Title: Well dang.....

A great comeback but they finished just short. Obviously, if they had played the first 13 minutes of the second half the way they played the last 7, they would have won going away.  :frown:

Got a good look on that last play, too. I probably would've drawn up a play to get Santi the last shot, even though he had a bad game.

I was thinking that they would drive the basket and maybe get fouled.

It was a great look for 3, but I'm always in favor of attacking the glass in that situation.  Great effort in the last 5 minutes.

I very rarely question officials, but those two fouls on SV and JJJ on their last two possessions were cheap, I thought.  That didn't cost us the game - our lack of offense for 13 to 15 minutes cost us the game - but those two fouls were ticky-tack (both called by the same official if I'm not mistaken).

Also, if you watch the last shot, ORN got leveled by a Texas player as he was going to the glass for a possible rebound.  It wasn't just a foul - if it wasn't at least an F1, there is no such thing.

**Addendum: The missed foul didn't cost UT the game.  35 minutes of piss poor offense cost them the game, but it was a horrible no-call imo.

That is interesting! Wow! What was he thinking?  It makes you wonder if that was the play from the bench or if he simply tried to call that timeout on his own.

One thing is certain: if he had simply run the floor he would not have gotten leveled trying to get to the rim for a possible put-back.

Hopefully this loss will piss them off and they destroy whoever we play next
