*****TCU vs. TEXAS Game Thread*****

[Jameson McCausland]

Sims is stepping up with Bamba on the bench with foul trouble. Horns lead 35-28

Despite the inconsistent offense Texas has shown throughout the season, the defense has usually always been there. Not tonight. Lots of miscommunications and men being left wide open.

Coleman pushing the ball up the floor is great!

Team looks much more fluid tonight. 

 

[MikeV73]

Good pressure on defense last series, covered the three line but crazy bank shot made.

Team looks much more fluid tonight. 

Pacific time zone representing!

 

[Jameson McCausland]

The alley-oop to Sims seems to be working well tonight. 

 

[MikeV73]

This is earily like our last game's first half.  Let's hope we can show up for the second half.  Nice free throws by Bamba.

 

[Jameson McCausland]

Texas leads 43-33 at the half. One of the best offensive halves the Longhorns have had in a while. Coleman looks very comfortable.

 

[MikeV73]

Liking Sims.  Just think how good he can if he develops a post up game down low, mid range shot.

 

[joeywa]

Sims really stepping up his game. Really playing with some purpose tonight. 

 

[Jameson McCausland]

This is some of the best basketball Texas has played all season. Horns up 51-38

Bamba playing under the offensive rim cleans the glass and gets the putback. Somebody needs to glue his shoes to the paint. That’s where he can shine.

Tighter D on the three point line thus far...keep up the pressure!

Exactly, no more camping out at the top of the key please Bamba.  Let the other guys throw picks on the perimeter and get down low.

Here we go with the quick trigger in the second half again.  We are leading....run an offense.

 

[Jameson McCausland]

If Fisher is able to stay on the court for TCU, the Horned Frogs will stay in this game. And as I type this...he hits a 3. 54-48 Texas lead

 

[MikeV73]

Dylan forcing way too much over the last few weeks.  He needs to be coached to play a role not to force the game.  You are not Lebron my friend.  Good lead slipping away...again.

 

[MikeV73]

Stop the ball!  Easy

layups are not cool.

 

[Jameson McCausland]

Beautiful pass from Young to Dylan O. Young, Febres, Coleman and Davis have all looked good tonight.

 

[MikeV73]

Another chucked three there...need to learn how to play with a lead.
