There's no way you do call a timeout there with only one left. You keep that in your pocket of the inbounder can't get it in or if a guy gets trapped and is in trouble. The true malpractice would have been burning his final timeout after the made FT. Their press break was standard. Every team...

Of all the insane moments we've had in program history there's been nothing like this, including Tate's shot. To go to the Final Four, against Duke, after a huge deficit, the insanity of the final seconds, the depth of the shot, nailed by a freshman who hasn't been able to throw the ball in the...

I don't remember the exact time of the game, but Michigan State had 7 offensive rebounds in the first 8-10 minutes of the game. They finished with 9. Great job cleaning that up.

I can't find any good pics of Mullins, but some crappy screenshots... You just can't have that bent of an arm after your release and be a great/consistent shooter.

Two things: 1. He's rushing his shot way more often than early in the year. 2. He's missing plenty of open shots with his feet set and enough time because he's got an issue in his stroke that always leads to inconsistent shooters: he doesn't consistently finish with a straight arm. Players...

Maybe. Different sports, obviously, but Dante Moore turned down being the #2 pick to return to Oregon.

Yeah that was all my point was re: being a soph. At the time Hawkins entered the draft compared to where Mullins is now. Hawkins was streaky too but I dunno, plus he shot 50% from deep in the '23 tournament. Biggest stage and top competition and he showed up. Their freshman years don't...

Right now, the idea of Mullins is more enticing than the reality of him, and I'm not talking about potential. He looks the part in many ways and has shown glimpses of great shot making ability, but right now it's just few and far between. Hawkins at least had one NBA skill, if only one. Mullins...

Yes, NIL should make this almost a no-brainer. He'd be rotting in the G League all of next season without question.

The Mullins hype train has to be dead by now, especially in such a loaded draft. I've been in the "he's a lottery pick" camp most of the season but you have to believe your eyes at this point. I've always been a proponent of guys leaving early as soon as they have the chance, but Mullins is the...

We recently lost to horrendous Creighton and Marquette teams. I don't know how anyone could be shocked if we lose in the opening round.

It's a flawed teams with no shortage of issues, but we just can't get nothing offensively from Mullins/Karaban/Ball since they're all subpar defenders. We can't shoot and we can't attack the rim. Since things fell apart vs Creighton, from deep: Ball: 14/43 (.325, so actually an improvement)...

Yep. The talent level on this team isn't as high as 2006 but the vibe and feel as a fan is similar.

Nothing gets me like Doris Burke's incessant "the dribble drive".

First half looked like more of the same, second half was our Nov/Dec team.
