That reverse pivot to the left hand scoop? *chef's kiss*

Minnesota doing Minnesota things at home vs Green Bay (coming off their 4 win season). 

Down 4 at half.

At Minnesota will be a good litmus test for this staff. Will we take care of business against a bad team on the road, or will we be subjected to the usual excuse-making about how it's so hard to win on the road in the Big Ten, with heaping praise for Minnesota's roster full of nobodies, and how it was only a matter of time before everything came together for them?

If the Pacers are going to have to suffer through this nightmare of a season being in a position to draft that kid would make it worth it.

What Curt Cignetti said applies here:

”They haven’t played this team.”

Gophers hit a shot from about 55 feet at the buzzer to defeat the fighting Doug Gottliebs.

After the buzzer.  Heading to OT

[LamarCheeks 23,084]

I take that back. Upon further review, shot was too late. 

Gophers and Gottliebs going to OT. 

[HinnyHoosier 6,691]

Minnesota misses 3 of 4 FTs in the last 10 seconds to keep it a one possession game.

Green Bay ties it up with a right hand, right foot layup, only for Minnesota to drain one at the buzzer from beyond half court....

But that's all it was: AT the buzzer, not before. Release was not in time.

 

On to OT for Minnesota to save face against the Fighting Gottliebs.

[LamarCheeks 23,084]

Gophers 72, Gottliebs 65, OT 

Green Bay coach can now go prepare for his Monday radio show.
