Is Ray really the best pro prospect in our '15 class?
I can hear '97 laughing from here.

Why is that?

Airizona

I don't time to look up the stats but he played really well for the Israeli team this summer. Was a double double machine

Airizona

How I see it (without having seen Simon, Smith). PJC York ?? Anderson Tarcewski Trier had some struggles overall, not just on defense. Can't just outmuscle people on drives to the rim, like he did in H.S., so he couldn't finish as well. His challenge will be to keep the ball moving and not let it s...

Airizona

Played well tonight too. 16 pts 5reb and a few assists

Airizona

That guy must know what he is talking about he plays in pickup games in the philly area

Who?

Where can i watch these games?

Sorry....AG had 21 and 10....Stanley is about to play. You can watch the games on NBA tv I believe

Airizona

Ag had 21 pts 10 rebs today and dominated yesterday as well.

Airizona

His jumper is looking more fluid than it did before. I always noticed he had a hitch at the top of his jumper but he seems to be shooting more in a single motion in that vid

Airizona

For those of you posting about the reduced shot clock having no affect because only a small percentage of shots are taken in the 30-35 second range, I think that is the wrong way to look at it. Also, where did you find that info? Just curious because I would like to look at it for different time fra...

Airizona

I'm a bigger Miller fan now that at any time during his tenure. Just amazing that we never get blown out. Wisky had an unprecedented shooting performance, but the Cats still in the game late. When is our last double-digit loss? Look at our exits: UConn, final possession. Ohio State, last-second thr...

Airizona

To say someone isn't the best because of one play is a little ridiculous. There are plays that you could look up of any great player that would make you scratch your head... everyone has bad plays (especially freshman). Stan's body of work so far this season speaks for itself

Sorry man but the best player in America does not get benched for the right reasons at the ends of close games when the conference title is on the line

He does if he plays for Sean Miller and gets lazy on defense for a play.

Airizona

Gotta give huge props to Gabe after that trip. He played really well in both games and made the two biggest plays down the stretch at Utah (the free throw put back and then the blocked 3). Great to see him persevere

Ya that pass he made to Tarc after 3 players collapsed on him was a thing of beauty

Airizona

Tickets would be just as expensive if the game were at UCLA. The only difference is no one would buy them if the game were at UCLA

Airizona

Seems like TJ is great at controlling the flow of the game. In the first half when we needed to get things going he was the guy to do it and had 8 pts and 8 assists at the half (I think). Second half we seemed to be in more of a rhythm and he didn't have to be as aggressive. The guy has been absolut...

Airizona

Would be nice to have something positive to think about when it comes to Miller of late. This is a great example of why you get so much grief Machina. I'm not picking on you; I'm not trying to be mean. Why would you say something like this?? Because it is true. Not impressed with him and don't have...

Airizona

I agree, but since we lost on Saturday our season is already over so it doesn't really matter.

Hopefully we can get better at catching next year.

I wish coach Miller knew what he was doing.

Airizona

It's like a little kid with a toy.

They are fine when the toy is in front of them, but take it away for 2 seconds and they lose their minds.

The nearsightedness of some of the posters on this board is unbelievable.

Rondae was easily a one and done candidate and would have either gone lottery or in the top twenty last year if he wanted to. Sorry, but I can't help but laugh at this notion that all draft picks have to do in order to be a Top 20 pick is "want to." Refresh my memory, but I don't remember Rondae be...

Airizona

I think Ashley and Rondae are gone but Zeus is questionable at this point. Plenty of playing time for Rabb as long as Ashley goes Anderson/Rabb/Smith Zeus/Ristic/Comanche Loaded at the guard position too PJC/Kadeem/Trier/York/Simon The question is, who would redshirt? Comanche? Don't forget Pitts. ...

Airizona

McD's All American roster is announced tonight, who do you guys think makes it? I think Trier and Rabb....Smith probably would have had he not been injured

Airizona

Fuck these refs

Airizona

The first time basketball trash talk will be about SAT scores

Airizona

Not sure how you can consider Stanley Johnson slightly less than a 5* in play so far this season 28.5 mpg, 14.4 ppg, 1.8 apg, 1.6 spg, 2.5 tpg, 48% fg, 70% ft, 40% 3p He could get better at a few things, but stats don't lie. If he saves a kid's life next game will that put him into 5* range? Somethi...

Airizona

It is definitely frustrating to lose a game like that, but the positives are in how close it was despite how bad we played. If you were to show me the stats from the game and asked how much OSU won by, I would have said at least 10, probably more like 15-20. Hopefully someone like Nick will emerge t...

Airizona

On paper we got killed in this game. They shot 51% from the field, 46% from 3, and 77% FT We shot 37.8% from the field, 24% from 3, 67% FT, and got outrebounded 5 TO's is good Lost by 2...I think we win that game 9/10 times but a lot of things went right for them tonight. Can't let a team shoot that...

Airizona

It makes sense that he is transferring. With Bash back this year he wasn't going to get many minutes and then next year could be even worse for him with Anderson and possibly Rabb. Would have liked to see him stick it out and earn some minutes down the line but I don't blame the guy.

Airizona

Thought rondae was gonna be close to a triple double at half time (had all of his assists in 1st half). Stanley is smooth for a dude who is his size. That spin move in the lane in the first half followed by the floater on the fast break was nice. Ashley is pretty automatic on the catch and shoot 3 w...

Was the difference in the game.

Airizona

York played a good game today, particularly off the dribble. I'm still not crazy with the idea of him once again leading all players in shot attempts (he went 6-12, Stanley went 8-10, nobody else took more than 6 shots) but it's hard to argue with the results. Ya I'm not sure I am crazy about that ...

Airizona

Utah up 5 with 6 mins to go. Glad they scheduled tougher games OOC this season.

Airizona

Airizona

what the fuck with these fouls

Airizona

It's good to see Tarc take it strong to the hoop like that.

Airizona

He didn't shoot well tonight, but look at his stat line. 12 pts, NO turnovers, 6 steals (yes, 6 steals), 4 assists, and 9 rebounds. Damn.

Airizona

I am not saying Tarc is a liability on the floor Well, ya kinda did say that... But I also notice that if Tarc is forced to play against smaller opponents and gets pulled out to the perimeter or has to defend someone off the dribble, he is not playing to his strengths. ...and now you've kinda said ...

Airizona

Tarc frequently had to guard a player who was much quicker than him and he has struggled in games like that. So now it's "well the other guy is quicker so what can Tarc do?" Come on man. Ok so let's assume this is an issue. If Tarc is matched up with a smaller, quicker guy, shouldn't we look to pla...

Airizona

I don't ever remember Tarc looking good against small lineups. But it doesn't matter because we don't lose to small lineups. Tarc is indispensable. His defense is superb. And except for last night, he scores in double digits by drawing fouls and being reliable at the stripe. He's a 4-year player, b...

Airizona

Yes, but TJ has said multiple times how helpful sitting that year out was. A nice endorsement to help sell Kadeem on it. Matt Korcheck is the only player that has sat out a season intentionally under Miller. Didn't really do much for him that I can see, so I guess Sean better not use him as evidenc...

Good point, it probably did play a part...that and the logjam at the 2. Glad he is redshirting, should help us in the future

Airizona

I saw on a few recruiting boards that TJ Leaf is planning on committing soon, or is a heavy Arizona lean. Hard for me to put much weight on where a recruit stands if its not from 97. Anyone heard anything?

Sean Miller is a Witch

I have a feeling we will be waiting on those big name recruits every year to decide in the spring as they wait to see which players from our team declare

Airizona

Just got back from the game. Ristic looked solid in the post. Its hard to put much meaning on the performance of a player in the red blue game, but his post moves were decisive and he has a really soft touch.

Airizona

Will have to wait and see if this is his strategy, hard to tell since it is his first year recruiting and that doesn't always bode well for attracting the ideal type of recruit as we saw in Miller's first few years

Airizona

I feel like it is a positive that Rabb is going to wait til the Spring to decide, especially because it sounds like he has been leaning toward other programs. I think that the combination of how impressive Arizona will be this year and that it is still relatively close to home for Rabb will tip the ...
