You are right about dumb ,bad basketball, Bad basketball could cover ,among other things , poor effort. Herb and JQ. 8 turnovers in the first half.
Game thread: No. 8 Alabama at Georgia
- Thread starter Tony_Tsoukalas
- Start date
Those wins have come against the dregs of the league - Vandy, South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi State, and the boogs, Teams who sit at 9, 1O, 11, 12, and 14 in the league standings.
We figure ways to win but the tournament tends to punish poor play extra brutally.
MY GOD HERB! This is why he is so frustrating. Damn unstoppable on the drive all the sudden after a month of getting his shit stuffed at the rim. Where has this been?
Alabama is on a 6-0 run and leads Georgia 45-38 with 15:39 to play.
Going back to the first half, the Tide is on a 21-2 run.

Final three minutes yet to be played, but what I've seen is the best officiated game perhaps ever. These two teams playing hard, and everything is not a foul. This is how games should go. This kind of contest opens your eyes to just how bad officiating screws up games more often than not.

Night and day difference in focus and effort from 1st half and 2nd half. 30 points scored in first half is doubled in 2nd half thanks to hot 3 point shooting and Quinerly. 59 point 2nd half.
The 2nd half team can win some games.

You will note I wrote "thus far." He turned it around, but the first half was not pretty.
Nate Oats just revealed that Jordan Bruner had surgery on both his knees this year, hence the delay in his return earlier this season.
I am just about to watch the game, long day of travel ball so now getting the chance. For my own entertainment I will post ITT as if the game was just going on.
I'm watching now as stated, this is a very bad UGA team and right now Bama is down 14. You can bump all you want, but this team has taken advantage of a fairly weak SEC. The good teams they have played in the last month, they have lost to.
No doubt they played like shit in the first half, but the sign of a good team is that keep playing with effort and overcome adversity to win a meaningless game on the road. That’s whythe game is 40 minutes long.
I agree with you that we haven’t looked as good since the January blitz, but the defensive effort and intensity, which travels even when shots aren’t falling, has never wavered. That’s why they’re sitting at 16-2 in what is actually a fairly strong conference if you look at Kenpom ratings.
Unless they have a first round exit in the NCAA tourney, this team will far exceed my expectations coming into the year.

We know how to win. But the slow starts and 5 minute stretches where we completely lose our way, refuse to call timeout, and allow a 10-20 point swing for the opponent is a bad habit if it comes up in either of the coming tournaments. We are good enough to make a run but even in wins we have played really bad at times.
I love this team and it’s really impressive that they have been able to fight through the last month without falling apart. We played bad enough to lose games we shouldn’t have, but found ways to get the W, which is impressive, and something I hope carries us in the postseason.
my biggest fear is allowing a 15-0 run at some point in the first 10 minutes of a game and not being able to climb back up the mountain.
Played? I'm a church league MVP candidate as we speak.
I all seriousness, yeah I played and still play although it's nowhere near the level these kids are playing at.
