Wisconsin KOs No. 6 Michigan from Big Ten updated 5:58 p.m. CHICAGO - Wisconsin just kept missing. The Badgers were icy cold from long range, simple layups a risky proposition. And they only trailed by three at the break. When Ben Brust and Co. finally found their stroke, it was all over for Michigan. Brust scored 11 of his 14 points in the second half and No. 22 Wisconsin knocked off the sixth-ranked Wolverines 68-59 in the second round of the Big Ten tournament on Friday. "Just a great team effort," coach Bo Ryan said. Guys picked each other up. They didn't get frustrated when the shots weren't going down in the first half. We took care of that in the second half, and continued to hustle on defense. Ryan Evans added 12 points, six rebounds and six assists. "It's the old cliche, defense wins championships," Evans said. We understand that here. Anything we can do to slow those guys down and get our shots will move us forward. Tim Hardaway Jr. shook off an ankle injury in the first half and finished with 14 points and nine boards. "We had some chances to take the game back over and get back in front and we just couldn't do it," coach John Beilein said. A lot of that has to do with how we develop as a team and a lot has to do with how talented a team Wisconsin really is. Wisconsin warmed up in the second half, putting together a 10-0 run to take a 29-24 lead with 15:09 to go. "We wanted to go inside out, and that's how we started the half," Evans said. I started with a bucket, and they had to collapse. Then our 3-pointers, Mike and Ben - it was good to see Mike get going today. The Wolverines put together a 9-0 run to get within 56-54, but Kaminsky made a pull-up jumper as the final seconds of the shot clock ticked off. Bruesewitz, Berggren and Kaminsky had eight points apiece for the Badgers, who made 16 of 21 foul shots. Michigan got a scare midway through the first half when Hardaway twisted his left ankle when he got his foot caught under Bruesewitz after he attempted a floater in the lane. He had to be helped to the locker room, but he returned a couple minutes later, earning a round of applause from the sellout crowd. "It was hurting for a little bit when I came back out, but it loosened up while I was playing on it and it got better while the game was going on," he said. The Badgers bounced back, shooting 60.7 percent in the second half, compared to 46.4 percent for the Wolverines. "I think we've got a really talented group of guys, and when we come together, we can beat anybody," Jackson said.
