Ugly. These long dry spells on offense are a concern. Who is our go-to scorer?

Well let's hope that was our shitty 10 minute spurt of the game that we usually seem to have.

2nd half should be better

It seems like Zeke gets too deep and tries to force it up instead of passing out of the triple team

Does he actually think something good is going to happen when he drives with the ball?

Because.... the rest of us all know it's not going to end well
Smith missed three shots - one led to an open putback.

His bad choices are very low on Arizona’s first half list of bad offensive choices...

... but, he’s the designated target, so keep ragging on him!

Nnaji, Mannion & Green forced several bad shots inside against multiple defenders (12 combined misses)

So we have 6 points in the paint, we've scored 1 point for every one of their TOs and we have 2 fast break points. This is a weird game. If we are going to continue to live off the 3 point shot we need paint touches every time instead of bullshit early perimeter pulls. D. Smith are you listening?

Miller and Mick are versions of each other obviously with differences I don't perceive. This is going to come down to dawg ball and attrition. Ain't gonna be pretty. Just win baby.

It's easy to rag on Smith since his shot selection is so bad even the announcers comment on it. Don't think there is a player on the current UA team with lower basketball IQ. Even games which he shoots well, the shot selection is quite questionable.

Was it two games ago he made a NBA length 3 point shot, then next play tried to the same shot and missed, and missed the rest of the whole game?

3-19 on 2-point shots!!!

Bruins have great weak-side help, and we’re not passing out (which we did well in the first few minutes)...

Regardless, his shot selection was a very minor factor in our first half performance TONITE!

No. His presence on the floor gives us one less offensive option. We’re playing 4 on 5 with Smith.

Amazing how Stone looks like a NBA player compared to Zeke, although Zeke will end up in the NBA, and Gettings will be a financial advisor.
