Big 10 Tourney 2nd round game thread: RU-Northwestern

[RUONTHERISE]

Down 15

 

[RUTrack94]

Alley oop slam ... You know it!

Bring it!!!!!

 

[bac2therac]

elaine looks worried

 

[mikebal9]

I love this team. 31-0 run, any other team folds up shop. Not us. We keep going.

 

[Night Man]

"big shot..." (air ball)

 

[bac2therac]

well we won the first 5 minutes by one point...we have them just where we want them

 

[fluoxetine]

Announcers omfg

 

[RUBand]

How does he pull up for a three and air ball it?

 

[shields]

need some shooters!

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Corey has been maddening these last two games.

 

[RC85]

Come on Corey

 

[koleszar]

"big shot..." (air ball)

SHHHHH your not allowed to say anything about Corey.

 

[mikemarc1]

Corey is brutal tonight

 

[RutgersRaRa]

How does he pull up for a three and air ball it?

That was painful.

 

[FastMJ]

Corey must be sick or just really run down physically

 

[shields]

Did anyone hear Freeman say damnit when the ball went out of bounds?

 

[RU Mike73]

"aloud" ???

 

[RUJMM78]

Sanders is the most talented player on the team and he needs major improvement in his outside shooting.Coaching can only take the team so far in improvement.Recruiting is the way to better results in the future.

 

[RUsince52]

"big shot..." (air ball)

AGAIN !!!!!!!!!

 

[RutgersRaRa]

We need to stop a run and chip away. A 5-0 run for us would be enormous.

And now the refs calling a weak foul on Thiam guarding the baseline.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

How is that a foul on Thiam? Push on NW.

 

[Scangg]

Cory doesn't look like he's playing with any passion or emotion

 

[koleszar]

Why is everyone allowed to disparage Corey, but AreYouNuts lambastes me.

 

[Night Man]

All that defense and you give up an and-1 with 4 left on the shot clock. Sad!

 

[fluoxetine]

SHHHHH your not aloud to say anything about Corey.

To be fair I think most would agree "Corey is bad tonight" is acceptable, vs. "Corey is an awful person/player/friend/etc" is unacceptable.

 

[SJScarlet]

Refs just screwed us with that call against Thiam

 

[bac2therac]

Corey must be sick or just really run down physically

two games in a row...he needs to be the leader, he is the point guard, his head has to be squared on straight, OSU was woeful enough and didnt care where it didnt matter yesterday but tonight you see against a very good team how it does

 

[RUTrack94]

RU looking fast and loose :) ... Hoping for another RUn to get within 10 and make things interesting ... bELieve!!!!

 

[shields]

Just hope he learns from this game, but other have not done anything. Mike has not taken a shot.

 

[RUMcMahon]

Announcers are awful

 

[koleszar]

To be fair I think most would agree "Corey is bad tonight" is acceptable, vs. "Corey is an awful person/player/friend/etc" is unacceptable.

All I said was they should have left corey home because he didn't come to play in any of the games thus far and I was called asinine.

 

[MV9000]

corey hard to watch rn. Nothing falling anyhwere.

 

[RU848789]

What is wrong with Sanders the last 2 games? Seriously? Just seems unfocused with airballs and TOs.

 

[RUsince52]

Can't catch a break either. Steal, TO, good D, but they get a chippy.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Dadika in. Williams back in. Only thing Mike has on the stat sheet in 16 minutes is 1 TO.

 

[RUTrack94]

Sticking around ... Dadika sighting.

 

[Night Man]

"aloud" ???

He's got a point, I'm not audibly saying anything as I watch this game alone

 

[Scangg]

We press and trap a man and run away from the trap

 

[RUTrack94]

Dadika = fresh legs

 

[RocktheRac]

Sanders packed it in with that sequence . Turnover and no defense.

 

[bac2therac]

All I said was they should have left corey home because he didn't come to play in any of the games thus far and I was called asinine.

you know what, you shouldnt have been called out. What you said was the truth, the effort the last two nights has been terrible. Some guy post a thread about Corey last night and got lambasted even though he spoke truth about Corey last night. Everyone wanted to just pretend it didnt happen last night and all would be better...but its not and getting pulled for Dadika says alot

 

[RUBand]

How is that a foul on Thiam? Push on NW.

Announcers said this also, pointed out the play was right in front of them
