MM doesn't play hard

[kurt cloverdales]

He was just a big kid with a perfect looking shot who was way overrated, he's just not a basketball player. Tucker is just a freshman with a bloated ego who seems to want to be Kobe with a 10th of his talent and desire. I still have hope for him. MM is what he is.

Rest of the team I think actually give pretty good effort. they all just have flaws in their games, and when you have a coach who is ****ing clueless, and unable to cover their flaws and play to their strengths, you will see the shit that you saw on the court tonight.

Unfortunately, if you look at the schedule there will be 8 -10 more of these beatdowns, I think from here on out I'm not going to be critical of the players or call them out, don't care if they're getting paid or not.

Ballo as an example is a great kid, a great representative of IU, he bust his ass on the court every game. why boo him.

the silver lining those that wouldn't let Dolson move on Woodson last year I'm sure have seen enough. In today's NCAA especially basketball this thing can be turned around pretty damn quick. better days are ahead just going to have to get through the season

I wonder if MM was the main offensive option would he become more assertive.

Regardless, he needs to be a piece and there are better options (eg feed Ballo).

I don't think so, he's strictly a spot up shooter with great size. especially playing for Woodson. could he become more? time will tell will be interesting to see how he does next year wherever he ends up.

Tucker needs to be getting more minutes and more good shots, he's got upside to his game

Ballo chose to be here. I don’t know him, so I have no idea what type of person he is. No one leaves those 2 programs to play at Indiana because it gives them a better chance to win.

Do you really think so ? It’s sometimes like watching the walking dead 😵

i don't like calling out players by name. That said, he's 3 for 24 shooting the past 3 games and 0-11 from three.

More telling...he has one- repeat- ONE (1) steal---for the entire season. Ouch. So much for blind squirrel finding the nut.

Great bball players know that playing tuff D and stealing the ball leads to scoring. Ask Big Ray. His breakaway dunks were thunderous.

MM's DNA is and always has been ... if he doesn't get shorts and/or hit shots early in the game, he quits, he pouts, he stands on D, he gets pissed when taken out of the game.

one total steal as a starter in 18 games. You almost have to try NOT to steal the ball to accomplish that.

He would first need to get in a good defensive position to start. .... attention to detail was obvious last night an other nights he is asked by the ref to tuck in his shirt ... he never tucks in the back of his shirt. I know, a strange observation but in a way that is very telling to me but I am OCD about shit like that and uniforms anyway so it's my issue probably. He still doesn't play defense.
