It's not a great sign when we have great stats at the half, yet are only up 3 points.

It's going to take another really solid effort these last 20 minutes to pull out the W.

It's so refreshing to be able to compete in a game like this. AND have some flashy, exciting players

I really REALLY hate to bring up officiating but they need to give us more of a fair shake. Bears need to reduce Butler's offensive rebounds.

Nice moment when the announcers say they don't have an update on Tyson while the camera shows him in the huddle and then walking on the court.
Agreed. Right before he started to talk about it Tyson was already shown on the bench.
Who is the color guy. I think they said furd.
Yes, Casey Jacobsen.

You should've seen the sour lemon face he made when I asked him at Pac-12 media day what Stanford fans thought of retaining Haase while Cal got Madsen.

Hinkle Fieldhouse is amazing. Such a great setting and atmosphere. Here's some pregame at Hinkle.

Casey Jacobsen. Amazing shooter, no snarky comments about Cal since Madsen is coaching.

Actually was complimenting us.

Celestine needs to get his legs and step up now. We keep getting contributions from everyone, that will go a long way in this game.

I guess that is how you get an amazing record in OOC home games.

Butler's only three comes with three seconds left it the half. Damn.

It's really bad. Cal's getting hacked regularly with no calls and they're getting called for everything, including some where there was clearly no foul committed. The worst was when Tyson was injured on hard contact that sent him to the locker room and they called the foul on him instead. Another was on a missed shot under the hoop where the Cal defender went straight up with no contact. I'm sitting behind the Cal bench and Cal families (lots of them made the trip) and they've been frustrated all game long with the calls.

Announcers scrutinizing every call against Cal, shrugging for every call against Butler.

Keonte Kennedy is such a great energy boost. He fits in well with this squad, and I can see him becoming an important cog in the machine.

Cone 2-8 isn't gonna do it.

Hopefully Okafor is ok, didn't look good

Oh man… Okafor is not well.

Refs are supposed to prepare themselves to not be affected by the fans. These refs haven't done enough homework.

What happened to our defense? Nonexistent in the 2nd half.

Painful run by Butler here. Need to find some offense.

We need to make a push now

Aimaq 3-12 on twos is also a problem. Got to finish stronger.

Cone totally cold.

Well to be fair, he's been hacked on at least 4 of those shots with no call.

Need to take advantage of this opportunity to make it a two score game

You think Madsen could teach Aimaq to box out.

I can't believe Thad Motta is complaining to the officals.

I think he's telling the officials when to call fouls.

Terrible turnover by Tyson

C'mon Bears, need a huge stop on D here! I would have Cone on the bench for this defensive possession.

Butler has more fouls in the second half. The first was bad.

How is Casey Jacobson saying that Thomas has been getting the better of the matchup between Fardaws and Thomas. He needs to look at the stat line. Fardaws should have at least 12 FT attempts if the refs called it straight up.

We all know why Casey is saying this.
