Leaving points at the free throw line.

FT shooting is abysmal today. We are 1 of the last 3, but both misses were the front end, so really 1-5. Not going to do it against quality teams. Johnson went Rice on the Baylor guard.

Johnson is so good.

Spears playing a lot today! Also Matas has been harassed all game

Texas 39-36 at half

Nice by Johnson to end the 1H with some FT momentum for the team.

Our defense is going to smother them in the 2H, we are just so much bigger than them, but our bigs need to stop bringing the ball down to their waists.

I think we have adjusted to their quickness, and they are getting horrible looks in the paint because of the massive size difference.

The more Johnson and Goosby get to the line, the higher the team free throw percentage will be.

Texas needs to invert in 2nd half .. post Punch more

Freeman has to go get in the second half on O .. a little too

@Gerry Hamilton I see what you mean about Lewis. Getting absolutely nothing from Freeman, Evans, Bo, and Sterling. We need that one extra reliable half court shot creator.

Not sure he did much at all. I believe he had three assists. Sterling coming in before Ogden. I thought he held up well.

Freeman will get most of his points on fast breaks, offensive rebound putbacks, and cutting to the basket. I don’t think he’s much of a 3-point shooting threat.

Yep. It's going to be an issue in non-con as Goosby and others get more experience. It's all on Johnson to be a shot creator late in clock, and against tough D

He's got to keep attacking though .. getting shot to the rim for this team is smart

Love the ceiling of this team ... win or lose

They get Mikey back, and grow the young guys .. they will be very good in Feb/March IMO

Great play to get Freeman an easy shot.

Is Baylor's Chatman related to our Chatman?

Three early fouls by Baylor.

Bad call on Matas...

Flopping like a fish.

That is a flop and should be a technical on the Baylor player.

Matas didn't touch him. Baylors guy has been watching too much LeBron...

Sloppy

Got to invert the O

Punch would score in the post

Johnson worth every penny
