He was commentating about Tim Priller. Talked about how he got in the Northwestern game and was a "five screen guy." On cue, Priller sets five screens on his first possession in the game.
Then he starts singing "Priller" to Michael Jackson's "Thriller"
Hilarious.
The sad part is, Priller was setting screens off the ball. And it was working. And it made it apparent to me how much better we would be (and how we would cut down on turnovers) if we had MORE guys who were setting off-ball screens where they don't expect to get the ball themselves but are instead trying to free up a teammate. Sigh....
Dakich was right when he said IU's offense is very good when attacking off the break. (Kudos to CTC and I can live with a few turnovers on these possessions). What he did not point out was how BAD our offense is in the half court. Not enough off-ball screens and too many forced passes (that become turnovers) that, even if completed, don't result in a bucket or even good position.
