Marquette's 2-3 zone sucks. Marquette's offense against a 2-3 zone sucks. We're lucky to be down nine. Awful half so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Experts are a joke, DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS. Almost was going to go with MSU over UNC And as Michigan State, MAYBE Indiana, and certainly Illinois will soon find out (as well as Wisky), lack of offense loses Championships. The reason Ohio State is the one team that has a shot to really do something is they can score, and I'd say IU has a decent shot as well since they have 2 combustable guards with Bassett and Wilmont, as well as White inside. This league still isn't very good, I wasn't surprised at any of the wins today considering the competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kudos to MSU for their solid defensive work, but Crean's offensive gameplan appeared to be to set a bunch of meaningless screens and dribble around the perimeter until the shot clock winded down -- then shoot a three.

EVERYTIME i've ever seen Marquette, that's their offense, only sometimes it somehow works since Crean can recruit. Hence I say overall, Crean should tithe 10 percent to D Wade.

Soxbadger Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 (edited) Why everyone has said the Big 10 was one of the worst conferences, after the first day, not 1 Big 10 team has lost. As for "Wisconsin not being able to score" what teams outside of the Big 10 shut them down? They laid waste to Pitt: (7) Wisconsin 89, (2) Pittsburgh 75 So the whole "Wisconsin cant score" is highly over rated Edited March 16, 2007 by Soxbadger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Mar 15, 2007 -> 10:35 AM) Yeah so is getting paid to watch basketball games. I love the boss button classy (although I dont really work with spreadsheets still is hilarious) Ya, that thing cracks me up. Marquette proved the comittee got the rankings right. That was just an easy pick with McNeal out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's true to a certain extent. The thing that Marquette USUALLY does differently is that they try and push the tempo, try and push the ball up the floor. I can't recall one time that they pushed it last night. They tried to get into their half-court sets -- which suck in the first place -- and played right into the hands of MSU. Ugh. Next year is the year that Crean is going to make his money. James, Matthews and McNeal all juniors. Hayward starting for a whole year, practicing with the team for a whole summer. Senior leadership with Fitzgerald; and on that same note, hopefully Ooseman will learn how to catch a basketball. Plus MU is bringing in an athletic PF in Trevor Mbakwe (sp?) and a Travis Deiner-shooter type in (don't know his first name) Christopherson. Marquette's window is the next two seasons. Crean needs to win -- in my mind -- at least three or four tourney games in the next two seasons. Edited March 16, 2007 by CWSGuy406 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
