Shame X couldn't keep a double-digit lead at halftime. 7 points have been the number a couple of times this year that they gave up. I hope the guys come out smoking hot because it looks like SH has started to score don the end. They have 14 offensive rebounds and 2 more total rebounds. That little flurry at the end for SH getting second-chance points is keeping them close, considering they are shooting 25% from the field

Gytis parents and sister are in the Cintas, too bad that he got 2 fouls and hasn't played much
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.

Great defensive first half. Feels like we should be up by 15 though. i have to admit I didn't think Olivari was this good. He is playing good defense too. Ousmane is really coming on too. Much better than I thought. We Need a lot more from Claude. We also need McKnight to pick it up. The Hall is not going to shot 25% in the second half. Love it that we only had 4 turnovers. This is a winnable game. Seton Hall seemed to sleep walk in the first half. Go X

Ousmane came to play today. Him and Olivari are saving us. We are getting hammered on the offensive boards. Put Ciani in.,

we need someone outside Des or McKinght or Gytis stepping out to make some shots. Gytis doesn't show us his scoring ability because he doesn't take enough shots

Green is providing a nice boost. Happy to see some shoots go down for him. He had a nice assist too.

Nice to see Abou, Mcknight and Green picking up the scoring in this half

Typical fans not staying till the end. Double-Double with only one foul from Abou, Quincy is the leading scorer with 29 and 7 rebounds McKnight has a nice game with assists and 15 points and 10 assists

The UConn win overhang for SH and like I said shoot less than 35 % from field you don't win

Really good rebound game. We are so much better at home. Olivari is on fire. Ousmane was terrific. Amazing to see us win by 20 and have Claude have a off night. Miller had the team ready. Great game. Merry Christmas everyone.

Shaheen in his radio interview:

“We just didn’t have it. It’s disappointing after obviously a big game on Wednesday. Our guys just were satisfied."

“This is an old-fashioned butt-kicking. We didn’t put our best foot forward and we came out and we got our butts kicked period
