Green Bay 2/6/23

That Freeman made free throw should count towards the all time Panthers record. Not his fault the refs weren’t paying attention.

GB ends the half the same way it started: the greatest gift of a lucky bounce

[tyrunner0097]

A lot of our guys have Ben Simmons syndrome: giving up an easy bucket for an unnecessary pass.

Another terrible first half. That’s 3 terrible first halves in our last 4 games. It’s not like Green Bay is even playing well. They’re not. They look every bit of a team with 2 wins in mid February. It’s just that the Panthers are looking like that too.

We forgot that this is a rivalry and their Coach is from Milwaukee. Plus, The Mullet and Tucker are playing for transfer portal clips. We underestimated this bunch.

Bro, Rand needs to grow up.  We don't know what he said, but you can see the reaction of all the players instantly and the ref doesnt even hesitate to tech him.  Don't taunt or say some wild stuff, especially when you already have 2 fouls, you HAVE to be smarter.  This is not refs inserting themselves into a game, this is our guy being dumb asf. 

This is Division 1 basketball, not middle school. Unless you say something absolutely egregious, you should not be getting T'd up for talking a little sh*t, especially when the game isn't exactly super chippy. 

Why would you assume that he didn't say something egregious?  Everyone around reacted exactly like he did.  Also, Rand has been a consistently dumb player, so making a bad on court decision is EXACTLY what he is most consistent doing.  That's his brand as a player.  He's a super athlete and our other big man options are EXTREMELY limited at best so he has to play.

Frustrating first half. Expecting us to come out like we always do in the second half. Not worried.

GB shooting 32%, 28% from 3, 66% from the line
They're being outrebounded by 12

We're shooting slightly better in all categories, other than the line - where we're 7-12. I have no idea how it's a 3 point game, looking at the stats.

Good news is, we tend to play with more defensive intensity in the second half, the Phoenix are short-handed, have foul trouble, and played Saturday.

Conference game. We're playing for a title. Only one set of numbers will matter in the end. Just do it!

I’m expecting a strong 2nd half. Let’s do this.

Hmmm....

[Duct_Tape_Pounce]

Not a good start. A humiliating start to the half, as a matter of fact. This is pathetic.

[chipanthers45]

It seems like every single time we have a decent crowd we throw up an absolute stinker of a game.

Need to turn it on now!

[buppie05]

We are playing better this half as expected. GB isn’t going to keep hitting these guarded 3’s. They will come back to the mean. We need to keep up the hustle.
