Okay guys you played a HORRIBLE GAME and still won. Now, you need to to focus and play a hell of a better game against Minny if you want to beat them.

Need to beat Minnesota. Schedule gets dicey so we need to get as many of these wins as possible.

Nuance will be in the dance in the future
Pretty fluid, long arms and smooth. Reminds me a little of Grant Hill

A must win and we got it. Not pretty but it won’t matter if we make the NCAA tournament. Only need 4 more wins... can’t get picky with how we win them.

Ugly grind it out win, but you take it on the road and get the hell out of there . Horrible shooting and too loose with the ball. Please stop with the lob passes . Need to clean that up but defense travels

I'm sorry, make that 31-11. After 67-37 against MSU can we make this one 75-33? :>)
This post didn't age well, lol. Right after this I had to go to the store to get some stuff for the wife, so I was behind on the DVR and just caught up. Imagine my surprise when I saw the 31-11 lead shrink to 34-29 at the half - some really bad play in that stretch with bad TOs, poor defense and poor shots. And then we grind it out to get back up 55-40 and I think we're in the clear and then another bad sretch where they cut it to 55-50 with about 3 minutes left and now it's nail biting time. But we did close out the end nicely - how about that fadeaway by Harper to go up 57-50 - key shot. Maybe not the blowout it looked like, but an 8-point road win is still a good win and that's now 3 in a row and we're back to 0.500 in conference. Choppy game with a ton of fouls - holy crap just saw that it was 21 fouls on them to 20 on us - 41 fouls! And 20 TOs by them and 18 by us. Ugly.

Loved what I saw from JY. Caleb also does the intangible.

Ron slowly and I reiterate slowly getting the shot. Mid range is there. 3 is a goner right now.

Cliff needs to watch some tape of D
