What is this, a game of chicken? This is the game thread. Tip in a few minutes.
spectacular start
They can't miss, writing on the wall
Quote from: BASS on Mar 12, 2025, 12:05 PMspectacular start
Better than the last one against them. 😂
we just don't want the lead
aidoo needs to do more of that consistently
They love the 3. They will stop falling.
I love Billy Richmond but damn he gives me a heart attack anytime he is dribbling.

yeah, he needs to clean up the sloppiness
dumb play by brazile
The guy who needs to step up is Knox. He's gone completely AWOL.

True
keep feeding aidoo
great cut, great pass, gotta hit that reverse layup billy
Only 3 fouls for us, 6 for them. Lettin em play.
Maintaining a little lead without Richmond scoring much
And without Davis scoring
We got classic Brazile now
It took a whole season, but good Aidoo makes all the difference in the world.
good aidoo and brazile showed up today. let's keep it that way. hog call sounds good on tv.
Aidoo is killing it.
I'm loving it! I'm telling you these guys have good chemistry. They're congratulating and cheering for each other. These 7 are a team.
Thiero and Fland never had the chemistry. It's interesting.
Aidoo looks like the player we thought we were getting all along. Brazile too. Proud of them.
Fun to watch when they are playing like this
Add Thiero to this group playing like they are and we become a dangerous team. I don't see Fland fitting in. Hopefully he'll stay another year and try to be a team player.
Great half!
Aidoo's line - 14 pts (6-7 FG, 2-2 FT), 8 reb, and throw in a block and steal for good measure.

Fland ain't coming back. He's a guaranteed first round pick. He wasn't the problem with this team.
Quote from: Barton Fink on Mar 12, 2025, 12:54 PMGreat half!
Yes!!!
Copy and paste the last 7 responses here as what I woulda said. 😁

Nolan's teams always had a "garbage man" under the basket. Richmond fills that role pretty well.

He would 100% wreak havoc in Nolan's old system and fit that role well.
We're extremely active on defense and have defended without fouling.
z has a thumb
Helluva block
Here comes our scoring drought.
Here they come.

Nope. Richmond "sucks."
I earlier posted this in the SEC tourney thread. "Here's to us getting a 15 point lead and the game coming down to a last second shot for a win."
Time for us to shit the bed
They both hooked and holded at the same time.
20-9 run for usce
We ain't winning this game.
Wow. Nelly with the point blank layup. Not.
It's been a long long long time since we scored a FG. Z's two free throws are all I can remember in awhile.
Been over 6 minutes since we had a field goal.
Other than the FT's from Z it was at the 14:18 mark when we last made a FG. Don't think we've scored other than Z's FT's.
Quote from: Show-Me Hog on Mar 12, 2025, 01:42 PMIt's been a long long long time since we scored a FG. Z's two free throws are all I can remember in awhile.
Billy Richmond jumper at 14:18. Last fg we made.
Our ability to go into a scoring drought is impressive
It's like last game has returned. I hate this.
4 points in 10 minutes of play. My goodness.
Trying to finish this one the way we started the first game with them. Geez.
We are going to be two of SCs 3 wins.
We need a good out of bounds play.
Got to score to take the lid off.
We're going to have 2 or 3 guys foul out
This is really quite unbelievable.
If I hadn't seen it last time we played them.
I am not sure I want to make the tournament looking like this.
Even if we win, Ole Miss is going to destroy our anus tomorrow.
At least we'll have 20 wins.
We scored. They said never mind.
Looks good to me.
This is just awful. We don't deserve a seat the tourney looking like this
This is the kind of stretch, just like the first game, where I personally would honestly score more points by crossing half court and shooting hook shots every trip.
Brazile came back to life
Murder the ref for that foul call
BS call.
Yeah we're getting hosed pretty hard with these calls.
Ain't nobody scared of Cal.
Brazile again. Without the ball he's been everywhere lately
We gonna lose on a last second shot by SC. Unless we hit a three this time. Or get an offensive rebound on a missed shot.
Quote from: Son of Spam on Mar 12, 2025, 02:10 PMWe gonna lose on a last second shot by SC. Unless we hit a three this time.
This
We're going to turn it over on the inbounds aren't we
Great play call
WHEW Pig Sooie
TB is the MVP today
I noticed our bench guys are wearing shirts that say "Nothing easy"
So we have scored 23 points in the second half.
Announcer jinx
Damn we are dumb.
Oh my gosh.
Are we going to Michigan it and call a TO we don't have?
USCE is the best 2-16 in SEC history.
I think our guys are tired.
We went from "can't make a basket" to "can't miss a basket"
Quote from: Son of Spam on Mar 12, 2025, 02:17 PMSo we have scored 23 points in the second half.
After a half of scoring more than any other team in sec play this season, according to announcers.
We be dancing!
So much about that second half didn't make any sense at all.
We're done boys. Easy loss to Ole Miss tomorrow, maybe we'll draw a good team in the first round of the tournament and can get one more win out of this team.

All things considered, I'm good with that. I think our guys have hit a wall. They need a break.
We will be a draw no one will want to see.
I don't think there's any amount of points that is going to keep me from taking Ole Klan tomorrow.
yeah, don't need to make a deep run. our seeding is pretty much set and we're gassed.
Interesting to see what's going on with Z. We basically played with 6 in the second half.
Dang it I missed jinxing this shit out of us by watching
But at least I killed A state
Quote from: Barton Fink on Mar 12, 2025, 02:23 PMI think our guys are tired.
Just wait until tomorrow.
We win 1. Now get out.
Rest. The real season starts next week.
Great coaching job by Cal getting this group to 20 wins.
We'll lose tomorrow, probably shoot 14%
NCAA will be the same. Win game 1, lose game 2
We don't have the stamina

I listened to the second half while driving between Little Rock and Texarkana.
Listening to our radio team narrate our absolute collapse while cursing out semi drivers without being able to get on here and bitch was excruciating.

We must have passed each other on I-30.

Very strange game. Not sure i have ever seen a team go 10+ minutes without a single field goal.
Quote from: jdcatty on Mar 12, 2025, 04:15 PMVery strange game. Not sure i have ever seen a team go 10+ minutes without a single field goal.
We've gone 60 full minutes without a field goal many times on the gridiron. Just sayin'.
I mean, the year certainly didn't go like I hoped it would, but after the injuries and start, ending up 20-12...I'll fucking take it.
Lose your leading scorer...another guy steps up. Then HE gets hurt and another guy steps up.
I think one of the big issues is that we didn't start with like 12 dudes. If we were down to 9-10 guys instead of 7, things wouldn't be so dire. I think Cal will learn from this, but can't be too upset with how things have gone.
Why are yall still following basketball.
I'm heard we weren't making the tournament this year.
It's baseball season baby!!!

Just say you don't know ball, bro...I have it on excellent authority from a ball knower that we aren't making the tourney this year.
Remembering one play that was humorous only because we won.
At some point during the long second half when we weren't scoring, South Carolina threw a 3/4 court inbound pass directly to Z. And it just.....went through him? Somehow? To the Gamecock player behind him.
Even Z right after the play looked like, what just happened? It was like it was a hologram of Z, and the ball simply passed right through his arms and hands without being deflected in any way whatsoever. It was an impressive feat, even if that's what you were trying to do.
