I can't believe that as physical as it is inside and on drives, that UNLV only has 5 fouls.

They're allowed to push and grab, and we're not allowed to touch them. Also we missed 4-6 bunnies. Pretty happy to be down two given those two situations.

I just got the audio feed and I'm assuming the announcer is not a tool. How the heck are we not up at least 20,000 pt.'s when we have 100,000 offensive rebounds?

Way up there
Will and Melvin are matching them up front, we need one of the guards to start hitting...

Down 2 at the half is not bad at all, especially given our 33% FG & 2-8 from beyond the arc. We are 4-4 from charity, and out-rebounding 26-22 which has led to 12 second chance points. With our cold shooting from outside another stat I like is that we have 20 points in the paint!

Real good on the offensive glass for us..still making dumb mistakes, but not as many as yesterday. Still missing some bunnies and taking some stupid contested 3's. The bunnies we've missed, again, is really frustrating to watch.

If this team can put it together offensively and find a way to get some high percentage looks and knock them down.. that would be great.

This is exciting and would be a huge road win for our guys. Lets get em in the second half!!!

I am not able to watch this game and maybe I am missing something, but 10 pts, 8 rebounds, and 0 turnovers for 1 half sound really solid.

closed the half a LOT stronger than he started, looked like our best player the last ten minutes of the half

Soooo...who has the ball you dip *****??? I can't stand these two idiots!

Reminds me of Gary Dolphin. I know you told me the ball was handed off 5 seconds ago but did he gain 5, lose 5, fumble, get sucked into a worm hole? He's just as bad with basketball.

Not looking too bad. Clyburn and Ejim each with 10 and 8 is huge. Hopefully some guards will start hitting from outside so we can open up a lead. Beating UNLV in Vegas would be a huge resume booster.

Poor Paul Doerfield cannot pronounce the names of our players. The last game I had to listen to, he said "Will Clyborn". Just did it again giving the halftime stats. He cannot even read a commercial, there has to be a former Cyclone player who can at least read.

That said, nice finish to the half, lets salvage the weekend and get this W.

Agreed, we need to wait for those shots instead of trying to force them. Once they start falling, game over. Lets just hope they do before 2 minutes left in the game.

Hoping for an offensive explosion from McGee to catch UNLV off guard.

I just can't help but wonder how dominant ejim would be if he didn't have rocks for hands and miss so many easy lay ups
