You guys realize that if we change the outcome of 2 specific shots this season, we'd be the B1G champions and in contention for a #1 overall seed, right? And that this is still the same team that started the year 20-1? Yeah the team is spotty and inconsistent, but it's also capable of greatness. We have as much talent in anyone in the country. Nothing is guaranteed, and obviously 3 seeds lose early all the time, but pretending like we "can't" go on a run and saying things like you're not even going to bother watching the tournament, or that you "hate" this team, is simply ridiculous. Amazing how quickly fans can get spoiled. A lot of you are 10-20 years older than me and actually attended Michigan when the basketball teams were *actually* bad and no one gave two shits about them even in Ann Arbor...and now you're whining about this team? Puh-lease.

Style of play imo.
Wisconsin has bigs that can come out to the perimeter and shoot 3s. That's the type of versatility that makes Wisky difficult to defend. Morgan isn't suited to contest those perimeter shots because he'st not as tall as Horford and McGary.
(Sidenote: Mark Donnal is similar to Wisconsin's bigs in that he can play in the post and shoot from the perimeter. I'm excited to see him play for us.)

lol I'm not missing any points. I also think Morgan has had a terrible last few games. But that's due to a lack of confidence. I know who he is as a player.
I won't however go as far as calling him a "big for nothing pussy." That's my point. There's no need to take it to that level especially when, like I said, you'd never dream of saying this to his face.

if a foul was called when Craft got raped and if Harris didnt throw the ball away for MSU that could be two losses. I't can go both ways. Look I'm not calling you out for being super optimistic. sure I'm happy this team isn't the worst in the big ten anymore. I expect that though and expect them to great.

These are all really fair points. It does go both ways and when you have a preseason top 5 team who starts off 18-0 you'll have high expectations. I think we all just forgot this is a young team playing in the toughest, and probably best conference in America.

That's why I hate these threads after a loss. To say definitively that this team won't make the sweet 16 without even seeing who we'll draw is crazy. However I am surprised to see how fast people have turned on Beilein.
Now Jordan Morgan, he deserves plenty of blame. Wisconsin doesn't score all those points in the paint if he's on the floor. Unfortunately, catching the ball and making lay ups are holding him back right now. And that's a serious statement.
MSU isn't a very good football program.. takes year of consistent winning to get to that level. - copemoney 1/22/13
