Lotta game left & maybe we'll get it together, but this is so frustrating to watch as UT looks like somebody we should be beating

Is Thamba simply not coachable or physically unable to do what a post should do?
Flo is not a very athletic player. That's why he was a three-star recruit out of high school.

I'm not sure why people continue to expect him to do things he's not capable of doing.

Ok. Maybe KG's getting us going now.

14 Free throws to 2 or so in a Higgins ut game?

I. Am. Shocked.

Josh O is going to be really good, but that dude needs to learn to make a layup.
Johnny Bear

Good lord another missed layup. Just playing losing basketball tonight.
Fre3dombear

This is like watching womens basketball

Never seen so many missed Layups
DanaDane

Who threw the in-bounds pass to Lohner? There was no way he was catching that.
BearlySpeaking
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Wow, it's been a long time since I've seen an free throw airball.
Fre3dombear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I stand corrected.

14 to 6

With a texas air all in a free throw lol

Can't say I've ever done that

We look really bad. It's amazing we're only down four.
Johnny Bear

Way to stand there and watch him hit the three Cryer.
DanaDane

Lohner, Bonner and Josh O on the floor. Not many clearcut scoring options.
IowaBear

That shouldn't surprise you, Cryer loafs on D a ton

Good transition D after the Cryer turnover.

Such sloppy basketball. They need to slow down and run some plays.

Brock Cunningham is a goon.
Fre3dombear

I wish we wanted to win this game
Stefano DiMera

That's flagrant.

Cunningham is a dirty dude. Throw him out.

Baylor is not playing as well as they have in the past few games. Not by a long shot.
Johnny Bear

I hope the 7 foot 4 star we recently signed knows how to go up strong at the rim - just to see what it's like to have a true post player that can do that
Fre3dombear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Higgins'd again

What did you want Flo to do there? He got mauled.
DanaDane
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I mean. As poorly as we've played the first 10 minutes of this half, the fact we're only 5 behind is nothing short of a miracle and says we have a shot at this if someone can just get a hot hand.
historian
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Fran is right: Flo is shooting much better from the free throw line
IowaBear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
34% as a team, isn't gonna cut it against good teams. Hopefully Flag finds his shot at some point
Stefano DiMera
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Keyonte has got to play better D than that.
BearlySpeaking
How long do you want to ignore this user?
We just need a couple of back to back 3s to move the mojo in this game.
