Re: 2023-2024 Arizona Basketball

Arizona became very predictable by the second half of Pac 12 play because of Kerr imo. Because he's incapable of driving to the basket, his playmaking was hindered and the sets were thus easy to figure out because of this. In the full court, there's no match for Kerr. But in the half court, you knew...

Re: 2023-2024 Arizona Basketball

Now that Kerr is gone, Lloyd needs to go after an attacking guard that can score off the dribble We can't be weak there anymore, this is how games in March are always won Larsson can't really do that either, so it's best he stays at the 3. Hopefully he's actually good starting this time, if he's bet...

Re: 2023-2024 Arizona Basketball

Just need some athletes. Even Lloyd said last season the Cats weren't athletic enough, and that was with Mathurin, Koloko and Terry. Also some blue collar Mark Madsen types who don't play soft. So that means you want most the core gone since they would have to play to show their athleticism right?

Re: Tommy Lloyd

Needs to follow the metrics that Oats does. If you are a guard you either attack the rim off the drive of you shoot the open three ball. Lloyd seemed to hint at that at times. He wanted the guards to feed the post or get more aggressive or hunt a three. Problem was Ramey, Henderson and Krissa could...
