| GAME THREAD #6 Alabama @ North Dakota St. - Nelson’s Double-Double Lifts Tide Past North Dakota, 97-90

Shit through a tin horn game?

I'm not watching, but watching the Gamecast on ESPN and to me it seems like Sears cannot simply ever get off a last second shot at Half. Ever.

Reminds me of those auburn guards from a few years back, it was always a disaster for them in the final seconds of a half. Sears is just as bad. He thinks he's Michael Jordan and ends up looking like Michael J Fox.

The D is pitiful often this year. I don’t know if they haven’t bought in to that guy from the NBA or what. But we’ve had long stretches of NBA-looking defense.

The '21 and last seasons had roster limitations as to why they couldn't defend. There's literally no excuse for this shit. We have to bigs who should be protecting the rim better. We have length and athleticism from our guards and wings. It's on both coaching and the players.

Oats has had elite defenses. I don't know why this team won't get it together.

Stevenson finally hit a 3

Jesus christ nothing bad about that D by Reid. That dude is on fire.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Nice ball movement

 

[Bammerboy321]

Man they are attacking the shit out of Reid on defense. His positioning had been awful tonight.

Still didnt see it. Had it on the Bowl game during HT.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Holloway!

 

[Bammerboy321]

Holy fucking shit Cliff. Play some fucking defense dude.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Nelson plays with all heart and tenacity. Cliff does absolutely nothing but stare at the opposition and slam his hand down to foul.

 

[Bammerboy321]

We're getting into a groove on offense but jesus these guys just don't want to play on the otherside. It's an effort problem.

 

[50+yeartidefan]

Damn bud you drinking?

Yep
Look behind bama bench

 

[bama alum]

7 - 0 run. What a coincidence with Philon in the game.

 

[EasyTider]

This is not a Final 4 team

 

[50+yeartidefan]

They hit 4. 3s in a row. Good way to stay in game

 

[bamafan9201]

The weird fouls inside our paint while blocking out are hurting us they keep missing and then getting the ball right back. Need to box out better but those calls are not being called on the other end.

Second half. Pretty good game
