The Hawkeyes just lost be two after former Minnesota recruit Andrew Brommer missed two free throws with less than a second left. Feel bad for him. As a kid that happened to me. It was awful.

Um, I missed a couple free throws.

Indeed. I still think that's a weakness of ours.

the thing is...
…it really shouldn’t be with the twin towers and johnson on the squad. I don’t think we are doing particularly bad, I just think UVA is doing a good job of positioning.
again
Gophers just don’t look like they have any rhythm on either end of the floor…like it is the first time they have all played together. Just an observation.
We're painful with our half court offense.
If we’re not scoring in transition, it’s ugly.

I don't think we have a half-court identity.
No real inside scoring. No real slashers. UK fans always criticized Tubby’s “complicated” halff court offnese. I think that’s BS, but….

Landesberg has done nothiing really. We should be up 6 or so.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
Entire second crew in I think. We'll see if someone steps up on offense.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
I'm not a fan of Abu-Shamala and Busch on the floor at the same time...
Especially combined with two first year guards.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
I'm not a fan
of Abu-Shamala on the floor at any time!
what you say here can, and will, be used against you
lol.

Agreed. Last couple games seems less, um, ...... lost?

So ....
… Momentum going into halftime is important, IMO. We probably have it, but we had an 8 point lead with about 5 minutes left in the half when Tubby went to the entire second group. I thought we kept that group out there too long. To me Busch is a role player, not a regular. We should be up 6-10 if Tubby was playing with a shorter bench.

Westbrook playing well to begin the second half.
DJ already with a block and a steal!

OMFG! DJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ

I love it when a player, in this case DJ, stops thinking and just plays.
That drive was pure instinct. Just what he’d do in practice or a pick-up game.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
no, 10 second count I think?

I don't. Division rank from the previious year might make sense.

Lost my conection .......
… Joseph comes through there.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
He has been great. With Williams out. Iverson has been a huge factor.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
I have an exam tomorrow that I haven't started studying for so I'll be brief...
Damian Johnson is awesome and our first teams defense is completely ridiculous.
