I'm so torn.  Colts are about to start a much more important game than the Hoosiers are playing right now.  But this is a great game.  Dammit.

iPad? Laptop? I’m going to subject myself to potentially the least important Bears game of my lifetime through my iPad. I still don’t know why.

I also noticed that Trey's 3 point form has been completely reformed from that of last year. He missed it, but I didn't notice the ball going over his shoulder near his head on his attempt.

After a slow start...the threes and some rebounds...did I see Minny stop hitting everything?

 

Probably because they were hitting a lot of contested shots and they got worn down because they don’t have a bench and we do!

They are shooting lights out. Can't keep that up for the whole game. Tends to even out.

We're in good shape

Bozich pulling zero punches. Damn.

You need to chat with USPS and get yourself a 'set-up'.

I'm currently sitting in a rolling desk chair in the hallway between two TVs about 30 feet apart.  I told the family to get out of the house for an hour.  Set-up?

[LamarCheeks 22,197]

TJD has four points and we're up by 10? In a B1G game? 

Did that really happen, or are my eyes deceiving me?

I'll take us home here.  Go ahead and watch the Colts.

I love blaming that former coach for everything, but I'm tired of the "confidence" excuse.

Honestly, as much as I hated our offense when Miller was here, putting Phin's loss of confidence on Miller seems to be a stretch.  It's not like Miller buried him on the bench or told him not to shoot.

[Stuhoo 89,988]

An unguarded Rob Phinisee is exactly this player.

It helps juuuuust a little that Eric Curry has no chance singled up.

He didn’t bury him at all, but did he kinda discourage free shooting

I get both of these, but Bozich isn’t one to blast the program very often (at least not that I remember), even former personnel. I kind of wonder if there’s something to this that he knows. I’ve not always been his biggest fan, but he’s been around long enough that I’d be interested to get him off the record and willing to share sometime. 

[kreigh8 2,111]

Race's form looks ok, but he can't buy a 3pt shot

[LamarCheeks 22,197]

X thought too much about that one. Shoulda just fired it when he caught it.

Personally I think it's fair. CAM did everything he could to diminish the outside game, he was all over everyone for taking outside shots that were clearly open, it had to be only when CAM was good with it. That's why our outside shooting went to the very bottom of the conference. CAM did give Rob props, called him one of the top 3 outside shooters on the team (with Hunter and Al), but what CAM did in game was to throw the leash on everyone from the arc, and that messes with confidence, Rob was far from the only one.

Big exchange on the wide open miss by Minny and 3 by Stewart

That push on Race by the Minny player after the foul is exactly what Stewart got T'd up for against Notre Dame.

And much less necessary.
