A ton of back and forth action, but not many points.  Both teams blew several fast break chances there.

My limited basketball IQ says we needed to slow it down there. Didn't look like we were doing jack with that fast paced stuff

Hamlet hurting. 

Checking in from work. Love the score! Hope this Hamlet post isn’t about anything too serious.

The CBS audio is off. I cannot hear any of the announcers! 
Any one else not hearing anything?

( the only thing I am hearing is the wife bitching about the tv and no sound)

[Wag Tag]

Is our D playing this good??

Feels like the game has settled down just a tad.  Intense as hell though.

he came down awkward on his knee. He winced and limped around a while but he's a freaking warrior. Not coming out.

[Matt from A700]

Would love to keep this lead at 14 or 15 going into the half.

I agree although I would take a 10 point lead if it meant our main 4 guys get some rest. Western is confident and biding their time with us knowing they are deeper and can run it in the second half.

 

Our defensive game plan is on point right now though!

[greenminer]

Basset is 1-8

Ousmane has two fouls damnut

NT 34 ------- WKU 23

 

Halftime

 

 

Feels like the game has settled down just a tad.  Intense as hell though. Great half.  I expect a BIG charge the first four minutes of the second by WKU.  Weather that, we may have this.

34-23 at the half

That's the conference MVP?? 😆😆😆😆

Our defense is just awesome. Keep that up in the second half and we will be fine.

That’s what I’m afraid of 

[Wag Tag]

Bassey 0 rebounds??  Bell 6 rebounds!! GMG 

[Andrew]

Take away half of our boneheaded turnovers and we would be dominating them. Protect the ball and stick to the plan on D and we win. Hopefully WKU does not get hot from deep at the wrong time.

Better him than Simmons.  He doesn’t play enough minutes to worry about his foul trouble.

More air balls than rebounds.

You don’t watch much tournament basketball, huh? 
 

We are playing great, but their team (and especially their MVP) won’t play like this for two halves.  This is a deep and smart team we are playing...there is a run, or two, in them.  

[kingwoodgreen]

If we stop the stupid turnovers we win this one. If we can’t then it will be tough. 

[GrandGreen]

Good start, but a long long long half to go.

I hope NT holds on, just to show those so-called experts on CBS sports.  

[ScreamingEaglesFan]

Now we just have to keep Bassett from repeating his UAB performance of 0 points first 20 mins and 20 points in the last half.

They’re all a-holes.
