Ya hate to see it
February 28th, 2021 at 4:11 PM ^
Maryland made life miserable for Aaron Henry and Josh Lanford so MSU was fooked.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:13 PM ^
But the fine folks over at RCMB said Henry was unguardable. Is it possible they were wrong?
February 28th, 2021 at 4:51 PM ^
Perhaps they meant indefensible. It seems to mean the same. And to be fair, a big word like either of them would probably get an A in EL.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:15 PM ^
Trouble posting a gif?
February 28th, 2021 at 4:16 PM ^
yeah on mobile only tho
February 28th, 2021 at 4:17 PM ^
I like the save with the Charles Matthews gif - great choice!
February 28th, 2021 at 5:58 PM ^
Mattingly just split his pants.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:13 PM ^
lol FYS
February 28th, 2021 at 4:14 PM ^
It's pretty amazing they've had 5 star Josh Langford for half a decade now and still haven't figured out that any game where he takes 13 shots is pretty much an automatic loss
February 28th, 2021 at 4:44 PM ^
Haha exactly!
February 28th, 2021 at 5:29 PM ^
What if he takes 14 shots?
February 28th, 2021 at 5:59 PM ^
Amazing... until you remember his coach is Tom Izzo.
I've come to realize that Izzo's lone good attribute as coach is he gets his guys to try harderrrrrrrrr!
February 28th, 2021 at 6:36 PM ^
I feel bad for him in that he's been hurt so many times that a lot of his physical gifts have sort of fizzled out and he's basically a replacement-level player right now.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:14 PM ^
It strikes me that Maryland just wrote the book on how to disrupt MSU. I don't have a lot of concern about the ability to replicate that game plan again, and again, and (maybe) again.
February 28th, 2021 at 5:55 PM ^
The “Book” was obvious after the 0-11 run to start the game and yet their Hall of Fame coach couldn’t seem to find a counter for it.
Also, take away the transition scoring and MSU is going to have trouble making buckets.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:14 PM ^
IL laid an egg . . . . osu got one stolen from them . . . .Earth to sparty . . . . "Welcome back boys".
Go Hoosiers!!!
February 28th, 2021 at 4:14 PM ^
Grief counseling is available.
I have a dream, and it includes izzo getting run over by someone who just sank a three and is running down the sideline and Tiny Tom gets run over like wile e coyote in a bugs bunny cartoon
February 28th, 2021 at 4:18 PM ^
I can upvote this!
February 28th, 2021 at 4:19 PM ^
My dream is to see Juwan pat Tommy on the top of the head after the upcoming games and say nice try shorty.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:19 PM ^
Kinda like this?
February 28th, 2021 at 4:24 PM ^
So much like that. And in the dream, Chaundee Brown, obviously a weight room fanatic, plays the part of the locomotive.
could happen....
February 28th, 2021 at 5:32 PM ^
Hi Fi sound too
February 28th, 2021 at 4:22 PM ^
Meep, meep!!!!
February 28th, 2021 at 4:55 PM ^
I've long waited for a player to throw the ball to an opposing coach on the court, which should be good for a technical for interference on the coach.
However, Coach Howard does it, so my education continues: it's okay for some coaches to be on the court.
But it would be entertaining to watch Mr. Izzcuses get run over.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:56 PM ^
February 28th, 2021 at 5:18 PM ^
If I were an opposing player, I would pass the ball to him while he is standing on the court. What choice would the official have but to T him up? Would be particularly timely if he already had one technical.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:16 PM ^
Shutdown Henry and make sure that Hauser and Brown don't get looks from 3 and MSU is toast
February 28th, 2021 at 4:16 PM ^
So does this knock sparty off the bubble?
February 28th, 2021 at 5:25 PM ^
Not sure, but 2 straight losses to us WILL!
February 28th, 2021 at 10:04 PM ^
If Michigan can run MSU off the court, and they should, Izzo may have the most epic meltdown ever. Knocking him out of NCAA contention would be glorious.
Should knock them down to a 4 seed.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:18 PM ^
Wagner on Henry and Brooks on Langford. Henry will leave everything out there, so Wagner's gonna have a lot of work to do.
If I'm Henry, I'm playing my ass off trying to get out of East Lansing and into the NBA.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:21 PM ^
It isn’t about him. It’s about the location of his grandmother, if Izzo already has her in the basement he’ll be around for a while.
February 28th, 2021 at 8:56 PM ^
Granny is in trouble if Travis Walton is still down there
February 28th, 2021 at 4:25 PM ^
My seat of my pants impression is that Henry dominates smaller, less talented defensive players but is not efficient against anyone with a defensive pulse.
In terms of his draft viability, he might better come down with a cold before the games against UM as Franz and Chaundee are going to be hazardous to his health.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:52 PM ^
Wagner and Livers can take turns guarding Henry. When they need to rest, they can stand in the corner with Gabe Brown. Dickinson can hang out in the lane waiting for anyone who gets past the initial defender. Not having Tillman and his ability to shoot the 3 severely limits MSU’s offense.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:18 PM ^
If they had a coach like Juwan Howard, they'd have their players coached up to shoot better.
Look at Mike Smith's free throw shooting as an example.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:18 PM ^
If possible, I'd like to see Austin Davis have at least one big game against Sparty. Brandon Johns, too, while we're at it.
February 28th, 2021 at 5:24 PM ^
Brandon Johns has already won simply by not going to msu
February 28th, 2021 at 6:39 PM ^
I'm reminded of the story Brandon Johns told about Izzo screaming at him on the phone when he, Johns, informed the diminutive one that he was going to be a Michigan Wolverine. He should be sure to say hello when they meet.
February 28th, 2021 at 7:28 PM ^
Give izzo the phone call hand sign and "hang it up" when we leave breslin
February 28th, 2021 at 4:19 PM ^
I'm really hoping it's going to be a tough week for tiny tom ???
FYS!!!!!
February 28th, 2021 at 4:20 PM ^
Rocket Watts finished -24 for the game and he might be the best player Sparty has returning next year -- ouch!
February 28th, 2021 at 5:33 PM ^
Their best player next year is Watts or Foster Loyer shooting 29% from the field.
February 28th, 2021 at 10:45 PM ^
Watts isn't coming back. He's transferring.
Gabe Brown is a very good Just a Shooter.
Izzo seems to have had a few Amaker style 4* classes lately. Brown, Loyer, Bingham, Hall, Sissoko are all 4* players who seem like they'd be good pieces to add to a better core. (Like Winston/Tillman.) But instead it's a hodgepodge of Amaker talent, all okay as individuals but cannot be put together as a team.
February 28th, 2021 at 4:21 PM ^
LOL STAEE
