[GreenspointTexas 9556]

Fucking christ guys

[TexArcher 37455]

Two missed dunks are the differene between down 4 and 8.  Make that 10.

[D3zii 3637]

Hopefully we keep it within 20

[dcar00 14023]

jesus we just give away points.  

and that was a travel .

Disu is getting hacked everywhere.

[David Dennison 18601]

This is sad.

[Pancho 44357]

This might get ugly 

[shadow_operative 15931]

Hey Fran, Disu got fouled before all that shit happened and you said nothing.

[Pancho 44357]

We don’t need disu shooting 3s right now 

[GreenspointTexas 9556]

We havent attempted a single free throw so far

He's getting bullied and smothered down low.

Just hope the rim opens for him after he finally made one. 

[Minute Bull 243]

Pretty sure Shed could beat Texas by himself. Lightning quick release.

[Honeysucklerose 957]

This is one painful team to watch

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

I thought the big lineup was the answer, but this team is too weak at every single position. Maybe the jumpers start falling next half, we’ve gotten some open looks

Brock needs to back someone the fuck off the boards and plant his ass.

[ClubWhatever 12085]

JV vs Varsity.   Different level player at every position.

[BurgleBro 770]

Houston is playing active relentless D the way we did with Beaird.  They're also more athletic than us. 

 

If we hit our damn open 3s it would get easier.

Has either team?
 

The no calls do favor the aggressive team though. That isn’t us.

From a pass from Abmas inside.

Yep. This 

[The_Great_Hornsby 3319]

Too many missed open looks. And stupid shot selection. Disu posting up for 3s is fucking stupid.

We are a day late and a dollar short on every possession. Pathetic. 

[ATXbronco 4060]

[VinyVango 677]

Texas ran Houston’s d there!

[dcar00 14023]

and there it.  "Houston does a great job of playing D without fouling"  Disu has been fouled about 10 times tonight.

[The_Great_Hornsby 3319]

This game has been there for the taking, that is what is sad. 

[ATXbronco 4060]

Shed on Shed crime?!

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

We desperately need Max to get hot.

Because we aren’t driving the fucking ball, something I’ve been complaining about Texas basketball for damn near 16 years.

Kelvin still an asshole

Correct, we are posting up Disu 3s, fucking stupid. We are scared of contact. We are playing finesse when we need to be pounding it inside. This team doesnt have the balls to get in a streetfight. Losers

It’s not the refs. This is Men v. Boys.  These teams aren’t in the same stratosphere.

Stop making excuses for Disu when he is posting up for 3 the whole first half. Oh and he missed a wide open dunk. He is playing like ass with ZERO intensity.

we've had Disu inside multiple times and he gets bullied and/or fouled.  I bet we make this a streetfight in the 2nd half and then all of a sudden officials will feel the need to control the game.

the problem is our guards aren't good enough or quick enough to make Houston pay for the pressure D and double teams. Our guards are basically replacement level Jags, especially when Abmas isn't hitting.

Abmas has been complete ass, that I agree with. He missed 3 easy layups and has been making bad decisions all night. 

[Hookem2147 20908]

Disu was shooting almost 60% from 3 coming into this one. At least 2 of those attempts in the first half should be automatic for him.

They are bitchmade, is that better? I dont know many winners that get outhustled and bullied on their home floor. These guys dont have what it takes to be a top team. 

[BigTEAMLittleme 188]

It’s interesting to me that we only had three fouls in the half. I mean Houston only has five, but still: are we playing aggressive enough? Would like to see some more Weaver and less Horton. This game is going to be won with energy and toughness.

Also, when was the last time Texas took a charge? I think Abmas took two against Baylor. But since? That’s one thing Beard’s teams always did was stood their ground and took a charge.

Top team no but that’s been known for a while.
