Stephen Bjork

The growth on this team is so obvious. I do though really miss the “fire Shaka” goofs.

Yes but has improved so much this year. Earlier this year could only drive and take the layup, now can pass while driving.

His continued development is in my opinion the most important thing for the rest of the season. Him, Parham, and James plus a portal addition 5 will provide a strong nucleus for the team next year.

Plays more aggressive. Multiple games earlier in the year he would just stand at 3 pt line the full possession. Would like to see him get a charge every once in a while.

Multiple times it was Ross.

Their rotations are bad. Multiple times the guy does not rotate and cut off baseline.

They are getting easier shots at the rim due to ball and player movement on O. Turnovers are leading to easier baskets as well. First 6 minutes or so of the 2nd half will be critical to not go cold and loose the lead quickly.

Marquettes movement on offense has been good and been rewarded with easy baskets.

Hope this will keep Owens playing aggressive.

He is correct.

Similar things have happened to MU in the past.

Keep playing aggressive.

He looks completely different.

Owens so far has played as well
as I have seen him play. Aggressive and athletic. #mubb

You also don’t have Michael Phillips listed who has shown can consistently hit a 3.

Caedin was in for 2 minutes before Parham was in. Maybe
Parham doesn’t want to start. Caedin is the backup 4 and 5.

#mubb Here is a big issue. Around 12 minute, S Jones goes around pick and to basket, passing to open Parham in corner. All good so far, but Jone’s is very wide of Parham messing up rhythm and allowing d to close more. Sean Jones has to be better along with others in passing the ball.

Parham has 4 fouls and they were subbing offense and defense. Don’t know what else you want in.

Keep the ball out of Chase’s hand for the last shot. Have him cut to the basket instead. #mubb

Ross needs to play in control. He is just throwing himself at the basket. I don’t disagree with the other 2 who have not taken any jump this year.

I can’t. Watching this game show how little most of the returning players (except Ross) have improved.

There shot selection from 3 is not good. Those shots are there all 35 seconds of the shot clock.

Also Stevens has come in and made 2 layups. I think he is immune from missing layups. Owen’s is also now in in.

Under 16 timeout. MU up 6-4. Missing 3’s and layups. Phillips coming in after timeout. Caedin has an assist and played good D. Had a great move and drive but missed layup.

Seems just like all those games in Vegas over the past few days.

Good things happen when you cut to the basket without the ball. #mubb

Half court defense looks better. Transition defense…. Not so much.

Noticed as well and how generated an easy basket.

Large amount of problems are fixed by stopping dribble penetration and having attackers blow by to the basket.

I am really confused at lowery who cannot stop dribble penetration at all. He is not guarding the point guard.
