Only 1.7 more per game on avg so far. But hope he gets his legs ready for Michigan. (I expect he will)

That's a bit of a flawed way to look at it. Yes, he averaged 34 minutes last year and is averaging 35.8 minutes this year. But prior to the foul trouble last night, he had averaged 38 minutes over his previous 10 games with 6 of those 10 being 39 minutes or more. That's a lot to ask a 21 year old, especially when you throw in the trips to both coasts in the last couple of weeks.

This offseason Purdue needs to bring in 1-2 portal kids, guessing a player or probably 2-3 leave out, even if they don’t Coach needs a big and maybe a back up PG for depth. This season has sort of been the Big 3 and occasionally a player or two stepping up, need more than that. Colvin and Heide have been disappointing so far this season.

Someone else mentioned how many minutes Braden has played this year and expressed concern. I mentioned that Matt doesn't see it as an issue, but Braden looked like it caught up with him last night. Maybe that was just an off game for Braden that didn't relate to fatigue from playing a ton of minutes and coming off of the West Coast road trip, but I'd be surprised if that were the case.

They had lapses , but the D wasn’t that bad. They allowed a streak shooter to “get his head up” and then he was just stepping back and firing away. Surprised after the first four threes Purdue didn’t double him, at least a soft double. They also forced OSU to use the full shot clock 4 times and they hit four buzzer beating threes. One of those nights. Started in the first half when a well guarded awkward shot for two banked in.

Very good points on them hitting 4 or 5 shot clock buzzer beaters. Like you said, one of those nights and gotta move on and get ready for the twin towers that has one who is a point center.

what rights does someone have who breaks our laws? Illegals shouldn't be afforded rights since they came here illegally.
Claiming asylum....Fine, go through the proper channels, you might just not be able to get a free ride here while awaiting to go through the process.

Or if they are going to do it, spread it out a week.. We have a week break between UM and Indinia (I think) .. that would be a good rotation for going out west. Both on fridays no less.
Click to expand...
Yeah don’t understand why the quick turnaround for the west coast games but now there’s a week gap between Michigan and IU? IU has a lot of days off between the game before they come to Mackey.

Scheduling is weird haha

Smith has to hit the rim on the intentional miss to at least give them a chance to get the rebound.

Easier said than done 😂
He was trying to go quick to catch OSU off guard.

If he had hit two more regular shots or we don’t allow Thornton to hit a wide open 3 at the end of the first half, things could have been different. Also, had he not picked up a silly 2nd foul, we may have been able to extend the lead even more in first half…him and TKR were gettin WHATEVER they wanted on the PnR.

I fear that they are exhausted from the west coast trip and only having 2 days in between these games is gonna make it worse. It’s time for the big 3 to step up and push the rest of the team to produce. It’s also time for Smith to get everyone involved on offense.

I couldn't agree more. It looked to me like when they arrived in Washington that they were already tired. How many shots hit the front of the rim there? Oregon was better but after those 2 tough games we returned even more worn out. Playing anybody on a regular basis on the west coast is a bad idea.

Two superior athletic teams coming up. They struggle getting good shots at times with these type of teams.

They need to hit some threes early.

Michigan’s strength is their front court and their back court has struggled.

IU is all over the place. Talent is there to be very good but coaching has made that talent look lost and bad.

We need to shoot more than 9 3s though. If we don’t, puts a lot of pressure on making a high % of them on low volume. If you don’t, then it’s difficult to win when the other team is making a lot of them (this has been IUs struggle during Woody and was our struggle last night).

Two seed talk

If you read an earlier post of mine, you would have seen I said ratings and bracket predictions in January were a bit premature. I went on to say a 6 seed was as good as a 2 seed. That was after the Oregon win and before the OSU loss. And there were comments about me being a blind squirrel gathering nuts. I hate to be the barer of bad news but this blind squirrel you keep dissing is more accurate than the majority of this board. You don’t don’t understand why and that’s why you love to diss me!

But since you don’t believe my words, just carry on and look stupid!

Oh yeah, I can see us being a #2 seed. Oh sure! It’s time some of you came back down to Earth. Purdue’s chances of being a 2 seed are about the same as Edey making rookie of the year. It’s possible but I’m not going to put money down and bet on it.

As losses go, this was not a quality one. We looked too far into the future. And kind of took OSU at home as a given. I’ve seen this too often from Purdue teams, especially in the tourney when they look ahead to the second game and forget to take care of business against the easy opponent.

Purdue’s basketball history is filled with broken records. You come off a big win, receive personal awards, talk about painter being a hall of famer deserving of a lifetime contract and then the team lays an egg against an easy team

You’re not accurate. You just post things we already know and have already happened lol.

And you also post ridiculous things like “a 6 seed is as good as a 2 seed”. Why would this be? Do you understand the history of the tournament and seeding?
