[January 18, 2025] Indiana State (9-9) vs Drake (15-2)

[BlueBleeder]

Certainly seems that way.

Worse....it feels like it too

 

[BrokerZ]

I know it's popular to hate him right now, but he literally seems like the only guy that will not quit chasing on defense. Seen pretty much every other guy quit except him. Despite Legree's lack of offensive awareness, he is at least hustling on D, too.

Eh, not so sure about that. He’s the guy who’s consistently out of position so he’s scrambling to find a man to defend. He’s certainly trying hard, that’s not the issue. The issue is it’s infuriating to watch.

And to be fair, I’ve hardly mentioned him all year. This game in particular he’s just bugging the shit out of me.

Since Graves keeps promising me we’re playing to get ready for St. Louis, I went ahead and bought my tickets yesterday.

Not sure if Graves knows that seeding kinda matters, but it’s clear that we’re building something special here to get ready for March.

I just bought 3 all-session tickets today. Hopefully my buddy's flight lands on time this year or I might not get to see us at all if we're in that 8v9 game, as that's the only game we missed last year. Unfortunately "Friday" is this team's max.

Not singling you out. Everyone is piling onto the kid and it that is the complaint, people should be all over KD and Legree for the same thing and I've not seen it once.

 

[Jason Svoboda]

Nothing like your home clock operator fucking you out of 3 badly needed points.

 

[BrokerZ]

And of course that’s when we actually hit a three!

 

[4Q_iu]

Good fucking Grief - is it possible for this blind mice crew to get WORSE?

 

[Dymotic]

Hope Graves gets in the portal early and gets guys he knows that can run the type of offsense he wants.

 

[Jason Svoboda]

We need to abandon the switching when 2-3 of the guys have no fucking clue they're supposed to switch.

 

[Jason Svoboda]

We just have a very, very poor basketball IQ squad or they are just really slow processing information in real time.

 

[March On]

Why did he blow the whistle?? Someone please explain??

The clock operator reset the shot clock and should not have.

 

[BrokerZ]

Is Harding our best point guard?

a) Yes
b) Definitely
c) Obviously
d) Clearly

 

[Jason Svoboda]

Pretty amazing, right? Graves literally said he needed walker to play more minutes so we had more length to defend on the wing.

You know what we could use right now? Some more goddamn length to help defend the wing. He fucking said it and isn’t even following his own advice. Unbelievable.

Well, last couple minutes...

 

[March On]

It never reset.

 

[Jason Svoboda]

Is Harding our best point guard?

a) Yes
b) Definitely
c) Obviously
d) Clearly

Someone would say he is the hub off the offense.

 

[Jason Svoboda]

It never reset.

The heads up showed it at 30 during the replay. At least on the broadcast.

 

[BrokerZ]

We just have a very, very poor basketball IQ squad or they are just really slow processing information in real time.

It’d a good observation. Seems like we just can’t execute a game plan. What we’re trying to do based on the scout we don’t stick with.

I remember this being a gripe of Lansing during some of his worst years. Guys just not following the scout. Dumb players make bad teams.

 

[Dymotic]

Gray is playing some heart today at least
