Nebraska (6-4) vs Loyola Marymount (3-7) Game Thread

[Dean Smith]

No ball movement, no player movement. Not even looking at feeding post players. No purpose to any screens vs the zone. LMU is horrible so I think we will win this, but I don't see anything fundamentally sound in the design of the offense. I can't tell what they are trying to accomplish. If they score it seems to be by accident. I plan on putting this on every one of my post for the next three weeks:

 

There are three basic keys to being successful on offense: 1. Only throw the ball to people of your team (hardest one of the three but a fail), 2. Move, Move, and Move (we don't move players or the ball - fail) and 3. Only take easy shots. (fail) Our offense has been a complete cluster all year. I have no idea what our offensive philosophy is. What are we trying to do?

Shavon is fine. He's hit a rough patch. Hopefully a small one. He'll probably come out half two zoned in and hit his first 5 shots.

[ajb5856]

Nevermind

This is a perfect game to give Nick Fuller Tai Webster's minutes.  Tai has got alot of chances. next guy up to see what he can do

 

 

This is a hard game to watch at midnight

...other than free throws, has Shavon scored?

[ajb5856]

Here we go

[Huskerpapa]

Never mind

[HuskerFever]

BLOWOUT!

[Huskerpapa]

Keep it going men, keep it going.

2 FGs for Shavon now. 2 for 7.

[PeltzFan12]

Nevermind

Hahaha....

[ajb5856]

Walt with the fill. And the dunk! Love it.

[HuskerCager]

OK, that was nice.

[PeltzFan12]

Shavon played well against Rhode Island.  I feel like the Creighton game, where they really sagged off him and took him out of the game, completely messed with him.  He hasn't really been the same player since....

[ajb5856]

Let's finish! No reason to win by less than 25.

[PeltzFan12]

Perhaps Walt's best in game dunk so far in his career....

[Fullbacksympathy]

The first shot from Shavon in the second half was a wide open three he barely missed. That was the best shot I've seen all game. Coaches can't make the shots for players, but they should be able to coach them open.

A bright note from Hawaii: welcome back Walt.

50-25 it is.

How much is not having a big man in the middle (other than Walt) affecting the other players?

[Huskerpapa]

That was a flop...

[extremehoops]

We are beating the 256 ranked team in the country.

Did Petteway just signal to Miles to not take him out of the game?

Refs bit on another flop

[HuskerCager]

What an acting job.  Terran has had 2 terrible fouls calls go the other way on him.
