...after that first half.

But we're moving on.  :powert:

I think that it was a combination of factors.

We started the half 0/6 from the field - with most of them decent looks at the rim. Make a couple of those and they don't get the jump start on the run.

We didn't defend like we did in the first half (or overtime). I felt like our ball pressure really dropped off in the second half. Fortunately, it was back for the overtime.

We went away from what worked in the first half. We tried to take the air out of the ball and it nearly bit us.

Survive and advance, squared!!!!!

Addendum: the sphincter factor was also heavily at work today in the second half.

Admiral mentioned that after the game. He said the memory of what happened last year was with them.  It showed, for sure

To me this is a major factor. We are a bad offensive team when we slow it down and try to run clock. Lots of lazy telegraphed passes. That isn't us, and we shouldn't do it.

Agree.
