Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

Michigan is tough, but need to turn it around at some point..

Oregon trailing only by 5 at halftime after getting down by as much as 10. Some hot shooting from Shelstad, Bittle, and Barthelemy really helped.

Ducks trying to get back in it and refs call an egregious flagrant 1 on Angel for obvious incidental contact on a rebound. Michigan’s size has been an issue.

Honestly we are playing better, but Michigan is just a bit better.

If we could cut our turnovers in half, this would be a close game. (Although same could be said about Michigan blowing us out with half as many turnovers lol)

Yeah that was trash, but like you noted, they've been doing it all game without the refs help either.

Michigan has definitely shot lights out. Having a 7 footer hit a step back 3 as the shot clock expired was brutal. I just get frustrated with the amount of flagrants called on innocuous basketball plays.

ya it is frustrating.

If Ducks can keep forcing turnovers and get a little bit at the end of this game, there’s a chance…

Man we missed like 4 open threes in a row. Get a couple of those to fall and we’d b leading.

This might be our most stressful game yet cuz Michigan is inviting us to pull off this upset, and we just aren’t capitalizing. Yet!

Oregon had multiple chances to tie or take the lead late and couldn't get it done. They can't keep getting themselves down by double digits like this. Not going to get any easier with Michigan State up next.

Couldn’t watch the game cause of the stupid 3:30 start time but sounds like ducks played much better which is exciting! The players only meeting must’ve helped.

Points off turnovers; Michigan +12 (25 to 13)
Free throws; Michigan +8 (17 to 9)

Hard to come from behind when you miss all your shots in the last 2 minutes, including the front end of a 1 & 1. The chance to tie went away when a pass from Shelstad to Bittle ended up with Altman. All game, Michigan did everything better, executing and hustle, yet the Ducks were still in it to the end.

Ducks are cooked. Michigan turned the rock over constantly down the stretch, inviting the Ducks to win. Ducks just can’t shoot the ball with any consistency. Four game losing streak about to balloon to five. Dana’s late season magic isn’t happening this year.

Yup this is one we totally should have had!

I will say though, we looked like a real team again though. Especially in the 2nd half. Best we’ve looked in like 5-6 games.

I never dreamed a month ago that I would be spending my time on the Blazer sites.
