Turner & Buford sizzling at the same time. It is a beautiful thing to see. You can't teach that fadeaway by William. And the hanging midrange bank shot by Evan was Bron like.

sweet to see PJ drop a 3.

23-29

Big three by PJ Hill to slow down Sparty's run.

PJ Hill is such a great backup PG.

 

[billmac91]

it's awesome to see PJ playing so well.

Is Buford rocking a slight O-hawk? Or are my eyes decieving me
GO BUCKS:osu:

I wish we could have stopped that last 3 pointer before the end of the half, yet i'm happy and impressed with the way we've been playing. This is a pretty crucial game for the Buckeyes.

On another note, I don't advise watching an NBA game then a college game. It's really weird, I was watching the Celtics Vs Mavericks and everything runs smoothly. In college it's just a war haha.

Go Buckeyes :osu:

I thought we played a good half but at the end we were not defending the 3 as well as at the start. We need to pick that up.
Looking a heck of a lot better than the last game.

Somehow, being up 5 doesn't feel so great after being up 13 and letting Sparty back in it. MSU finished the half on a 15-7 run.

We probably have to hold them under 30 in the second half too if we're going to win.

Buckeyes up by 5 after a MSU 3pt at the halftime buzzer. Nice job weathering the storm after MSU's run to close the lead to 3. Buckeyes are looking pretty solid on D, but need to create more quality possessions. PJ having his best game of the season, so far, especially on the offensive end. If he can keep sinking shots, he could become a big factor, as most teams don't seem to respect his scoring ability. It's funny to me that he's so frantic with his movement, but his passes are often soft and lazy. Dallas has been very quiet so far, I'd like to see him and BJ get some more passes down low. 00 for MSU seems to be pretty loose with contact, he could get in foul trouble if we press the issue. OSU shooting %55, MSU %37, need to guard Summers on the 3.

 

[buckeyemania11]

gotta love these ticky tack foul calls

 

[bucknutz]

someone needs to knock summers back down to size.

 

[PlanetFrnd]

Evan Turner is very skilled.


One thing that still bothers me about the Bucks' zone is that backside defender. I don't know what it is, but the boys just can't get that rotation down. It used to often be a big man stranded out there, but Diebler struggles with his help rotation in and recovery, and the backside guard is not "shading" down well from his elbow position.

 

[bucknutz]

love the way the buckeyes continue to move the ball around.

Bucks shooting free throws from here on out.
