Breen&Clyde pointed out that there were 8.5 secs left, so need for Bullox to take a desperation style 3. Reg defended a lot of possessions with 5 fouls the last 6+ mins.
B2B 41 min games for Randle.
Fatigued Knix with a 14 point 4Q.
Thybull, Korkmaz and Scurry led the '6er comeback.
Thybull with 3 blocks and a steal in 18 mins, but it seemed like more.
One steal he reached around and poked the ball away from Randle from behind. There was another play, where Thy scooped up Burks' low inbound pass that got away from Randle (right after Randle crash-landed due to the Howard block). I guess they didn't give Thybulle a steal on that, though the ball was loose and he got to it first. The guy hustles.
There were a lot of terrific defensive plays all night.
Also, resulting in some sloppy offensive possessions.
The refs let them play, and we got a good battle out of that, with plenty of contact.
The first half was a bit of a slog.
But the 2nd half was exciting.
Fun to see two physical teams go at it.
Franc was fairly useless. 0-4 FG, but 2 misses were airballs.
What did folks think of the no PG stretch mid 4Q?
Ordinarily I might applaud such a move, but with Randle and RJ wearing down, not sure I liked it. Burks not a PG. Where was Ty Haliburton when we needed him ...?
