and that's also why Ohio State has a shot to be in the Final Four.
As bad as some of the supporting players played in this game, they still had a chance to tie the game with a 3 at the end.
Should (hopefully) be a fun March.

All right, all right, all right.
I dont care if the entire Purdue bench was guarding him.
Turner needed to take that last shot.

What Would Evan Turner Do?

Yup. Too many missed opportunities.
As sloppy as they played they still had a look to tie it. No one else I would rather have taking that shot either.

The best three point shooter took the shot, so I have no problem with that.

I'd hit it!
Purdue is a very good team but you hate losing any of these games at home. It's just very difficult to get those road wins in conference. Too bad we had so many chances to pull this one out.

Would agree if we weren't down 3. I take Diebs over Evan all day behind the arc.

Yeah Diebs was the right man for the shot down by 3.... I wish we would of taken a timeout but the look he got was great...
Not a bad loss though....well every loss is bad but you catch my drift.

The Bucks needed a 3, and the guy leading the conference in made 3-point baskets took the shot - I'm OK with that.
Purdue was smart to back off Turner on the high screen late in the game, forcing him to take long jumpers rather than have an open lane to drive. I'm expecting to see more teams do that when Dallas sets a screen for ET near the top of the arc.

FIFY. I'll take 13-18 (72%) from the line compared to earlier this year. From the 6 minute mark when they were only down by 2 on there were way too many questionable shots too early in the shot clock. Work for a better shot and this game might have gone the other way. Live and learn Bucks... time to get Sparty this weekend.BuckeyeTillIDie;1661439; said:

Didn't deserve to win tonight unfortunately. Took way too many poor shots in the 2nd half once we closed the gap. Needed to attack the basket instead of settling for 3's and long 2's and have to make foul shots. Diebler was absolutely the right man to take the last shot down three. I've got no problem with not taking a timeout either, we ended up with a wide open look and you can't ask for more than that. Purdue was playing great defense all night, I doubt giving them a chance to set up their defense and deny Diebler the ball would've given us a better look. Time to regroup for Sunday.
