Where did our rebounding go in the first half? At one point during that run, Memphis was 72.7% on the OFFENSIVE boards. 70% shooting and 70%+ rebounding on both ends … that tends to end very, very badly for whoever you’re playing.

Don’t give up the ship, boys. Crazier things have happened.

Damn, do I hate Memphis.

I’m excited for tonight’s game, but MSU’s propensity for turning it over scares the daylights out of me, especially considering Memphis likes to pressure the ball. If State turns it over 12-15 times in the first like against Purdue or IU, they’ll get blown out of the building.

Beyond that, I think it will be a huge challenge for the Memphis bigs to keep up with Izzo’s screen and rolls and cuts to the basket. The more we get them thinking about that stuff, the less effective I think they’ll be on the o-glass.

Go Green

Kick some butt tonight Spartans! I’m cutting out of work now because I can’t wait for these two games to begin. A quick observation from Hoopraker: I don’t think Dorsey or Dozier will be ready for the crafty and effective set plays the Spartans run for Naymick and Suton, two guys who routinely knock down the 12-15 footer. Play defense, attack the rim and take care of the rock! Let’s go Spartans!

Well, I am shaking with excitement at this point. I’m just glad I only have to wait 12 hours from wake time to game time being here in the west coast instead of the 15 it would have been in Michigan. There’s a measure of my excitement.
