Good start with WI missing some wide open shots and their pg not noticing some good cuts.
Mullins ate a choke hold for a few seconds there, but couldn’t get the refs to notice.

Mullins is making an impact defensively. Slowing down the ball with help and closing out on the line.
Cats have failed to capitalize on so many turn overs and defensive stops. So far the refs are mostly just staying out of the way.
Unfortunately we're not able to shoot very well as usual and multiple turnovers trying to feed Nicholson. We could be up by 10 or more. Teams have certainly figured out how to guard Martinelli now
I like your taste. My point is just how frustrating it is to see us piss away opportunities to get significant leads. They come back to haunt us time after time.
All things considered, since Barny is not playing and we're playing a top 20 ranked team we're doing better than one would have expected.
Having Leach and Berry be legit threats from three is so nice. If the pass is crisp, I think we have that Leach to Nick for an easy shot all game.
Mullins got the technical because he was responding to something from the Wisconsin bench.
Total ******** call.

All my numbers are tied to Nicholson/Barnhizer/Mullins.
It may be different without Barnhizer. (i.e. Mullins is replacing Barnhizer) and we still have two guards.
Wisconsin starting to get three point shots from other players and we are going cold again. Hopefully we can play
