towers over that shrimp!

the dribbling tonight is worse than a bunch of 3rd graders..got to move the ball around
Everyone’s overlooking how bad Geo’s two fouls are hurting the team right now. Caleb cannot keep the team in sync the same way Geo does.
He's already taken 11 shots and the half isn't over. Needs to create for others. Young taking 25 shots is not going to win this game.
Somehow we are only down 4. You can see how bad we are in the half court when teams pack the paint . We can’t get out in transition at all today
MSU has played really good D, but that is amplified by stagnant offense and ball movement.
12 turnovers for Sparty is the only reason we are still in it
looks like we are at midcourt when we take shots and have abandoned any desire to rebound tonight....21-13

Izzo has to be worried, only up 4 when RU is playing it’s worst half of the year.
Good scouting – – uncontested three years have been going in and contested shots in the lane have not.
this is where bad Mathis has hurt us tonight, with Geo out someone has to step up in the last minutes of the half
It had a dream once that I needed to run but my legs wouldn't work. This game fes like that.
Yeah was thinking about this before the game and wondering to myself if the reason we don’t beat them is because typically they’re athletic enough to stifle our transition and we’ve never had a half court threat against them.
But, I then proceeded to take RU on the Moneyline lol
We still don’t have a good halfcourt offense. But for me the reasons we’ve been so much better offensively this year for me are:
1) Jacob Young playing more minutes, and usually (not early tonight) dominating the ball when in half court
2)Not passing on open 3s early in the shot clock
3) emphasizing transition offense
Young is battling. The rest of the team is playing soft and tentative. High as they are playing, we should be going on backdoor cuts constantly. But we’re just watching the ball.
