Thought he shortened his rotation and road his guys for the most part . Love that he left Young in down the stretch and overtime . Still could have maybe given Paul a few less minutes ; he can’t be in with Duke because we are playing 3on 5 offensively .

X’s and O’s wise , I thought Pike toon advantage of Purdue having Eastern on Ron a lot and did a great job of keeping him in the corner to take Eastern out of the game . If Eastern helped , it’s an easy kick to Harper from the strong side .

Additionally I love that Pike road the pick and roll and ghost or dummy pick and roll to get a switch on geo to create a mismatch to let him go on one one . Again , very simple , but very smart . Again , I was in Pike for not running more sets and motion , but sometimes you put your players in a good situation and let them go to work . Thought he out-coached Painter big time down the stretch yesterday

Thought since we have been riding Pike for his offensive coaching he deserves props for adjustments yesterday

For us to win Thursday Geo , Young and Mathis need to play out of their heads... Rutgers will also need production from Akawsi Yeboah , Myles and any combo of Caleb and Mulcahy... we have nothing to lose ... Most in the local and national media expect us to crap the bed...most on the ACC ESPN Channel have made it a point to tell us we are still not in... indirectly but certainly inferred...

We need to defend the three the way we have the last 2 games and we have a good chance to win this game

Stop saying ridiculous things. We are safely in and presently either a 9 or 10 seed. Forget all the other noise . Indiana and Purdue are the ones that have to worry and are on the bubble .
Your other comment about people playing well, well yeah they all have to play well, but Michigan’s not some juggernaut. They were lucky to win both games and if we just had average shooting in either game we win. The guys have to play their normally intense defense and rebound , and push the pace and go uptempo especially off of a turnover. No one has to play out of their heads , just come with their full effort and intensity and good things will happen.

Loves that move to get the switch. Overall we relied on Geo abs Young to make plays. When we aren't pushing the pace let these two make plays and create. Thata where the offense needs to flow through
