Huskers vs Clemson tonight

[bigboxes]

I keep saying to myself, "They are young. They are young." Looks like a lot of potential. How are feeling about this team tonight, @huskerbaseball13?

 

[newAD]

Basketball challenged so pardon if its a bad question. it doesnt seem Nebraska players away from the ball move or set off ball screens. is this just the offense we run? just doesnt seem like alot of movement away from the ball.

They don't.

 

[kaz36]

Geezus. Get Dabo off the screen. We don't need to see him while he is talking.

 

[huskerbaseball13]

Clemson drills an NBA three give me a break.

 

[bomber89]

They don't.

Is that our designed offense?

 

[newAD]

Yeah, he has looked horrible this year so far.

Not the most athletic guy but 7 points 4 boards so far. I'll take that for 2 halfs.

 

[bigboxes]

Aaaaaaugh! Morrow with the missed dunk.

The game of basketball overall has gone to more of an isolation game and you don't see as much team basketball with screens and stuff like that. Under Miles, his offensive sets have been confusing at times and has lacked movement off the ball.

Thanks, i only played high school basketball in the 80's its my only reference. That makes sense. thanks

I hope not. I'd like to see more than just a few high screen and roll attempts, but I can't comment enough as to what Miles wants to do. I've heard a few young guys just aint getting it yet but can't confirm.

I know right. I say that and he makes a couple baskets.

 

[scarletred]

Need to play a cleaner 2half to win on the road tonight.

 

[bigboxes]

31-27 at the half.

 

[newAD]

Keep talking crap about him!

 

[bigboxes]

Need two complete halves.

 

[huskerbaseball13]

This game feels a lot like the Va Tech game. We should have buried them in the first half but we let them stick around. Hopefully we can't extend the lead a bit coming out of the half.

 

[bomber89]

Im happy we are winning after a bad half of turnovers. Feeling good about our chances.

 

[huskerbaseball13]

Really need some production out of McVeigh or the bench in the second half. Need one for McVeigh to go down to get his confidence back.

 

[GBRhuskers]

Missed dunk by Morrow. Missed non-contested bunny by Jacobson but good to see him hit that 10 to 12-footer. Clemson hits a 3 from beyond the NBA line. 7 point difference, dang. Tshimunga with some quality minutes, 3 points & 3 boards, couple altered shots.

Webster isn't seeing our roll guy, it seems like he was there 2 or 3 times for the dish.

McVeigh is definitely in a [road] sophomore slump. We need him to get back on track Saturday in a big way.

Game is spinning so fast in Roby's mind. I was hoping we would get 5-8/game out of him this season. Tonight is a chance for Turner from an offensive physicality standpoint.

It seems like Miles' offense is nothing but ball screens and ISOs. Which is what a lot of NBA teams do...but we don't have NBA talent.

As much as I dislike Creighton, I love the offensive stuff McDermott runs at Creighton. We'll see it next week.

 

[bigboxes]

Morrow looking good!

 

[scarletred]

Red hot this 2nd half....keep it going.

 

[Harry Caray]

Watson is the best player this program has had since T. Lue

 

[RealHusker]

Those 2nd chance 3's that Clemson keeps hitting are a little annoying.

 

[kaz36]

Clemson starting to feel it from 3. That scares me.

 

[RealHusker]

I think we already saw this game on Sunday against VaTech.

 

[GBRhuskers]

Clemson now Wisconsin? All kinds of bodies on Watson, let them play. Body Clemson, immediate whistle.

 

[Harry Caray]

Why won't Miles ever play Tshimanga in the 2nd half? He's done some good things inside. Taylor and Roby have been liabilities.

 

[bigboxes]

Morrow with the dunk!

 

[kaz36]

I'm sorry, but that's a horrible charge call on Jacobsen.

 

[RealHusker]

This one in serious danger of slipping away.

 

[bigboxes]

I'm sorry, but that's a horrible charge call on Jacobsen.

Agreed. Jacobsen changed direction. Blocking.

 

[regionsdoc]

Agreed. Jacobsen changed direction. Blocking.

Some bad calls against big red, but as previously stated, not sure what our offensive identity is. Set plays look like something a high school team would run.

 

[kaz36]

Geezus. The foul discrepancy is a little embarrassing. NU has 17 fouls and Clemson 6. NU has shot 3 free throws and Clemson 16.

 

[Harry Caray]

The famous Doc Sadler scoring drought has returned

 

[RealHusker]

Nice job by NU to keep this within reach when it looked like it was getting away from them.

Now...FINISH!

 

[RealHusker]

Ugh...yet another 2nd chance 3 from Clemson

 

[Tuco Salamanca]

The ref from the parking lot calls the charge on DJitte. Ha ha I'll take it

 

[scarletred]

Going to be tough to win this game when we can't get to the strip and Clemson been there all night.

 

[kaz36]

Geezus, I thought that announcer was going to piss himself when Clemson made that three.
