Basketball INSTANT RECAP: Rutgers Basketball blankets Rider 76-46

[Scangg]

He's still forcing the ball to Cliff so he can make NBA moves when #10 is on fire outside. He's best in the flow and doesn't look good with these back down moves when not working.
Fine by me. He can come back.

It can't be perimeter only. Cliff is always going to get his touches. He needs to be better with them and make better decisions. A couple of Cam's 3's came off Cliff post touches

 

[Luvscarletknights]

Cliff finally backed someone down. Yeah!

And again.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

I don’t even know what you're talking about... who is Pike making sure gets a shot?

Ok, he's not doing it per se but letting it happen. Anybody on this team make two in a row? Spenser 4 for 4 outside and we're setting him up? No.

 

[FrankZ]

Oh sweet move there Cliffy

 

[Joey Bags]

Cliff dongin’ on em

 

[zappaa]

Play D

 

[FrankZ]

Man amongst boys

This is why you keep going to Cliff

 

[AreYouNUTS]

It's a 40 minute game, we'll see. But again it's Rider.

And “again” we’re down 2 starters. A 15-20 point win should be acceptable, agree?

 

[Scangg]

We are always better when we attack the rim

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

This is why you keep going to Cliff

It's a totally different situation and just as I said how and where he gets the ball. He's not dribliing to back be anyone down.

 

[FrankZ]

12-21 FTs sux bad

 

[rufeelinit]

Still not seeing much of an effort to get Spencer open looks.

 

[bac2therac]

Great start and they have 4 fouls already

But free throw shooting cemains an adventure

 

[Scangg]

Mag is an elite presser. Spencer showcases his lightning quick hands again

 

[Nycrusupporter]

Hyatt seems to shoot a heavy ball, if he gets any rim, the ball just ricochets off hard.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

It can't be perimeter only. Cliff is always going to get his touches. He needs to be better with them and make better decisions. A couple of Cam's 3's came off Cliff post touches

Yes. Exactly. So pass it back out and play team ball and stop trying to force everything. It only losens up the D for you.

 

[fluoxetine]

Why does this always happen?

it doesn’t?

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

it doesn’t?

Would love to see stat on Rutgers last 5 mins on each half last 7 years. I'm good with facts.

 

[FrankZ]

7-0 fouls 👏

 

[bac2therac]

7 fouls in 3 minutes..wow

 

[FrankZ]

Thx for the FTs Mag

 

[Scangg]

Yes. Exactly. So pass it back out and play team ball and stop trying to force everything. It only losens up the D for you.

If Cliff forces it how is that a Pike issue?

 

[RuBird]

Pretty soon Rider will be suiting up the ball boy.

 

[FrankZ]

Too much Wolf

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

And “again” we’re down 2 starters. A 15-20 point win should be acceptable, agree?

That's why I said we need those starters back in a big way vs conference and Miami and SHU. Outside of Spencer our offense looked rag tag to me in 1st half. I worry that a B1G caliber guard could really shut him down, same with Miami and shu.

 

[FrankZ]

Nice response Wolf

 

[bac2therac]

Rutgers really should be up by more than 15 given how we are dominating

 

[Scangg]

Wolf is a monster. Moves the ball leading to an open Spencer 3 then beastly board and put back

Agree with this

We are really limited vs decent competition

 

[zappaa]

Yes

 

[BillyC80]

Loving Wolf as a power 4.

 

[FrankZ]

So fluid. Just looks like a player

 

[newell138]

Rutgers really should be up by more than 15 given how we are dominating

Agreed

 

[rufeelinit]

Richmond up 7 on Temple with 10 min remaining

 

[Mr Magoo]

Damn. All this talk about Mag or Hyatt starting. ..we may have Woolfolk starting before too long.

 

[RuBird]

Think we have something in Woolfolk. Like his hustle and ability to find the ball.

 

[fluoxetine]

Would love to see stat on Rutgers last 5 mins on each half last 7 years. I'm good with facts.

Not sure I have the stamina to grab this, but since you’re the one making the original claim you are welcome to go to the Torvik site and get this data. I’m good with facts.

 

[shields]

need Caleb. The young frosh looks good.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

If Cliff forces it how is that a Pike issue?

Isn't he the coach?
Did you see that? Wolfolk Comes in and the play is directly to him. No ball movement to find the right player in the right opportunity.
If you don't see it his then we play to different games. That's fine.
