February General CBB Discussion Thread

What are we rooting for? Mi to win out? Houston and Dook to lose? Do we want az to win? Lmk how to direct my psychic energy
 
Big game tonight
U of M @ Mackey
Fascinating game. It would seem UM could annihilate Purdue, but given at Mackey, who knows. UM presents all the things that are issues for Purdue. Purdue has been a bit up and down as well, so a game like this where you can't not get up for it, likely shows what their ceiling is.

As someone wrote, I think we want UM to win out to preserve that last 1. We aren't catching them. It would be fun to have a goliath going into the dance, always make the tourney more interesting.
 
High D1 programs signing on Assistant coaches with little to no HC experience that bomb? You know that list is long, right? Kyle Neptune, Kim English, Red Autry to kick off the list.
That win championships
 
The 23 team had a Block% of 12.7% and a Steal% of 9.2%. The 24 team had a Block% of 14.2% and a Steal% of 9.3%.

This year's team has a Block% of 15.3% and Steal% 10.6%, we are getting more blocks and more steals than both championship teams.
The Boneyard is no place to try to win discussions with actual facts. It’s like you don’t know us at all any more.

There is Quinnipiac vs Fairfield today

side note. I really don't watch any NBA. No football today so I told my daughter we could watch an NBA game. I check the schedule, the Celtics play at 3:30 and everyone else is this evening. I used to spend many Sunday afternoons watching basketball when I was young. Or maybe it was just that the Celtics were on. It's too bad. I checked the Boneyard pro sports board and surprising there are no NBA threads there either, just one about Wemby, so maybe everyone is kind of off the NBA

this is great, just awful


It’s difficult to distinguish between a. basketball
player and football running back .

Was hoping UM would underperform tonight because I’m going all in on them covering v Duke.

Looking at this 1 vs 7 contest, one would have thought it might be a good matchup seeing it's on Purdue's home court, but so far Wolverines are tearing it up.

As much as I don't want to say this, but Michigan's A-Game might be the best in this year's field. But we all know all it takes is a team like Michigan playing their B-Game in the tournament feeling a lot of pressure going up against a hungry lower ranked team that senses blood in the water.
 
Michigan may be the 2nd coming of our ‘24 team. If they hit their 3s they won’t lose again
They are taking mostly uncontested threes. The issue is helping out on the inside, and so perimeter is not covered.
 
Purdue can’t rebound. They’ve maybe given 10-15 extra chance points.

And Maye is using the Hurley 24’ strategy on Purdue’s center. Letting TKR get his and shutting down everything else.
 
If St John’s ends up a 4 or 5 seed, they could be an interesting matchup against the Wolverines in the sweet 16 with their own 3 big lineup.
