Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers vs. DePaul

[MS-RU]

We have to be the worst 3 point shooting team in the country. It’s absolutely pathetic.

 

[scarknight90]

Agree that off ball movement needs to be better.

Rutgers clearly looks like the better team, but also looks like they need to get into the game. DePaul has THREE lucky buckets that have kept them in it.

 

[bac2therac]

I think we are better....but lineup is key

I know. Oh I know.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Mag in before jones is interesting.

We must lead the nations in long 2 attempts which statistically is the worst shot in basketball

 

[kt124]

prayers that jalen miller has a jumper

 

[bac2therac]

i dont want Mag in there

 

[RU848789]

harper must have 10 rebounds right now, and that ugly pass

Only 5, but I know what you mean, as it's 5 of our 8 - he's easily our MVP so far this year

 

[GM]

Positives-Defense, Geo hitting some shots
Negatives- Shooting, Rebounding

This is the worst team in the Big East, we better be better

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Jones better not be in permanent crap house over that T that should have gone both ways

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

This color guy is super critical, more so than the typical sugarcoated stuff. It’s actually kinda refreshing.

 

[Shell21]

I believe there is literally no emphasis on shot selection and ball movement in practice.

 

[RW90]

Stop shooting from deep RU

Fixed it for you

 

[zappaa]

Pike has a problem with Jones?

 

[BigEastPhil]

Interesting that Mag in game before Jones. 2nd time this season.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Fixed it for you

Lol. Truth.

But I love the 3 ball, so I continue to hope one falls.

We have to prove we can hit long twos first.

 

[CharlieCPA]

Announcers seem to be DePaul homers.

 

[kt124]

Jones just checked in lol everyone relax

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Jones in!

 

[BillyC80]

Interesting that Mag in game before Jones. 2nd time this season.

Guessing it has something to do with defense.

 

[SantaFeScarlet]

Thank goodness the arena's empty, imagine what this would be like if it was packed.... As we say in New Mexico no bueno

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Jones just checked in lol everyone relax

Immediate board to boot

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

This is an interesting lineup.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Wow. Mag.

 

[kt124]

mag did not know it was a 5 on 4, but i’ll give him a pass for canning the three

 

[RU848789]

i dont want Mag in there

Great assist and a trey - maybe your standards are too high, lol...

 

[BillyC80]

Mag fir 3!

 

[RU206]

Mag was only a 2??

 

[DHajekRC84]

How about that interior passing? We have to stop giving the ball away (Geo twice)

Losest handle .. always dribbles out in front..but 5 years later folks want him at the point. Pike has failed on the point guard since Souf. ( Not allowed to mention JY)

And let me add it's probably held geo back.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Need that from Agee

 

[kt124]

i.. i think i like this lineup

 

[zappaa]

Saw no foul

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Mag was only a 2??

It was a 3 to me. Review that please

 

[koleszar]

This lineup looks actually good on offense movement and passing for easy shots

 

[BillyC80]

Agee nice finish

 

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

Agee should never play.

[bac2therac]

its funny but the bench players do look more polished then the starters

 

[Eagleton95.99]

Good rebounding. Reminds me of the scrappy Pikel teams pre-2019.
