RU vs Turtle People Game Thread

Hi I'm here for the Freeman bashing. Just watched him inexplicably shoot a three after hitting the side of the rim on a FT

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

He still rebounds and plays good defense, though. Wish Laurent was playing more...

WHAT!!!! You want Laurent on the floor!!!! The longer we can keep Eugene and Freeman off the floor, the better

 

[RUJMM78]

If Rutgers had a pulse on offense, they would be leading by double digits.Maryland sleep walking so far which helps Rutgers.26-25 Maryland.

 

[RU848789]

Let's not let them go on a big run here - they've been shooting poorly (good defense and just bad shooting combined) and will likely heat up at some point.

 

[bac2therac]

Sanders has to learn when not to force that...its a nagging part of his game

 

[RU848789]

Wow! Williams with a circus shot and the foul! Huge!

 

[bac2therac]

big shot by Williams there but ugh another free throw miss

 

[Scangg]

Wow! We need all the help we can get. Way to power through and try to get that up and not give up on the shot... and he misses the FT as I type this. How fitting

 

[Caliknight]

I know we are horrible shooters, but how can we be THIS bad from the stripe?

Kills us every single game.

 

[bac2therac]

allowed open 3s from the same spot on back to back possessions.....down 34-29...as good as RU played on both ends and as bad as Maryland played, Maryland still ends up ahead 5

RU cannot afford to let Maryland come out at half and build up to double digits..thats the RU bugaboo, start of 2nd halves

 

[RUJMM78]

34-29 half time.Maryland hits 2 straight 3 pointers from the corner.

 

[superfan01]

5-12 from the stripe. That's bad for a middle school team.

 

[bac2therac]

Purdue and Michigan State deadlocked at 39 at the half

 

[RUJMM78]

Once again abysmal foul shooting ,5-12 is the difference in the first half.

When you don't have a lot of help, you have to push it.

 

[TonyLieske]

That was a very Rutgers way to end the half.

 

[RU848789]

Horrible pass by CJ - not having the best game. All of a sudden, down 9. Those two treys by MD at the end of the first half were big.

 

[RUJMM78]

Maryland starts the second half with 2 baskets.Timeout Rutgers.Maryland 38-Rutgers 29

 

[bac2therac]

well exactly more of the same with poor 2nd half starts....38-29

 

[80RU]

That was a very Rutgers way to end the half.

And two easy baskets to begin the second half. So many things done right, and a couple of mistakes and they are down nine.

 

[RU Mike73]

Come on guys, we have got to stay close. Can't afford these 7-0 runs.

 

[RU848789]

Horrible pass by CJ - not having the best game. All of a sudden, down 9. Those two treys by MD at the end of the first half were big.

Maybe CJ heard me - great pass, then, nice follow dunk!

 

[bac2therac]

6-0 run after the Pike timeout...great recovery

 

[RU Mike73]

Nice run

 

[RU848789]

2 really bad passes by Sanders this half...

 

[RU848789]

I'd kill for a Trimble. So smooth.

 

[soundcrib]

We're playing like the balls exploding

 

[RUJMM78]

43-35 Maryland.Sanders no points in the second half.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Great D for 17 minutes. Bad the last 7.

 

[bac2therac]

critical juncture here at 43-35

 

[bac2therac]

Great D for 17 minutes. Bad the last 7.

Maryland woke up

 

[RU Mike73]

Got to eliminate TO. They all turn into run outs.

 

[Groz]

Can we please start to protect the basketball and not make stupid turnovers?

If we did that and made foul shots(easier said than done) we would be in great shape.

Best of Luck,
Groz

 

[bac2therac]

wheels are coming of the scarletwagon

 

[Jim_from_RU]

Still can't stop the 3.

 

[RUJMM78]

Maryland on a 3 point binge.,leads 54-38.

 

[bac2therac]

well lets hope they can keep it under 20

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Anyone see Louisville Pitt score? Makes this feel a lot better. Pitt should wish they still had Dixon

 

[bac2therac]

and RU taking a whole bunch of 3s I dont think thats going to work

 

[ScarletDave]

Sad to play such great D and then the other team hits 4 threes in the span of 6 minutes and you go from down 4 to down 16
