Brice played a whole 3 minutes that half

My guess is the thinking was he was not able to keep up with number 20. I would have preferred he stayed in because they are killing us on the offensive glass. The guys need coach to clue them in here. It's tough watching from the stands and not be able to give advice.

Game over because they are about to be in the bonus with 15 minutes left to go and they don't miss their free throws.

Could this be the the first game with Benford as coach that we make halftime adjustments and play better in the second half? Naw, I don't think so either.

I bet he makes adjustments, but they just suck.

Andrew · December 23, 2016

Number 3 consistently leading with the elbow. So many offensive fouls in called.These refs are pretty bad. That man traveled and somehow he is st the line to shoot two.

I have to wonder if he nursing an injury. I saw him in a boot during the women's game:

I left at half time... that san diego team was giving up like 75 a game and we had 25 at half! These guys run 0 offense, San Diego had inferior athletes and they made us look silly time and again because they RAN AN OFFENSE. Wow. First game back, sat in traffic for 45 minutes to watch that. No thanks on going back.

Close enough to be interesting down the stretch.

Brown is playing his butt off. San Diego is very physical and we have no defense for the back door.

Bc they are running a real offense that has reads and you make cuts based off your defender being in a position, no matter where he is, he is wrong and you have something to counter it. I miss watching good basketball at UNT.

I like this guy! You sir know your ball. We are letting guys slip to early as well.

Our best lineup while I was there is

PG Woolridge

2 Brown/Brown

3 Frazier

4 Holsten

5 Combs or Green

Bryce is still entirely too soft for a 7 foot basketball player not named Nowitzki. He got the ball on the block early in the game took two dribbles and somehow ended up taking a freaking 10 foot baseline hook. He was going against a guy a head shorter than him and probably 50 pounds lighter. Muscle that man down and go up strong.

Totally back in this now! Trying not to get too hopeful here with this comeback.

All we gots do is sneeze on them and they are calling fouls.

Mostly just that one ref though.

Any contact while someone is dribbling is a foul. It's a rule. We play defense with our hands all over people, some refs call it some let it go. Guess these guys don't like it, gotta adjust your play.

I'm down with that line up. I think Brice is soft but he has a nice touch. I believe he wasn't played much this game because the SD post players are incredibly athletic. 32 is dominating this game and Brice could not keep up. You couldn't press like you want to and you would have to run a zone with him i the center and risk giving up shots. I like Brice but this game he isn't very useful.

You two have never met?

Bullyballer · December 23, 2016

We didn't need that pass by Woolridge. Needed the ball, not the fancy turnover.

Nope- never meant any of you guys. But hope to one day.

If they are calling these they should really call the offensive fouls. Nothing was more frustrating in rec play then guys that just lower their shoulder and barrel it in or guys that constantly throw out their off ball arm. That dude RICO that plays in the GMG does that all the time. Learn to dribble haha. I know I cannot dribble well so I don't even bother haha.
