Herb gets the start

Let’s go boys!!!

 

[frazor]

They better bring the intensity.

 

[cpat4bama]

Just watch their warm ups in Instagram they seem loose

 

[mowens75]

Not good

 

[cpat4bama]

Wow no foul? Gary looks to be hurt bad

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Looks like Gary hurt his left shoulder. Alabama really can't afford that.

 

[cpat4bama]

He’s done for the night

 

[cpat4bama]

3 fouls the first 2;30 minutes

 

[frazor]

Finally a freakin foul call

 

[D Isaiah T Billings-Clyde7]

Just doesn’t even seem like we are trying to do what we do best lately. Instead just driving and throwing up bullshit around the rim that has no shot to go in.

 

[RammerJammer210]

Herb is killing us offensively of late

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Alabama has to get these slow starts figured out. This is getting rediculous

 

[shake_weight]

Do we even want to be in the tournament?

 

[cpat4bama]

How the hells that a jump ball when he has his arms wrapped around petty from behind lol these refs man

 

[mowens75]

How was that not a foul against Petty and Herb. needs to stop shooting for awhile.

 

[D Isaiah T Billings-Clyde7]

The horrible shots in the paint are driving me nuts. It’s not a good look just bc you are in the paint guys. Find someone to dish it to

 

[cpat4bama]

There’s Primo keep shooting it

 

[D Isaiah T Billings-Clyde7]

If there are 4 guys standing between you and the goal someone is open

 

[D Isaiah T Billings-Clyde7]

Better after a bad start. We HAVE to get 3 point looks. We can’t ignore that part of our game.

 

[frazor]

When their big is in Bama might as well launch it from half court. Gamecocks are begging us to go to the rim and we will lose that battle most times.

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

@BaselineLeaner4 good call on Primo so far.

 

[mowens75]

That’s the only time Rojas should attempt a shot when under the basket

 

[D Isaiah T Billings-Clyde7]

So much better driving and passing. We aren’t a good contested finish at the rim team

 

[frazor]

Playing hard now. Keep it up guys.

 

[D Isaiah T Billings-Clyde7]

Herb is one of my all time favorites, but he is playing like shit right now. If it’s due to injury sit him until it’s better.

We should zone the hell out of this Carolina team and make them take nothing but deep shots.

Also, I have never seen this many hurt players on a Bama basketball team.

"USC is not a good jump shooting team"-commentator

USC proceeds to hit every jump shot they take.

Must have missed last year

Herb needs to sit and rest. He’s been awful

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

South Carolina leads 29-28 with 5:02 remaining in the half in what has been a sloppy game.

Alabama has eight turnovers and South Carolina has seven.

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

According to SEC Network's telecast, Juwan Gary is out with a shoulder injury and is unlikely to return.

 

[D Isaiah T Billings-Clyde7]

Herb needs to sit and rest. He’s been awful

I mean his touches are almost exclusively leaving to negative results. Seriously

Just driving into the teeth of the defense or being weak with the ball in general.

 

[D Isaiah T Billings-Clyde7]

Everyone itt at me the next time Herb makes a play in offense that results in us scoring points. I’ll eat the crow.

 

[lgreene22]

Geez Rojas

 

[gdh1954]

Herb has zero explosiveness with his back injury man

 

[Bama!]

Spacing is bad tonight and we are dribbling into pressure
