Something I’ve come to accept is this group just isn’t that fun to watch

"Differences: - Saturnalia was a much longer celebration, lasting up to seven days, compared to modern day Christmas which usually lasts only one day. - Saturnalia was celebrated with feasts, drinking, and music, whereas modern day Christmas is usually celebrated more quietly."

sounds pretty good
 
I don’t understand what some people expect. Are we supposed to get a 20 point lead in the first 10 minutes of every game we are against an opponent who is worse than us? And then what, slowly build to a 40 pt lead by the end with the other team never making a run? Have we never watched basketball before. And to make matters worse we are still starting 2 freshmen and 2 sophomores. We are going to be somewhat inconsistent all year do to that alone.

I am enjoying the process of this teams growth. Sure it can be frustrating at times but I am still enjoying it. Maybe I am alone.

I'm with you, man. Too many of our fans want to skip the process.
 
Dang, that makes me wonder even more about NET.

I agree we played better.
Yeah we will see how it ends up at the end of the year. I never really worry about it. Finish in the top 1/3 of the Big and we don’t have to stress.

Also Michigan is already listed as a Q1 win as well. For those that are “the sky is falling “ types about no big wins.
 
We played better but still not even close to a tournament team. Why the hell did we take Sparks the kid should be wrestling or football. Also I can't believe I'm saying this play Leal over Gunn balls move better and has a nice shot.

You are so full of crap. You might want to revisit your old posts. Said sparks was better than Ware and the he would start over Malik. Also wanted Leal gone for him. Go back and look at those steaming piles of 💩
 
I keep thinking some kind of corner is going to be turned where I will look forward to watching IU games again.

That is proving to be pretty elusive.
It’s tough to have fun falling asleep on the couch. Oh well, need to break out of the pattern of getting up at 4. At least I made it to halftime.

Please don’t watch. I enjoyed the game.

Its weird. Its seems like so many people here are suffering while watching the games.

There is a simple solution; I'm not sure why they have not thought about it.

We handily beat a cupcake team, and yet they are whinging about the performance. We they bitch, Lose they bitch. :rolleyes:

My only complaint is that I wish Woodie had played a couple of the walk-ons.

The Negative Nancy Whine and Cheese Club wallows in misery and farts storm clouds when everyone else is enjoying themselves during a game or after a win. They party if IU loses. They will tell you that their incessant whining is evidence they have higher expectations and care more than the rest of us. They say that their unrelenting pessimism is them being realistic. We win and the other team sucks more than us. We lose and the other team sucks too. It’s a strange bunch, and I wouldn’t go to a game with any of them.

Ok, so he made a shot and passed the ball up top to somebody else. He also had zero assists and a turnover in his limited time. What about on defense? The only time he didn't look like a statue was when he literally fell over his own feet as the NA player blew by him. Gunn had 3 steals.

Ironic post that comes on what is probably the best offensive night since Tom Crean was coach. 12-24 from 3! 25 assists and legitimate sharing of the ball and actively seeking out the open man! Confident shooters from multiple guys! Probably wasn’t the best defensive performance, but this was the best the offense has looked since when Yogi was here in 2016. The game last night could be a harbinger of what this team can consistently look like by March, even against the best competition. A lot of talent on the team and a lot more room to grow as a team.
