Bam got hammered on that shot!

[16thBBall Fan]

Marshall got Morris out of there he knew he got away with his second last trip down.

[jlow]

Bam is getting pushed around so far in this game. Needs to put on his big boy pants

[16thBBall Fan]

They are not going to call a foul on Morris.

[16thBBall Fan]

Cats led 26-24 at the half.

[jlow]

Hawkins was our best offensive threat in the 1st half....go figure

[4chs]

You better man up in the paint today as it's no place for the weak.:eek:

[Voice of Reason]

Man up. No refs on the floor. Anything goes. Get strong, toughen up and go get em.

 

This is the story of the first half. That was as physical and bruising a half of basketball as I have seen in a long time. That favors Wichita IMO. One player to watch if this continues is Brisco. This is actually his kind of game.

Officials letting Morris do about anything he wants. Bam has been so focused on not picking up cheap fouls throughout the season, so now he can bang and doesn't.

What happen to the officials focusing on cutting put rough play so the offense is more fluid looking that has went out the window in this one so far.

Cats look tired.

My fear is Bam and the Cats adjust and all of a sudden the officials start calling it tight.

That's what I think

The way to find out is attack on offense. If they don't call anything on Wichita, then you have to assume it is still brawl ball. First two possessions should be attacks on the rim - drive it or get it down low to Bam. Let's see what the refs do with that.
