Where do us old people get our meds nowadays?

He was a 6th grader when I started work. Came through our school and hooped. His mom worker with me and was always very nice. Gotta pull for them! ❤️

I dont love WKU, but I don't hate them enough to wish TB as their coach. We need to conference to improve, not implode

One game contracts can be a thing, right?

Well to be fair they have the best player in the conference and they actually play their players so they have depth. We are going to be tired and short. It’s an uphill battle for us unless a couple players comes off the bench and show up big. 
 

we have a chance but WKU is a very good team with fresher legs and a deeper bench. 

[UNTLifer]

Umm, Hamlet plays for us.

Bassey was a lottery pick at one time. He is a beast and we better step up to stop him.  

[Andrew]

I love it!

Literally we could not have asked for a better start than this.

At this point your looking right haha

 

However when it comes to going to the nba it’s Bassey. Hamlet needs to come back and have another huge run to try to have a shot as a second rounder.

Well Bassey could have two fouls haha

[Matt from A700]

Topper fans dead silent!!

[emmitt01]

This is still a semi-blue blood we are playing.  13-0 is AWESOME but there is a lot of clock left

[Gibbz]

LET HAMLET COOK--man down!

[akriesman]

Have to get those defensive rebounds.   Key to winning this game.   WKU's first 4 points come from 2nd shots.

[Green P1]

This is neat. 

[CMJ]

NT 19 ------- WKU 10

 

11:26 to go

 

 

Toppers making a charge after we got up 17.

[UNTLifer]

Basset may end up being a better NBA player, but this is now.  Plus, I am a homer. 

[Marty]

Hamlet hurting. 

[Salsa_Verde]

I overslept...what did I miss? 

[CMJ]

NT 24 ------- WKU 14

 

7:52 to go

 

 

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

I know we are up but this is everything I hoped for in a championship game.

[Andrew]

We need more off the bench to keep these guys fresh for the second half. Put in a few guys and slow down the pace for 2-3 minutes. Especially when Bassey is out. Milk clock and rest our guys for the second half.
