College Basketball 2006-2007

Congrats to Bob Knight on victory 880.

 

Agreed.

 

They played 20 minutes of good basketball and 20 minutes of basketball where they showed their main problem of not defending the 3 and when their guards go cold then their offense struggles.

 

Very glad to see the milestone reached and now they can get back to playing the way they played prior to closing in on the record.

Mizzou closes out the non-con tonight against Mississippi State in Columbia. Getting a second win against the SEC and going 11-2 in the non-con would be a great accomplishment. Tyler Hansbrough's brother Ben is a freshman guard for the Bulldogs, he probably won't get a "welcome home" ovation.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Yuck. Mizzou starts out with a 13-0 run to begin the game and Miss St. posts a 13-2 run to follow. Matt Lawrence is 3-3 from 3 pointer to start the game though.

 

Also: How long can Anderson continue to start Marshall Brown? He is so terrible.

What's the alternative, Butterfield?

 

They need to make sure Gordon doesn't go crazy. He's not that big, bring in Tiller to harass him.

I'm not sure, why isn't Grimes starting lately? He played really well early in the year. I like a five of Hannah-Keon-Lyons-M. Lawrence-Grimes

Lyons is a much better fit for the system and he's outplayed Grimes recently.

 

Mizzou miraculously leads 43-37 at the break despite a lengthy stretch where they were outscored by 23 points.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Mizzou ends the half with a 14-0 run to take a 43-37 lead.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Mizzou wins 83-75. Hannah drops 27 and Matt Lawrence adds 17.

Solid win and nice way to end the non-conference schedule.

Damnit. That would have been a great win. DJ White has got to get tougher and stronger down low with the ball. He got punked way too many times and continues to have trouble with players that can match up with his height and athleticism.

 

IU's 4 losses have all come to tourney teams on the road. They have been missing one of their starters for 3 of them.

Penn State (9-4) hosts Northwestern (10-3) in the Big 10 opener today. The game has been subtitled "The first step towards both teams falling below .500"

He was going against Oden. Cut him some slack. I am very impressed you guys played them that well. I wonder if they are starting to hit the wall abit with all of those frosh.

Oden only blocked 1 of his shots. The other big man blocked 3 or 4 more. And it's not just OSU. Same thing happened as a frosh, understandably, in the Big Ten and against Alleyne at Kentucky.

 

I'm not impressed by playing with anybody. IU has the coaching and talent to compete, especially if they shoot well. They gotta be better down the stretch though. Would have been a huge road win against the best team in the conference.

 

Give them 1 of the games they have lost late (Butler, Duke, UK, OSU) and they are a tourney lock.

[TruffleShuffle]

Oden is sick... went 9-10 in free throws against IU while shooting with his left hand (since his right hand is broken).

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Gah, what the hell? The UCLA-Oregon State game won't be on TV anywhere...not here, not in Corvallis. Lame.

You do realize the impact Oden has is felt at all times? You always are worrying about where he is and as a result will sometimes get your shot blocked by a guy you aren't paying the closest attention too.

I also think you might be over estimating your talent level. It is good, but nothing to warrant beating any of those teams you mentioned.

Ha quit being on the west coast and then ESPN and Full Court will pick you up. What a joke. Meanwhile Duke's practice will be shown tonight, you know cause of their program's history.

I understand Oden's impact. But again, I am talking about the times when Oden was out. DJ had 3 shots blocked with Oden on the bench, and didn't dominate like he should with him out. The other guy (whatever his name was) is a good player also, but shouldn't be a dominant force over a player like White.

 

And I don't know how the talent doesn't warrant beating any of those teams, when they played them all close til the final 2 minutes on the road, and 3 of them while missing a key player.

UC Davis got their second win of the year with a 49-47 win over Brown yesterday on a 3 pointer at the buzzer. I still maintain that the basektball team will end up with fewer wins that the football team (6) managed this year.

Maybe it's due to the clean history at Duke.

Do you know who Myron Piggie is? Ask Coach K about him and Corey Maggette then get back to me with their clean history.

awesome response, thank you. Unfortunately, ESPN doesn't talk about that whole thing because they've cast their financial lot with Duke.

Yuck. NU down double digits at the half. They're 7 of 14 from beyond the arc, but just 1 for 7 from inside.

Mike Jones from South Carolina is transfering out of Syracuse. He's unhappy with his playing time of 6 minutes a game. He'd be a very nice pickup for somebody. Edited January 4, 2007 by CuseCubFan69

Will another Illini fan please tell me again how "ugly" IU's offense is?
