My high school coach got t ed up for a soft call like that, less than two minutes into the game.

Turns out my uncle wasn't in the mood. I shouldn't have told my coach that it was my uncle that gave him the t.
That's nice grandpa, open up your Dr. Pepper and let the blood pressure settle.

Defense is non-existent.
What exactly would you like them to when it’s literally guys hitting shot after shot with hands in their face, most of them while the shot clock is running down?

in defense of Gilbert, he has been getting jobbed all year long. He has gone into the lane time and time again, taken on enormous amounts of contact and not getting the fkn call. Game after game this happens. I can understand it happening for a game or two, but this has been a consistent phenomenon. I don't get it.

You watch Houston and Tennessee and they consistently defend throughout the game, 1 through 5. This team just doesn’t have that lockdown ability from tip to tip. We hope to play well enough for it to be close against decent teams and then turn it on over the last few minutes.

It’s playing with fire and a frustrating consequence of only being able to afford Chat and Jackson as bigs.

This shouldn’t even be a game, especially in Hilton. Cincinnati is not a good basketball team, but we insist on letting bad teams hang around
Cincinnati has a guy playing great which will keep you in any game.

KG has gotten technicals at other times this year?
I don’t recall Keshon ever getting another technical. He’s always been a calm and collected player…. this announcer doesn’t know Keshon at all… yet just throws out stupid baseless accusations about him as a player. What announcer was that?

I think he needs to stop trying so hard to sell the fouls and he might get more calls

Cincinnati is not a bad team. They're a bubble team that has some tough guards to handle, this was never going to be an easy game.
