MBB Final: Louisiana 77, UTA 65

I just turned on the game before the end of the half and saw some ridiculous calls.

We are moving in slow motion with really bad body language. This team is not ready to play tonight. Pitiful first half performance. Better regroup and show some fight in the second half.

This is where good teams show their mark. On the road and down at half. We'll know a lot about this team in how they respond in the second half. If they come out hitting some shots, we can still do this. The refs are bad but we are playing the pick and roll terribly. We are not hedging at all with our bigs and that's allowing the guards to penetrate too easily and that's where a lot of our fouls are coming from. Having said that, the foul on Miller and one on Stove were absolutely ridiculous.

1st half stats

[Hudsheen#Fired]

Thought we had gotten to within 2.
That's what I get for listening to playxplay guy.

We did get the game to 30-32
UTA finished half on 12-2 run

[zephyr]

Not sure why Marlin had Stroman in at the point where he picked up his 3rd. Cedric Russell was playing well and Hardy could have been in there as well. No need to have him risk that 3rd foul.

I thought Miller got fouled in the back and pushed into the player in front of him.
We need to get to the free throw line. We are hitting our avg. of 83%.
Washington's put back at the 3:03 mark got the score to 30-32.

These announcers are awful. PBP guy isn't the worst I've ever heard but I'm not sure he's watching the same game as I am. Color guy is a total clown. Calling the UTA players by their first name, a ridiculously thick accent, and says some really off the wall things. Hard to listen to

Not really one phase of the game we’re doing well. All we gotta do is outscore them by 13 in this half. Gotta take care of the ball.

I don't know about that, it just looked like 3 guys going for a rebound. He went up pretty straight as well as the other two guys. I think that's a no call

I am listening on the radio.

I would take that.

We are competing.
Held them without a score for about 2 minutes.
