Northwestern at Purdue: MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD

NW 13 turnovers has to be up toward its season high - they have also taken an inordinate number of deep ones today..... 7/24 now.

Good game plan from Painter, and great execution from the Boilers.

Still need to get Heide going, but pretty good contribution from guys like RB, Furst, obviously Cox, and even Colvin and Harris a bit. Little of that depth and confidence in that bench is going to be very important.
 
another nice game for Furst. we don't really need him to do anything. Just give us 25 minutes and allow TKR to play the 4,and heide to come off the bench, and let Coliv, Cox, and Harris battle it out for the 3 spot.

Painter obviously realized playing small ball wasn't working. He went back to what makes Purdue great. a Big man and control the tempo.
 
If we can just get that production from Furst each game - with Cox continuing to improve, few 3s from Colvin, few buckets from Harris we still have some growth coming the next two months! Heide is beyond frustrating right now but he still has time.
Agreed. I think in reality we won’t always get it but if we can get it on the road, we can steal a few potentially and keep up the chase for another conf championship.

Tough to play small ball when a lot of the B1G has multiple 7 footers
