The technical shots could have been taken by someone else, right?

Yes. Not sure why we didn’t have Momcilovic shoot the technical shots.

I guess I only watch games on CBS in March, cuz this feels like a tournament game to me. The music. The broadcast team.

The production quality from the cameras, crowd shots, replays, music, and announcers is about as good as you can get.

 

[xboxfever]

Terrible coaching by T.J to have Jones in there at the end. No reason whatsoever for him to be on the floor in that situation.

 

[Die4Cy]

Time for the Legend of Toupe Bill?

I'm wondering if he's getting some botox or had something cosmetic done.

He looks...different.

 

[CyNews]

We are not that sharp, and still tied…. I like where we’re at. Start hitting a few shots and take care of the ball and we got this.

Milan!!!

 

[rosshm16]

Bill Raftery is about as good as it gets, love that guy.

 

[NoCreativity]

Should have stuck in Pav or Omaha if we were going to foul.

 

[cyfanbr]

Having Big Rob in there to end the half felt like a mistake. That 3td foul may hurt us in the second half.

 

[Jdk]

Self is a walking pile of ****

 

[Pitt_Clone]

I liked the "his head got in the way" comment from the announcer on the F1. I don't understand why they were so against that being a flagrant.

 

[ca4cy]

Why was Jones even in on that play, if you're going to foul? I get that he's a great defender but so are all our other guards.

Agreed. Put him in after you give the foul. That hurts.

 

[ISUAlum2002]

Dickinson should have at least 2 fouls right now to go with his 2 uncalled travels.

 

[legi]

Jay Wright is one of the greats. His analysis and comments are basically always spot on.

 

[Final42b]

I’ll take it. Need Jones and Milan to hit some shots to get this win

 

[NorthCyd]

Yes. Not sure why we didn’t have Momcilovic shoot the technical shots.

I don't think he was in the game, but King is a much better FT shooter than Lipsey and I think he was.

 

[Die4Cy]

Bill Raftery is about as good as it gets, love that guy.

He's great. But Fran Fraschilla nails the man of the people vibe so he gets my vote.

 

[ISU_Guy]

Should have stuck in Pav or Omaha if we were going to foul.

yes, and this came out of a time out.
dont' think we played well, but we have the lead which is outstanding.

 

[jctisu]

I feel like the number is to force 10 turnovers in the second half and we win. More than that is preferable obviously, but will be tough to repeat the first half and win from that standpoint.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Great half. Two high level teams just battling. Two high level coaches taking certain things away and giving others.

I like that they’re letting them play, but KU got away with about three obvious, possession changing fouls.

Love the effort and execution. Play another half like that, but with just a little more rhythm, and we’ll get this one.

 

[t-noah]

I'll take a 4 point lead at the half. As usual I counted a mismatch of uncalled fouls with Kansas, 4 to 1 in KU's favor. And we have to cut the TO's!

Be nice to make our FT's. Nice 3 to close the half. Jones did get his 3rd at the end, not good there.
