When?

It was a perennial problem under Miller too more seasons than not.

When Snowden was coach?

Haven't seen Kerr in a LONG time

Merkin · Post by **Merkin** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:52 pm

That was a Lute worthy end of half.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:52 pm

Lute end of half yet again.

DrWildcat · Post by **DrWildcat** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:53 pm

Against good defensive teams the offense is just not good.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:53 pm

of course that 3 went in.

Great end of half coaching by Sean Miller.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:53 pm

Shitty end of the half

We are playing a step slow

Beachcat97 · Post by **Beachcat97** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:53 pm

CK can't miss those good looks. It's amazing how many points we lose between point-blank misses and FTs.

84Cat · Post by **84Cat** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:53 pm

I knew usc would be a tough match up for us

I remember Salim being nearly damn perfect from the line.

Good times...

Well that sucked. We should have a small lead but couldn’t hit a FT and made more than a few dumb decisions.

Fishclamps · Post by **Fishclamps** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:56 pm

That 3 is now a 2. Arizona 29 - 28 USC

Win by 1.

As much as I disliked Trier's hero ball, he was ALWAYS clutch on free throws. For some reason, he always had that part of his game dialed in. I would pick him for end of game situations just for that.

We're playing like we ate at Red Lobster before the game.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:59 pm

I do still fully expect us to bring the intensity in the 2nd half and win rather easily

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:00 pm

How the fuck do they have 15 more shot attempts?

Merkin · Post by **Merkin** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:01 pm

Akinjo is and was an 80% FT shooter.

Cause we gave up a bunch of offensive rebounds

We've yet to miss. Haven't you been watching?

Fishclamps · Post by **Fishclamps** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:03 pm

The rim has been unkind for rebounds

Lot of long rebounds when you shoot 2-15 3 PT.

USC has 3 more ORs then DRs.

cats101 · Post by **cats101** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:06 pm

This team giving up offensive rebounds has been a trend all season.

Yup, they're shooting bricks all over the place and those balls are missiles coming off the rim

Any one, PM me if you can figure out a way to blame Ari for the 1h.

And 12-1 FT disparity favoring us

ghostwhitehorse · Post by **ghostwhitehorse** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:14 pm

Well that narrowed the Oboard differential.

UCLA game had a huge FT disparity favoring Arizona as well.

Bill Walton>>Casey Jacobsen on the court and behind the mic.

RondaeShimmy · Post by **RondaeShimmy** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:16 pm

Jacobsen is right that Tubelis has barely any lift out there

Groan

Merkin · Post by **Merkin** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:24 pm

Tubelis has nothing left, he needs to come out.

And no one getting back on defense, AGAIN!.

RondaeShimmy · Post by **RondaeShimmy** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:24 pm

Funny how a bad quick shot 3 almost always leads to multiple pts the other way

Except when you are USC and it bounces right back into their hands. Up to 12 ORs.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:25 pm

Just win by 1.

dovecanyoncat · Post by **dovecanyoncat** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:25 pm

Honest question: is there any one of us ANY ONE who didn't know that heat check was coming?

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:26 pm

SC plays good D but they do hack a lot.

Beachcat97 · Post by **Beachcat97** » Sat Feb 05, 2022 4:26 pm

Can't pull away from these guys.

Also, that was a great example of Kriisa's immaturity. Hits a big three but then quickly forces another one that we didn't need. He goes through these spurts where he seemingly can't keep himself from launching it, and he doesn't make a high enough percentage for this to be effective. It just ends up being a fast break going the other way.

Kerr has only attempted 9 total shots inside the paint

WTF

One thing I didn't know that Kerr Kriisa was named after Steve Kerr! Isn't that just a shock.

WTF

Didn't he only have 1 2 point attempt last season when he was a 2G?

But you're not bearing down enough to make that claim!
