Glad Lloyd has been reading this board and listening to my calls to put in Veesaar. Although that was a pretty bad pass to his ankles.

And its nice to see some scoring from places we don't usually see it.

Already 2 pullup Js, a floater, and PT for Henri. I'm a happy guy.

Glad we're playing smart and stopped forcing 3s.

3-13, and they are wide open. Too bad Stanford hit all of those.

My fear is the law of averages sets in during the second half. I think they said the last 8 games they have hit 40%.

Hope ZU is going to play tough and no 3's.

Hope ZU is going to play tough and no 3's.
2nd Half Plan:

1) Get out in Carlsons face behind the 3 point line
2) Get Zu to stop shooting 3's
3) Stop going for head fakes and get out on the Ute shooters behind the 3 point arc (before that law of averages kick in)

Zu needs to get his head on straight.

What we have here is failure to communicate.

I wonder how deep Zu is in CTL’s doghouse?

I thought Henri acquitted himself well!

That was one of our best halves.

Just keep doing what we have been at both ends of the court

I just hope this is not a case of Tubelis looking at his draft projection (not 1st round) and reading the scouting reports which say that he can't hit the outside shot.........so he decides to prove he can. Not the type of "team" play we need down the stretch.

I don’t think we need to worry about Zu.

He has been great in every game up until last Saturday

Maybe a letdown after the high of seeing family

Ryan Hansen says our d had been good because we are covering the best shooters leaving the weaker shooters to miss all those wide open 3's. Also, Brandon Carlson is freakin good

We also need to tighten up the defensive glass

Nobody on the team is a selfish player. Zu should drive and kick when the paint is packed. Oumar caught Ramey in the corner for 3 when he got doubled.

So what's up with Walton? That's the 2nd time he mentioned the issues with San Diego. Asking for Mormons to come in and rescue the homeless?
