THe Official Make a Spartan Start Shartin' Game Thread

[Blueballer]

Oh well we hung with them for a while. Learning experience HOPEFULLY

 

[superjohn]

It's unquestionably the best team we'll face all year. Their game against Duke was toe to toe and 2 loaded teams playing at a really high level.

I think Wichita will be as good as them.

 

[BlueDogs]

Yes, Tom Izzo’s coaching is why Winston is hitting circus shots. He must of got smarter a half time.

That's not it...but if it makes you feel better...

 

[3rdbass]

Horrible, horrible defense.

 

[NielsisGood]

I don't see how we can hang with Wichita and Cincy. It will be the same men amongst boys thing.

MSU is way better than either of those teams. They have 2 guys that are going to be top 10 picks and neither was even their best player tonight.

 

[August_West]

Jalen Adams is a competitor but he tends to berate teammates very demonstratively. He's gotta piss off guys. Alterique stepped in between him and Terry on one occasion.

So did napier

 

[Tenspro2002]

tell me 2-1 with wins against oregon and arkansas before this tourney started and i'd take it

I said coming in that I would have considered 2-1 a good tournament. But we have to beat Arkansas.

 

[SwingDog]

One and done on nearly every offensive possession for us. And Ollie said the biggest key was stopping Winston. Oh, well this is not a pretty or well-played game by us but it's also not a bad loss.

 

[Stainmaster]

So did napier

¿How many court summonses did Napier get though?

 

[Bomber36]

Every loss hurts, but I don’t think they ever quit. Last year they did on numerous occasions.

 

[Horatio]

It's amazing how people could watch this game and not clearly see why this game was lost. Our freshman center Carlton and DO couldn't handle the 27 year old grown men that Mich. St. has. That's it.

 

[Scoe]

Moving onto Sunday.

 

[superjohn]

MSU >>> Wichita and Cincy

Definitely better than Cincy, not so sure about Wichita. The point is those other two teams will physically make us look like little boys just as MSU did.

 

[AntG168]

I think Wichita will be as good as them.

This game was a lot closer than the final score will indicate. I don’t see how this game shows we can’t compete against wich st and Cincy

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Let’s go out and cream the razorbacks

 

[storrsroars]

Winston: 12-15 (80%)
Rest of MSU: 20-51 (39.2%)

Do WSU or Cincy have a Winston?

 

[Stainmaster]

Definitely better than Cincy, not so sure about Wichita. The point is those other two teams will physically make us look like little boys just as MSU did.

Wichita's starters will be similarly challenging, but no way will they be able to go 9 deep like MSU.

 

[RayRay34]

This was just a good old fashioned blowout. Yes MSU is the better team, but that was just a horrible brand of basketball we played in the 2nd half. Hopefully they learn from this.

 

[Javjudah]

Can y'all remember when we had Oakfor, Armstrong, Villanueva, Boone, Rudy Gay, Rashad Anderson, Denham Brown, Marcus Williams, Ben Gordon, AJ Price... ? What do you think the other teams and there fans were saying? We don't have the same quantity of Quality players right now. I appreciate the guys playing hard.

 

[NielsisGood]

I think Wichita will be as good as them.

Did you watch Wichita play the other night? This MSU team is at a different level. They're bigger, faster, deeper, just all around more talented.

 

[superjohn]

Has his flaws but he's much better than Nolan

No he's not.

 

[joober jones]

Sadly enough he really isn't especially on offense, which is really saying something.

 

[jibsey]

We simply could not match up physically with them

 

[Blueballer]

ESPN happy. They got the storyline they were looking for

 

[BugsyCT]

It is what it is. Shake it off, move on and come back strong vs. Arkansas.
