[VO5 8,340]

Not sure if this was discussed in this thread and sorry if I missed it, but chatman absolutely traveled before he shot the ball

[FortWayneHoosier 6,680]

maybe im not getting this but how can you blame ted valentine for this loss? 

[HoosierAloha 30,102]

Not a big fan.

 

Dude had a really rough game.  Not sure what he was seeing to begin the second half.

Everybody put down the booze and back away from the ledge.

I'll back away, but NOBODY takes my booze

[colonel06 1,948]

Sadly, I agree. There's no way we would have shot as well as we did at home. We never do in Indy.

That has to change 20 years ? in a row is too much!

Not a big fan. Shouldnt there be term limits?[/quote]For some reason this doesnt bother me like some do. Other than we may have slipped a seed we could be better off healthy and rested for the real tourney.

At least Ed Hightower wasn't with him.

Because rest helped us so much today

[colonel06 1,948]

I guess these guys needed a loss

[Alford Bailey 13,189]

If anything, I guess losing gets the guys a little more focused for the real tournament! I was starting to think that they were getting a little too confident thinking they could shoot lights out every time and beat anyone. Time to focus, get some rest, and get ready for the real thing!

Maybe. Everybody knew Michigan was fighting for their post season lives. Yet, we couldnt get focused to take their best shot as a #1 seed?

Clearly we need more to get RoJo and Juwan healthy. Extra rest is a good thing for this team.

I don't think anybody blamed him for the loss, but he is absolute garbage. 

 

I've watched a lot of games from many different conferences (including non-IU B10 games) and the B10 has by far the worst officiating in the country and it's led by this clown. 

 

Edit: The Pac-12 is often very questionable as well.

 He definitely shuffled his feet before the shot...of course the refs will call ticky tack hand check fouls but miss that.

Has rest ever helped a Tom Crean team?

Has rest ever helped a Tom Crean team?

Um, yeah. From January on to this point of the season 

[HoosierAloha 30,102]

If the team needed rest the best way to do that is play your backside off and win a few B1G tourney games so you get a few easy games to start the NCAA tourney.  You don't come out half asleep and just go through the motions in your first tourney games.

Does anybody have a good view of the so called travel at the end of the game?

EXACTLY!

What sucks is we're going to have to wait a whole week to watch this team play again..............

Is this a serious question? How would you track this? Rest helps players with injuries. We currently have two rotation players with injuries. Logic says rest would help this Tom Crean coached team, just as it would any team with injured players.

I'm going to go repeatedly bang my head into a wall now.
