Good crowd sounds.

Don't. Waste. Possessions.
never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Winter comes and asks how you spent your summer.....

The game loves and rewards those who love and reward the game

Gotta be pretty happy with where things are, given how we're shooting. Been a very ugly game, but over the last three minutes we've created a few better looks.

Wow. Defense is off the charts for how ugly this game has been. Wiz saved his best ball of his Bobcat career for when we needed it most.

We’ve got them flustered. Keep it up.

That Hunter strip on the Akron fast break followed by a three shifted the momentum dramatically.

Come out with the same energy for the first 5 minutes of the second half, and we've got this.

Freeman has 1 foul at the half. I can think of 2 or 3 other fouls that weren't called. Jordan Rules?

Clayton isn’t playing the way he has in the past. Going with Gabe makes sense for now.
For this half, he’s just spelling the Wiz. Feels so weird to type that.

Gabe shouldn’t be shooting but otherwise is playing stout.
He played good defense on Freeman. It was a good half but didn't need that useless third foul.

Let’s hope for the same second half that we had yesterday. Play relaxed and everything will fall into place.

Nine first-half turnovers after only 3 last night. And 2 of those in the first half tonight came when Ohio had a 5 on 4 advantage negated by a turnover in the backcourt.

I can't complain with being up 10 at the half.

Yep, they are going to go to Freeman every possession in the second half. They will follow the whiz out and maybe AJ. I think Haddaway is gonna have to guard him for some stretches in the second half.

Huge that Clayton did not pick up a third foul before the half. The illegal screen call was trash.

Forcing turns into points.

Huge.

Gabe was incredible. Looks like a completely different player

+1. I mean he knocked down Jaylin on a loose ball 3 mins in.

Much has been said about the growth shown by Hadaway this season. Has anyone else noticed how much of a playmaker he has become?

I just hope when Freeman passes out of the post because he’s triple or quadruple teamed that they don’t start hitting threes.

When’s the last time we held ANYONE to 16 in the first half?

Since Freeman is immune to fouls, keep attacking Ali and take him out of the game. He already has two and plays with a lot of emotion.

Forget Jordan Rules. We're playing this game under Freeman Rules.

It is actually astonishing how that was called on Jaylin and not Freeman.

Absolutely unbelievable. They're letting Freeman do whatever he wants to do...calling nothing. Boals has to be going out of his mind.

Our smallness just makes it difficult for the guards to finish in the lane. Against good bigs.We’re gonna have to start knocking down some threes to open it up.
