Butler-NU official second-half thread

Scottie Lindsey may be the most improved player this year. He's just a different player, playing with much more confidence and looking for his shot. NU needs him to step up and be a scoring option this year, and he looks ready for the challenge.
B Mac has been pretty quiet tonight. NU is going to need him down the stretch to pull this one out.
Ok. Honestly, I REALLY like what I'm seeing here.
(They'll clean up on giving up the offensive boards. That's way more team than it is individual. It can be fixed with practice and getting to know each other.)
But I really like the speed and the movement and the aggressiveness and the team defense I'm seeing. And Law's shot looks like melted butter.
This is looking damn good to me. Damn good.

I'll echo that. Yes, he will make freshman mistakes, but you gotta love his swagger. The kid is fearless.
This team just cannot win a big game! I look for them to lose twice in New York. Not big or tough enough underneath and McIntosh looked a step slow for a lot of this game. They are improved, but....
Heartbreaking, as usual. I mean when will this team learn to win close ones?! On the plus side, we're a good team. Better than I thought we would be this year.
We're not a good team until we win those games. Losing a bunch of close games doesn't mean a thing.
Horrible decision making by McIntosh 4 out of 5 times you drove towards the basket and got in trouble
I'm getting really tired of this act. We don't know how to win against a good team. In the first half, we got owned on the offensive boards and gave away three or four baskets on steals (while we had none). Then in the final minutes, McIntosh dominates the ball, gets double teamed and we turn it over. Kind of like the Maryland meltdowns the last two seasons They are competitive, I'll give them that, but, in the end, it's just another discouraging loss.
Catreporter, this is not a better Butler team, it is very average this year and will really struggle to get in the NCAA this year. Butler is a team that Nortwestern should have beat by at least 10 points.
C'mon. Demps won games. Yes.
But he played to his own scoreboard. There's only one scoreboard.
Behind the back in traffic with arms on all sides?
You guys all know that if Demps or Sobo had pulled that hotdog crap in traffic like that, I'd go on an hour+ tirade over it.
That was a TERRIBLE play by BMac. One strike.
Vic Law is a superb player and will be a pro player McIntosh is a pretender he drove their basket twice and messed up there
Jordan Ash is an unselfish player and is pretty fast I would have put him in there or brown Macintosh blew that game
Late in the game 4 out of five times McIntosh press the issue and press the dribble towards the basket
