I don’t know but let’s hope those idiots keep him on the bench. Kid can play.

I'd have preferred to be up by 17, but maybe that mini-run by LSU to cut it to 12 will keep us focused. Still a lot of work to do.

That half was a lot of fun. Was in the car and couldn’t stand to listen to Willy T., so I went with the Westwood One broadcast on SiriusXM. Not sure who the announcers were, although the color commentator might’ve been John Thompson. Regardless, the really seemed to be pro-LSU and were definitely shocked that MSU was doing to LSU what they thought LSU would do to MSU. I’m convinced they did no homework in advance of this game, because they were completely unfamiliar with what the good guys were doing.

In LSU's defense, they figure if Izzo hates Henry he's not worth guarding.

Yeah, thinking LSU makes a run. MSU is scoring points, but would like to see Ward, McQuaid, or Goins pitch in some more points.

by **steveschneider** 2019-03-29, 20:16

LSU did most of their damage with Xavier on the bench and Ward missing his shots in the post. With Henry and Xavier on the floor I think we go on a run again.

Excellent. Excellent.

I suspect we're going to see a lot of hero ball with Waters in the second half. High ball screen and let him go. Not sure who can check him. Might have to try Henry on him.

by **steveschneider** 2019-03-29, 20:20

I’m firing up.

by **kingstonlake** 2019-03-29, 20:21

Get to 70. Win.

This seems pretty likely.

What WBH said.

Uh oh.

LSU turning up the heat on D

Now the whistles come out. Where was that shit in the first half?

by **steveschneider** 2019-03-29, 20:30

Gabe Brown is shooting the lights out.

by **Nordic** 2019-03-29, 20:31

by **InTenSity** 2019-03-29, 20:31

That was a shitty run.

by **Nordic** 2019-03-29, 20:31

This is a different level they aren't used to

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** 2019-03-29, 20:31

Fuck yes. Kenny!!

by **The Pantry** 2019-03-29, 20:32

Surprised Izzo didn't call a TO and let them play through.

by **Floyd Robertson** 2019-03-29, 20:32

Go-ins!!!

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** 2019-03-29, 20:32

I think keep Henry on Waters. Give him a step and let 11s length bother him if he wants to step back and shoot. That's better than letting him into the lane.

by **steveschneider** 2019-03-29, 20:34

The frosh are putting up some incredible minutes.

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** 2019-03-29, 20:36

I love that Gabe has zero conscience.

by **steveschneider** 2019-03-29, 20:37

That cut by Brown was amazing.

by **Watch Out Pylon!** 2019-03-29, 20:37

Didn't we just have the under 16 time out?

by **MiamiSpartan** 2019-03-29, 20:38

That one LSU dude has the most awkward looking hook shot. Almost like a quasi shot put or something. Looks like he's throwing up a prayer but he's made a couple of them.

Thinking the same. Not that McQuaid is in now anyway, but he was too quick for Quaido.

Cash is doing a little better in him than he was in the first half.

Hatch, they could put you on him and Izzo is script up a stopper

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** 2019-03-29, 20:45

They took Waters out again

by **steveschneider** 2019-03-29, 20:47

WARD!!

by **steveschneider** 2019-03-29, 20:47

I’m going to the Brown/Bingham freak out move here in a moment.

by **steveschneider** 2019-03-29, 20:51

Downtown Gabe Brown with the big bad rebound!!!
