We need to withstand this run by Murray and right the ship as we are down 27-18 with six minutes to go in the half. Crucial stretch for us.

Happy about many things from our team -- but when a guy like Anderson gets hot, we need to be on him like glue -- coaches need to adjust.

Turnovers (6 or us, 2 for MSU), points in the paint (14-6) and shooting percentages seem to be the areas that we need to improve in.

We have missed a lot of makeable shots, especially Ben. We need to rebound better and hit our shots but thanks to Kenny’s big 3 we are not in bad shape.

Didn’t play great on the offense side but down only Five. Cut down on turnovers , hit some more open shots and we can win this game

Murray is determined to not let Ben beat them. So I say we run a "delayed draw play" in the second half. Use Ben initially as a decoy and get the other players involved. Then when the defense starts to sag off Ben a little bit then he can take over; but take whatever they give us and MSU is likely to make other players beat them. We have other capable players (Kenny, Yacine, Chuck, Josh, Tanner, etc.) Time to set up and shine.

As mentioned earlier (and KyAce mentioned as well): - Turnovers have been big (8-2): We need to limit ours and create more on the defensive end;
- Points in the paint are 8-16 (not in our favor).
As always, it probably starts with defense and some slight adjustments at halftime.

Haven't been able to watch the entire first half super close but it looks like this has not been the best half for players like Ben, Yacine and Antonio; but other players like Kenny, Josh and Chuck did pretty well. Kenny with the best stat line of eight points, six rebounds and three assists, one steal and two threes.

Ben stepping up with two threes to start the half. With one at 34-33.
