Why do I get the feeling Brooks will be hot tonight in the Brez for the first time ever.

by **DWags** 2023-11-17, 08:37

No complaints if he does. Good kid, just didn’t click.

by AvgMSUJoe 2023-11-17, 08:56

Hopefully the others get inspired.

Hoggard/Akins drive the freaking lane if the shot still isn't falling. THEN HIT THE FTs.

This team is looking bad so far, too bad. Not sure Izzo can fix them taking the summer off.

What's happening here?

This team could use Pierre Brooks. There, I said it.

Come on. Nobody took the summer off.

First...I was like...who is DWags even talking about?

We could use a 3 point shooter. If he goes off tonight (and we struggle), that will make it more evident.

Maybe not technically, but the sure look like they did.

Maybe the new scoreboard is impacting the team and shooting. Like it's so big that it seems like the sky is falling.

I don’t know shit about shit here but I wonder if this poor shooting becomes psychological after a while?

100% - even in high school... my kid could drain 10-12 in a row during warm ups... maybe 25% wide open in the games (if lucky). Like putting.

Might have to listen to the game outside. Sitting here watching tv waiting for the tip but my dog is carpet-bombing the room. It’s close to being unbearable.

by **DWags** 2023-11-17, 18:39

Lots of empty green seats. Disappointing

Starting to fill. Fashionably late? I didn’t think we were like that.

There was extra traffic tonight since there’s a hockey game, too. Maybe parking was more difficult. It was busy enough on Harrison that I skipped crossing to the other side to walk the dog.

by **tGreenWay** 2023-11-17, 19:16

So the press row scoreboard has been chopped up to make room for a few floor seats. But those who are sitting there are squeezed in real tight. There’s no shoulder room whatsoever. lol

Why no beer in Brez yet?

by AvgMSUJoe 2023-11-17, 19:24

It's Friday. Beers would be nice.

Are you at the game? Ask Izzo.

by **DWags** 2023-11-17, 19:48

FTR Kohler has two tennis shoes on tonight. That’s good.

We’re good again!

Scoreboard does cast a shadow. We overcame it though.

Breslin lighting just isn’t good. The Spartan head either looks black or colorless, depending on the camera angle. The rest of the picture on television looks washed out. It’s been that way for awhile. Good thing we win.

Silver Bells downtown too. But it did fill in.

Got home and re-watched the game.

1. Tech on Brooks was BS

2. Please put Walker in bubble wrap. He is the best player we’ve had in a while.

He was taunting Carr... dunking over him. (And Carr was probably the reason Brooks bolted...) at least that's how I read it at the game.

He was fired up. Everybody in our section was puzzled at the game, that’s why I re-watched it. I hate refs.

He was the enemy last night, Dwags. Where’s your bloodlust? Screw him for taunting our player. Today, all is well, but last night—screw him.

by **Travis of the Cosmos** 2023-11-18, 11:31

Brooks and hog man didn’t seem like they like each other very much in the handshake line

Yeah, I get that, but first it was pretty crappy that our fans were booing him. Why? He also was a young kid letting out a lot of frustration. He came in as Mr. Basketball and just didn’t click here. He dumped over Carr, that’s a big dunk. Kid was fired up. I get is enthusiasm. And when one of our kids gets a technical for making a great Duncan celebrating, I will be just as pissed off. I dumb rule. Kid was capping himself on top the head.

He was barking at the Spartan bench after his first 3 too. almost looked like it was directed at Izzo. If it was it's bullshit because TI gave that kid every chance. I still think Pierre has talent and will do well at Butler but I'm glad which kicked his ass last night.

All good. But booing was no necessary. They started at introductions. I’m sure I’m missing the humor in it. We played well. That’s what counts.

I'd have to rewatch, but I think he said something like...

I DUNKED ON YOUR PUNK ASS HEAD

And it was taunting. So, that's why he got booed.

Akins > Brooks

That's why he left. In my opinion.

by **tGreenWay** 2023-11-18, 16:21

Brooks forced some 3s last night that didn’t fall, which seemed to be a familiar scene from his time here. Still, I hope those shots start dropping and he has a great career with Butler, just never against us.
