Big time swing in the wrong direction after the timeout and our starters came back in.

Like, how do you miss that trip? JB has legit gripes with the refs. Of any star, I'm not sure that there's one that gets a worse whistle.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

EDIT: Nevermind - back on the Fire Joe Train!

It's definitely legit, especially when a player like Bam can get 43 free throw attempts.  And you can't breathe on SGA or its a foul.

not to be a homer but I think JT is a close second

Baylor's emergence has been such a God-send for this team, let alone the Hugo and Walsh minutes, too.

Good half all things considered.  Queta really has to step up if OKC goes small again.  He has to control the glass.

bummed they lost that big lead but in the end they extended the lead from the first quarter going into the half.  great, great effort by everyone who's played.

have to say it's unreal the talent OKC is able to throw on the floor but there's no way they aren't getting a heavily beneficial whistle.

Pritchard might need some stitches at halftime.
Once again, we don't even get into the bonus FT's by the end of the quarter.

We have a three headed monster in Baylor, Hugo, and Jordan. Not to mention Harper too. Love our player development.

Watch for pulled jerseys. ...

They're getting away with murder on defense.
