If you consider the fact getting a Double Double being dominated….which he will get because these guys will p@iss him off.

Looks like the Varsity vs Frosh-Soph. More TO's than made shots

Do you watch the games? How many of those rebounds are actually contested? Already seen two rebounds tonight that he had ripped away from him. Plus, Eddie Lampkin's play tonight would like a word with you.

Turnover festival.... not good.

Nice call to go zone on D there, we get a turnover ourselves!! Rod must be shedding a tear.

colorado has 3 projected NBA players on the court, including Williams who is the projected first overall pick

Curtis is helping us defensively

Buff # 2 carried the ball on top of his shoulder and they have replayed that 3 times. No whistle.


*Looking at the sparse crowd in Haas and the lack of interest in this thread painfully drives home the point how Cuonzo Martin/Wyking Jones/Mark Fox destroyed the Cal basketball program and with it the fan base. It will take a long time to clear the rubble.

their center is trashing us, but one of his post shots he looked like he was walking his dog, but no call

At the game… embarrassingly thin crowd.
Fardaws is getting eaten alive by Lampkin, I haven't seen him win a big man contest all season and that is one huge disappointment this season. We have no presence inside so how can you have an offense if you're just jacking up 3s and praying?
bearister

You are all in now. You are going to have to root hard for Daws to fail to make you look like an analyst.

I'm sorry that I actually watch the games and don't just look at empty stats on the box scores.

We're running the Ben Braun offense unfortunately.

Good night to use Gus.

Nah, Mr. Anderson and I don't want anyone to fail, but you also can't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining. Until Cal develops some kind of inside game and rebounding ability (did you see the reb that Daws let slip out of his hands 10 min ago?), we're going to continue to live in Fox-land.

The performance of this team looks like we're still in Fox-land. I had high hopes for Madsen and this level of performance is severely below the off-season hype.

Colorado is definitely the real deal. Lampkin is a force, as are the other NBA prospects playing for Colorado. Cal hasn't played well, I think they are fortunate to only be down 14 at 1/2 time.

Cone is a liability most of the time. Aimaq doesn't try to defend.

Good rebuild year but man…

IMO team needs to let go players from the Fox era (including Devin). New energy and mentality is needed.

fortunate to be down only 14 at the half. could have been 24

We're getting blown out by a much better team 40 to 26 at the half. Cal shot 23% and Colorado shot 58%. Very ugly!

Daws is not a good defender but rebounding is a strength and he can score, but their center is also getting calls/no calls.

I hate it when a big body plays bully ball, walks the dog and isn't called, yet when a much small/lighter player bumps him he is not strong enough to absorb a minor body up and the refs call a foul on the defender

it's ridiculous

with that said, this Colorado team is very good when they have their center and williams on the same team (plus simpson who isn't even 100% yet.

my question is how did Colorado get this good? (their record doesn't reflect it because they were without Williams and Simpson for a while)

How did Daws win DPOY for the WAC?

Did his defense regress?

good question ... maybe because of his rebounding?

Can call go on a 2nd half run and make a game of it again?

If so, we will Tyson

Terrible flagrant 1 call on Daws… but then again bear-hugging is not a defensive tactic.
sonofabear51
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I was thinking the same. Ridiculous. Oh well.

They're just quick on defense. And long. We're just not getting open shots. Basically, they're better than us. Pretty simple.

Well, Holy Wah! The lead is down to 8!

Grant Newell has provided us a big boost in scoring today
HoopDreams
How long do you want to ignore this user?
there's that run I was talking about!

And Grant with a rebound and a 3!

Whatever else happens in this game, it appears the Cal players are considerably tougher than the handful of f@ucking quitters posting tonight.
