I saw that we held them to 32 in the first half and assumed the defense was playing better. Then I looked at the stats and saw that Bellarmine is shooting 57.9% from the floor and 44.4% from three. The only reason we’re ahead is because we’re dominating the glass and Bellarmine has 10 turnovers.
If we can improve 2% every game in some way we will get there.
Overall, a pretty good half. Lairy poured in a bunch of points late in the half. We are fortunate to be ahead though. Not sure why Bellarmine was fouling us so much, but we’ll take it.
We started playing much better after I started bitching! (I think Steele getting animated had something to do with it as well, but I will take the credit). We just have to keep playing smart, moving the ball and stick tough on D.
I wouldn’t mind playing Bellarmine every year. This could become a nice rivalry game.
Really struggling to hit shots right now. Defense isn’t bad. Forcing turnovers has kept it close, but we need to regain our offensive rhythm
The commentators, who are sitting like five feet from Steele (you could hear him through their mics the whole game), loudly announce the play Bellarmine is going to run on a possession and we still get burned on it.
Bring home a winner, I have been watching from the Atlanta airport - on our way home from Nassau to Oxford, but have to board the plane now
I don’t bitch about refs often but these refs suck. Steele is right to be hot.
This officiating has caused a 4 point swing off a single play.
Let’s win this bitch!
Sub in Kamari for Tatum. We need our best players on the floor. Safford can help bring the ball up.
Tatum hanging on for dear life defensively (and not succeeding).
Morris just got lost. I’m really happy these young guys are getting experience, but it’ll make it hard to win close games. Hoping it helps win them as they mature.
Keep going to Mekhi!
Where is this guy finding a K in Mirambeaux’s name?
The refs in this game are like a magic 8 ball lol.
If we can score on this possession to go up three or four, we could salt the game with our free throw shooting.
Mabrey showing up big time
Hell yeah, big win!!
Hoopsters salvage the weekend!
