BZ playing well. 9 of the 15.
Can't make up my mind as to which is better - 55-21 or 48-14, but 34-11 will do.

Who's this Goraski the announcer keeps referring to?

Re: MBB @ UNC
It’s getting hard to see any reason to play Walker. I’ve been a believer but..
He doesn’t rebound well
He’s a liability on defense
He handcuffs the offense
The cats just aren’t as good when he’s on the court.

Re: MBB @ UNC
He has been a different player this year....
Great to see the hustle, and I have seen Walker do some serious blocking out for rebounds.

I agree. He has a spurt now and then, but overall, a liability.Prodigal Cat wrote: ↑Sat Feb 08, 2025 7:25 pmIt’s getting hard to see any reason to play Walker. I’ve been a believer but..

Re: MBB @ UNC
Given that the regular season title is well out of reach I've started watching these games with the mindset of "Could MSU beat these guys on a neutral court?". The answer for UNC is absolutely.

Re: MBB @ UNC
I don't disagree with the premise, however when they need a few points mid game he does seem to be able to find them.catscat wrote: ↑Sat Feb 08, 2025 7:33 pmI agree.

We've seen flashes this year of his ability to be a complete player, which makes it that much more frustrating when he isn't.

We really need to stop having bad ball-handlers try to dribble up court by themselves and predictably get the ball knocked out from behind every single time.

Walker has 5 rebounds at the half. I did see him play some nice defense on one possession.

As much as I bag on BW, I support this statement. There’s been a slow but steady increase of his ability to up his game on both ends.rfischer94 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 08, 2025 7:57 pmWalker has 5 rebounds at the half. I did see him play some nice defense on one possession.

Now it's Goraxy, oops back to Goratski.

Re: MBB @ UNC
Been checking the score now and then. Seems like we're always behind by just a little bit. When we do get a lead we can't hold it. We're good at matching what the other team is doing but can't surpass them and ultimately a little spurt does us in.
