Game 8, at Gonzaga (2015-2016)

We can't shoot. Pitts, Trier, York, Allen. Why do people say they are good shooters. In practice? Maybe. Games, never.

Wiltjer 16, Sabonis 10

Rest of team zero

Can anyone on this team finish at the rim?

Anderson at 80% at best

Yep. But be careful. Pointing out unpleasant facts is often regarded with contempt on here.

it's like we've got one of those trick small-radius rims from the carnival on our end. nothing's falling.

I thought no chance is the best answer for wiltjer

boink. . .and Toll with the tip!

Probably good I can't watch this game. Kodi failing me again.

Turnovers once again are killing us. Take care of the ball guys.

And for a team that prides itself on defense, ours is pathetic

Simon needs to work on his freebies!

7-26 from the floor.

This season is going to be ugly without Tarc. Fresno, Missouri and UNLV will all challenge us at home

Trier with no fear taking it to the hole

84Cat · Post by **84Cat** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 1:59 pm

This game is going exactly as I figured. Not many teams can excel with 2 of their best players out against a top team.

Disappointed with the effort more than the results.

Main Event · Post by **Main Event** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:00 pm

Just give it to Trier and let him do him

pokinmik · Post by **pokinmik** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:01 pm

Wiltjer is in a zone you can tell by the way his shots are going in.

I'm getting 05-07 outside shooting flashbacks with this team.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:01 pm

Love Trier. Started out cold but he's starting to get going.

Let's go Trier!

Beachcat97 · Post by **Beachcat97** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:03 pm

This should cheer everyone up:

KA/PJC
Trier
JJ/Smith
Lauri
Ristic

Next season's lineup

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:03 pm

Keep it going Trier! Take over the second half!

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:03 pm

Nice effort by Trier.

The rest of the team . . . eh . . .

84Cat · Post by **84Cat** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:03 pm

No answer for Wiltjer 20 pts already

pokinmik · Post by **pokinmik** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:03 pm

10 points is nothin, we can make a move.

UAGreg · Post by **UAGreg** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:03 pm

Maybe make some adjustments Coach?

I mean can we please double Wiltjer or at least try something different?

only down 10 at the half is a little surprising to me, was looking like it might be a 20+point deficit there for a while.

If only we could stop that wiltjer guy.

carolinacat · Post by **carolinacat** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:05 pm

So Sabonis & Wiltjer are Gonzaga's entire team. How about we pressure the shiit out of the perimeter and force Gonzaga's other players to make some shots? Those 2 guys have proven they can school our guys guarded 1 on 1 in the paint. So let's try something different and double them.

Someone needs to break Wiltjer's knees at halftime for us to have a chance. Where is AG when you need him?

michcat · Post by **michcat** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:06 pm

Pass - walk around - pass - screen -go one on one and take a tough shot or launch a 3. That is AZ's offense.

Ugly basketball.

Sadly, I don't think Gonzaga is that great a team. Says a lot about us.

Terribly disappointed in guys like Pitts, PJC, Allen, & York. Guys are playing tentative. No confidence.

Is it Miller that has these guys so afraid to make a mistake and get yanked???

I can't get too excited seeing Ristic in a starting lineup. He just isn't very good.

Beachcat97 · Post by **Beachcat97** » Sat Dec 05, 2015 2:09 pm

Gabe York may've been a little overrated out of HS. Either that, or he just hasn't developed very much.

Ugly basketball.

Other than Trier, we don't have anyone who can take the ball to the basket and create shots. Allen? Maybe. York, Pitts, PJC, Simon? Forget it.

A role player. Shouldn't be starting on a good team. Not good enough. The fact that he's starting for Arizona says a lot about our roster right now.

Honestly, how often has anyone said of Miller's teams "wow, that's some pretty offense!"?

His forte is his defense.
