Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers Hoops vs. Michigan State

[Roy_Faulker]

I find it interesting how animated Izzo is on the sideline yelling at the refs etc...

Need Pike to work the refs a bit more.

 

[King of S]

This is definitely a hangover from Iowa game. Can’t let it linger. I would not want to be at practice the next few days

Need to make sure we don’t lose 4 or 5 in row during this stretch.

 

[Shell21]

Maybe this is the *** kicking we need to light a fire on our guys to make a run. We have Ohio state after a nice rest and then Penn state . Have to regroup and find our swag again. This league is unforgiving . Pike will definitely have their attention in practice

 

[biazza38]

Myles is broken.

Myles has too much frustration in him. I get it. He’s a big center who can’t score. That sucks. But hey, maybe if he made free throws he wouldn’t be fouled every time

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

I think MSU has 20 something turnovers this game and we are down 13. Abysmal.

 

[itsRtime]

Myles has the worst body language I've ever seen.

Mopes around when things don't go his way. Not sure how he blew that alley oop

 

[RUTRINI_rivals]

All out 3 pointers from this

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

We have 9 more shots and 13 less points...

I could be wrong, but I think it’s probably because we didn’t make those shots.

 

[ScarletDave]

Myles is pouting so with Cliff hurt we bacically have no center. Someone slap this guy in the face

 

[RUJMM78]

Fans need to take a step back and realize this team is based on player development and team sharing of the ball.When they get behind the team falls apart because the flaws on offense are so profound and there really is no consistent go to scorer to stop opponent scoring spurts.I believe last years team had more scoring threats with Yeboah and McConnell along with Harper,Mathis and Harper.

 

[richthedentist]

Well Myles to the line here is a turnover

 

[Scarlet Blind_rivals]

You guys do know there are plenty of BIG teams that doesn't play MICHIGAN STATE style defense. Michigan State is killing us in Size and Rebounding in the game.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Another FT attempt. Please no.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

No passes

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Oh great. Myles to the foul line.

 

[RW90]

Oh great. Myles to the foul line.

Just pass the ball back to the ref at this point.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

MJ didn’t bother defending

 

[biazza38]

WTF is Myles doing on D. Two possessions in a row he didn’t defend the driver

 

[TommyGunn_rivals157283]

Boy Izzo really has the whole “whiny ***** face” thing down doesn’t he???

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Get some arc and backspin on these darn FTs. Driving me up the wall.

 

[RU848789]

That's ballgame, 56-40, short of a miracle...

 

[RU MAN]

Bilas has been very complimentary of us considering how $hitty we're playing.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Just pass the ball back to the ref at this point.

Sad, but truth

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

We have 40 points.

 

[newell138]

Over

 

[RU MAN]

Games like this really piss me off. We look like a team from four years ago.

 

[RUskoolie]

Go to bed boys, this game is over.

Team needs to show up ready to play. Iowa and now MSU we look like we are sleep walking.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

We are going to drop like a stone in the polls. We stink.

 

[RW90]

These guys know there are five in the court right?

 

[RUsince52]

No plane just warm up the bus.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Young: 18 shots.

 

[richthedentist]

No ****** offense every possession just one on one

 

[mildone_rivals]

Something is wrong with Johnson. He looks either hurt or sick. Zero energy. At times, he looks like he’s gonna fall over.

 

[IL Lusciato]

Maybe this is the *** kicking we need to light a fire on our guys to make a run. We have Ohio state after a nice rest and then Penn state . Have to regroup and find our swag again. This league is unforgiving . Pike will definitely have their attention in practice

This is what we said the last 2 losses. We are trending in the wrong direction. Looking like huge pretenders.

 

[RU MAN]

Jacob Young, A game to forget. You must've missed 10 bunnies tonight. I love you, but tonight, you SUCKED!

 

[SBP]

JY = Selfish game.

 

[RU848789]

Young is 5-18 and did anyone see Mathis screaming at JY for the ball on that last possession? This team is clearly out of sync and needs to get back in sync quickly or goodbye rankings and more.

 

[Mikemarc]

Not a top 25 team at all

 

[Block R]

These guys know there are five in the court right?

We look like 5 strangers playing pickup ball at the park for the first time. I’m out.

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

This team really still needs a leader. Neither Geo nor Harper have shown that. Disappointing.
