I’m sorry but this team is in desperate need of scoring. While JY doesn’t always have “it” he’s one of the few players capable of getting hot and filling it up. The disappearance of Ron necessitates this even more — a winnable, pivotal home game is not the time to dish out a lesson

Yes id rather do it with our basics...ill let Mathis have a chance since he looked in control in his few minutes

Ok frustrating half but stop crying.

We can beat MN if we get back into our game in the second half. I don't think they can sustain their offense if we keep playing good D and stick to the right lineup.

If I'm the voice of positivity in a game thread then something's wrong lol.

Let's go!!!

I think Ron Harper needs to work a little harder on both ends. Does not move much without the ball. Just does not seem to be giving a full effort.

JY gives and takes away. Assume he must have said something. Now has 3 fouls.

Need to relax a little on the player rotations. We are going to play 8 assume the minutes distribution will tighten in the second half.

The point is he had no reason to be trying to dribble through the D when we should be holding for the last shot. That dumb decision is what led to the TO and his foul and the T. Agree that I didn't see why the T was called, but we dont know what JY said either. He's had a pretty uneven game with 4 TOs to go against those 9 points, but I don't most want him to sit - we just want him to play smarter and under more control.

Spot on, He may have been fouled , but he shouldn't have been trying to go between two defenders, on top of the he turned his back while dribbling. Can't do that.

I know he is a freshman but alot of hype i don't see with him

The hype is based of potential. He's a freak athlete. He's just not a freak basketball player. Will he be? We will see. To think, he was ranked right around where Michigan's frosh big was. Night and day right now.

I read these threads and just wonder to myself if people are actually watching the game or listening on the radio.

JY is 3-5, and 2-3 from 3 with 9 points. Then gets fouled and a phantom T gets called on him and people say they dont wanna see him anymore lol. Clown ****

He makes shots but is a turnover machine

Yes. Put the end of the first half behind us, come out with some fire, take control of this game. Absolutely winnable, let’s do this.

Ron needs to get back in the game. I notice when the ball is not going in, it affects his D. He needs to take the elbow jump shots and drive to the basket to get going. The threes will come, but he can't force it now. We need this game.

I love how people are calling the T a phantom call. JY said something and none of us knows what it was. You don't see a lot of Ts being called on players these days so I'm giving the ref the benefit of the doubt.
This board is crazy paranoid about officiating.

Spot on. Or maybe run your best set instead of high pick and roll which is predictable . Call a timeout to set something up .

we only have one end of half and end of game play and that’s Geo hoisting up a shot at the buzzer. No Geo...no play.

You can't turn over the ball with the last shot. Slow down, that is why it is dumb. And Harper has to get into the game.

You have to know what to expect from Young. Over all, he is definitely a net positive. Harper and Cliff are only guys who did nothing for us in first half.
