[Crimson and Cream 5,968]

A lot of complaining for us being up 18

Yes, should be up 50!

[AZ Hoosier 10,937]

Lol... Man if we played good in the half court we would be up 30 instead of 18. Fire Crean right this second...

 

That's not the point. Not every team will let IU run... and they need to be able to play half court set... and, simply put, they can't. At least not very well or with any consistency.

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut occasionally.

What we are seeing doesn't translate to tourney success.  Hard to get excited about that. 

[IU Hoosier41 14,490]

Y'all crack me up! Enjoy the game. It's been a fun one to watch!

[AZ Hoosier 10,937]

Honest question. Is it really that miserable to watch every game?

 

You took my post out of context... it was in response to "fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me... what's three?".

 

Try to keep up.

I think you missed his point. We could be up 50 and people would still constantly complain.

People can't talk about the good and not so good?  Are we supposed to just be cheerleaders?

We're all coaches. Undefeated of course.  :laugh:

[TheWatShot 15,491]

Troy is still trying to go 100 mph when he should be going about 70.

wow

If they aren't playing well, yes, some of us would. Your opponent is NOT the other team as much as it is the game itself... it's true that a sloppy win is a win, but it's also sloppy... and if you play sloppy, you can/will get beat at some point.

Not the point, it's the constant complaining and never stopping.

I understand, but the complaining is constant without recognizing the good. Big difference.

Yeah but if what people are criticizing never changes, isn't it fair to keep saying it.  It would be different if once the team adopted a new style all the people who advocated for it to be made changed their story.

That wasn't needed...

[BlueDevil 9,556]

DEEEEEECENT

And inability to note the good things. We just held a fast-paced high-scoring offense to 32 in the half. That's not terrible defense at all.

[JaybobHoosier 13,187]

Very good first half. I expected that the team would let Creighton go on a run, and they didn't. Have to keep it up.

Loved the feeding of Bryant! Keep it up!

Try to keep up huh? I think if all I could find in something was the ability to constantly bitch and moan I would give it up. If there is no positive in any aspect of doing an activity what is the point in going through it? Or maybe you just enjoy bitching and moaning? Maybe some people don't enjoy coming to a game thread where people come to just bitch and moan after the half we had. Try to keep up with that.
