not looking good Tre is cold, X is tuning it over, Butler hitting their foul shots.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

Butler has outscored X 10-0 on points off TO's in the 2H.
Killer.

Thankfully. They've had 7 more fouls called at home. However, X is playing horse again except for Sumner, while Butler is making a concerted effort to go to the hole, so I expect that gap to close.

Martin and Savage have 4 fouls but Butler has too much depth.
With this game's pace, 7 pts seems like double that with 7 to play.
X continues to be out rebounded in total. -4

The problems with X this year.
1. when teams get physical they wilt.
2. No mental toughness
3. No inside presence
4. Tough time making free throws
This team has the talent. Lots of it. But, I think it lacks toughness and in this league you have to have it.

4 fouls on Tre.
Down 8 with just over 6 to play.
