Purdue Stole One Tonight

[BoilerInChiTown]

Literally as CE put back was after the shot clock, but we will take. We will need to play better if we are going to have a chance to win the B1G though. Good win.

But we were 1-13 in Value City until tonight so I will take it!!!!

made up for the garbage Loving threw in at the 1/2.

A little luck but lots of effort. I feel like second chance shots were the difference. Hard work often creates luck. Indeed a nice road win.

We had so many other calls go against us that I don't feel a bit bad about getting that one.

English major?

Makes up for the foul on PJ for getting in the way but letting the guy have his 2. That was borderline ridiculous.

 

[depthcharge623]

Yeah notably the foul just after that on the other end (missed the front end of a one and one) was complete BS. It went both ways. We played with more intensity on average and won because of it.

Really like E & E tonight.

Kline need to get out of his funk and shoot like he normally does, and Haas need to finish at the rim if we are going to have any chance in winning the B1G. And what the hell was with all the OSU fast break baskets that almost doomed us?
Biggie had an off night but still finished with another double/double. And yes, the officiating was terrible tonight.

Yea. Just came barreling through the lane and jumped through 2 players to get the rebound and the foul was on us. That and when Carsen swiped the ball from someone and they bailed them out with a foul call that we weren't even close to getting on the other end. Then there were at least 2-3 more instance of them getting cheap bail out fouls in the 2nd half. I'm glad we won so I can talk about it without being accused of sour grapes but it was bad.

I like seeing Cline drive the ball and play inside the arc like he's been doing. I feel like Haas goes up and questions himself on whether to go glass or just Swiss his layups. This causes him to miss some bunnies.

I personally liked the jump ball call when the OSU player was standing out of bounds. Basic officiating would be nice.

I want Haas to start going at the basket like he is going to try and bring it down to the floor like Shaq. One of Shaq's best attributes was the intensity and ferocity that he attacked toward the basket...not the player. IMO, Hass frequently allows the defender to get him off balance when making his move (also, defenders have noticed that Hass rarely goes baseline and will never spin to his right shoulder when he gets the ball on the left side of the floor...always towards the middle and that is where the help is going) instead of just attacking the rim.

This. I thought we would and should win, but you take any road win in league play, especially against a solid (albeit not great) opponent. Good win by the Boilers.
