It was a good look...just because you are accustomed to seeing a PG who won't shoot the ball, doesn't mean it is a bad shot...kind of makes you need to be defended on the floor you know....if you'll shoot from three...

Dawson's play in the first half wasn't anything special in any way...same as what we've seen from Derrick all year long..

Thing is, Dawson could have had that same look 20 seconds later into the shot clock.  It was not a good shot as he took it way too early in the shot clock.

So lots of Mayo and lots of Burton, a little less Derrick and we are on the losing end so far.  Interesting.  This season's disappointment has been primarily due to JWilson's very unproductive season more than anything else.  And this is exhibit A for the reason why Mayo is not a point guard.  Too many silly turnovers.

He was wide open.  If you're wide open, shoot it.

I have no problem with that shot. Came early in the clock but it was wide open and in rhythm.

Soooooo, what's in the glass tonight?

Gonna break out the Pendleton now.  Might have double.

Seattle/Portland has great micro brews so it's all Bridgeport Hop Czar tonight.

Can't we ever get an easy one?  This game feels like we should be up big.
Shut this board down at the opening tip.  If they win, open it back up.  If they lose, keep it shut it down until the next morning.  - Sultan of Slurpery

Started with some Sawtooth (beer), moved to a cheap Malbec with my steak, back to Sawtooth, and I'll probably break out the Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey win or lose.

How many times this year have we made a run after half and sustained it this year? CO is a nonfactor and he should
be dominating the rebounds when hes in. They look like they are ready to go home..

They just showed the replay of the hard foul on Gardner.  He was certainly shooting.

agree. he was calling for the ball and definitely in rhythm.  if he nails it the reaction on this thread is entirely different.  gotta shoot wide open 3s unless its late game/half and you're bleeding clock or unless the player is not a capable 3-point shooter.

When I saw Buzz actually changed the starters I broke out the Macallan. If it was the same old I had planned on drinking Sam Adams

Hard to quantify this game...we shot real well...turnovers need to be limited...get Gardner more touches...no more Juan..

Todd obviously had some extra buttery popcorn as his pregame snack. Clean those hands man and hang onto the ball!

For goodness sake someone take the ball hard at Christon so he picks up a couple more fouls! He is killing us.

Double OT, we win by one, you saw it here first!

Maybe losing Jamil next year will be addition by subtraction.

Come on Buzz, its do or die.  Get Otule out of there and put in the OX.  

Jamil is brutal and just got facialized on dunk and then a walk t/o.
