But if this is them "focused and fighting"...massive disaster.

I was a student during the Ben Lindsey era. That team would give this one a heckuva game.

How in the hell does this roster become pretty much the worst UA team since the Ben Lindsey year?

Why are our picks on offense so ineffective? The defenders have no trouble getting through without any switching. Yet when we are on defense we are completely taken apart by the PnR. Just freakin frustrating. Seems like basketball 101.

Point guard is the problem. We don't have some one to take control of the game when we need it.

The offense is not great but not the issue at all right now tonight. PJC and AB have been fine on defense. So it is not a pg issue

PJC takes 8-10 seconds to get the ball down the court so the opponent has time to set up their defense. UA has the horses, run them.

Miller is still thinking his team is a mid-major talent.

It's weird watching us dribble through the shot clock, trying to figure out what we want to do on offense

PROTIP: Pass it early to Ayton on the post

Thanks, but I don't have Roku and won't get it to watch this disaster. I do have Dish's Pac-12 and sports package. That will have to suffice. I'll get by tonight with you guys right here.

I was thinking Trier was thinking he was Kobe.

In any event, he is really hurting the team.
