Didn't get to watch the game. Saw TO only played 9 minutes per Yahoo. Was he hurt or was it just because Wolf was playing well?

Foul trouble in the first half, then picked up his 3rd foul a minute into the 2nd half. Then Wolf took over.

LOL on the full moon. Clever.

Tyler got fouls because he was not anticipating, not moving his feet. His game was just "off" (although I know that he often is not the quickest moving his feet) when he was in. He finished with 3 fouls, so he could have played more but did not deserve the time tonight. I think that Tyler is 2 different players depending upon whether he plays with confidence or not (which will often depend on how he plays at the start). We need him to be a stabilizer and someone who can keep his poise and confidence in the face of some adversity. He's not there yet, so we may see some real ups and downs.

Wolf was really better tonight. For someone with so little playing time, he plays loose and with confidence. When he shot that 18 foot (almost) jumper, my jaw dropped until it went in. What a surprise. I wish Giffey could play that way.

Time to invest in a sweet wolf shirt

TO not moving his feet and trying to block shots........quite honestly he needs to ditch the blocked shots and work on playing better defense as we need him in the game!! He'll be fine and the Wolf picked him up on this night...........

Ollie is not a 'people pleaser' that's for sure. Sat Calhoun down for ineffective play as well. He seems to have an NBA mindset, meaning earn your paycheck or someone else will (i.e. Tyler/Wolf).

Right from the get go I felt TO had the type of funk we saw in last season's Fairfield game and for many games afterwords. The kid goes into some sort of tailspin about his ability and struggles to get out of it. That was affordable last season not this. Somebody or something got into his head prior to the game.
