how does Simons not read the shot clock?

[radiohead]

How is that a 2 shot foul?

[Silas]

26-8 foul shot difference....not right.

[slamtheking]

our offense still stinks this quarter.  no movement.  just guys pounding the ball into the ground outside the 3 point line.

Thank god we are still up 23...

QUETA!

agreed but a big part of it us chucking 3's as opposed to driving to the bucket.  41 3's vs 34 2's

And honestly Reaves has caught us with our hands in the cookie jar way too many times.  It's why we've been able to turn him over some but it's also why he's spent most of the game at the stripe.

with a 20 pt lead at this point, we should win this but if they hadn't screwed around in the 2nd and 3rd quarters Brown and White would have been able to sit out the 4th to get some rest for the next game

This is going to be a challenge for this team, leading by 23 points at halftime they have to forget about the score line and play as if it?s 0?0. Because they don?t wanna lose momentum or intensity or start to play differently because they?re leading by so much. Something for these young players to learn and I?m curious to see how well they learn it.

Well, they definitely lost that quarter, it will be interesting to see if they can hang on. Fakers have nothing to lose and they have the momentum because we switched off defensively and allowed Vincent and reaves to get into a rhythm. Turning the ball over, didn?t help either

Safe to say, they responded pretty well and kept the fakers at Bay

Hugo with a nice cut

I doubt Joe would?ve sat them unless we were leading by 50? He tends to be very dogmatic in his rotations

beautiful drive by Walsh
