Glad it's only 4, but the only shot we're getting right now is the 3

We've done a lot of the weave. But we haven't been able to get the ball into the paint with a pass. Somewhat with the dribble
Mayer just passed up a lob dunk for JTT. Mental sharpness is not there right now. If we don't get the ball inside going to be difficult to just keep hitting jumpers. Some of this is Oregon is just making shots, but some of them are not contested. But they have been making contested shots too.

JTT from 3???????

Nice to see MM & EJ get a bucket inside

Is Kendall Brown sick? He's only played about 3 minutes in the first half.

Another fantastic call by these refs

Baylor D looks much sharper since the Drew timeout down 34-24
DanaDane

Yeah, didn't care much for that last possession before the half.

Not a great shot. Waited too long.

Pretty good way to end the half (big picture, not last possession). But still down by 4.

We are often very good in the 2nd half. Hoping they will be their best the rest of this game.

Beats me.

I wish Scott Drew would make this team work in ball inside and STOP letting our smallest player drive 1 on 5! Dang!

he had 2 fouls so I guess CSD did not want him to get a 3rd
DanaDane

Ducks 5-7 from the FT
Bears 0-2


We trail by 4 at the half.

Not a chance Oregon shoots that well in the second half. Most of those they hit were low percentage contested shots.

He's clearly a bad coach.

CSD has been great with half time adjustments during this 3 year run so hope he works his magic again

Where is the inside game? You have to go in to the paint even if you don't get the shot bc the kick outs are there. I look for more inside play 2nd half. This is where Mitchell and Butler fake it to the hoop and get their shot or make a great pass. All I see right now is a perimeter offense. On the bright side the game is virtually even so I expect a solid 2nd half to win this.
DanaDane

Bears shooting 64% from 3; Oregon shooting 55% from 3. Neither team is gonna shoot that well from 3 in the 2nd half so it's gonna become a battle underneath.

That's what I meant to say! You say it better than I do.

No, but clearly his plan was not to go inside coming in. Now he has to adjust.
