[TexArcher 37,768]

Stop shooting, Marcus, god damn.

[hobbes2702 13,029]

At some point we will start hitting those midrange

Maybe we could let someone not named Carr try one.

[TexArcher 37,768]

4 fouls on us and 1 on Creighton.  Is this a football game??

Edited December 2, 2022 by TexArcher
Kidding, mostly. I like that the refs are letting them play.

[shakahorn 1,645]

Yeah driving it in on big ol' white boy is not...a good strategy.

[orangeut 212]

Carr for the trey

[SDG 3,319]

and 1.

[ztejas 43,411]

Nice take. Gotta stay aggressive. 

[Burt Macklin 19,020]

Great job by Carr driving into the shot blocker’s body. We need to do that way more.

You were saying? LoL

 

Let's not overreact to a slow start.

Oh, I'll still say it.  Carr should never lead this team in shots, ever.

[orangeut 212]

HUNTER

[kingkoopa6 8,347]

HUNT3R!

[SDG 3,319]

and a 3.  

[ztejas 43,411]

That 3 was all Brock. 

[crum 525]

solid close to the half

[elfenix 34,223]

32-27 longhorns going into halftime almost makes the bucket from half court after the buzzer

[TexArcher 37,768]

Love how loud that building can get.

[hookemATL 11,703]

Nice close to the half. Catch your breath and beat their tits off in the 2nd half.

Not sure Scheierman should be considered a shotblocker. But it was a nice drive. 

One of the few transition points we've been able to score, too.

Creighton's bench is unbelievably bad, but they have a top 5 starting 5 for the system they play in. 

[Biff Tannen 45,665]

Carr is best when driving the lane, imo.  Hunter should be starting.  We need to pick it up because Creighton won't stay as cold as they have been.  I also know very little about basketball.

[RockyMountainHighHorn 890]

Carr has to stop or step it up. Wish Morris was more aggressive. I’ll take the half though, should be losing.

He was trying to block the shot, ie he was the shot blocker on the play. 

[Horn80 6,114]

Just tuned in.  Closer score than I hoped it would be.

Gotcha. To me he looked like he was trying to run backwards as fast as he could and just hope Carr would bail him out. He looks like a complete goof out there on defense.

Carr and Hunter both start.

5 point lead at half against these guys is awesome. They've shot terrible from three. Texas has had something to do with it, but flat out bad shooting has had more. And Kalkbrenner doesn't miss if he gets it inside. 80% on the season, and 100% tonight. 

I'm very pleased with the half time result. Hoping we can mirror it in the second half.

This. 

I’m just telling myself this is how it will be deep in the tournament so we are just getting that experience.

Thank you very much for the update.  It’s been a tough day.

[jimmyjazz 45,889]

Man, I'll take up 5 at half on the #7 team all day.

[VinyVango 684]

We had one turnover that half

[kingkoopa6 8,347]

C3RR!

[SL Xpress 7,513]

They only had 3 turnovers.

If you had told me we'd be up by 5 with Creighton only turning it over 3 times I'd call you a liar.

[shadow_operative 15,932]

no fouls in the 1H, so we open the 2H with a completely bullshit call?

[ztejas 43,411]

Mitchell really gets every inch out of his frame. 

[Pancho 44,712]

CARRRRRRRRR

[TexArcher 37,768]

Ugh.  Love our effort even when it doesn't come together.

[kingkoopa6 8,347]

oh damn. 24. damn.. ok. 

[hobbes2702 13,029]

Yea that was a yack

[dr99 559]

Did you know they don't run any plays for Mitchell? I heard that about 10 times during the Gonzaga game.

[hobbes2702 13,029]

We are fucking up on close outs 

[Firemans4Horn 18,034]

We need 2021-22 Timmy Allen

[hobbes2702 13,029]

And get no calls at the rim

[ztejas 43,411]

Need to quit settling early in the shot clock. We've gotten good looks when we've ran our offense. 

[Pancho 44,712]

Man, didn’t we just have an 8 point lead?

[shakahorn 1,645]

I didn't realize how tall McDermott was until they just showed him talking to cockbenter.

[SL Xpress 7,513]

Kalkbrenner is dominating us inside even when he doesn't touch the ball.
