Bear Down Wildcats

Keep your hands up. Never bring them down! This isn't AAU/street ball

I know Miller doesn't like it but this situation calls for a packed in 2-3 zone........we are on the road and piling up fouls with a 7 man rotation. We need to shorten the clock and keep out of foul trouble.

Mizzou got back in the game because foul trouble removed Arizona's top 7 from what Arizona's top 7 can do to Mizzou.

Slow start? In what way? Is it only a fast start if we hit our first 5 shots or something? I don't think being up 26-10 after 10 minutes is a slow start, personally

No. It's a slow ****ing start when you turn the ball over five times in the first five minutes. Mizzou's complete impotence against Arizona's defense covered that up.

Yeah we definitely turned it over too much. But that prevented a very fast start. Big difference. Slow start is what happened against Gonzaga and Michigan State.

I was thinking that we may need to do this giving the situation.

Rawle!

This is the part where we get like 3 phantoms fouls in a row

Mizzou's strength was 3pt D wasn't it?

Rawle with 17

Fuck man Rawle is such a stud.

Yup it's inevitable

1 to in 2nd half so far

String music!

Wow the freshman really stepping up today

dagger ball

Man we just suck against the zone. I think we should fire CSM

19-0 run. That's gonna leave a mark.

Can we shoot 3's like this every game

1 TO in the second half so far

Okay it was a slow ****ing start prevented by great defense, not concealed by great defense.

Mizzou hasn't scored for 8 minutes

19 fouls against us, 9 against them

That's pretty

LM is done. Only 8 pts today

LMFAO @ the Mizzou fans giving Lauri crap down 22 points

Lauri is a top RBI producer for this team, that's for sure

Next: overrated chant

I think it's safe to say Lauri isn't very good at trying to take charges. The two fouls on him that were good calls today were both on that type of play

These fouls are ridiculous. Do these refs feel sorry for Mizzou?

This whole game, Mizzou's defense by necessity has gravitated around Lauri. His presence is so important, and Arizona's guards get credit for making Mizzou pay. And great defense by Arizona, just a little deflated by foul trouble for a stretch. I'd love to see what this team could do with depth. Overall, Arizona is looking very well-coached.

79-60 'Cats final. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

These refs must have been betting on this game. They were beyond horrid. What was the final line?

Lauri did not have 5 legit fouls. Refs really kept him off the court.

I hate teams that get hot from the three...it annoys me...except when it's the cats! Good road win. First one is always rough

Cats shot the 3 ball well today. Very nice.

Pretty shitty refs.

I wonder if it's a psychology thing, but refs seem to get skilled big men off the court in a hurry if only one team has one. Arguably all five fouls today were legit, but two were borderline, and it's the borderline calls and no-calls that consistently go against skilled big men. And often it starts with a quick whistle for what should be no-call, right in the first minute of the game just to get those fouls tallying. Almost as if the refs need to level the playing field by getting rid of the biggest advantage.

No worries, and in fact I apologize to everyone. I was unfortunately, and unavoidably, away from my computer since last night until just now. In fact I didn't even find out the score on the game until just now (yay we won!).

Thanks for starting the thread UAdevil

I also went ahead and merged the 2 different game threads.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but those 3's were open because the Mizzou defense gravitated around Lauri. We didn't have those looks during the stretches he was on the bench. But f that happens every game, then yes, we're shooting like this every game.
