Its kind of strange to see us ahead early. We’re not playing well but Temples playing worse.

We’re playing fine. Obviously the game plan is to pound it low and our defense has been really really good. Only 1 open shot for Temple and they missed. Everything else has been tightly contested and we’ve rebounded well so no 2nd chances

21-0. Defense is absolutely smothering. Feet are moving, communication, the rotations are spot on.

And Corey is having one of those games. And we’re doing whatever we want inside.

This media timeout couldn’t have come soon enough for Temple because Dunphy was a bucket away from having to call a 2nd TO this half

There may not be a ton of people here, but this building is amped right now

21-0 at the under 12 TO.

We came READY TO PLAY today. Henderson’s lights out shooting has certainly helped too, he has 11 points already.

Little ragged. May be one of those times Haith needs to suspend his autobench rule

People been bagging on Scott all season. Extremely high b-ball IQ and very savvy in creating his own space and shot.

Anybody know the record for the most unanswered points to start a game? I seem to remember TU going 15-0 against Rhode Island. I think it was the first game of the Elite Eight season.

Should be more. We went stagnant on offense. D is still playing really well. Minimal contributions from the 2 best players and a 15 pt lead at half. We need to come out pedal to the metal in the 2nd half and make it a celebration.

I like the 15 point lead at half but they cut 9 points off the early lead. We need to put them away when we come out for the second.

Yeah it was right in front of me - looked clean to me.

Angle on replay was bad. It was two feet out of his hand when blocked. Not a goal tend at all.

I may be a liberal lawyer, but I got a distinct redistributive wealth vibe from these officials after we were up 24-0. Those were some crappy calls..

We need to look to break every time we get the ball. Temple has not looked good at all at getting back on defense when we run.
