Can we not play Kanter and Omara/Jones at the same time and work that inside out game between them?

X is down 12 at the half
Shot 2-8 from 3 while Nova shot 6-17.
Butler made 15 3's at a 68% clip and only beat Nova by 8 and at home as well.
Someone or someones need to make some 3's in the 2H.
Thought Kanter should have seen more than 8 minutes of play.
Yep Kanter needs more minutes. Once again Nazi And Scruggs playing like (not very good) freshmen.

I agree. I think Kanter needs more minutes and with his game he should be the X factor in this type of a game with his inside out shooting!!

23 points in a half doesn't get you many wins and having Scruggs the high scorer also means someone if not shooting well enough tonight. Hope X can turn this around and recover their mojo.
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.

We are not getting any quick baskets. No breakouts tonight.

Bridges starts the second half the same way he started the game with a 3.
