Soo true
Officiating at SIU has been pathetic, or should I say gutless, for some time now, as SIU teams play aggressive in your face defense and get away with murder at home. The clutching, hacking, bumping, hand checking, holding goes unnoticed while officials call touch fouls on opponents
The calls, or non calls, you referenced were more evidence of the same...
Better officials were up in Champaign officiating the Illini game.
That would be way cool! Bradley and ISU, not just the Rivlary, but with meaningful consequences.

DSE continues to be a cog for the team. I think he was out on the court at the end of the game. Les has confidence in this kid, as he should.
Not much fell for BU from the outside, but DSE had 2 big 3's when SIU was cutting into the lead. How good is he going to be in 2 years...if healthy?

I did not say he rarely shows his ability. You brought up that his play last night was a game changer. I agreed with that assessment, and said that he has shown THAT ability, to be a game changer, a few times this year. I also ended it by saying I hope that this continues. Just because you score points does not make you a game changer. It was the little things, like hustle, ball control, passing and D that SM showed last night that really made the difference.

One more thought on the Taylor Brown technical early in the game...
I watched again in slo-mo......
--and first, I don't think TB fouled anyone - it looked to me like a pretty fair scramble, even up once the ball squirted towards the end line
--second, TB was fouled a second earlier as he went for the rebound, and the photo in the PJS proves it (see below)
--third -- even if the ref did think TB fouled the Saluki player, the whistle didn't happen until after Taylor made the proper, instinctive reaction to throw the ball at the other guy's feet to save from going out of bounds with it.
--that quick act, aimed right at the SIU guy caused the ref to instantly conclude Taylor was acting out of anger and throwing the ball flagrantly..
I really think the ref totally blew it, and didn't have a clue what was happening..concluding a technical instead of simply a no-call...
--regardless, I still feel it was at least a 5-6 pt. turnaround...
should have been our ball and a foul on SIU.

You maybe right, but JL was right there I believe, as it happen in the corner at the end of our bench. Jimmy did not then contest it as if it was the wrong call and he pulled TB for the remainer of the half! Maybe Jimmy said something to Taylor and he felt Taylor did not get the message so he sat him! Like I said you could be right for all I know because watching it on TV was not a good view of what happen:!: Any way he sat and had a good view of the game for rest of the half:roll:One more thought on the Taylor Brown technical early in the game...

Maybe, Maybe not.. after the game an SIU assistant coach said the booing motivated their players.
As an SIU fan I can tell you that the officiating was horrible. Fortunately it wasn't one sided. The refs sucked no matter who had the ball, so don't read too much into missed calls. And as far as Brown's T, he got it for what he said to the ref.
