Message: [QUOTE="Orangezoo, post: 2427024, member: 237"] It may be just an argument of semantics here and word choice. Even the announcer crew called out UB for their old school Gtown tactics of fouling every single possession and playing the odds they won't all get called. UB was undercutting our guys, throwing hands onto their backs and using their own bodies to generate contact, push off and flop. They were extremely aggressive for the sake of being aggressive as often as they actually tried to play the game. I would chalk it up to other teams that play this style and it has helped them so UB is rolling the dice with it. It did increase after the half for sure. They were fortunate to not have us in the double bonus by the 10 minute mark. Now is that playing dirty? That is more a personal matter but it certainly is a tactic meant to gain an advantage by gambling the officials won't call everything. I will say that style doesn't make for good hoops, but it is also still out there. [/QUOTE]
