Message: [QUOTE="RichZ, post: 3340242, member: 534"] I don't have much. Had a 4:30 alarm set for this morning, so I only watched the first half. Then I woke up at quarter to 1, looked at the cell and saw a tweet from somebody in the press that "It's 12:47 and we're still playing basketball, UConn Xavier going into 2nd OT." WTF? We looked like crap and were down 10 when I went to bed at half-time. Checked first thing when I got up, saw the result, and spent the day depressed. Here's what little I've got. [LIST=1] [*]We weren't DOA like we have been recently. First few minutes, we actually looked good. Then, 3 minutes in, they caught up and went past us. After that, it was kind of nip & tuck, with the deficit running 1 to 3 points until... [*]Five minutes left in the half, they got hot and we fell apart. Down 10 at the half. [*]Through the first half, we took horrible care of the ball. ISTR we had about 10 turnovers when I had to shut it down. [*]Also, we never shot a foul shot ntil about 4 minutes were left in the first half. [*]Vital and Gilbert stunk the joint up shooting, but Vital was rebounding like a demon, and had some nice dimes. Looks like he ended the game with a dozen boards, 4 steals and 4 assists. So he shot like drek, and took a lot of poor shots. But he also dominated the boards and played well in other aspects. [*]Bouknight is special. [/LIST] And that's about it. [/QUOTE]
