Basketball LIVE GAME THREAD: Rutgers vs. Indiana

[DennisHajekRC84]

I get that you want to drive to the hoop, but it's resulting in turnovers. Fix this Pike

We are again taking Myles out if the game. But we don't need our bigs taking 8 ft hook shots either.

 

[FrankZ]

PM!

 

[koleszar]

There ya go Paul do that more.

And don't forget the ball next time.

 

[RUsince52]

Great shot -PM.

 

[Joey Bags]

Mulcahy BALLIN

 

[FrankZ]

Hated that TO. Geez

 

[Caliknight]

Pike is a set play master out of the time out

 

[RutHut]

Baker!!!!

 

[tfio]

GEOOOO

 

[RU Mike73]

Where is our shot clock awareness?

 

[RUsince52]

Hustle foul on Young - OK.

 

[bac2therac]

Give an assist to RAC on those last 2 defensive stops

 

[BillyC80]

Foul to give — use it here!

 

[czxqa]

Damn these announcers have a man crush on IU

Why did we get Indiana'a home announcers for our home game? Where the hell is Bob Wenzel?

 

[RUsince52]

When we play at a slightly faster pace, we're better. The more we slow down, the more mistakes.

 

[koleszar]

Phew, played good down the stretch. Got real nervous for a short time there.

 

[PatrickRU92]

all right. we'll take it.

 

[bac2therac]

Great last few minutes..... 10-2 run...better D leading to easier points...

Really need to do better with our sets and movement.

Mathis needs to sit

 

[RUsince52]

Nice little run to finish off the half because of our defense. Save some for part 2.

 

[jerzeyguy]

Where is montez. He should've played some of them mulcahy minutes

 

[RUby RED]

Where is montez. He should've played some of them mulcahy minutes

Driving into trees and turning it over

 

[bac2therac]

We are such a streaky team on offense but its clear everything we do comes from playing tough D

Indiana really mouth punched us but we fought back

 

[shields]

Need Caleb to get going.

 

[tfio]

Once again, we are simply the better team. Play like it this 2nd half and let's get this W

 

[Joey Bags]

Where is montez. He should've played some of them mulcahy minutes

Tez is even more out of control than paul is tbh

 

[FrankZ]

Please hold on to this lead and somehow win

 

[bac2therac]

Driving into trees and turning it over

On the bench where he should stay until Pike can trust him

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Its seems kinda simple. Our guards seem longer and faster and very disruptive. Our scoring is coming on transition and movement. Not 1 on 3 or holding it.
No foul trouble. Stay on them.

 

[BillyC80]

Looks like two top 30-ish teams slugging it out.

Good start and finish to the half. RU up 31-24.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Pike im not sure what your obsession is with mulcahy but CHAIN HIM to the bench in the 2nd half. Every minute he plays is a minute less montez and jacob play. Dont be dumb, hes not ready and hes a complete liability

 

[bethlehemfan]

Need to get back on d. All their points are secondary break

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Why did we get Indiana'a home announcers for our home game? Where the hell is Bob Wenzel?

Ha..even the B1G break at half was about what Indiana needs to do...wow.

 

[RUsince52]

Good to see Indy with a lot of unforced throwaways. We just have to convert on some of those trips.

 

[PatrickRU92]

not ready to sit Tez just yet. He makes some bonehead plays yes but he also has a knack for making some big ones in crunch time

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Also wont pop up in the box but geo diving for loose balls and then leading to buckets is worth more than just points

 

[bac2therac]

Need to get Myles more involved in offense

 

[bac2therac]

Also wont pop up in the box but geo diving for loose balls and then leading to buckets is worth more than just points

Yes...thats its role today..love it

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

He's just having a bad game. Lets not go overboard. Would he sit more tonight? Yea. But there's plenty of that by others too. Play the hot hands. That's all.

He knocked down a huge 3 late and is our best connection to getting Myles going

 

[BillyC80]

Mulcahy will be fine and he contributes. Let’s remember Harper had 4 turnovers in the first half against IL.
