Love how they've been letting them play but surely their getting in foul trouble and will be a huge factor in 2nd half no?

Cats down 30-29 at the half.
Considering how the game started, and the injury, well I'll take being down 1.
It's long past time to bring this back to the court, let's do it with a small update:

Worst half of the year and down by 1. I'll take it. Clean half we advance. Another half like this and we go home.

Trier has totally lost it to the point I cringe when he is on the floor. He must have stars in his eyes and it isn't working. His NBA stock must have fallen. He needs to mature more.

Agree. Annoying basketball. Lauri needs to take it too them inside. Make them move their feet, get them in foul trouble.

That was @ Oregon, only scored 18 at the half. Although it was looking like it was heading that way. If they made a bunch of 3s they'd be up double digits.

I would like to see some small ball (LM at center)............Let Lauri drag Landale outside and find out if he can guard him on the drive

Guys, I want to apologize to everyone... I was wearing a sweet 16 shirt... it was a bad decision... in the timeout with about 6 minutes to go, I changed shirts.

We got this now

Again... my fault... please forgive me

AT I don't think is lost but he is surely playing selfish with terrible hero ball antics.

We will need AT big-time in the second half. Miller made his point!

Like play defense and pass to open teammates and knock off perimeter shots while in double coverage?

Like not treating the NCAA tourney like a aau mixtape for scouts? Remembering what Miller preaches about team success leading to individual success?

I hope so. I'll believe it when I see it.

Whichever team sets the tone to start the half will probably win. I've seen no evidence that Saint Mary's can handle disruptive pressure defense. Not Gonzaga's, not ours in the final 4 minutes of the half. If we come out and let them play their motion offense, I'm going to cry.
