Basketball Bailey struggles, Rutgers Basketball falls to Michigan 66-63

[biazza38]

How is it on pike? Our top 3 pick couldn’t hit anything…

And when he’s off we have no chance,

Exactly, you can’t expect Ace to win every game. We cut it 46-44 and we couldn’t get a stop to save our life. If we had any defensive presence we would have actually gotten the stops we needed

 

[DHajekRC84]

It’s not Pikes fault we are shooting 31%

Pikes not shooting the 3s but running an offense that doesn't move, cuts for easier baskets, and relies on and continues to heave threes IS his fault .

 

[Caliknight]

They really just cut to gymnastics before game end?

 

[biazza38]

Ok sure. Did you congratulate Pike in the last game?

No, I didn’t. Because we’re 4-7 in conference play. What’s to congratulate him about

 

[robjknight]

Wow lose by 3 with a horrible shooting performance. So every bad paly was meaningful!

 

[RAC93]

Sadly, Ace pressed. He couldn’t hit the broadside of a barn.

You could have put Ace in a boat on the Raritan today and if he fell out of the boat he would have missed water, he’s the #1 reason for this loss, Davis and Acuff showed out again today

 

[PiscatawayMike]

...and RU covers the spread a second straight Saturday on a last-second three at the buzzer

 

[motorb54]

Sad.
With Ogbole and Dylan Harper we win easily.

 

[DHajekRC84]

They scored 66. It clearly wasn't the defense today.

 

[leftoright]

RU beats the spread.

 

[Rokodesh]

It was on til the end for me...

 

[King of S]

Hit two 3’s in last 10 seconds. Where was that all game?

 

[FrankZ]

Sigh. What a dagger of a season destined to be ‘magical’.

 

[biazza38]

Incredible back door cover

 

[Randal7]

Only prayer we’ve got is making the btn tournaments and winning it

 

[zappaa]

It seems Ace shoots better on the road

 

[BillyC80]

Exactly, you can’t expect Ace to win every game. We cut it 46-44 and we couldn’t get a stop to save our life. If we had any defensive presence we would have actually gotten the stops we needed

True, although we did get a stop there and Ace missed a wide open three that would have given us the lead.

 

[leftoright]

When is Harper back?

 

[RexMantlepiece]

Sad.
With Ogbole and Dylan Harper we win easily.

Yes and a few more as well. But damn you Pike for not coaching how to avoid a knee and ankle injury!

 

[DHajekRC84]

I gave up a 67 degree beach bar day today on day 1 of my trek to south Carolina.. dammit!

He would not have “won the game”. You’re a top 3 pick - you shouldn’t go 3 for 18. And this isn’t just sn off game - he’s had games like this all year.

 

[biazza38]

They scored 66. It clearly wasn't the defense today.

Overall defense, maybe not. But zero timely defensive stops. It’s easy to see that 66 and say defense wasn’t the problem. Shooting clearly sucked. But my point is, we got zero timeline stops when we needed them. It was 46-44, and Michigan scored with ease

 

[RAC93]

Not very impressed with Michigan. We just suck..only Davis came to play

Agreed, Michigan should have beaten us by 20

 

[29PAS]

Who was Harper sitting next to in the bench? Guy in warmups with glasses.

 

[Rokodesh]

Sigh... game was there for the taking. Couldn't make enough shots.

 

[DHajekRC84]

Sigh. What a dagger of a season destined to be ‘magical’.

It's magical all right. The disappearing act .

 

[biazza38]

We provide zero resistance on the interior for teams. No clue why it took Michigan 15 minutes into the second to figure that out. But once they did, it was too easy for them

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

3 pt loss without Dylan and Ace with a total dud

 

[RU MAN]

Sad.
With Ogbole and Dylan Harper we win easily.

I don’t know about easily but I agree, we win.

 

[DHajekRC84]

Big O..

[jtung230]

We need to make the B1G tourney. Then we need to win the B1G tourney.

 

[RU MAN]

That’s what happens when you don’t have sizeat the 5.

EO

Totally didn’t recognize him with the glasses. Thanks.

Wrong

I guess you didn’t watch the game….

We had stops and steals on many occasions. Couldn’t convert
