This team is so bipolar, it's maddening.

I think what most on here are trying to say is what I'm feeling... We have no doubt the guys can come back and win this game comfortably, but you can't keep giving half-*** performances in the 1st half in tourney play if you want to be able to get to the Final Four. We won't always be able to hit high percentages in the second half and teams won't always bend over so easy to give it back. You play with fire, eventually you'll get burnt.

That's only in 80's hair band ballads. I've known some 20+ year firefighter vets that played with fire on a daily basis and never got burned.

You don't know that. Maybe we can. It's unorthodox, but if it keeps working, it keeps working.

Well were down 3. If recent history repeats we will hopefully blow them out

^^^This- and if there's one thing I know about Dragons it's that they have a lot of fire to get burnt with! :spinny:

We came out with energy and showed them what we could do in the first 4 minutes. Then we got cocky and sloppy and made dumb plays. We will fix that. We have seen this more than a few times

 

[Psyclone Brian]

HALFTIME STATS CLICK HERE c'mon Naz!

 

[madguy30]

I bet you are a blast to watch games with.

You mean realistically?

I'd be surprised if the 2nd half isn't much of the same tone as the last 15 minutes of that 1st half.

And Georges didn't play for the last 10 minutes, but you know, hustle and energy.

Freddy is looking sick in this interview with Allie

 

[Dandy]

Someone get LaForce a new pair of pants ASAP.

 

[Jer]

I'm so tired of the reach around passes under the basket.

 

[Die4Cy]

Bdj looked pretty upset at whatever Jameel was saying over Freddy's shoulder...

 

[CloneZone13]

turnover to start, and then a reach in foul. awesome guys

 

[marothisu]

McKay not having a very good game so far

 

[atlantacyclone]

Well, playing about the same...

 

[Althetuna]

Calling it tight need to adjust.

 

[Die4Cy]

Brown for UAB has a serious case of **** face, don't he?

 

[Dandy]

Come on, boys.

 

[CloneZone13]

Thomas in for Naz, 3 fouls on Naz
