I'm at work so have just been checking the score, honestly I'm very pleased to be within 3 at the half. For anyone watching or listening, how's it looking, sounding?

I am listening to the game at work.

B-Hop has been huge with 16 first half points.

Sounds like we have turned the ball over quite a bit and missed some easy shots. As usual, our interior defense has broken down a few times and we have given up some easy layups.

I'm really happy to be down 3.

1st half - happy to be down by only 3 pts as well. I could have gotten ugly but SMU hit some key 3 pointers by Pearson and Hop. Hop has played pretty well and Simpson hit some open jumpers. Castro hasn't played all that well so far.

Comes down to keeping Nevada in check on 3 pointers.(Okeson) Nevada seems to have trouble with the zone defense. I would like to see Pearson play more minutes in the 2nd half. He seems to be playing good D and barely missed a monster dunk - can't wait for this kid next year.
