Rare Courbet sighting.

These missed threes are killing me

Same. Some real wide open looks that would really help us out here.

[kochrab]

Not a great closeout to the half. We missed way too many open shots and made some bad turnovers in the last 2 mins. Gotta come out of halftime with a gameplan on how to keep getting to the bucket and making some high-percentage shots.

[GarretW1797]

Only down 1 but my mood watching feels like we're down double digits. Strong start negated by way too many missed open threes. To have any chance, even with how solid our defense has been, these guys have to hit at least the wide open ones or this could get out of hand.

[kochrab]

On the positive side, our defense has played well for 20 mins. We're probably fouling a little bit more than we'd probably like, but going up against 7+ foot tall players will draw some of that.

[CletusCat]

This is a winnable game if we can keep ourselves out of foul trouble in the second half.

I missed the first seven minutes. We must have actually been making shots then.

We did make some, especially in those first 7 minutes. Really cooled off in the last 10 mins.

[kochrab]

Not a bad start to the 2nd half. Definitely finding a little bit more offense from inside. Getting Bond going here would be huge. I also wouldn't be opposed to seeing more Geon, his defensive pressure is crazy good.

[kochrab]

The missed bunny plague has bitten us in this game.

Wouldn't it be nice to make free throws like the Gaels?

A productive Diouf is so helpful for this team. Any positive support Will can get is great for us.

He’s been huge this game

Their big guy has such a smooth shot with his free throws.

[kochrab]

Diouf with a HUGE three.
