B1G Tournament Friday Watch Thread

[Dryfly88]

2 minutes to go in 1st half. Ducks hanging in there. MSU with only 4 fouls......

 

[Dryfly88]

Got away from the Ducks in the last 2 minutes down by 10 at halftime. MSU finished the half with 4 team fouls......MSU was in double bonus of course.

Watching this game, I thought if we had Angel of Oregon, in place of Furst , how very much better we would be.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Four fouls in a half...brings to mind what Bob Huggins said to the officials in the 2010 national semi against Duke after Da'Sean Butler was injured: "But they don't foul, right? They don't foul."

Like his game too.
Bittle is a good big man also. They have a nice team.

 

[Dryfly88]

Game of runs. Ducks go on 11-2 to get back in it, but MSU comes back with 10-0 to take control back. Ducks look to be in trouble now.

Don't know about the B1G tourney but I wached the VCU-St Bon game. And flipped to Memphis-WSU and Kennesaw-Liberty.

Sure. Get smaller and slower. Think more like Wilt or Kareem or Bill Russell.

I think Caleb is more important tonight

 

[Chi-Boiler]

Wisconsin is 12-17 from 3.

 

[boilerzz]

Wisky with a first half effective FG% of 91.3% against one of the better defenses in the B1G. Maybe we aren't that bad after all.

Angel is 1 inch shorter than Furst but much more productive at everything.

And he moves as well or better!

6-8 vs. 6-10 and the latter a lap faster on foot and in mind than the underachieving Duck-walker.

Keep up BS, it's a thread for the B1G tourney. Nothing to add?? Then stay away. I'm sure there are plenty of threads on your team's site about how good you will be next year.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Maryland up big on Illinois 29-10 about midway through first half. Illini shooting is frigid so far, and the Terps are 5/7 from deep with Rice hitting 4/5.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

57-31, Maryland at the half - putting some stank on it in blasting the Illini so far....wowzer. They have had Illinois' number recently.

Rodney Rice - 18 points - (5/7 on 3pt FG's) and 9 points from Jordan Geronimo.

Turnovers - Illinois 9, Maryland 0

3pt shooting - Illini 3/14; Terps 8/14

 

[boilerzz]

That’s the most impressive half of basketball I’ve seen from a B1G team this year!

 

[proudopete]

Terps are surging

 

[Chi-Boiler]

I don't know if it was Hummel or the other guy, but one of them said "That wasn't a perfect half but it was close." Seriously? How more perfect could it be? 57 points and zero turnovers.

9/11 from the FT line very good too and they got Ivisic in foul trouble quickly. If I were nitpicking, only 12/30 from inside the arc and gave up a couple of second chances.

Of course, that's like kicking out Marilyn Monroe because she brought potato chips.

All in all, yeah - very impressive from a Maryland team that could do some damage the way it is playing.

 

[Chi-Boiler]

How does one pick a game involving Illinois in the tournament? And imagine if they play Kansas in an 8-9 game.

Illini are the quintessential Russian Roulette bracket participant....I don't know how you confidently project any result with them.....good or bad. They do have Morez Johnson Jr. back from a wrist injury.

Hopefully Rice gets this out of his system and comes back down to earth tomorrow.

Totally presuming we beat UM tonight.

I would have like to see us get Payne from Minny

Payne is definitely tough but a bit of a head case. Very foul prone as well.

But I agree on one point...he would've helped us this year with post depth.

 

[Chi-Boiler]

Underwood keeping his regulars in down 30. Maryland has already emptied the bench. I guess they only want to lose by 25 instead of 32.

Tom Thibodeau would be proud.
