[QUOTE="The Dave, post: 1436609, member: 622843"] I think the outcome was actually pretty reasonable. The main reason we had such a lead at halftime was that they score less than 10 points in the first 10 minutes. While some of that was due to defensive pressure, some of it was also due to them missing free throws and lots of wide-open 3's (and some 2's). That "bad luck" in the first half wasn't likely to carry over for the entire game. Combine that with us being short so many players (5?) and the guys get gassed and lose a little focus. I think given the situation, the opponent, and the flow of the game it was a completely reasonable outcome in the 2nd half. [/QUOTE]
