Game Thread for NU vs. Maryland

[TerraCat]

Young needs to stop forcing shots.

 

[Deeringfish]

Love Williams physicality.

 

[Deeringfish]

Young needs to stop forcing shots.

He was calling for the ball but they got it to him late,

 

[Styre]

Genuinely unsure why Maryland was ever ranked. They look horrible.

 

[CatManTrue]

Maryland has a player named Fatts Russell.

Does anyone know if he’s of any relation to Domino? Zing!

 

[GatoLouco]

We had a dangerous lineup there with Berry and 4 bench players looking for Young to make something happen.

Audige subs Berry and scores 4 in quick succession.

 

[TheC]

Ball hog Audige is back I see.

 

[wildcatpn]

Ball hog Audige is back I see.

He’s back at the same time depressing over the top TheC is!!

He was very good at RI. And is really really fast. Clearly not adapting well to the B1G. At least not yet.

Maryland looks terrible. We have to get this one on the road

yep missed the three

 

[Zootcat]

Ball hog Audige is back I see.

Would be interesting to see what % he shoots vs passing.

 

[jensberg]

7 fouls on US 1 on them

 

[Deeringfish]

Just can't finish when they are pushing

 

[TheC]

4 point turnaround on that play

 

[NREPP Fraud]

That was a friggin foul

 

[lunker35]

Refs are calling two totally separate games.

 

[GatoLouco]

7 fouls on US 1 on them

Scott did not draw blood on Simmons so they did not call a foul

 

[Deeringfish]

That was a friggin foul

yes

 

[SDakaGordie]

4 point turnaround on that play

Game of inches…how did Berry miss that layup?

 

[Dugan15]

Pete Nance - Effective FG% by year:

2018-19 - 41.33%
2019-20 - 46.00%
2020-21 - 55.09%
2021-22 - 59.09% (up to the minute).

That is impressive growth in shot selection and success.

 

[freewillie07]

Shocked that wasn't a foul call.

At the same time, Berry has to finish that fastbreak. And certainly can't make it worse with a reach-in foul, with the kind of trouble the team is in. Like him a lot -- he plays fast -- but he's had a few miscues this game that have swung momentum.

Crucial stretch here.

 

[Dugan15]

Assists / Made FG is a stupid statistic. Praising Maryland’s offense for 11/14 is not saying what you think it is saying.

 

[TheC]

Audige is killing us

 

[GatoLouco]

We are OK. We don’t need never met a shot he did not like Audige right now

 

[TerraCat]

Need to get an offense in synch. Just work it and makes some baskets here. I don't understand sitting Vance for Young at this point.

 

[Deeringfish]

Falling apart in the closing minutes

 

[ThatadultfromHolland]

10 - 4 fouls.

 

[Zootcat]

Audige is killing us

I’d be OK if he was limited to shooting on drives, but not on jumpers. Seems like his touch on jump shots is an issue.

 

[GatoLouco]

Bench needs to work the refs. That Young foul in the bonus was a ridiculous call.

 

[TheC]

Our offense actually works when we pass the ball.

 

[GatoLouco]

Surprise zone play doing it again for us. Once more allowed a 3

 

[TerraCat]

Seriously does Audige ever pass the ball? He's playing one on five.

 

[freewillie07]

It's so risky having Boo and Chase on the court at the same time in these tight games. They're both too tempted to abandon the offensive scheme and play hero ball.

We need to preach high-percentage shots. We have options.

 

[DaCat]

It would be nice if we close it out for once.

 

[SDakaGordie]

Huge play by Nance!

 

[DaCat]

Nance is coming up BIG!

 

[Deeringfish]

NANCE

 

[Dugan15]

Nice play, Chase!

 

[GatoLouco]

Look at us, making buckets down the stretch in a close one!!!!!

 

[GatoLouco]

Another bogus foul drawn by Wahab down low.
