Minnesota v. Purdue Game Thread

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

The Golden Gophers invade Mackey Arena to battle the Boilers; network coverage on BTN.

Can the Boilers keep up the positive momentum in their second conference game? Expect the Gophers to turn up the heat on some pressure.....it will be interesting to see how the Boilers handle it.

Can't take anything or any team for granted.

Boiler up, my friends.

Spike will get some minutes per CMP................hopefully that is good luck

 

[Erock_94]

BTFU. Do it!

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

IH on a roll with the opening tips all of a sudden.

 

[TC4THREE]

They are attacking us inside early.

 

[PU pit bull]

Someone's hot and it ain't PU.........wow

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Not....a....good.....start......sheesh.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

sleepwalking out there

 

[BoilerDeac]

Get Haas out

 

[TC4THREE]

Not Norfolk State today. Going to have to play well to win just like the rest of the conference schedule.

This has to be the end of Swanigan and Haas on the floor at the same time. It just doesn't work against teams with less than four words in their school name.

It's early.
Haas needs to get deeper on his posts and make better decision on the kickouts.

It can work if Haas comes to play. When he plays soft and doesn't feel the defense he's not going to play well no matter who is on the floor with him. The problem is that we've seen way too much of the bad, tentative Haas the past month or so.

 

[JohnnyDoeBoiler]

Carsen is getting beat off the dribble and playing poor defense right now

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

so coach you gonna adjust or what?

 

[IndySouthsider]

Just wow

No it doesn't work. Not against teams who know how to prepare to defend against it and to attack against it.

Make a change, Painter.

 

[bonefish1]

Need a couple 3's and we're back in it.

 

[ahhculdee]

Playing like dog crap. Can't come out of this type of hole now.

 

[JohnnyDoeBoiler]

also doesn't help that Haas is being very slow with his decisions in the post. 3 TO's as well to Minny's hot shooting

 

[PU pit bull]

Need a good old fashioned 20-0 run........................

 

[IndySouthsider]

They are 7-7! Shooting lights iut

 

[TC4THREE]

Make a change, Painter.

When Haas posts deep and reads the defense it works well. When he acts like he is one-on-one as soon as he catches the ball, he turns it over way too much and takes poor quality shots.

I agree he needed to come out but it was based on his play, not the lineup.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

ok...cmon Boilers.

 

[TC4THREE]

Will need to step it up.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

That's it...gotta turn up the intensity on the defensive end!

 

[PU pit bull]

New game..........confidence is coming around again

 

[depthcharge623]

[TopSecretBoiler]

[PU pit bull]

[Boiler Wolf]

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

[Purdue Grad in Texas]
