Looks like Wisconsin is going to put away Purdue.
Nice to see them overcome a first half shooting slump and play solid defense by crowding the paint. Still fear Bo allowing Jackson to dance around for 20 seconds and chuck up garbage at the end of a game in the tournament which will lead to our ultimate demise. Also, still not certain that Bo will start utilizing more drives to the hoop or post up's if our shot is off. Keep up the solid unflagging vie for victories but subtle augmentation are necessary for this team to go the distance. I am enjoying this season more than any other over the past decade and a half.
Some of that is on the players too, I love seeing Josh Gasser attack the basket. I love seeing Trae Jackson and everyone attack the basket. If this team falls into a trap of shooting a lot of 3's, it could be our tournament demise. I'd love to see Nigel Hayes pick it back up, and contribute more than he has the last 2 games.
I like that the defense has gotten better. It's not where it has been in years past, but it's getting much better. Nigel and Frank are doing a bit better with post defense. We still don't consistently finish defensive possessions after 1 shot, but I like where it's come from.
That Duke game should be a good one. We'll find out early if those recruits Duke got are all that or not...
