Game Thread: Indiana Hoosiers vs. Minnesota Golden Gophers

Oh my god that was unbelievable. 

[Hovadipo 56,266]

I’ve never seen anything like that. They should count that on principle.

I'll take that half considering our talent. Congrats to Archie on the ball screen change!

Only Green would sink that. Lol

Have I mentioned how much I hate Devonte?

You all know that we will come out in the second half with the original starting five.

[theriverpilot 5,607]

Welp, good job not letting the 10 point lead get larger and cutting it to 3.

Maybe that will wake "good Devonte" up.

I do too. Archie has killed my optimism. He doesn’t do anything. It’s like he doesn’t know the game of basketball

[RaceToTheTop 25,847]

Somebody needs to let Rob know he's allowed to shoot the ball.

[JerryYeagley23 3,656]

Now please. For the love of all that is holy.

Start the five that are playing well. Not the five that started the game!

It’s not hard to see our starting five is not our best unit and will let this 3-point game get to 7-9 within four minutes if Archie rolls them out there again as usual.

I like Brunk.  He plays hard and there are matchups that work.  It hasn't happened lately.  

And I'm okay coming back without Brunk or Davis.  TJD doesn't have any fouls and has played fine defensively when he's been on Oturu.

Prepare yourself. Archie isn’t changing now

Exactly, if he starts brunk in the 2nd half, I’m gonna lose my mind.

unfortunately I think that is the kind of shot that can really wake up the bad Devonte like a bad energy drink.  it's a shame that 3 did not count, because that is probably the last circus shot Green makes in this game, but not the last circus shot he takes in this game by a long shot.  I fear the degree of difficulty may go through the roof of the barn after that one

Did you see Steven Adams from a couple weeks ago? First 3 he hit in his career.

I thought Jerome played with some energy. I’d like to see him on the floor more in the 2nd half

I’m a Brunk fan. Like what he brings to the game. But he’s a possession killer when he gets it in the post because he doesn’t keep his head up for kick-out options. Let him be your first big body off the bench after Oturo has run up and down the floor for a few minutes. JB doesn’t seem big enough or athletic enough to guard Oturo to me.

My MAIN focus if I’m Archie is putting enough offense on the floor to start the half to make sure the game stays close. You can not afford to let this game slip into the 7-12 point deficit range.

Personally, I’d like to see TJD, Race, Hunter, Green and Phinisee. Short leash on DG with Al ready.
