Purdue Basketball: I Can’t Watch This Game – Seriously
Drew thinks this game deserves better than a hotel ballroom and slick court.
I am, but it’s not the big game yips making my stomach churn.
I didn’t enjoy a single moment of last night’s game, and I’m not going to ruin my Friday night watching Purdue play Texas Tech tonight. I know those are bold words from someone who manages a Purdue blog, but let me explain.
Memphis didn’t come out to play basketball; they came out to make it impossible for Purdue to play basketball. That’s going to happen in most games. Purdue’s the most skilled team in the nation. If you play basketball with them, you will lose 95% of the time. Penny Hardaway knew that if this game came down to which team was better at dribbling, passing, shooting, rebounding, defending, and teamwork, his team would get run out of the ballroom. Memphis managed to make the game about something other than basketball, and it kept them close. Granted, I’m fine if I never have the opportunity to watch Aaron Bradshaw insult the game of basketball and anyone who has ever coached him, again, but Purdue is going to need to get accustomed to teams trying to rough them up.
