[GrandGreen]

NT playing best half in a long time, ahead of a good Tulane team 39-21 at half.

Game being streamed on NT site. Much better feed than NT's, although announcer is more than a little irritating.

It took a lot of effort to lose this game.

[NT03]

Smh

[GrandGreen]

Up 18 at half, score 16 the whole second half.

I hate when teams with big leads, try to take time of the clock and lose all momentum.

[Andrew]

Did they lose at the buzzer? I thought they were up 2 with just seconds left

Again it took effort to lose, up 2 with 10 seconds to go.

Foul their best player, who makes first and misses second; which the shooter taps to Tulane player right under basket who scored winning shoot

[Mean Green Matt]

NT BBall is painful all around currently.

Was the foul intentional?

[THOR]

Must be the players fault...

[GrandGreen]

Was the foul intentional?

No, but the second half was a complete meltdown and I think a lot of it was suspect coaching. Playing a delay game with in general a bad ball handling group IMO is not good strategy. With Tulane pressing, they were challenged to get the ball down court; then trying to let the clock run usually resulted in a turnover or a bad shot. Of course, they almost won and if they had; I guess I would not complain.
