Michigan Charlotte snowflake thread
Good to beat any team by 55 points. Even if it's Charlotte, we didn't beat NMU or Le Moyne like this. Wagner needs to bring that type of game when we go up against Texas tomorrow. Fuck Axs television

I blame the BTN. Why do I pay for that useless channel?
November 26th, 2015 at 11:41 PM ^
shit network thats not even available in a lot of places and coverage is like local cable access tv

3 games and I cant watch anyone of them....I HATE AXS TV

Go here:
You have to navigate thru the pop-ups and the rigamarole but once you do, you can livestream ANY sporting event. The pic isn't crystal clear and if there are a lot of people streaming, it can be choppy but it's been my "when all else fails" go-to site for a couple years now. I watched the Xavier game. AXS is horrible. Felt like I was watching a highschool ball game on public access.

- Wagner was great. Provided a spark on offense and his defense was better today. Manned up against a 7 foot Lithuanian and held his own.
- Irvin is slowly getting better. Walton was much more aggressive.
- Spike is clearly still hurting - hasn't done much yet - using MAAR instead is ok, but he needs to get some dribble drive penetration and kick out to create opportunities for our shooters.
- Robinson is still just a shooter... but at least he was hitting shots today. If he can hit 50% plus, he'll be a pretty good asset to stretch the floor.

More Than Just A Shooter™ ?

Awesome final score. Disappointed i was unable to actually watch the game instead of checking gamecast.
November 26th, 2015 at 11:41 PM ^
You missed out. Lots of good looking shots and put backs. Wagner made some nice spin moves too. Doyle had a monster jam.
November 26th, 2015 at 11:42 PM ^
Sad face. I will definitely be checking out some highlights when they become available.

AXS was fine... but the same commercial is annoying. I don't care about your resort/casino or timeshare.

We haven't had a 100 point game in a while. This calls for a 100 POINT POSBANGG!!!!!
November 26th, 2015 at 11:43 PM ^
I was already posbanging everyone in here because of the dirty negger lurking in the thread!
November 26th, 2015 at 11:44 PM ^
Doesn't matter who it was against.
This is what this team can do...I'm just highly skeptical that it can be done on a consistent basis.
I said it yesterday, this team will win a couple of games it probably "shouldn't" as in...clear "upsets." Even though we can beat anyone.
The problem is we'll lose games we shouldn't as well.
But for tonight, enjoy, this was an impressive performance.
November 26th, 2015 at 11:47 PM ^
Just got to shoot well. I'm glad we didn't settle for the 3 so much like we did against UConn. If Irvin gets back to 100% and Walton gets more consistent, this could be a pretty good team. I still want to see more from Dawkins and DJ Wilson.
November 26th, 2015 at 11:50 PM ^
And therein lies the problem.
You're not always going to shoot well. No one is. Maybe Steph Curry - we don't have Steph Curry.
So we're going to beat teams that are better than us because we do shoot well...we'll lose games we shouldn't because we don't.
I've said all year, I consider us a #7-10 seed and I think we have one hot shooting game in the tourney and knock off a #1 or #2 seed before losing in the Sweet 16. That's a realistic season in my eyes.
Looking forward to seeing how we fair tomorrow.
November 26th, 2015 at 11:59 PM ^
Well, it's about shot selection. Today was much better shot selection. Using the bigs for layups, reverse layups and put backs. Those are high percentage shots that we need in every game.
November 27th, 2015 at 12:33 AM ^
I preface this by saying I/my family I am with don't get AXS TV (I'm not actually convinced it exists) so I can't compare shot selection yesterday against today.
But over the course of a season open threes should be the best shot available other than a layup or a dunk (you have to shoot 60% from 2 to get the same EV as 40% from 3). But they are also random enough that an offense that relies on perimeter shooting (at least at this level) will necessarily be inconsistent. Which is all to say that even selecting good shots, nothing (against real opposition) will be guaranteed with this team unless someone can develop as a threat at 4/5.
November 27th, 2015 at 8:40 AM ^
have we lost any games yet that we should have won?
November 26th, 2015 at 11:51 PM ^
I got to watch from start to finish and it aired on some kind of amateur channel. This felt lke a local broadcast station.
November 27th, 2015 at 12:03 AM ^
Blame Mark Cuban.
November 26th, 2015 at 11:52 PM ^
That is all
November 26th, 2015 at 11:52 PM ^
November 26th, 2015 at 11:58 PM ^
But are you ready to take a leap of faith on this team's chances?
November 27th, 2015 at 12:02 AM ^
Well, it's the team we got for this year. We'll see. Luckily, the B1G is pretty soft so I think we'll hold up once Irvin gets back to 100%.
November 27th, 2015 at 12:09 AM ^
OK. But where is your cheesy pun about the Atlantis resort?
November 26th, 2015 at 11:53 PM ^
Awesome offensive performance...he had ZERO rebounds. I'd like to see him play the 4 against the teams that push us around.
Walton-LeVert-Irvin-Wagner-Doyle...with Dawkins coming off the bench for LeVert/Irvin in a 3 man rotation there isn't a bad lineup against bigger/stronger teams. Albrecht to backup Walton, Chatman and Wilson as your backup 4 and 5. An 8 man rotation is too short for a season, but for a game here and there...that would hold up.
November 27th, 2015 at 12:01 AM ^
The rebounds were almost picked up too quickly by Walton. The guards were all over the place grabbing rebounds that there wasn't really anything for him to get his hands on. There were a few that he almost rebounded, but he just put it back and got the points instead.

Our team outrebounded them 38-24. The way we operate, our bigs often don't rack up huge rebounding totals. They box out the opposing team's big guy and then Walton or other guards swoop in and grab the defensive board.
November 27th, 2015 at 12:15 AM ^

Score was flipped the whole game on MGoBlue.com. Scared the heck out of me. I feel much better now.
November 27th, 2015 at 12:20 AM ^
November 27th, 2015 at 12:28 AM ^
Even if you think Wagner is the best center based off of this game (a dubious assertion at best), Doyle is your number 2 center clearly. DJ Wilson is nice but he really shouldn't be a center.
