Dusan is our answer to our PG problems

Ristic gets a lot of shit from people but he is having a very good year

OK!! Let's hear it for Dusan Ristic!!!!!

Every time they say Siewert's name, it sounds like "C word"

Good thing his first name isn't Harry.

We have it all wrong. Ristic should be our PG.

What a brick and it goes in damnit

We need to slip a couple these screens for Trier. We'd get whatever we'd want a couple of times before they switch it up.

He's way more productive and useful than Zeus ever was. Very reliable scorer.

Why didn't Smith give Ristic the ball? He was wide open and calling for it?

Lute would have benched Smith for that Shakur play.

In spite of all my criticism of Miller's utilization of Ayton, I want to be on record with his excellent development/utilization of Dusan Ristic!!!

First-rate coaching accomplishment!!

zonagrad · Post by **zonagrad** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 7:54 pm

I have to believe that Arizona leads the nation every season in opponents making the ugliest three pointers against them. Every single game at least one opposing player banks a three against us.

Good call.

Duece with the dime

TatetheGreat · Post by **TatetheGreat** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 7:56 pm

Miller has gotten the most out of Ristic but having a slow big with post moves is a luxury on a good team, not a 24 MPG starter.

TatetheGreat · Post by **TatetheGreat** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 7:59 pm

Six bench points, all from Lee.

RondaeShimmy · Post by **RondaeShimmy** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 7:59 pm

Trier attacking the paint is the best version of Trier

Can't even think of a worse bench at Arizona.

Used to be Arizona's 2nd five would start at 100 or so Div I schools.

zonagrad · Post by **zonagrad** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:01 pm

We are giving up way too many points near the basket. We don't move our feet enough on D. Need to force CU to shoot jumpers.

Bordercat · Post by **Bordercat** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:02 pm

Well the good news is that technically Smith is a bench player.

What the hell happened to Randolph?

or play a fracking zone with our two 7 footers on the block

yeah the bench production (or lack thereof) is very disappointing.

Well, this is uninspired.

Yep, it's worrisome. To be fair, Smith is starting in place of Alkins and he has 10.

Gone cold

zonagrad · Post by **zonagrad** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:05 pm

Just attack the effing basket. EVERY TIME. We settle for such mediocre shots it's pathetic.

Bordercat · Post by **Bordercat** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:05 pm

Screw the Buffs!

yes....

I really don't like the tone of this game right now.

RondaeShimmy · Post by **RondaeShimmy** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:06 pm

Pretty apparent this team can't blow out teams that aren't terrible like Cal.

oh for crying out loud smith

That was a good shot by smith

Wright has been abusing PJC this half

DS3!!!

TatetheGreat · Post by **TatetheGreat** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:07 pm

This has happened enough to be a pattern. Come out flat, come back in the second half, give up the lead, respond to close out opponent in the last five minutes.

Yeah, 5 minute of good basketball on both sides is all the consistency we're going to get

That's 80% of SEEM's playbook.

stop it smith

RondaeShimmy · Post by **RondaeShimmy** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:11 pm

I think our defense will climb to the 80s on Kenpom

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:11 pm

Ayton hasn't attacked the offensive glass at all tonight

Longhorned · Post by **Longhorned** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:11 pm

this game is pure hell. not enjoying this.

Then you are not going to enjoy the rest of the year very much. I expect to see a lot of zone coupled with double teams on Trier............this forces AZ to beat you with the other 3 guys.

zonagrad · Post by **zonagrad** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:13 pm

PJC is getting abused. Can't stay in front of his man and is killing us because the defensive help is leaving people wide open.

Bordercat · Post by **Bordercat** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:13 pm

I'm getting this eerie feeling we are going to lose this game.

Postmaster · Post by **Postmaster** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:13 pm

I think miller would have been better served to spend time as assistant outside of the Matta tree.
No variation in his game plan

RondaeShimmy · Post by **RondaeShimmy** » Thu Jan 25, 2018 8:14 pm

Killing us with the dribble penetration
