Basketball GAME THREAD: RHoops vs. Minnesota

[Caliknight]

I can’t recall someone shooting like this in a college game ever. These are contested shots this kid is hitting. It’s unreal. Looks like Steph Curry. Unlimited range.

 

[KingOfTheEast]

Brutal sequence there. 2 Wide Open misses followed by a good defense, 3 pointer from wayyy deep

 

[fluoxetine]

Eagerly awaiting the threads about how we just weren’t mentally tough enough to stop this ****ing guy from making every random thing he jacks up.

 

[RUPartisan]

Nobody takes the ball out of the hot hand better than Rutgers.

 

[ClassOf02]

I mean, whatever. Of course Minnesota turns into the Golden State Warriors against us. Every prayer goes in.

 

[Mr Magoo]

If they lose this game, they lost it in the first 5 minutes by not taking it seriously.

 

[RUTRINI]

Willis unreallllll

Playing inspired

 

[robjknight]

Mag doesn't know what to do out there. He is killing us on both sides

Get him out. We are playing 4 on 5

 

[FIJI'83]

Keep it up Geo

 

[Scangg]

Mag doesn't know what to do out there. He is killing us on both sides

Lol what?

 

[RUfromNJ]

Turning into a tip your cap game

 

[brad1218]

Gotta hand it to that kid... he's come up big all game

He cannot be allowed to shoot. I don't understand what we are doing. Double team him. You have to make someone else beat you.

 

[RUTrack94]

Willis previous 5 games … 14, 9, 18, 15, 11

 

[fluoxetine]

I hope it's not like the DePaul game when the Blue Demons went wild from 3 in the final 4 minutes

In this game it’s the final 40 minutes

 

[FrankZ]

Went away from the hot-hand Geo. They didn’t go away from Willis

 

[RedTeam1994]

PATHETIC!!!!

It’s not”pathetic”

Minnesota is taking and making REALLY hard shots. Time after time.

Sure the RU defense could be better but the RU d is far from “pathetic”

I’ve simply never seen a team make so many chucks like this

 

[shields]

Kid has been amazing.

 

[mikemarc1]

If they lose this game, they lost it in the first 5 minutes by not taking it seriously.

Or in those lost two offensive possessions where Harper missed a wide open 3 then heaved a 3

 

[bac2therac]

Geo playing just as well.

You cant let one guy singlehandedly beat you

Rutgers isnt answering on offense

Bad job having Mag in instead of Mulchay

 

[G- RUnit]

We are in his face. Ron has to hit those two wide open threes. And Cliff just has no offense.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Turning into a tip your cap game

It’s not though…because you shouldn’t be in this position for it to matter.

 

[RUTRINI]

If they lose this game, they lost it in the first 5 minutes by not taking it seriously.

Crazy comment..

 

[Mbash93]

Lol what?

He just runs around on offense like a chicken with his head cut off.

He literally early just stood there to set a screen on air. McConnell had the rebound and he tipped it to Minnesota. 0 court awareness

Douby

 

[RUfan1027]

Willis shooting better than anyone I've seen in college

 

[FIJI'83]

This loss would be a dagger on this season. RHJ must stand up and push the team over top.

First 5 minutes

 

[Caliknight]

Keep PM in.

 

[BOCA93]

This is just stupid now. Hats off to Willis. Kid is in a can’t miss zone

 

[Scangg]

Went away from the hot-hand Geo. They didn’t go away from Willis

This

 

[BillyC80]

We can still win, but you have to tip your cap to Willis and the Gophers.

 

[RUSCFORMERLYRULOU]

You can’t do anything about Minn today. They are being defended. But you can live with a loss today IF we had won against Lafayette AND either DePaul or UMASS.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Crazy comment..

You’re right. They came out very prepared

 

[#1 RUFan]

Damn, I wish we had a Willis. Can't blame the defense, he's literally had a hand un his face all game. This is on the offense. Pike needs to recruit more pure shooters. Defense can be taught. Minny and Willis are playing probably their best game in a long time. Shouldn't be this easy.

 

[Luvscarletknights]

Minnesota is unconscious. Please score here.

 

[Scangg]

Geo is on fire. Keep going to him. He needs to look for his shot too. Let it fly when you're hot

 

[RUPartisan]

Why are we not riding Baker while he is hot?

 

[bac2therac]

No rebounding

 

[RU Mike73]

Now we go ice cold

 

[FrankZ]

And Caleb takes the 3 🤦‍♂️
