[quote name="Parakeet Jones" post="33592" timestamp="1391134069"]I said early in the year that we'd only be as good as we were defensively. IF we are starting to take on an identity as an active, aggressive team, then there might be some good times yet to go this year. [/quote]

I agree and I also feel that IU is on the upswing right now!

No Hulls improves our defense?

Don't think it is just him.  Watford wasn't the strongest either.  I will take Will over Watford at that end.  We have 4 legit lockdown defenders if they move their feet.  When they have done that this year, teams don't score against us at will.  Last year if we didn't shoot 50% we lost.  This year, we can't get to 50%.

12 turnovers is just too much....Our D has given us this double digit lead

[BlueDevil 8,827]

Close this game out! A win tonight puts us tied for FOURTH in the conference and only 1 game out of THIRD with a chance to gain even more ground Sunday. This is a critical week.

Sorry for posting this here, but for Pacers fans. The Pacers have cut their deficit to 4

 

Turning it over for the half.  down to 2 now

Can we play like this every game please?

Yeah, we make the tournament if we play complete games similar to that first half.

We're playing with some discipline tonight.

Feels like a minor miracle with how poorly they played in the first half

Crean was not happy with Noah go into the locker room. Couldn't make out what he was saying.

I hope you mean on defense?  Our offense has been a mess of TOs, driving into traffic with nowhere to go, jacking up contested 3s and thankfully having them bank in, etc..

[JSHoosier 20,579]

Looked like he landed on his tailbone.

 

Besides that, IU has already had 11 different guys in the game. I don't think we're that deep for that to be a good thing.

I don't really think any team is deep enough for that.  Of course most coaches don't go 11 deep anyway.

I noticed that too. I thought he said something about him demanding the ball, but I wouldn't swear to it.

Pretty impressive comeback by the Pacers, but it feels like one of those games where they just won't get over the hump.

Shoot he can demand all he wants he still won't get it

I thought it might have been about getting to that loose ball towards the end where Noah was getting yanked back by one arm.

The best team in the country (Zona) goes 7 deep at best.

Now, time to put the women and children to bed and finish these guys off.

Weakass foul call there.

Thanks for taking yourself out of that play and giving up a wide open 3, Troy!
