Because he tried dunking at the end of the home game vs Iowa...he missed...got laughed at...and has only see 2 min of playing time since...Kelvin was PISSED!

DEFENSE...what's that? How many OPEN 3's did Minn hit? Why did they hit them? Well, lets see...I'm 6'0" and I could shoot over the top of stemler and ellis and they have 7 and 8 inches on me. Why? Because when they close out to contest a 3 ball, they both put their hands in the stomach of the shooter instead of in the shooter's face. Speaking of Stemler, he might be the nicest kid on Earth, but if you are playing man to man defense, I'm pretty sure that implies that you must guard YOUR man, not someone else's. Each 3 that Coleman hit was because stemler was in the lane playing defense...when he was supposed to be guarding Coleman...when he closed out on Coleman, NOT ONCE did he get a hand UP...it was ALWAYS at his stomach.<br><br>2. OFFENSE...true story...my 5 y/o son plays "organized" basketball at the local YMCA. The offense he runs at Y-ball is more complicated than what I watched tonight. That is not a load of bullshit either! They Y-ball philosophy for 5 year olds is something like this...if you get the rebound take it to the other end of the court and shoot it as fast as you can before the other team gets back to play any kind of defense.<br><br>3. Bassett needs to learn how to DUNK the basketball...either that or how to go up strong and draw contact. Don't get me wrong, I love the kid, but I can only watch cupcake basketball for so long....(THIS WAS FOR YOU IRISHP!MP)<br><br>4. Did anyone notice the "mid-range" game that Gordon showed off tonight???? Yes...he shot a 15 footer from the elbow...the best part is....HE MADE IT!!!!<br><br>5. I am really gonna miss DJ!!!!!<br><br>6. Ellis needs to post up more! What a f***ing stud he is...when he's on the block! He's damn near unguardable (not sure if its a word, but who cares)<br><br>7. Take back anything I've ever said about DD being the guy for IU...I changed my mind.<br><br>8. I hope no one has their hopes up after this victory...we still can't play defense, our offense is...is...is....well see #2 above!<br><br>9. If we win two games in the B10 or NCAA's I'll get the IU symbol tatooed on my ass. That's 2 games in the big 10 and 2 games in the NCAA...for a total of 4 wins combined.<br><br>have great evening...and best wishes to DJ the rest of the Seniors! Thanks for the good times! okay…while its fresh in my mind…see if you agree….

I've never thought highly of the BTN but the camerawork for this game is a complete joke. Every half court set there has been a player off the television screen who gets the ball and the camera doesn't adjust. It's not innovation, it's bush league. WTF?
