we got a stop

Whoever it was who has the under might be in trouble.
They are fouling early and often. Gotta hope we make, they miss and they give up.

I have it as the fourth piece of a four-way parlay. I'm sweating bullets!

I think you are screwed...

Good grief, this is brutal.

 

[IndySooner]

Me too.

Was in great shape until we let them back into the game.

 

[skyvue]

Sorry, but we've been nowhere near them on most of these threes. It's been bad perimeter defense this half -- very frustrating. This game should never have been this close.

 

[WTSooner]

I hope everybody doesn't go crazy about the 2nd half. VERY easy for OU to come out flat after halftime. Big lead, probably best half of the year.....tournament with a game tomorrow, easy to look ahead. LK will tear into them after the game. I'm much more impressed with the 1st half, than I am disappointed in the 2nd half.

 

[IndySooner]

And.....there goes the under! Damn!

 

[JBaker]

Horrible defense.
Santa Clara is going to have 50 this half. That's absolutely terrible however you slice it.

 

[Tydude]

timeout OU

Honestly all I care about is the W.
Doesn't make the second half D any less disappointing though. Like to see the team keep their heads in the game for 40.

Twenty minutes of mostly uncontested threes is nothing to take lightly. I'm very happy about the first half, too, but this half's been really bad. If our perimeter defense on Sunday isn't MUCH better than this, we could have a very tough time with St. Louis on Sunday.

They'll get there. That is something else they have to learn, and you cannot really learn it, until you go through it.

Thank you. Sloppy finish or not, I'm not the least bit upset with this win.

Wow.

Agreed, I really liked what I saw defensively in the first half and we did a great job on the boards as well. But, they are in danger of blowing a big halftime lead.

 

[Tydude]

this is getting sloppy

 

[Pizza the Hutt]

ok, what the hell.

Did I just see an alley-oop 3-pointer?
