Long n Left Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 BIG four games to end the season. If Terps cans win 3 of 4, they’ll ice the regular season title, and likely a 2 seed. If they go on and win the tournament as well, they’ll quite possibly get a 1 seed. Gotta win tonight. Easiest of the four games left, IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long n Left Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) Wow, B1G officiating, WOW! Gophers with an unconscious start. Is this another late season Turge swoon? Edited February 27, 2020 by Long n Left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdcskins Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Unfortunately missing the game tonight. Looks like I'm not missing much. Guard the three ball for the love of god. Easier said than done, but get out on the damn shooters and make them dribble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long n Left Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) Cowan with a poor game, and Smith out for so much time is recipe for an L. Makes Saturday’s game massive. Oh my ****ing god what a come back and shot by Morsell! Edited February 27, 2020 by Long n Left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redskin4ever Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) Huge shot by Morsell. Just huge. I was not happy for most of the game, but what I liked was that on a night when nothing went right, they showed resiliency and won. Minnesota couldn't miss early on. Maryland couldn't shoot most of the night and early on missed a ton of shots right around the basket. The refs were atrocious in the first half. It was probably the worst half of basketball they played all year. Yet they fought and fought the whole game. You can't control when some guy on the other team makes 3s when that's not his thing. You can't control when the other team can't miss. You certainly can't control the officiating, even more so when it's terrible. But you can control how you play. I'm always impressed with teams that fight through all that stuff and win. It would have been easy for them to just throw in the towel and blame the refs or just say it's Minnesota's night. But they didn't. They gave it all they had until the final buzzer. I'm still too wired to sleep.

abdcskins Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Watched the second half. One thing I absolutely love is seeing is the bench excited. Cheering and encouraging their teammates on the floor. Love that. With about 8 minutes left in the game, there were some huge steals by Morsell and Wiggins that led to dunks. Great defense leads to offense. That's the staple of this team imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play great D, and out tough, and out will the opposition. They are taking on the character and disposition of their leaders, Cowan, Morsell, and Stix. Shout out to Wiggins, who had a really good game off the bench, and hit the non-Morsell shot of the game, the 3 from up top that cut the 8 point lead to 5 with 1:59 left. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBash Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Gotta win two to get the top seed in the B10 tourney. I expect either Penn St (Albert unlikely) or Wisconsin (more likely) to win out. Wisconsin has been rolling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdcskins Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Sloppy end to the half. Complete lack of defense by Cowan giving Winston an open 60 foot shot, which he drains 😵 Questionable traveling call the play before. Terps aren't getting any good shots. Playing lazy.

TradeTheBeal! Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 State playing with a chip on their shoulder. Maryland has to match the intensity. They can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redskin4ever Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Izzo took Turgeon to school to start the game. It was a great rally in the middle of the half, but Michigan St just looks like they wanted it more that half. @abdcskins, I was telling my wife the same thing on that shot by Winston. All Cowan has to do is just stay in front of him to make that shot a little difficult. It’s not a jump shot where he can adjust and make it over good defense. It’s a heave. Cowan just stood there and watched him take a good run at it like it was the halftime shot by a fan. Just stay in front of him there. What else do you have to do on that play.

Long n Left Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) Got what they deserved that half. Too many mistakes. Cowan with another stinker, Morsell with a number of bone headed plays, and Ayala and Wiggins can’t hit anything. Surprised they’re only down 11. Terps gotta tighten up their defense, and either switch on those screens, or get their rotations right when they want to fight over and help. Can’t keep having these bad starts, and make big comebacks, gonna catch up to you eventually. Especially against well coached teams like MSU. Transition defense just horrible. That is effort, and the Terps aren’t giving enough. Edited March 1, 2020 by Long n Left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
