Michigan leading 11-7, 15:00 left in the first half
December 11th, 2021 at 6:38 PM ^
Dickinson the gunner!
December 11th, 2021 at 6:38 PM ^
Win The Game!!
December 11th, 2021 at 6:38 PM ^
HD is on fire!
December 11th, 2021 at 6:39 PM ^
LOL I guess I was typing when you posted. Decent start so far. Jones with a foul just now. Same ole, same ole.
Go Blue!
December 11th, 2021 at 6:40 PM ^
Dickinson showing a nice outside touch early, and Jones still committing silly fouls.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:40 PM ^
Hunter 3-3 with 4 boards early.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:40 PM ^
Zona apparently just good. Up 7 on the Illini mid 2nd on the road.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:43 PM ^
Uhh, they were a little handsy there with Dickenson. That could have been called a foul.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:46 PM ^
Seemed like the old Rick Mahorn pull the chair out trick.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:50 PM ^
Yeah... with a lot of reaching and grabbing.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:44 PM ^
Frankie!
December 11th, 2021 at 6:45 PM ^
Frankie!!!
Or is it "Frank"... Carlito's Way.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:46 PM ^
Glad to see Frankie getting early pt
December 11th, 2021 at 6:48 PM ^
i don't have the stats to back this up but HD seemed to be a better rim protector last year when teammates were beaten off the dribble. it seems more opponents are getting layups this year as HD doesn't appear to attack them as much.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:10 PM ^
His defense has been worse on all fronts. He’s getting beat in the low post by not good bigs too.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:53 PM ^
Diabetes won't be shooting any technicals for Michigan.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:55 PM ^
Wow, this Coach Ben Johnson has to be an early leader for Coach of the Year; I don't think Richard Pitino ever got one of his teams to play as good as this one is right now.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:00 PM ^
They have looked like a very well coached team this year. Quite limited talent-wise, but they play hard, team-first basketball.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:55 PM ^
Tied?
Not sure if this is my favorite situation so far.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:56 PM ^
Frankie Collins has definite Derrick Walton School of Point Guard Rebounding potential.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:57 PM ^
rebounding has been the best part of jones' game this year
December 11th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
time to get HD back in there, pound it down low, and make a run before half.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
Diabate gets to the line. Get to 70% on FT's.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
Spent the commercial break searching everywhere for our missing offense...
December 11th, 2021 at 7:07 PM ^
Ahh, shooting 50% thus far. But, just 1-6 from behind the arc.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:58 PM ^
Observations so far:
We had a 13-7 lead and the Jones commits a stupid foul on an and one, lead never reaches 6 again.
Houstan doing absolutely nothing early, again
John's and Williams with less than desirable play too.
Let's hope those guys play better cause we need them, all 4 of them.
I really wish Juwan would play Kobe earlier.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:01 PM ^
They haven't schemed Houstan any open 3's like last game. They might need to get him involved early in order to keep him involved all game.
December 11th, 2021 at 6:59 PM ^
Looking at the stat sheet, the Gophers don't have any turnovers. But, they only have one more foul to give and we're at the charity stripe the rest of the half. We have 4 turnovers (not terrible), but have only committed 2 fouls.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:01 PM ^
Crisler is awful quiet tonight
December 11th, 2021 at 7:03 PM ^
There have been a few ugly shots by both teams in this game. Diabate is a helluva rim protector, though. Wow!
December 11th, 2021 at 7:04 PM ^
MOOOOUUUUSSA!!!!
December 11th, 2021 at 7:05 PM ^
houstan, wtf? if ya foul him don't let him get the damn shot off. pathetic.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:05 PM ^
We're not handling success very well, yet, this game. Good play on one end, immediate bad play on the other.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:05 PM ^
Minnesota's best play tonight is getting fouled on jump shots.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:06 PM ^
So is that a foul when the offensive player leans in to purposely draw contact. Seems like it should be an offensive foul. Defender jumped straight up.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:06 PM ^
50/50 balls and calls going Gopher way this half.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:06 PM ^
It looks like Brooks has regressed on defense, but only because we no long have Franz to guard the best perimeter player on every team we play. Still, we can’t get letting every guard we play post 20+
December 11th, 2021 at 7:22 PM ^
Wagner and Livers defense can't be matched by this year's team.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:08 PM ^
Free throws, defense, rebounding and turnovers. Need better effort on all 4.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:09 PM ^
houstan nice take
December 11th, 2021 at 7:10 PM ^
Jones gets blown by multiple times every game.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:11 PM ^
awful D on jones again
December 11th, 2021 at 7:11 PM ^
Jones on ball defense is awful
December 11th, 2021 at 7:11 PM ^
HD with a nice put-back
December 11th, 2021 at 7:11 PM ^
another jones blow-by. ugh
December 11th, 2021 at 7:12 PM ^
I think Houstan is ready to be the solid 3rd scoring option on offense. Dickinson, Brooks, Houstan - draw the plays up for them.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:12 PM ^
Caleb finally on the board.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:13 PM ^
These Gophers are a pesky bunch.
December 11th, 2021 at 7:16 PM ^
Yeah, they're playing a good half of basketball. Let's hope they don't get through the 2nd half without a turnover.
