Is this the first game ever played in Memphis?

Because their fans acted like they had never witnessed fundamental rules of the game being officiated. Granted, nothing was sweeter than hearing boos echoing on almost every possession for a good 10 minutes of the first half.

The Fouls were on their Guards because they were determined to get in Nic Moore's face

Nic was being held on his cuts from the first minute of the game. I thought for a minute he was going to get a technical early in the first half for complaining about it.

Their was one woman who kept yelling 'flagrant, flagrant' every time something happened. I don't think I have ever been scared of an opposing teams fan ever until this lady got going.

They were projecting their frustrations about the season on the refs. Even the announcers were getting irritated by the booing by the end of the first half, lol

I wasn't impressed with the officiating, but I thought the bad calls evened out.

They definitely cheered when he went down.

I love Len and MP. I grew up listening to them call ACC/Big East games.
