We’re just a very poor box out team. Oso gets bodied and pushed out of position quite often. As instinctive as Kur is defending his man and blocking, he’s not really quick or strong on the glass. Plus poor hands.

Tough loss but not discouraging. A game we probably should’ve won on the road against a good team.

Muggsy, they did hack him.   He powered through.    He is a grown man.

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

No question they let them play all game, but how is Watson allowed to literally throw Kur to the ground before his and-one with 44 seconds left?  👀

I’ve watched this probably a dozen times in a row and the more I watch it the less it seems like a foul on Watson. Kur’s feet are so damn spread out like he is doing the splits before the 3 even went up. He’s practically immobilized at that point and then just loses his balance and falls down.

Particularly galling if you live in RI. If I hear PC announcer Joey Hassett say Friazz one more team instead of Friars I’m gonna lose it. Good effort Warriors!  The best is yet to come!

Yes but you still find a way to hack him imo.  You play with ferocity, force, and power with the game on the line.

Violence!?!

I'm not gonna quote NLW (who may be sexist as well as racist) but the women's team is not soft.

Today’s game really came down to poor shooting.  There were so many chances in the first half to push the lead to double digits and the offense just wasn’t there.  During the lockdown defensive stretch MU was unable to separate.  The missed layups were frustrating as well.  There were numerous misses from in close.

We got pushed around when it mattered Spaniel.  I was disappointed we didn't find a way to rebound and grab the ball to close the game out.  But in general I'm a fan of attacking with clarity and authority.  We did not do either today.

No doubt we had a plethora of chances to extend the lead and perhaps put it out of reach with some buckets.

The game was great and all, but anyone know how the bowling turned out?

That was a beautiful promo by Fanta.

Not sure if it’s been discussed but I thought Fanta was great on the call. Much more subdued than other outlets and extremely knowledgeable (not surprising) while understanding and discussing certain game situations.
