NCAA Tournament Game 1, vs. Wichita St. (2015-2016)

NYCat · Post by **NYCat** » Thu Mar 17, 2016 8:37 pm

We have no NBA talent, can't beat them with flat out talent and definitely not beating them by out working them.

One of two. . .again. *sigh*

Trier was a deer in headlights today. He IS NOT NBA ready. Would be a big mistake for him to leave.

Lack of Ray Smith is also a factor. . . how much. . .???

Unless Trier really hates school I hope this game makes him realize he's not ready for the NBA yet.

The whole f''ing court was open and you lower your shoulder and run into the guy?

Key off-season in the history of this program. Do enough players have the maturity to look themselves in the mirror and not skulk away from this?

Does he have so much heart to makeup for everyone else, and the tram still doesn't have a leader

Who do we have? Zeus bending over. Great.

Need somebody like Gene Edgerson. . .

Eugene was pissed on twitter, just like Parrom and Solo.

yeah, talk about unfinished business...

if we're planning on still coming back, we need to consider starting the fouling soon

Wow, Comanche in for Anderson. Telling.

Anderson needs to sit his weak ass and mind down on the bench and contemplate what foreign language he will be learning.

I think its more of a key off-season for Miller if he truly wants to get to that next level. Fans will start to get restless, Altman can see he has a good opportunity to take over control. Miller needs JJ and TF..

We could have a whole new starting 5 next year anyway. Im less excited about Ristic getting any major minutes. Comanche has a lot of promise. Maybe this will wake the younger guys up and show them how it feels to get embarassed in the biggest game of their career.

Miller needs more than recruits. Miller needs a team that plays as intense as he is.

DaddyO'Cat · Post by **DaddyO'Cat** » Thu Mar 17, 2016 8:43 pm

I think PJC has been doing a fine job running the point. Just the O is a little lacking and not enough skilled players and Trier is learning a lesson.

Also, and this is the last time I'm gonna say this, watch the insults and the words you use. I use a super-light moderator touch, but when I've had to delete something and then almost delete another thing before it was edited.....you know you're crossing the line.

I will lock the thread if necessary, then you all can go and curse these players somewheres else.

Thanks for this! Pretty disgusting display of fandom in here.

Retool, get guys like TJ and RHJ that give every ounce of effirt. WSU is not more talented, just more competitive. They are fueled by there 2 guards who like Dillon Brooks at Oregon refuse to lose.

No one on our roster coming back is like that. I don't know about the incoming guys but someone needs to assume that role

catgrad97 · Post by **catgrad97** » Thu Mar 17, 2016 8:45 pm

"Arizona hasn't given up."

Arizona is trying to save face and get fans to forget of what a truly wretched first-round game this was.

Yeah with Ristic regressing the center position has me a little concerned. Comanche didn't play enough this year.

Sill don't have a leader or attitude next year, maybe Rawle

PieceOfMeat · Post by **PieceOfMeat** » Thu Mar 17, 2016 8:47 pm

i still think we should be fouling, trying to extend the game.
i know wsu has come up empty the last two trips, and maybe it doesnt matter if we're not sinking shots, but still.

Might as well, but should've done that a lot quicker the last couple comebacks too.

oh no no no...don't be too harsh...

Anderson has orange slices to look forward too...

I agree with POM. We should be fouling.

For as shitty as we played, all we had to do was hit FTs, especially the front ends, and we'd be down a couple at most.

PieceOfMeat · Post by **PieceOfMeat** » Thu Mar 17, 2016 8:52 pm

useless to waste 12 seconds before fouling.

either foul quick, or don't foul and just concede

Big offseason for Miller.

I hope he doesn't become the Dan Marino of college bb coaches.

catgrad97 wrote:This "comeback" is even worse than the first 30 minutes in a way.

Even the announcers are noticing that starters are looking up at the scoreboard, saying "Oh, shit," and throwing what they can at this margin to make it respectable.

This final shouldn't look respectable. It should reflect the Arizona effort given, not have better optics.

the worst part is, from what i can tell from CSM's body language, he's been like "f it, you guys don't wanna listen to me, go ahead and play this thing your own way" since 17:00... and then they put an effort forth and narrow the gap
