Good start so far...need to keep getting the ball inside to free up the J's

Not a fan of the uni's, they look like a practice jersey.

Good offensive movement so far.

Yea. The block O on the front is pretty cool, but you can't have that and the numbers. One of the two has to go.

Williams with a nice block, but of course they hit the 3.

and traveled to open up the 3.

Not sure about that goaltending call

 

[buckeyesin07]

Stauskas apparently finds it necessary to turn around and stare down an opposing team's bench EVERY time he hits a 3. What a bush league punk.

Yep, thought he got it and hit it to the glass, not on the glass or coming off it. Too bad they didn't show the replay.

Hey he's got to let everyone know he actually showed up tonight after his goose egg in Columbus.


Weather the storm and we'll be ok.

i'm not optimistic about tomorrow. fortunately, we won the first go-round despite shooting 33% from 3, while attempting 7 fewer free throws.

for us, the key will be finding ways to score within the arc, while simultaneously limiting scum's hot hand (40.2% from 3). the common theme among our 4 losses is shooting way, way too many 3s. each loss witnessed 50% more 3s than our average number of 3s attempted during victories (24 vs. 16). if we shoot 3s in bulk, that's a tell-tale that we're lazy, which is an odd recognition since osu is shooting a respectable 37.4% from 3 (87th percentile). i think matta recognizes this. we've averaged 9 three-pointers over the last 4 games and have shot 42%.

so...

tomorrow, like the last meeting, may very well rest on osu's perimeter defense (3-point defense = 84th percentile) and scum's perimeter offense (3-point offense = 98% percentile). the skunkbears went 6/20 from 3 three weeks ago, which is no surprise since osu probably has the nation's best defensive backcourt.

not the start i was hoping for.

our ball screen defense sucks so far.

 

[scarletmike]

Well that offensive possession was offensive...

Make that two in a row...fuck scUM.
