This was a really fun game. Tbh, I should be more mad as Michigan fan that it was so close, but we need our heart to race every once in a while. Especially to an unexpected foe. Great game. Bates is elite.
This is exactly what Michigan needed and honestly I’m not shocked at how it went! This was such a trap game. Bates, love the kids game, has been through a lot. Finally finds a home and this is his first game against a team and he did exactly what I thought he would do! People need to remember, kid has been the best player for this generation of hoppers. He’s more highly recruited than prolly everyone of our players lol, but it’ll be like that for every team he plays against! Happy for him, happy Michigan got the dub
Michigan escaped with the win. Eastern gave Michigan everything it could handle and then some. Hopefully this is a sign of how good Eastern is and not how bad Michigan's defense is. GREAT GAME
Average big ain’t stopping Dickinson. I know the NBA is a wing game now but that no one has enough imagination to add a big with that kind of size and touch is frankly symptomatic of group think. It truly is a copycat game now
I've had season tickets to emu men's basketball for 7 years, and each year I go to every home game, I moved to Ky this summer, so it's sad how I can't go to anymore games, but anyway, I've been patiently waiting for this team to become good and be able to play a good game against a BIG 10 team. I'm just saying if we had an actual center and some forwards we'd be a team you wouldn't want to mess with.
Emoni wouldn't have worked in Ann Arbor. I watched the game and yes he's talented however also EXTREMELY cocky. He wasn't so cocky in Memphis though. That says a lot about character. He got humbled a couple times by Bufkin with a block and a steal on him. Bufkin wasn't cocky about it and Emoni wasn't so cocky then. Eastern will do well in the MAC however its the MAC. Ya don't want to be the Antonio Brown of college basketball. Remember who started the trend of handing the football to the refs after a play? It was a very talented but humble Barry Sanders.
@@DeathNote_96 him not being able to go to his right and shoot with his right is why he is not in the nba right now. He has never developed that skill level. Everything is always going left shooting with the left hand. Occasionally he will take a few steps right but he always goes back to the left to shoot with the left.
Probably the most undisciplined, sloppy effort I've seen out of a UM team since pre-Beilein. Head scratching decision-making offensively, poor perimeter D, horrible FT shooting. Proud of the fight and resolve to finish the deal by our guys though. Only can get better from here! Keep improving one day at a time. Go Blue!
@@nigel2123 he not a good defender he is a volume shooter , he is not that physically strong not that Athletic He don’t make people around him better really just a score and really don’t do that at a high level he has a lot of work to do
@@nigel2123 do you see him dominating the ball in the NBA and taking most of the shots in a franchise giving him the keys 🔑 to just jake up shoots I don’t see that at all
@@releasethestress1825 bro that Imani bates kid go crazy, it was nice as an MSU fan to see that kid shred Michigan's defense. Michigan schedule this year kinda soft
just got home from this game it was incredible. Without Dickinson Michigan would’ve been toast. Bated was just a show.

Bates only 18 dropping 30 on a top 25 while battling back & forth. Impressive. I'm going to be checking for EMU.

Eastern played really well - very impressive!

Dickinson and Terrance really stepped up big to help Michigan outlast eastern. Go Blue!!!
If eastern Michigan had true big men, this would have been a complete different story
Average big ain’t stopping Dickinson. I know the NBA is a wing game now but that no one has enough imagination to add a big with that kind of size and touch is frankly symptomatic of group think. It truly is a copycat game now
Also, Emoni ain’t gone shoot like that every night.
If I bought that mega million ticket from the store in LA, I could have won the lottery.
And if there wasn't rain in the forecast today,
I would've taken my kids to Six Flags!
And if it weren’t for typical midwestern weather in November Ohio State wouldn’t struggle to beat Northwestern

Eastern Michigan the real deal.
UM fan here, they look like the faves to win the mac fs. Lot of transfer talent.
Dickinson is unstoppable. Go Blue〽️
Eastern vs the refs 🥱
Both teams played hard and UM came out on top. Don't blame the refs.
He was playing against guards if he play against another true big man, he look regular
@@CaliKidd1001 he averaged 20 and 10 in the Big Ten last year 😅
Go Blue!!!
Bro that screen by Dickinson towards the end of the game was crazy dude fell and everything
Another year without a point guard for Michigan.. we are going to struggle
This was a great a matchup but good win Michigan
Is it crazy to say emu gets into the tourney as a massive underdog/sleeper
Not at all i think this too
EMU will not be a "sleeper." With this game, and with Bates and Farrakhan, teams will scout them out. But they better scout them out!
Wow guys... This against eastern?
This win may look good come March.
Eastern Michigan was better at basketball. Michigan was just bigger
Emoni gotta take BETTER shots and drive more he playing like how a 6’2 player play. I feel like Mikey and Emoji should switch play styles🤝🏾🤣
man he played great in this game quit watching highlights on buddy.
he’s incapable of driving to the rim through contact dude is 6’10 and weighs less than kyle lowry who’s 10 inches shorter than him lmao.
He dropped 30 shooting 70% from the floor. Stop it

Bates has Noooooo
Hopps. 😂
Michigan fan here. Bates Is unbelievable. But Dickinson is unstoppable. Mannnn we needed him this year. Better enjoy it he’s gonna go pro
He is stoppable you force him to go to his right and shoot with his right hand. He hates doing that.
He is stoppable. Just don’t let him in the paint, all dude does is layups 🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
eastern couldn't 😏

He’s really not all that a lot of the bugs from the high level schools will shut him down. He has no perimeter game
I hope juwan starts to coach some sort of defense.
How old is Hunter...I'll wait lmao 🤣🤣
21 years old. Nice try.
What are you even trying to get at? He’s a junior 😆
@@janetpartyka5968 it's the beginning of the season and he will be 22 is less than two weeks...
@@natwan32 he's a old junior by college basketball standards...
@@PhillyDomSideDude so what? 😆 does it make a difference if he’s 21 22? Drew Timme is 22…
Go Blue and great game
Close game but looking at the highlights you’d think Michigan won 80-10
Bates & Noah
Moni is HIM frfr🥷🏽
Let’s stay unranked until March we always do better as the under dog. Go blue
I'm just not impressed with Bates.
Bates game won’t transfer to the pros he needs to mature more
sound dumb
We said the same about trae young. He’ll learn
@@StreetsMyth who is we trae young was always a good playmaker and shooter what emoni does that’s elite……???
Prayers for Bates.
That’s cap many players play like that in the league stop lmao
Michigan is wayyyyyy overated
Shame Bates is a head case!

Definitely a lot to improve upon but also give eastern credit. That is probably the best team in their program's history.
I’m still not impressed with bates in the nba he will just be a role player
he 18 years old u sound slow
@@nigel2123 age has nothing to do with the holes in his game at 18 was lebron , kd , Zion , ready 🤔 should I go on

Michigan looks soft this year. Probably the start of their losing years .
As Umich bball is falling off their football is rising
Refs tried. Anyone see how the refs crushed Michigan st lol shows what they do each year for Alabama
Michigan isn’t that talented to me this year. Or Eastern is just that good? Not sure but time will tell. 😊
I will be surprised if Bates makes it through the season without another incidence. Dude is a punk.
Go back to 3rd grade and learn proper grammar.
Bro you coulda kept that statement to yourself . It’s always one of you ppl
Sound like a hater
He's not NBA material at all. No chance.
@@montrellbradshaw1399 the haters are gonna hate. Praying for a kid's downfall....bad look
Michigan is so overrated 😂 Eastern had the lead until 3 minutes left in the game. EASTERN.
Emoni bates so overrated
This is going to be a quality win as the season goes on.. Eastern Michigan will be ranked in no time
Michigan is overrated
Fr, barely can beat an unranked team… Can’t wait to see them get smoked by MSU
Must be a salty msu fan.
Besides Dickinson they have nobody else
Poor sparty, football season isn't over.
Well it is for sparty and the band of thugs
@Phillycorndogg What is MSU gonna do? Jump a lone Wolverine in the locker room and have half the team suspended like some punks and thugs
Only won by 4 to EMU....😬🤨 doesn't sound like a 22 ranked team to me....
Maybe EMU is good
Or maybe they have a top 5 player in his class in Bates who went off!
@@releasethestress1825 was a top 5 player
@@releasethestress1825 bro that Imani bates kid go crazy, it was nice as an MSU fan to see that kid shred Michigan's defense. Michigan schedule this year kinda soft
@@alexnowicki286 he’s still in that class 😂 he still a top player Just had off the court issues that doesn’t take from his game
