Message: [QUOTE="6Nattys4Us, post: 5174382, member: 13819"] If you are fixed on the pts we did score and why we didn't score more, then yes, you'll come up with Offense as the issue. But then it would be equally true if we held our opponents to 65-67-62 and to do that we'd all say it was Defense as the issue. Creighton was decided not by O or D, nor that lack of call on Diarra's 3. Same as Memphis - they shot +10 free throws and made 9 more of them. We committed 17 fouls; they 8. You cannot argue it's the refs, when coming in we know they barely foul and we often foul. Sure take any play in isolation and you can say it was a bad call for/against us, but the game as a whole was tight, we lost by 5, not 35, and that could have been made up if 1. We played better O and scored 6 more 2. We played better D and limited them to 62 3. We only got called for 5 fouls I think the answer is 2: Defense. [/QUOTE]
