These last two wins have been very nice to have, grateful after some not so great times the last few weeks. Now if they can win this weekend and/or collect the last infinity stone vs OU that'll feel really good.

Hell, if you told me we would be 9-6 in the league and 21-7 overall, ranked #14 and competing for a 2/3 seed in the dance I'd lmao in your face and ask you what you were on. Truly blessed.

My hope is we what we've seen the last 2 games is not a mirage and we really are getting TOs under control and starting to play quality defense. Improvements in those two areas as well as continued solid rebounding could make us a contender for the FF.

They kept talking about assists during the broadcast and my kiddo was asking me what an assist was and then I got to show her a bunch of beautiful examples, chief of which was #1 to #11 for a gorgeous reverse layup.

Very fun win for the Cats.

Warm up the dunk counters again, sheesh, they were angry at the rim tonight. That was a vintage December/January performance tonight.

Post by: MakeItRain on February 22, 2023, 01:31:10 AM
Our guy Cam Bam was awesome defensively and going to the rim, he shouldn't shoot another 3 the rest of the season, then make 500 a day each summer until he can shoot another one. He's going to be a great player but I am definitely a better shooter than he is.

Drew was wearing his big brothers hand me down shirt last night. It was huge on him.  Which worked to his benefit since we pantsed him.

I really enjoyed watching the 4-guard lineup that the Cats used for much of the game. Desi seems to have a strong interest in rebounding. I'm pretty LBBIQ but it seemed like the offense was getting much better looks for most of the game.

I hadn’t realized this going into the game but Baylor is dead last in the league defensively.  I think that contributed quite a bit to our offense performance.

That makes a bunch of sense.  We scored 42 pts in the paint.

Yes, it's way too much because the shooting is what Rod did the best and what Desi does the worst. I'm not sure what you're left with when you have a poor shooting Rodney McGruder. Desi doesn't defend as well as Rod did either.

Or rebound. Rod was the equivalent of a 5-tool baseball player. Desi is like a utility man with tons of swagger and tenacity. Rod was very stoic. Desi wears his jyc attitude/heart on his sleeve.

The cell phones, the cutting of the lights. Great stuff.

I do NOT like the process of *opposing timeout* into 30 seconds of buildup before sandstorm crescendo.  Fistpumping should be happening within a few seconds of the timeout, IMO.  I think you lose some of it when you take the time between the timeout to get out your cell phone and turn on your flashlight and sway around for half a minute. Just my IMHO.

The Sandstorm craze/noise lasted well into play, right up until a ticky tack foul was called on us during Baylor's first possession after the time out.  If we didn't get that foul called, our fans may have ended Baylor's chances right then and there.

Weak Big 12, and some unfortunate losses in the non-con. Also a 1-4 record vs top 25. Were 57 in kenpom.

Such a memorable and fun season. Doom was born in 2006-07. Happy those Wooly guys got to experience it.
