We have the worst out of bounds sets. 3 TOs already. Ugh

Grant seems hesitant not want to shoot like v. ASU. We can't have that.

Betley seems to be very much like an Ivy League player these days.

Man these slow starts are killing me. Every game seems to be the same.

What is the difference between the average Arizona season ticket holder and a cutout?

Amazing how many ex-cal recruits are on court for AZ, and that doesn't even include Baker

Why is Miller still allowed to coach in the NCAA? Absurd.

Arizona is definitely corrupt. But no more than many other programs. Kentucky? North Carolina? Kansas? The list is long.

I'm more concerned about how bad our team is. Our offense is putrid. Bad spacing. Too many turnovers. REALLY poor screen setting. Poor shooting. Too much running to the ball. How about setting an off ball screen? Why have Lars catch the ball at the top when he is no threat out there? It is really easy to see why we are scoring less than one point per minute.

Really comes down to a lack of talent. We have very few PAC 12 level players on the team. Decent players. I'm sure great people. But not PAC 12 level players.

Yes, outside of Bradley, we have a whole roster full of marginal Pac 12 players (Kelly's 16 and 13 the other night notwithstanding).

Celestine hurt? He's now in with 5 minutes left in the half. Don't know why he is getting so few minutes

Arizona has been really overplaying at the three point line which actually is a great move by Sean Miller that even UCLA and USC didn't do. We can't get our offense started in our half court sets and no one is cutting to the basket to make them pay.

Only thing working is Bradley one on one shooting 3s

Right. Back door is there but we seem allergic to doing that.

Wouldn't Betley know about doing that in the Ivy League?

Joel can take anyone off the dribble and now starting to finish. He has that going for him, a decent three point shot, very good defense and rebounding for a guard. Work on mid-range shooting and free throws, and he will be a solid all-around player by senior year. A little runner would really help his game as well.

I'm sure the offense in the Ivy League incorporated back doors. Ours doesn't. We run more of a flex set with screens and ball movement rotating from side to side. We just don't have the personnel nor the crispness of execution to do it well.

Geez has anyone seen Grant?

Grant played really well v. UCLA and USC, so the way he has played in the desert is surprising.

" Our offense is putrid. Bad spacing. Too many turnovers. REALLY poor screen setting. Poor shooting. Too much running to the ball."

...but other than that, pretty solid.

All we need to win is:
A perfect game from our guys
An off game from their guys
A 10 point lead in the final minute

COMPETITIVE, BABY

I'm reduced to making snarky comments about our opponent's student-athletes:

Remember when Jordan Brown was going to be the next Big Thing (maybe even for us)? What happened there? Decent game today, but his Dad figured he'd be in the NBA by now, if only he picked the right college program.

I feel like Wyking took us to a bad mid-major program kind of level.

Mark Fox has brought us to a middle of the pack mid-major program kind of level.

Hopefully with some talent coming in our entering class, we get to decent P5 level sometime soon.

Bradley is a great shooter, but I like to see him pass. He really needs to work on his passes.

Hey, Kelly joins Brittany Boyd in leaving the game with 6 fouls!

So Bradley had to try to do it himself again

Scored 21 points and super efficient, but also had a lot of turnovers

But can't blame as no one else could score, although brown had nice scoring stats

AZ clearly has the best defense in the conference and Akinjo thrashed us with his shifty quickness and court vision (8 assts, 0 TOs)
