We’re back

And here to stay??

I didn’t wanna say this in game and kept it to myself.

But there were stretches tonight where Hoiberg was absolutely deep dicking Brad Underwood.

Two out of bounds plays that end up with lob dunks?

Two sets where we slip the dribble hand off and get to the rim?

Underwood had no answers.

Yeah he coached a good game tonight.

There were so many missed opportunities to score tonight and blow it open. I thought they left a lot on the table at Wisconsin too. Just haven’t been good offensively for awhile.

I still think across the board they can hang with about anyone in the league. Can be really good defensively when they want to be. Just haven’t a slim margin of error since they can’t string together multiple buckets typically. Will be interesting to see how it goes the rest of the way.

3-7 in the B1G .. have to think we need to finish .500 in conference to get into the dance .. that's going to be tough

There were a couple others where we got Essigian on a back door cut.

Watching the highlights at half of this Oregon game. Dear Lord they let to dude with pig tails do whatever he wants in the lane on rebounds.

Yeah I think you gotta get to 20 wins.

It can be done. We’ll likely need one or two in the big ten tournament. Assuming we can get in…. 😬😬

You mean the B1G tournament right?

To begin the week, there are reputable brackets that still have us on the bubble, with Lunardi as the last 4 out (5 away).

2 Q1 (1 each H & A) wins and 0 bad losses (Q3 & Q4) to date.

We have 8 Q1's remaining with 3 of them at PBA. Gives us an opportunity to have more Q1 wins than a season ago.

It's a tall order, but if we can split this road trip with Oregon/Washington and sweep the home games against Ohio St and Maryland we would be back on the right side of the bubble.

Find a way to sweep the road series and you might already be there….

Loved HH winning the dunk contest. Hoping Harper and him stick together so that they can produce 3-4 great athletes for us in 2047

Just when I think I’m out…

Ok. They’re also 3-7 in the conference in a 3 way tie for 14th place and 1 for their last 7. Let’s just make the B1G tournament first.
