Rutgers vs Northwestern / Game Thread

[koleszar]

I need a new hobby. This one sucks. Maybe I'll build a Messerschmitt instead.

This team will kick themselves if they lose this game at home

This is an inexcusable loss if it turns out that way

 

[zebnatto]

Unreal

Good D, Issa.

 

[Mikemarc]

Stupid stupid decisions. 2 chances earlier to take lead and heave a pair of threes.

Just not smart basketball players

 

[BillyC80]

Thiam gives up two 3-pointers. Ugh.

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

They have a lot of complete basketball players. We have very few.

 

[fluoxetine]

Really not sure we're seeing improvement..

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

LOL ISSA AGAIN

 

[gmay8]

Holy cow we’re horrible. I’d give my arm for some friggen shooters

 

[rufeelinit]

Two bad teams. FT woes makes it difficult to win a game like this.

 

[Mikemarc]

Really not sure we're seeing improvement..

Mathis is only player I’ve seen consistent improvement in since game 1

 

[ScarletDave]

Can’t win a game scoring in the 50s. Had so many chances at the free throw line. It was said, the game will be won or lost at the line. Well we lost it. That’s it. Same old same old

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

issa cannot close out on any defender and awlays gets caught on cross court screens. Every game whoever he is guarding hits 4+ threes. Get him out of there

 

[RUsince52]

This team will kick themselves if they lose this game at home

Get the boots on now.

 

[koleszar]

Doorson's an idiot. One guy under the basket and we foul him.

 

[BillyC80]

Looks like we’re toast. Damn.

 

[Ru-baby]

Issa consistently has 3s sunk right in his face. Consistently. His purported length asset is no nada zilch factor

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Doorson is absolutely clueless.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

:flush:

 

[RUsince52]

Really not sure we're seeing improvement..

Dis-improvement !

 

[bethlehemfan]

Geo was the difference here. Need better players

 

[Jim_from_RU]

I’m so unbelievably pissed.

 

[ScarletDave]

From now on for the rest of the season the second Issa Thiam steps on the court I’m turning it off. I don’t care if we’re up 10 on Michigan. I’m done letting these idiots waste my time

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Geo was the difference here. Need better players

He regressing like a few others. First time that my faith is a little shaken.

 

[RU82]

We suck

 

[DHajekRC84]

As crappy as the refs were..it was still 13 of 21 vs. 8 of 11 th before those last two. RU favor.
And 4 of 16. Vs. 9 of 20 3 pts. NU favor.
Our shooting remains HORENDOUS.

Anything normal, avg. Is a win.

 

[fluoxetine]

We need to recruit someone who is not a failure.

 

[kcg88]

I mean at some point we'll face a team that shoots sub-40% from 3. But man we give up some easy ones.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Every team we play has better players.

 

[RUsince52]

Like the announcers said, catch and release threes. We NEVER make those any time.

 

[ScarletDave]

We had this game. Tied it up, all the momentum, had the last run. But somehow are gonna lose by almost 10. To a terrible and depleted team, at home. Basement here we come again.

 

[soundcrib]

Too often this board wants players to be what they aren’t. How about we recruit someone that’s exactly what we need.

 

[bethlehemfan]

The freshman are good. Need to follow up with more.

 

[Ru_Ie2012]

how tf is Issa still in the game. Wtf is Pike watching?

 

[kcg88]

Kiss not in when we need 3s????

 

[greenknight]

2 things if we coukd shoot a foul shot we would have won.....and Thiam is a liability offensively and defensively

 

[zebnatto]

I can deal with a bunch but not Issa being in the game.

 

[RUsince52]

Every team we play has better players.

Or they play better (smarter) than us.

 

[Roy_Faulker]

They have a lot of complete basketball players. We have very few.

Unfortunately, we find ourselves saying this too often about the opposing team....

 

[rufeelinit]

I’m so unbelievably pissed.

I seem to have become numb to it all.
