Flukey loss to trash Wisconsin

Who Shot out of their minds . whistle was horrible . Mara’s goaltend was out of the cylinder, they were too weak to overturn their bad call. Then a phantom foul on the inbounds . Wisconsin played their typical dirty push off / hand check stuff all day and they called it maybe 2 out of 30 times . We rip that team by 30 most days . I’d throw that tape in the toilet

Actually, I thought the Badgers looked pretty good. Kids played REALLY HARD. They didn't back down. They shot the lights out. I guess our definition of "trash" is different. I came away with a little respect for Michigan's opponent.

The defense was in a blender in first part of second half. Yes they made everything but a lot of them were wide open. I suspect the coaches will see a lot of mistakes on defense in that on stretch and late in first half, when yax and Cadeau were in foul trouble.

Its not flukey at all. This is very much an issue that Dusty has had since he arrived. The lack of adjustments and lazy D has been and will continue to be a problem unless Dusty address it. This is 3 full games of the same thing and its gotten progressively worse over those 3 games. This isnt an "oh well" its very much an "oh crap" issue.

Mara goaltend - it looked like his initial touch was clean, then he touched it again when it looked to be over the cylinder. I thought that call looked correct. The foul late on Cadeau when they both jumped for the ball was garbage.

Yes. Wisconsin is well coached. Michigan needs to shore up the D and will be fine. Natty or bust this season.

I don’t see us ripping them by 30 on most days…

Nothing flukey about how awful we were defensively. Even though we did play hard. This is a Dusty problem dating back to last year. You rely on other teams to shoot 3’s - well if they start making them, you need to adjust (I.e. stop drop coverage on P and R’s!). We didn’t and it cost us.

May was outcoached by Gard. That was a bad loss. Yes thy made 15 3s but do we have any ability to properly defend pick and roll?

The shooting they had - they won’t do that again all year. But, a stretch 5 on us (like we did with Mo) is a neutralizer on Mara - to a point where we get forced to pull him. Loved how we then got more aggressive on the perimeter, but then too much because they turned faarrr too many corners on us.

I was the first one to notice patterns and issues with Juwan. And everyone called me names and made fun of me. Ita happening again with Dusty. And last year and these last 3 games have me worried.

🎯 exactly the point I made in another thread. The team has all the potential in the world. Need to improve effort on D

We are literally #1 in Kenpom defense. As per usual, you have no idea what you’re talking about. Go away

Dusty taking Cadeau out when he looked like he was taking the game over in the second half was a big mistake, he should have left him in there and used his timeouts and the media timeouts to give him breathers

We should just let the other team pick and roll Mara to death while he misses bunnies and doesn’t rebound.

Dusty should have benched him. He definitely was a detriment to the team today.

Because they have been playing well.....sure theres always going to be a dropp off but the last 3 games is a very low floor. If they show up like that much longer they wont sniff a top 20 defense come years end.

Outside of a 10 game stretch this defense has been wildly mediocre my guy.

their guards are ballers . The trash part is the constant hand checking and pushing off . Foul 50 times and hope they only call 15 of them . Insanely frustrating
