We are competing. Hurt by the usual things - porous D and foolish decisions. Clingan and Johnson both out helped us hang in there. But will have to execute and defend much better in the second half to keep this a game.

 

[Larry Wright]

Think it was just on his fingertips unfortunately

Didn’t help had Hurley whining on their face

 

[paultzman]

Newton noted “they pressed & struggled to get back” So true

 

[NCJohnnie]

Halftime stats really close except for FG%

 

[guinness77]

Honestly, we’d be winning, possibly killing, any other team. They’re good despite their coach being a class A douchebag.

 

[Amaseinyourface]

It was clearly not out of his hand in time. Just a bad break. Good half, let’s fvckin give it to these cocky pieces of S this next half.

 

[vegasman2000]

We could either be up a little or down 15 the way that half went. Down 5 ain't too bad.

 

[ptc666]

Not bad. Down 5 and they are shooting lights out. We get the ball to start. Get the momentum swinging out of the gate.

 

[Mean Gene]

I just pray we keep this close.

 

[MugCostanza]

Win or lose our guys are giving it everything they got despite the lapses on defense. It's the second half when UConn has opened it up on Pitino lately (NCAA Tourney last year vs Iona, MSG game this year).

Unfortunately we'll be seeing a lot more of Clingan in 2nd half. We were able to scrap our way back into it when he was out.

Keep playing hard and just try to keep it somewhat close. These guys have become very fun and easy to root for

 

[sjc88]

Stat of the day, 3 starters Taylor, Soriano, Ledlum combined for, wait for it 2 points! We are ONLY down 5. That is amazing.

[paultzman]

Love the grit, but our Achilles heel all yr has been inability to get back on D & that is lethal w this guard oriented bunch

 

[redmen89]

surprised we were able to keep it close

 

[guinness77]

Get it within 5 at halftime. That’s it.

This right here. Game is still there for us completely.

 

[Alumni Hall]

Jenkins has definitely positioned himself as one of our top 5 All Time shooters! Wish we had him 4 yrs

 

[espken]

Newton noted “they pressed & struggled to get back” So true

Unfortunately an issue all season.

 

[carmineabbatiello]

Bullshite. That's not enough evidence to overturn. It was off his palm but near his fingers.

 

[Alumni Hall]

Who was the guy in the red plaid jacket sitting court side who security had to speak to earlier?

 

[paultzman]

Taylor back to his invisible offensive self

You need a road map for right threads?
