Just rewatched Zags at the Y. Right after Barcello scored to make it 82-74 (4:38
Mark or close to it) Seljaas got blindside screened, and Tillie 2-arm shoved him to the ground right in front of the ref who waved off the contact looking right at it. Might have qualified as a flagrant 1. Worse than TJ’s earlier in the game that was debated. Then, as the play continues, Barcello gets knocked to the floor by Tillie curling around as Alex goes straight up for the rebound and Tillie jumped into him aggressively. Whistle blows, foul on Barcello. Two obvious biased looking calls/no calls within 3 seconds. That is why fans threw stuff on the court. Looked like the ref had been bought off and was trying to keep the Zags in it, who had stayed in the game with about 8 of 10 of their recent points at that time were free throws. We even beat the refs in that second half. (And first half fouls were like 12-5 if I remember correctly, towards the end of the half)

The big three were solid in the game, but I especially loved how Seljaas owned the game for his last 10 minutes on his home court. Several rebounds-aggressive ones- a couple steals, at least one huge block towards the end, and about 8 straight in a second half where he scored over 10. Plus, he fouled out Tillie (karma, I say) and drew several other players into fouls, all while just being a nuisance denying key players from getting the ball!

Also got to give serious props to Colby LEE for that game. May have had as many rebounds as Yoeli, but who would have expected Several strong rebounds and about 7, maybe 9 straight points, including a 3, at one stretch in the second quarter. Who would have foretold that? He really neutralized Petruchev pretty well in that game, earning extended minutes, and really taking the big guy out of his game. Great job, Colby!

There! A little game talk on a really glum ending to a glum week. That game will always bring a smile to my face and a pickup to my pace🙂
