Jaquez is eating Manek's lunch. Manek is the last man down on D every transition. Jacquez is making bunnies on Manek.

Still not sure how you D up the Euro step. It is nothing more than a bailout play for the offensive player that has been sealed off from the hoop and been forced into picking up his dribble.

FUCLA wins this one.

UNC's long range bombs will clang at crunch time.

Pete Maravich said Earl "The Pearl" Monroe was impossible to guard because he would back you down and then do multiple fake spins so you never knew what side he was going to spin around and release the shot from. Jaquez uses that technique.

I'm leaving all my posts up to prove I'm senile and do not know what I'm talking about (but in fairness to me, the only poster in this thread, FUCLA got beat by one player).

* Another Red State team victory.

Jaquez being off sunk UCLA. He got good looks all night long but couldn't hit them like he usually does. Not sure why they didn't run more action for Juzang.

I wonder if his hurt ankle altered his shot release or angle. He was a high volume shooter and as you said, his percentage killed Bruins (21% from the floor. OUCH!) ….and I love his hurky jerky hard to guard style.

UCLA goes down as predicted because I said UCLA didn't have the bigs to win this game:

UCLA only played 1 C and 1 PF all game who combined for 8 points and 8 rebounds.
UNC only played 2 PF all game who combined for 27 points and 23 rebounds.

Plus UNC will be singing "All You Need is LOVE" after his 30 points on 11-24 shooting, including 6-13 threes, and 2-2 FTs, including two dagger 3s in crunch time.

Love outscored the UCLA J&J brothers who combined for only 24 points on 10-31 shooting, including 2-7 from three.

You know what's really weird? Only about 2 1/2 months ago, I read right here on Bear Insider that both FUCLA and Arizona would make the Elite Eight and U$C would make the Sweet Sixteen. I can't believe this . . .
