UM Prediction and Game Thread

I never thought this team would shoot as poorly as they are shooting.

 

[I.I.]

Both teams are scary bad right now.

Both teams are scary bad right now.

But we are more scary bad!

 

[TulsaAM]

Tulsa is trying to match the tempo, shouldn't be doing that as it takes us out of our game

 

[I.I.]

If we play our best (unlikely) this will get really close. Come on. I hate Memphis.

False hope II.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Is this Griffin youngster for real?

Wow.

Not in any good way.

He is not bad. But... Holy Toledo. Young man's game is limited. He wouldn't have seen much PT before 2003. Wow.

This is all really sad, folks.

 

[TulsaAM]

Horne has been getting beat all game

Pritchard is 0-4 from the field and zero points... insane we are still in this game

He does not need to score much but he needs to play more under control.

It's confidence for him I am sure, this game pace makes things tough on a freshman

 

[TulsaAM]

Tulsa could have won this game if they played more disciplined, they lost by trying to go up tempo for important stretches.

Pritchard had 7 assists. He played well tonight. He’s not the reason we lost.

He was ok tonight.

Coulda been worse. If Haywood doesn’t charge with under 5 seconds to go we take the lead with no need to foul.

Getting one shot to drop or to the line for anyone who played and we win this game. Lot to nitpick, but way closer than I expected this game to be.

Nothing worse than losing. The margin is largely irrelevant.

They had this a a double digit loss. We nearly pulled it out in Memphis. They are not going to feel that confident coming into the Reynolds’s center.

Again what does it matter even if we win a few games unexpectedly?

What has TU basketball come to? Nothing like the program I fell in love with back in 1981.

Cept they will have Duren & Bates back then if they don't go down w/ covid again.

Duren is a game changer. With him tonight, Memphis wins much easier.

He doesn't need to score to be effective. Griffin and Horne need to score and we need just contributions from anyone else.

But I had to suffer through the Jim King years before we began rollin’ with Nolan.

They might have Duren and Bates come back but Road teams shoot differently at the Reynolds center.

We shoot differently at the Reynolds Center...and not in a good way. I always feel like we shoot better when we go to big arenas, like the BOK and the FedEx Forum. Must be something with the depth of the backdrops. I think seating rises too quickly behind the baskets and it messes with shooting.

True we do but generally other teams don’t shoot as well as they would normally. I feel pretty good even though we lost. I don’t know maybe it was a meal I had. Lol. Well we will see what Duren and Bates have in 3 weeks.
