Golfman25 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 So it looks like the rotation got a bit smaller tonight. Have to look at the numbers but. Green out most of second half. Race not much, a little bit of hunter, Davis not much. Damize nothing. 8bucks and pumpfake 2 Quote

cthomas Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Smith, Durham, and TJD saved this game. Brunk made some plays as although this was not his best game. Gotta play with purpose for the complete game. Not going to win on talent alone. Quote

colonel06 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Archie needs to channel his inner Norman Dale once he gets into that locker room ... "Basketball is a voluntary activity. Any of you feel you don't want to be on this team, feel free to leave right now." Big delta there between Gene Hackman looking u in the eye and saying that vs. Archie .....Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
NOLA Hoosier Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 I mean, UK JUST found a lineup that worked last game. Ours should be the one in the last few minutes. Green needs to ride the pine unless things get dire. He can sit at the end with Deron. Quote

He did late with Green but perhaps Archie’s has so few options but we play enough guys a night where he can teach a guys a lesson for poor play. Confusing for me to be honest Quote
Loaded Chicken Sandwich Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 I see no positives to take away. And if I were Archie, I would tell the players that. Time for a reality check. You suck. I suck. We need to get better. And if you don’t want to commit, leave. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Whoozhers and 8bucks 2 Quote

I have to admit that I'm disappointed in Hunter so far. I expected he'd be starting to show some flashes by now, but he's really been terrible shooting the ball (bankshot 3-pointer included). Quote

Josh Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 I was going to say that it was frustrating that we barely beat the worst team in the Big Ten at home, but then it occurred to me that we are probably the worst team in the big ten after that game.

coonhounds Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Ok so that was absolutely rough no doubt about that. I can't imagine playing that poorly and winning but they did. This season record wise is still very salvageable hopefully put this one behind them and play better Saturday. Actually I am glad we didn't hit everything and win by 30 tonight and play like that and lose by 45 Saturday Sent from my SM-G960U using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
HoosierAloha Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Yep. Those guys really haven't contributed much of anything and it's not looking like they will. I have to admit that I'm disappointed in Hunter so far. I expected he'd be starting to show some flashes by now, but he's really been terrible shooting the ball (bankshot 3-pointer included).Agreed, it must be a challenge just to get back to where he is and I’m not faulting him for not playing or scoring more. For him, and IU, I hope he gets things going. He has talent but almost a full year off has him a bit off. Hopefully, it’s something small and it clicks soon but he can be one heck of a player.

reconmkd Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 I’m not entirely sure everyone on this team gives a damn. One constant for the last 3 years to me has been effort/attitude, or lack there of. Another constant, DG, JS. How many games have we watched where either one of them does something either on the bench or pouted like a child. I don’t know what was said between JS and CAM in that blow by, but I was ready for JS to sit the rest of the game. But something clicked on him and his demeanor and body language changed and he played better at the end. DG on the other hand has had crap body language for several games now. Idk if it’s because he so damn streaky and has stunk for those games but he definitely doesn’t seem to be invested at all. Glad he rode the pine! It is incredibly sad that someone has had the carpet rolled out in front of them and to act like an a$$ more times than not. The attitude was rubbing off on the younger players again tonight, thank you Al for sparking a fire, but please start that fire at the opening tip from now on. Please no start for DG Saturday! I honestly think he plays better off the bench and off the ball! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners 8bucks, Scout and hoosierdogg 3 Quote
bleedhoosier Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 This team is soft outside TJD, Brunk and Al (Franklin loading). Green, as usual, is just bad at team ball. Dead ball every time it hits his hands during reversal. Clearly better with Brunk and TJD but rarely used it until late. So glad he sat. He should get 10 mins/game from here out. I'm over him. Brunk plays his balls off. If TJD is here next year, he's going to be damn near unstoppable. And I wish someone would slap Justin Smith's grandmother. Somebody flip his switch. Boos raining down... IU is just exhausting as a program. Quote
