Hunter & Eli + The New Fab Five...Juwan Presents: 2021-2022 Michigan Wolverines Basketball Thread

[intra vires]

It could be worse, but outside of Hunter and Frankie this is a poor showing.

Hunter needs to finish this game with around 30 points, the more the better. The best way to do that is to replace Moussa with T-Will in the lineup. My not saying fully cut his minutes, but with Jones out we need better passers, with Frankie in we need better shooters and T-Will is like a 40% 3pt shooter. He also allows Hunter to operate in the low post, Hunter plays a lot of high post when he's on the floor with Moussa.

Hunter and Eli today. Caleb made some big shots. Frankie Collins grew up today

Tennessee is going to be tough on Saturday.

 

[intra vires]

Great come from behind win after an abysmal start. Hopefully Longwood manages to win (they won't) so things can be interesting, Michigan doesn't matchup well with Tennessee at all.

Ended up making the short trip to Indy for the game yesterday, had a great time. It was looking rough the first half but they got it together. Tennessee is gonna be tough.

Do you guys give us much of a chance against Tennessee

They are very impressive and when they are hitting shots, they are very hard to beat. Their go to plays seems to be chandler who is very quick driving and kicking it out to vescovi for shots. They don't have big guards but they play smart and hard.

All year michigan gets off to these slow starts, they have to keep their hands up at all times on defense and drive them off the three point shot, I think chandler can get past jones BUT everyone needs to stay home on defense. And offense run the offense thru hunter because hes an excellent passer off a double team.

I don't think Eli can play 40 minutes again and Bufkin even though he's a freshman, he's clearly not ready for this stage. We fell behind so bad early that Howard had to shorten his bench. I think williams needs more minutes.

We are heavy underdogs. We need our 3 point shooting to be on point for any hope.

I'm not to be completely honest.

Michigan is going to have to play consistent all game to win, Tennessee good basketball team that doesn't really give up leads. Frankie needs to get a lot of run because, assuming he plays, Devante will be rusty (didn't play well against Indiana anyway) and I don't think he has the athleticism to match-up with their guards.

Bufkin and Williams will both need more minutes. I'm not writing Kobe off just yet, hopefully the opening game jitters are gone because they'll really need him vs Tennessee's guards.

 

[NigerianDonDada]

Worried about DeVante Jones this game. His perimeter defense is terrible especially against Tenn fast guards. I hope Juwan doesn't stay with him too long if he's struggling early.

 

[Rell]

Great start so far!

 

[heart]

Without the turnovers. Michigan would be up 10. They are doing well on Tennessee’s shooters so far. Concussion or not Tennessee guards are too fast for Jones on defense and offense.

Michigan has to slow it down in the second half. Hopefully Houstan can get going.

 

[Regular_P]

dikkinson's putting these boys on his back.

 

[NigerianDonDada]

at Houstan. This loss is going to be on him. 0 points so far

 

[Trust Me]

Next year.. we'll have Jett Howard to split time, or shyt ... OVERTAKE Houstan's starting spot. Dude knows we've got NOBODY behind him.

 

[Ohene]

Why don’t nba scouts like dikkinson?
