Sparty is in a cold snap but they're still up 7. Not a good sign.

 

[scarletmike]

Well, I guess being down 7 at the half isn't too bad, considering. Hopefully Sparty stays cold in the 2nd half and the Bucks start getting their shots to fall.

Problem was their cold snap coincided with one of our own

 

[scarletmike]

And now Sparty is back to "hit everything" mode.

And now Sparty is back to "hit everything" mode.

And hack everything mode on the inside. We're going to have to shoot 3's because they are getting away with a ton of contact on the inside

 

[scarletmike]

Game over.

 

[scarletmike]

So close to turning this one off, but I've never done that with a game, so I guess I'll just hope Sparty puts the scrubs in too soon?

 

[scarletmike]

Semi-serious question: Why even bother guarding them? I'm convinced you could swat the ball and it would magically bounce back and into the basket.

 

[scarletmike]

Kam with the jam!

 

[dragurd]

Sparty is very good and it doesn't help when they are allowed to play very physical defense with very few fouls. They are playing the same way as Penn St but not called on it nearly as often. Some of that is legitimately being better. The other bit is reputation

 

[scarletmike]

That's not an intentional!!!

I swear...

EDIT: Good, just a normal foul.

 

[dragurd]

Nice effort giddens make them earn it hard but clean

 

[dragurd]

Love Gidden's and Cam's effort the last few mins

 

[scarletmike]

Damn, that's 3 for Giddens. Need Kam to light the fuse and hit a few.

 

[dragurd]

That last sequence about sums up this game
