Way too many open looks from three.
I can see a run when Dez and Layman get back in.

Gopher fans, any thoughts on Jarvis Johnson next year?
The General
Footballguy
That was crazy. He has been blocked a lot this year driving to the rim is the only thing I can think.

I dunno. Indiana just looks quicker to me and MD's D is getting penetrated easier than a drunken cheerleader on prom night. Melo looks frustrated, too.
The General
Footballguy
That's an awful call.

The one for Layman? Agreed. If he didn't walk (he did) then he initiated contact. The other kid was backing up.
The General
Footballguy
Yeah. Been a good game by the refs tonight though. Like that they are letting them play.

Especially compared to last year, when they played a similar style, except with basically 1 guy on the team that could hit a jump shot

Best game they have played considering the competition in a long time. Not much a team can do when the other team is shooting the three like that.
Ouch. Maryland didn't play defense, didn't shoot free throws, didn't execute on offense. And Ferrell couldn't miss. Odd, because if you told me in advance that Maryland would shoot 51% and 50% from three, I would have been all over that.
I'm almost getting to the point where I'm disappointed when I see Dez come back in the game. Didn't think that would ever happen, but he just doesn't look right to me. I think Maryland's best lineup is Trimble, Layman, Pack, Nickens, and Dodd/Graham/Smo.

MD got out-hustled, too. First time I can say that in a Terps' game I've watched this year. They didn't NOT hustle, but IU was just quicker to the ball.
For all of the 3s IU hit, I was more alarmed at how easily they were able to drive inside.

I'm not sure what is going on with Dez. He looks hesitant. And when he does penetrate, half the time he ends up with an awkward shot. Looks like a guy who has lost his swerve.

Only seen a handful of the top rated teams this year but the Badgers bigs are the only ones I have seen that match up with the guys Kentucky rolls out.

Caris getting hurt is going to be a major blessing in disguise. These youngsters need the minutes and key game experience for next year.

Bummed I'm going to miss this OT because of dinner plans. Michigan looked way better than what I have read tonight. Great game.

Yeah, I just look at this whole season as building for next year.

Yeah, it sucks he has that toe injury. I wonder how much more he could do at 100%.
If they keep playing this well, they will be fun to watch. I would rather see a team work hard and overachieve then the team they had which was underachieving.
Walton looked a lot better tonight than he has all year. First time I've seen him really able to cut and make quick moves. Hopefully, the toe is healing a bit.
Don't know if anyone else watched the Maryland game tonight, but... wow. Terps did not deserve to win that game. For 37 minutes, the defense looked about the same as it did against Indiana. The press worked, to the point where I wonder why they don't do that more often.
As for Dez Wells, I apologize for everything I wrote last time. Nice work, Dez!

He should be decent. He has some roles that he needs to play with DLS that limits other parts of a very good game.
But actually getting a top recruit from a top-5 school in MN should be good, right?

Yeah, he's a great get. Him and Dorsey coming in from Maryland should team up with Nate Mason to give the Gophers a really good back court of the future. There'll be some growing pains next year with two freshman and a sophomore playing the major guard roles and barring a transfer or Juco or two the front court is going to be absolutely raw so next year's team will likely be ####### terrible, but Johnson is a great get for Pitino and the program.

I promise you that Coach Thorson has coached him to the NCAA level. His talents will dictate his outcome and I think he is ready for the college game.
But this is a very biased opinion.

Side note: I've always looked at the Gopher basketball program as soft, at best, since the early 90's. So being remotely excited is cause for celebration in a lot of ways.

Best coach in MN HS basketball. He can get the maximum from his players, with or without talent.

Sorry I thought you have been following along. That is/was the answer to any Gopher question this year, per Frosty
Carry on.

My bad. I hadn't been following any Gopher basketball until I saw that Jarvis signed. Now I have a 40% interest.
Much more of a hockey guy but this year has been, well, deflating.
