I'm Really Happy Right Now But Can't Quite Figure It Out

I was worried about that. I'll keep searching.


Well, if you find someone who can figure it out for you my advice is to ignore them. This team is unpredictable and can not be figured out. Anyone who claims they can do it needs serious help. Take it one game at a time and enjoy nights like tonight.

No, that's not it.

The announcers on BTN explained the poor performance vs Ohio State on the fact that the Williams injury occured in practice the day before the game and the team didn't have enough time to adjust to life without Mike, the senior leader of the team. Now, they've had a few days to adjust and figure out how to play without him

I'm gonna go with Ball Movement...no black holes tonight, no one holding it too long....keep it moving and get good shots.


the ball movement was excellent tonight but some of that is Iowa, the big takeaway is that the reduction in competition is going to help RU and its offense, we are not facing Purdue and OSU and MSU...We had played 5 of our 6 games vs tourney teams, life gets a little easier and you can actually start working on improving when you get away from the top teams in the league

With all of the zone they played we got much better looks and uncontested shots from three.

IMO,. there is no denying that the best games by Rutgers this year, including, MSU (twice), Seton Hall, Wisconsin, Iowa....the one constant is good ball movement. That is the key. The bad losses to Stony and Hartford.....horrible ball movement. Ball movement just gets you better looks and that is so important when you don't have great shooters right now.
 
ball movement and high assist to fg numbers happen against zone. We didn't see as much zone as I expected becuase we busted it.
 
we lose to Michigan State our kenpom ranking goes up to 119
we get blown out bu OSU when we fall to 135
we beat iowa and our ranking goes to 119

holding serve, not in the GW sense
