Taking credit for this one, because I didn’t even mess with the beer. Went with the whiskey all game long. ;)

We controlled the entire game tonight. Very impressive victory tonight and an amazing sweep when many were saying we might lose 2

Very happy to have been way wrong about this game.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

They made some BONEHEAD plays down the stretch. The 5 second call on KB. The turnover inbound pass from Pelle to Caleb. KB blowing the lob to Ballo when they had 3 on 2.

I'm glad to see Tommy getting on them. He's prepping them for March.

I thought Bradley had his best game as a Wildcat. And when we needed it most with KJ in foul trouble all night.

Great win last night. Glad to see we are back to playing like we did early in the season with great defensive intensity and great offensive rhythm.

Seems like we are starting to step on the gas pedal right now. Playing very well and very consistent.

In that Utah game in 55 minutes we had only 8 turnovers I think. That is outstanding. I love how we are trending right now

Losing a 16 point halftime lead is not our best basketball. If you said our best basketball result I would agree with you.

I know this has been mentioned but I don't think it has been emphasised enough. Ballo's free throwing in this game was critical as it kept the Buffs from intentionally fouling him at the end of both the half and game. We need this from him to keep other teams from employing this strategy. Bravo Ballo. Thanks for the hard work.

Getting to that 16 point lead was pretty dang good though.

If Ballo continues to shoot FTs like he has been lately, this offense is pretty much unstoppable.

Has all the physical tools plus it's mostly about potential.

But boy, did he ever lay an egg last night in front of several NBA team scouts/execs.

I asked a similar question in the Colorado thread.

In order to be an effective pro, there has to be at least one thing a player does exceptionally well. I haven't seen Williams' yet.
