Gator Basketball Florida beats Xavier 70-65

[Gatorphan]

It isn't the tempo that is the problem. UVA was slow but efficient on offense. Actually, they were very good on offense. We are not. We do so little off the ball movement. It kills us.

It’s November dude

Florida is up 12-11 at the under 12 timeout. 2 more turnovers by Glover. Turnovers everywhere do far

I'm glad Marshall is sitting

 

[stephenPE]

me too

6 turnovers in 8:30

Florida is tied at 17-17 at the the under 8 timeout. Blackshear is getting destroyed by Xavier's D resulting in more turnovers

 

[gatorev12]

We're frustrating them with good defense...but we either turn it over ourselves or take poor shots and haven't been able to put on a sustained run.

If we put together a strong run, I think this game is ours for the taking. You can tell Xavier is tired from their double OT game on Friday and the frantic pace tonight.

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is up 28-23 at the under 4 timeout. We are playing more under control. Need to keep this going into half

 

[LeeForThree]

Some beautiful plays off of Blackshear at the top of the key. Resulted in an open made 3pter by Nembhard and a dunk by Keyontae

T called on assistant...straight bull****

...that is straight up horsechit. An asst waving his hand is a technical from a guy across the court?!?

The stripes can go fvvk themselves.

Lewis skies in for a recovery block at the end of the half; Gators up 10 pts: 39-29.

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is up 39-29 at the half. The players are fired up after a huge block by Scottie.

In the meantime White is going at the officials for a bull **** delay of game call by TV teddy and then a t called on an assistant for waving his hand in disgust after a ticky tac foul

I like the poise, energy and ball movement

Last 7 half’s we have scored at least 38 5 times. Despite still not pushing tempo.

Yes, but we've challenged with drives down the middle a lot more

I think the team is starting to come together. Playing so much better. Look more engaged.

I like the attacking and looking for Blackshear.

 

[SeabeeGator]

We like to complain about pace but this place would be apoplectic if we won 48-45 like UVA did over ASU today. That’s horribly boring basketball no matter how you slice it. Who raised these coaches to love boring basketball?

The whole team is more aggressive and much less passive
