@magic33number It sure does fill a hole on the team way better that I expected.

Well…that’s not true.

Coach Sampson knows ball better than I do. The more I watch, the more I see joe he’s such a great fit on the Cougars.

Unexpectedly excited to have him on the team.

Pronounced Dee-Dawn. Got it.
Are we calling hi Dee-Dawn or DJ? I'm good with either.

I didn't know a whole lot about him until recently.
Now I know a lot more.

And I'm excited.

He feels like a combo Kingston and Uzan.
And I don't hate that AT ALL.

I'm out. It just means too much to watch it end like this.

If Houston makes a miraculous comeback, I'll own it.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Buckle Up buttercups!
Play Cougar basketball.
Survive and advance.
win.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Hold them till the end.....and then let them get the rebound with a foul. down 15 with 10 to play.

Tugler with 4 fouls.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Houston is just not getting enough second chance points on offesnive rebounds.

Considering we're missing most of our shots - that'd be great if we could.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

shit

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Uzan has to hit a floater
Cenac has to hit a jumper
Kingston has to hit a jumper
Sharp has to hit a 3
Miller has to hit something
McCarty has to show up

4 points this half just Suuuuuucks.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Ok coogs. Time for a run. If not....<sigh>

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Live and die with the freshman I guess.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Illinois is driving and dishing. Getting wide open shots.
Gotta get back in it.

We are stopping their three. But their bigs are outplaying ours in the paint.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Cougar defense in the paint has been pathetic tonight.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Sure would be nice if Uzan would hit some floaters.

So.....In a little while, Houston is going to have to just hit their free-throws.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Boswell with his third.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Wagler heating up. Gotta stop that.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

SECOND HALF

TIED! CENAC from Flemings. That was a set call from Sampson.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

KINGSTON finishes it RIGHT!!

Worst offensive half for Houston this year.

And we're down 2?

lol. Ok. Do your halftime thing Coach!

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Sakho should have DUNKED it.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Sharp! Big 3 off a cenac offensive rebound.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Somebody has to step up and consistently hit something.

They're taking Sharp out of the game and waiting for someone else to step up.

nobody is.

[CoogSteve @CoogSteve]

Gotta get some points off these turnovers.

These TV timeouts 10 seconds after a called timeouts need to be fixed.
