Basketball LIVE GAME THREAD: Rutgers vs. Northwestern

[dconifer]

NW starting two guard Spencer was the POY in men’s lacrosse last season. Pretty special athlete.

Wow, cool...

 

[BOCA93]

Sleepwalking to start the game. Clearly NW can shoot. Need to be more active on both ends of the court. Need some
Easy baskets and it starts with D and the transition game

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

hoping Geo and Young come in and we push it.. none of this weave offense for awhile

 

[Caliknight]

Nw has started strong in most games this year

The best way to beat them is dont let them get comfortable early

They have won 1 game in the conference. If they start strong often how is not letting the start strong the best way to beat them?

 

[RU Mike73]

It is never easy.

 

[BillyC80]

15 points in 5 minutes is not sustainable by NW. They will come back to earth shortly.

Look for RU to go into lockdown mode.

 

[bac2therac]

They arent missing but Ru is playing shit defense...open 3s and no rebounding

 

[Scarlet Blind]

NW has little depth, they will wear down

 

[FrankZ]

FTs won’t help this cause

 

[koleszar]

Mulcahy with the stupid pass 5 secs. in.

 

[rufancoe00]

D has not shown up today along with the O

 

[bac2therac]

Knew that charge was coming from Mathis

We are laying a stinking turd

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

damnit it PM... quit cheating on looks

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Not having a half court offense should not be accepted by our fans. Its pathetic and someone needs to hold pikes feet to the fire on this. Im sorry guys but the gods honest truth is were a poorly coached, well motivated team

 

[RUSCFORMERLYRULOU]

LOL. NCAA my ass. Just not there yet folks l

 

[Mr Magoo]

WTH. Mathis. Spins Into the defense

 

[BOCA93]

Really bad spacing on that fast break

 

[RUsince52]

Bad decision fast break.

 

[richthedentist]

Get Mulcahy out turnover and burnt on defense

 

[Mr Magoo]

This is a grammar school offense

 

[greenknight]

Man we look piss poor

 

[RUScrew85]

What the hell Rutgers?

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Geo with more lazy off ball D and everyone afraid to shoot lol

 

[Caliknight]

We look like we didn’t practice since Maryland

 

[bac2therac]

Embarrassing
Pikevis running a pathetic offense

Its on him

This is utter bullshit

Get housed at home by a 6-15 team

 

[rufancoe00]

what the hell has Pike been doing with the team this past 5 days.. this is the worst they have looked all season.

 

[koleszar]

7 points in 8:30 you have to be sh*tting me.

 

[rufeelinit]

WTF is Pike waiting for to call a TO and read these guys riot act? We look like garbage on both ends.

 

[PatrickRU92]

[RUby RED]

Energy has not been good the last 3 games. Concerning

 

[BillyC80]

Five days rest too much. We haven’t warmed up yet.

Agree we run no offense and we passed up 5 open shots the last time down

 

[Rutgers25]

How many wide open 3s do we pass up. Playing scared on offense.

 

[BigEastPhil]

We had no eye of the tiger in warmups. Not during the game so far. Nor do the fans. We better get it together and soon

 

[cyrock3]

This is a bad egg.
