    [quote name="JSHoosier" post="29535" timestamp="1389626919"]In that Michigan State game our point guard had twice as many turnovers as assists. The turnovers were split nearly evenly between halves, the careless unforced turnovers were reduced but it's still a sample size of one game and it's hard to draw conclusions from that. Penn State is just a bad team, so we should've had less turnovers against them. Cutting down the careless turnovers is a good sign, but I'm not going to try and draw conclusions from a sample size of only 2 games one of which was against a bad team. If we have around 12 or 13 turnovers against Wisconsin, I'll say we're showing progress. That'd be 3 games, 2 of which were against good teams. We moved the ball better and tried less one on one, but it was still against a bad team. Doing that against bad teams has never been really been the issue. Every year we've had a problem of resorting to that against good teams, and struggling to score because of it. Getting what we expected? In what sense? I still expected a tourney team and right now that's not what we are. I've already explained why I'm hesitant to say we're showing progress. I'm one of them that says last year's team underachieved. I care more about the NCAA tourney than a B1G title, and last year's team was capable of more than a Sweet 16. Achieving less than you're capable of is the very definition of underachieving.[/quote] Have to agree with you JS last years team underachieved big time. Preseason number one shouldn't get bounced in the sweet 16. I know it was a terrible matchup but IU didn't even look prepared. They even struggled against Temple the game before. I don't know it can't be an underachieving year. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

  3. [quote name="mdn82" post="29462" timestamp="1389565028"]See I disagree with this whole rumor for one simple fact about Crean's coaching. Crean wouldn't draw up puff, puff, pass. He would draw up puff, puff, f***ing turnover. Edit: This was mean and a low blow ^^^^[/quote] Puff puff turnover was prolly right. Prolly got hungry and went to Arby's.

    [quote name="KingPG21" post="28975" timestamp="1389463299"]Kind of confused as to why Evan started? If he was going to change the starting lineup why not play Stan? Oh well, don't want to say how I feel about this first half, would use too colorful of language. I guess at least we are only down by 4?[/quote] If Stan hasn't played his way into the starting lineup after this game then Crean has some issues. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Not a crean fan lost respect for him when he went off on Meyer last year but no not time to fire him that's ridiculous. Young team gaining experience not having the year everyone wanted them to have. They are getting better. Crean needs to get better too. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Turnovers

    I don't know if I really buy this we are young and that's why we are committing too many turnovers. Yogi is only a sophomore sure but started every game last season on a team with super expectations. Will is a senior and both had plenty of their own turnovers today.
