Michigan at Northwestern - Game thread

Needs to learn the offense much better tho. He missed some wide open guys rolling to the paint a couple times that Z wouldn’t.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:46 PM ^
Jones better not whine too much about that call. DeJulius was in better position than he was when he drew Simpson’s second.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:46 PM ^
"One of the better 3-point shooting teams in the B1G." I'm sorry?
February 12th, 2020 at 9:47 PM ^
Elite post up recruits should love this offense.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:47 PM ^
Nunez cannot guard a guy with the ball. What the holy hell was that?!
February 12th, 2020 at 9:49 PM ^
Wow good d by Nunez there
February 12th, 2020 at 9:49 PM ^
Good defense by Nunez! I don't know why the kid gets so much grief.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:49 PM ^
We are a ave 3 point shooting team. I’m pretty sure
February 12th, 2020 at 9:50 PM ^
I just don't get why Teske doesn't even try to initiate contact. Go to the hoop. Don't settle for hook shots. He might not have the technical skills like Davis(!), but against the guy who's currently on him, he should be able to go into his body to get there. You're bigger than him! Act like it.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:50 PM ^
Dickinson is gonna be a instant upgrade on offense replacing teske
February 12th, 2020 at 9:50 PM ^
14 bench points so far
February 12th, 2020 at 9:50 PM ^
Teske’s offensive game is on a milk carton
February 12th, 2020 at 9:51 PM ^
What is up with Teske? Besides him, the offense has been great, good ball movements and open shots.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:53 PM ^
Defense easily pushes him outside his comfort zone. Plays so soft.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:52 PM ^
Davis is an elite technician in the post and gives a ton of effort. He's been outplaying Teske on the offensive end recently.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:53 PM ^
There ya go Big Jon!
February 12th, 2020 at 9:54 PM ^
There you go, big boy!
February 12th, 2020 at 9:54 PM ^
Glad the commentators are mentioning it. Brendan Quinn’s article in the athletic is AN AMAZING read.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:54 PM ^
I don’t know what I would have done if Teske missed that dunk.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:54 PM ^
Davis does what he does and Teske just did...that. fading away. Wow he is...what he is folks.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:54 PM ^
...and then he goes and does that.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:55 PM ^
Teske can only finish if no one is guarding him.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:58 PM ^
And he’s still 50/50 with those
February 12th, 2020 at 9:55 PM ^
Toddlers have better foot work than teske
February 12th, 2020 at 9:55 PM ^
How can you be scared of NW?
February 12th, 2020 at 9:55 PM ^
Watching Teske in the post right now is reminding me of watching the wrestlers in HS play 3 on 3 after practice. Just zero touch.
February 12th, 2020 at 10:03 PM ^
Hey now, wrestlers play basketball with a lot more physicality than Teske.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:56 PM ^
Now that was a good pass by Teske
Which apparently makes Bardo think he's an NBA player. Lulz ok Stephen
February 12th, 2020 at 9:57 PM ^
Nice pass by Big Jon, and a great catch and finish from Isaiah!
February 12th, 2020 at 9:57 PM ^
Nice dime by Teske
February 12th, 2020 at 9:57 PM ^
I have no idea how Livers made that.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:59 PM ^
Learned from X.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:57 PM ^
Teske in the NBA?
February 12th, 2020 at 9:57 PM ^
Jeez how did livers get that in the basket???
February 12th, 2020 at 9:58 PM ^
Teske with a clean dunk....gtfo.
I wouldn't mind seeing more Big Country, but I don't want to see him worn down too much. We're going to need him in March.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:58 PM ^
Teske in the NBA !?!?
February 12th, 2020 at 10:00 PM ^
Someone has to replace the nets on the baskets in those arenas. Why not him?
February 12th, 2020 at 9:58 PM ^
I bet NW would play better if Collins crawled around like a dog.
February 12th, 2020 at 9:59 PM ^
Nice of Northwestern to not bother with the offensive glass. 0 OREBs at halftime.
February 12th, 2020 at 10:12 PM ^
It’s impressive, honestly. You’d think they’d have gotten one, just by accident. They missed a lot of shots...
February 12th, 2020 at 10:00 PM ^
we basically scored 38 points in the last 13 minutes of that half. thank heaven man, that was like watching 3 rd graders play hoops to start. whew.
February 12th, 2020 at 10:02 PM ^
I thought you weren't able to watch this one on TV, XM?
February 12th, 2020 at 10:04 PM ^
following on ESPN 'game cast' and checking the box score.
thinking of hooking up hulu though. not tonight, but soon.
February 12th, 2020 at 10:03 PM ^
I like this team with Livers. Everyone rounds into their role, and Johns/Davis have improved over the course of the year. Seems like Brooks now solid contributor and DDJ off the bench. Franz better overall, still can’t buy shots. Definitely improving. Need to close this out and win by 15+.
February 12th, 2020 at 10:06 PM ^
Teske is simply not comfortable as a post player. Stiff foot work and zero touch on his shot. Cannot wait for Dickenson
February 12th, 2020 at 10:06 PM ^
There's a real mental/attitude difference between Teske and Davis. Davis goes TO the hoop on every shot. Teske goes AWAY. Unbelievably aggravating and baffling. Hell, they have the same big man coach!
February 12th, 2020 at 10:09 PM ^
Not only that, Teske goes unbalanced, too... Beilein would have corrected this I think.. because Teske is actually regressing... it was bad last game..and the game before.... its as if he is being told not to make an offensive charge.
February 12th, 2020 at 10:20 PM ^
Development of big men outside of PnR is one thing Beilein is not known for so probably not.
February 12th, 2020 at 10:08 PM ^
Davis has surpassed Teske officially in my mind........ it feels Teske didn't take the new coaching here well, and has become worse... because down low he has no presence going up for the shot...its weak, and he is 7'1", and I feel bad for him because he is playing his way out of the NBA if he continues being totally ineffective on offense down low.
February 12th, 2020 at 10:11 PM ^
There was never any chance of him being in the NBA.
