“We know we have to get bigger.”

I hope he means it. Overall, I’m happy with the year. For me personally I’m still most disappointed after 1976 and 1990. Those were huge opportunities that got by us. Although the 1976 game changed on an absolute horrendous foul call on Leon Douglas against Kent Benson. Totally changed the end of the game. But I digress…I need to go yell at some kids to get off my lawn…but there aren’t any. Not my night!
They’re giving us a chance. We just aren’t taking advantage of it.
Michigan just lowers the shoulder and pushes the defender away and no call at all.
If we can get stops I think or offense can answer.
We’ve matured a lot since that AZ game.
But I thought about that too.
Michigan won that timeout. So now let’s win this one.
Adjustments and reactions to adjustments are going to be huge.

Two other ways to defend a dominant post player. When out sized and out matched, either try to match the physicality or put a more athletic, agile and quicker player on them. But you still have to defend the perimeter well and try to make the inlet pass harder. You want the post player to have to adjust to a weak pass. This throws off their timing and it gives the quicker defender an opportunity to get a hand on it.
Funny how Mallette took such care putting everyone’s chair back just right after the press conference. He looked at one chair and didn’t like the way it was and adjusted it a second time.
Draw up a set play for Philon and get him his double double and get him out.
7:47 Jumbo Jet remaining!
(Old Houston Rocket play by play guy used to say that).
With the way continuation has been called all year, how was that not on the shot?
As badly as that start seemed, TT has only cut the lead by two. I’ll take it!
The way this team plays, they have to continue to play with energy and intensity. Some bad, unlucky and sometimes stupid things will happen. But they play their best when playing frenetically. So I say just keep it up and if we maintain this lead then slow the pace when it gets under the 8 minute timeout.
