Not sure which is worse. The officiating or our free throw shooting.

 

[WTSooner]

Refs are terrible. And that’s coming from a guy that doesn’t complain about them much.

Love our effort. Gotta clean up the turnovers and we should be fine. Keep attacking. We’re the more athletic team.

3-8 on free throws we could be up by a lot more and McGusty on 9 assists on then entire YEAR WOW. He never passes. And if the refs would quit getting fooled we would be up by more.

and fans here complain about trae.... LOLOL

im not a fan of mcgusty because of that. or manek when he decides hes going to shoot regardless.. puzzling that Kruger gave extra minutes to manek than doolittle today...

Way too much shake and bake in his game. You would think he rooms with McNeace.

I blame the refs for our poor FT shooting

One time I asked @JayMuni25, who didn't play organized hoops until high school, who he modeled his game after:

"I don't really watch basketball. I play NBA Jam."

 

[Postman77]

That is true. Not a single facilitator on the floor, and it shows.

If they would actually run some specific action instead of the "spread and do him", a facilitator is not as vital.

 

[TINY]

Really wish Shep could have hit at least one of those free throws.

 

[sheepdogs1]

We're pretty awful without Trae

The chances of him picking up 5 fouls are nonexistent.

 

[inoref]

Well at least they still in the game and not being blown out. I do feel that OU should be up by double digits. I don't like the feel if it comes down to the wire

Yep. Lon is allergic to actually running plays.

yet mcgusty doesnt really get separation.. he dribbles in the same place mostly. they are essentially turnovers.

We get it, you hate McNeace...

No. I blame the refs for Trae playing 10 minutes instead of 18.

Agree?

 

[inoref]

Does anyone believe that if OU gets beat today this is the last game for McGusty as a Sooner?

 

[hoopsaustin]

No. I blame the refs for Trae playing 10 minutes instead of 18.

Agree?

ridiculous. yes

 

[22dupree]

why are they allowed to constantly hand check?

Yep. They hand check, clutch and grab. Trae's been getting that for 2 months now with few calls.

 

[TINY]

Does anyone believe that if OU gets beat today this is the last game for McGusty as a Sooner?

I am hoping it’s your last game as an ou “fan”.

i wouldnt test that against this ref crew

 

[sheepdogs1]

No. I blame the refs for Trae playing 10 minutes instead of 18.

Agree?

He should be fully rested to play much of the 2nd half.
