MBB With A Sweet Comeback Win Over Maryland POSBANG

Submitted by San Diego Mick on

Down 14 late in the first half and made a little run to cut it to 10 before the half and then just went off in the 2nd half although the game remained tense the whole way, Go Blue!!!

Z needs to take a really big knee bend and and upward motion or go to a granny approach for his free throws.  His form is apparently not condusive to a static shot.  (It really isn't conducive for any shots but he's made it work, sort of...except on the line.  Woof).

Out there who thinks we don’t have the best x’s and o’s guy in college basketball? I’m not saying one of the best. I’m saying THE best.

Uhhh I love Beilein, but man has his teams sucked in clutch situations. Granted a lot of it is luck like the half courters from Wisky and 0su, but his philosophy of letting the other team get a running start and an unimpeded half court attempt makes me wanna die. Also not a fan of our final possessions most of the time. It's usually just hero ball that ends in a bad shot. Drew up a great play tonight tho, would love to see more of that

After taking my 9 year old to the doctor yesterday and dealing with her having strep throat, then my 7 year old puking her guts out all night last night and cleaing up vomit, I sure needed this win to get my spirits up from the last 24 hours.  Thank you MAAR for saving the day!

There’s no reason to have him in- and there needs to be a late sub for him when M goes on D. He cannot ask for the ball rather he needs to take it out or get him out.

Matthews has been pretty bad of late. He needs to pick it up. MAAR was equally as bad until the last minute. Clutch, clutch FT’s

HOW ABOUT POOLE? Holy Cow.

The whole team looked hungover aftrer the big win Saturday. Hell of a job pulling it together at halftime. There is a lot to like about this team both physically and mentally. Really excited about UM hoops moving forward!

Z shouldn't be in the game period..This game was just like the end of LSU loss except LIvers & MAAR saved the day..What does Poole have to do to get more PT? JB took him out and we stopped scoring.

About 2 or so days ago, I said this team needs to fix FT shooting when it matters most, and the overall lack of consistency could hurt them. Some person told me to stop breathing, forgot who.

How about now???

yes, he needs more court awareness there.  on one hand he can't give up an easy two but he has to be aware of that screen and cheat off his man toward the top of the key.  he then would be in good position to switch.  freshmen mistakes.

On the one hand, a terrible first half, and then a dreadful choke to give away a late lead, all against an inferior team at home. On the other, the team has a short turnaround, a million things go wrong, multiple people have uncharacteristically awful games, the other team keeps making wonky shots... and Michigan wins anyway. Knowing that we'd have games like this down the stretch, it's nice to win one. As long as this is an exception and not a new pattern. Given last week, it seems to be a fluke.

Holy stressful! And apparently tonight in the big ten, it’s piss away a big lead night. Both us and MD and Minnesota going to OT after leading big at PSU much of the game.

JB and the basketball team for giving us something to be excited about after that Disaster of a FB season

For the record it was Livers and Matthews who fucked up and let Huerter shoot the wide open three. Livers is a freshman but Jesus, what is Matthews supposed to bring to the team? One putback layup and like five missed free throws a game?
