For me, I say it was Stokes technical, the way he got it and the way he was "a tougher breed" afterward. The whole team bought in.

I agree. When he got T' up, he went hardcore on the next play and the energy was amazing after that.

Remember when Maymon got the tech against UF and the wheels fell off? U.T. learned from that, and didn't let a bad call beat them. Stokes just shrugged it off and kept playing. Martin didn't pitch a fit on the sidelines to further frustrate his team. They took it calmly and went about their business. It showed some real maturity.

Still going with McRae's three followed by his and-one when it was 16-4. A missed bucket there and the game's over.

I'd say Josh Richardson's pass over the zone to Antonio Barton for the open 3. After that we didn't seem to miss..

Before half you could see us breaking down the zone, we tried to shoot out of it the first 10-15 minutes and couldn't hit. Drive and dish got it done and they couldn't handle our wings.

I would say it was Richardson's MONSTER baseline slam...I watched the replay this morning, and the way the whole team reacted set the tone for the rest of the game. Let's just be honest, the turning point in the game was when Josh actually started making his shots after starting 0/7.

Getting to half time and down only 3 after playing badly up to that point. It may have been my anxiety kicking in, but it felt like we were getting waxed. Then I realized that we could still win this thing.

My turning point was real early, when down 16-4

They could've quit, but McRae took control with a 3, then an 'And 1' 3 point play in back to back possessions.

If he doesn't step up there, it's a blow out

I don't think there was a single play. Richardson played with more fire in the 2nd half. If we don't get that out of him, we lose. Maymon also played his old ass off.

I thought it was Stokes composure after the tech...he just worked harder and so did the rest of the team. Richardson worked as hard as anyone.....we needed all of his defense and every point he produced. The Maymon 3 point play was a crucial one as well as the 3 point bombs from Barton...Great game to watch.....

Guess I wouldn't call it a turning point because they did it all game. But UT's ability to draw fouls and make foul shots was huge for them last night. I haven't saw their stats yet, but I only remember 1 Maymon miss, 1 McRae miss and about 3 Stokes misses. But we shot a looooot.

I was at the game and i.m.o. it was the Stokes Technical...they played with a different level of intensity after that...dont get me wrong, there were others, but that one strikes me the most!!!

I believe the turning point was Richardson's up and under layup against 2 defenders. After he made the layup you could tell in his eyes that he knew he had to step up.

Mcrae's buzzer beater at the end of first half. Going into half trailing by just 3 did help.

Josh monster dunk was hell of a play!
