First half thoughts

[rodserling]

Likes. Andrew and Aaron. We never quit. Defense. I think we will wear them down. Trey is getting tough.


dislikes. They are getting away with holds on every screen. Willie is getting used on Defense. They are getting all long rebounds and most 50/50 balls.

Defense looked sluggish the first 10 minutes, but started to tighten the screws after that. A fresh half with a clean slate still to come. I like our chances.

Willie has to be a lot more aggressive the second half and leave it all on the floor.

Don't like the effort on the glass. With the long balls there is going to be long rebounds. A shot goes up, all 5 guys need to find someone and stick their *** In them. It's basic. Wisconsin is getting those 50/50 balls. All that said, d it up in the second half, and rebound the ball, and we will be fine.

 

[silverado]

We're cool.

I think we will come out and wear them down. We will be fine.

I have no idea what has happened to his aggression the past week. all he wants to do is catch lobs.

rebound the dang ball we win going away

Forget about shot blocking and concentrate on blocking out - we can scarcely afford to give up boards at the same clip in the 2nd half. Second chance points is killing us.

 

[Askeladden]

Without seeing the stat, I can think of 7 second chance points for them. Might be 9..

Rebound. Willie and trey stop taking jumpshots. Take it to the rim.

To me, it's all about Towns. He's our best player. Towns has got to be disciplined and stay away from the offensive fouls when WE have the ball! We need him to score, but he pushes inside, and that gives them the ball and puts him on the bench and instead of us scoring they get a chance to score!!!!

 

[sosoblue]

I thought our freshman played nervous except for Towns. Twins are playing great but we are not aggressively going after the ball on the offensive and defensive end. I believe we are so enamored with our man to man defense that it's disrupting our movement to the ball.

Like that dude posted, rebounding, rebounding, rebounding.

Willie is being conservative on D. Stayed out of foul trouble. Will amp it up 2nd half.

I don't like the way the game is going and wisc. can beat us if we don't play help defense, in fact we could get beat by double digets.

Willie just needs to play d and hit the boards. Every guy must play within themselves for us to win this thing.
