Game thread....

I don't know why I get in these pointless debates. First you said the offense could have been better. Now it's the defense. Which is exactly what I said. My point was the offense was more than enough today.

I simply added that the defense could be better, as Buzz said. But, my main point is that the offense could have been better. Offense was mostly one on one baskets. The scorer was very friendly to Derrick who was credited with 7 assists. Passing the ball to a guy who takes 3 dribbles to score is not an assist in my book.

Derrick is what he is. To give him credit for the offensive efficiency is a fools paradise. He is not an offensive weapon and the offense does not flow with him. MU was down 5-10 most of the game. It's not like MU was toe to toe with Nova today. It took a special comeback (and poor free throw shooting from Nova) to get it into OT. When MU needed a bucket to pull even or put pressure on Nova, Nova got a stop and went on a run. When MU needed a stop, they could not stop Archie.

All anyone who does not see eye to eye with you is saying is we wanted see if Dawson could have made a difference. You are the one who talked negatively on Dawson, yet it is you who gets upset when others talk about Wilson's flaws.

The advantage Marquette had against Nova in the paint. Dawson does a much better job of setting up Gardner and Chris than Wilson does. I would have liked to see more than 8 minutes for Dawson and that is all anyone else said until you disparaged Dawson for your undying support of Derrick.

Yep....need to give guys a chance.

So it's okay to repeatedly bash Derrick after every loss. But it is somehow untoward to point out that Dawson looked awful when in the game. Why?

WTH is going on.

Gotta get stops though. The offense was plenty good enough today. Trying to imagine how it could have been better but I can't. Buzz said as much in the post game.

Difference in the game was three point shooting in my opinion. That is why Derrick needs to be on the bench.

WOW, that is how you read that? Man, that is something else. No wonder you are difficult to communicate with. I am done with you.

Vice versa. Isn't losing a blast?

I notice the post game discussions are always more fun after wins......

[mufansince72]

I actually thought today was about the best they have played all season. Just lost to a better team.

[kneelb4zerg]

Every post after a loss: Buzz should have played X, Y, or Z instead of A, B, or C. Makes me long for the days when we ran 6 DEEP SON.
