damn, deshaun... your value is not outside the arc but instead inside the key. you're shooting under 30% from 3 but possess an outstanding offensive rebounding percentage of 16%. you need to understand that. quit chucking long distance shots and get ugly instead.

Exactly. We have plenty of guys who can shoot threes. We need Thomas to hit the boards, given his proficiency.

I've never seen a basket waved off for a possession arrow call before this season. Now I've seen two of them go against the Buckeyes this year. How can it possibly be a held ball if it's going through the hoop when you blow the whistle?

 

[Steve19]

Purdue's strategy looks to be to step up the pace, substitute frequently, and win it with fresh legs in the final minutes.

Lots of contact against Ohio State without calls.

 

[Mike80]

Matta complaining publicly about it wouldn't fix that.

Yeah, so? Maybe a little public pressure would get the morons at Big 10 corporate to wake up

 

[jlb1705]

FT shooting isn't helping so far.

 

[bkochmc]

Gotta hit the free throws.

 

[Magua]

I just don't understand the inability of some of these guys to make free throws.

 

[Jake]

2 of 6 on FTs

 

[Mike80]

9-4 fouls so far....

 

[Meyer]

Buford=instant offense

 

[NFBuck]

Wow. Just wow.

 

[Magua]

hahahaha wtf.

he doesn't make the call until he missed the layup?

 

[scarletngrey11]

That was an obvious foul, but why wait till we get the rebound to make the call?

I saw that push 2-3 seconds before the official blew the fucking whistle.

 

[Meyer]

Late fucking foul call. Yeah it was a foul but what, you're only going to call it if he misses it?

 

[Mike80]

The refs feel a constant need to influence these games
