I thought the only adjustment was getting the home whistles.

MSU was up 50-41 with 13 min left. Underwood gets a T.  MSU is then whistled for 9 straight fouls.  That’s kind of blatant.  I didn’t think MSU deserved to win the game. If you go 0-7 on 3s it’s likely you’ll never win.

Team is far better with Epps in there than Clark.  There’s been far fewer turnovers the last 3 games

Lol. Maybe Karen can buy you a tv from Goodwill so you can watch the games and not have such awful takes.

This is the first time Dainja has impressed me on the offensive end.  MSU is always tough inside, and Dainja put together a nice game.

He had 13 going 6-6 from the floor vs UCLA but yep, yesterday was his best game vs a power 5 school. 20 pts, 7 rebounds and 0 fouls. He picked up most of his rebounds late, but if he can work on his rebounding game .....

He is very very unique post with ball skills. Looks like he is gaining confidence.
Will be interesting to see how he matches up with Rutgers, Purdue, and UM inside.

I was unable to watch the UCLA game. 

His hand eye coordination doesn't seem good, but Dainja's huge and talented.  Hoping last night gives him confidence.

Dainja will struggle vs taller players bc he has no lift.  Maybe he can be Shaun Pruitt at best.

I might have a different take on the eye hand coordination thing, but maybe we are talking different things here.
His quickness, good feet, passing, ability to dribble to a spot under control (within limits), spin moves, reverse layups, and ability to shoot with either hand seem pretty decent for his size.
A lot of Trevion Williams in his game. Maybe he will get to that level down the road.

I don't watch every game, but he seems to struggle with catching the ball.  Of course, I wouldn't call this a good passing team, so that doesn't help.

He looked good, but there was one sequence where he either lost his man on defense or failed to help, and then he was way out of position on the boards.

Is there a reason you are a perpetual asshole?
...............Didn't think so.

Wasn't even talking to you, windbag. Don't you have some meaningless post-game posts to craft? At least one person here hangs on every word of your analysis.

Occasionally your take on things borders on Dom prickiness. This one is beyond the pale. Did we ever figure out you name? 

IV = 4? Intravenous?

MP = military police? methylprednisolone?

There are a few people here who have interesting takes on various topics. Others are funny. That does not mean anyone hangs on every word.

Said it after the UCLA game. He's legit. Dain is quite nimble with solid footwork and good handles for a big guy. He's a little wild at times but with this being basically his freshman year I can live with the growing pains. Wish we'd run more actions with him because I feel we operate at our best when he gets a post touch or two per possession.

His battles with Kofi in practice have paid dividends.
