Remember this is our first game on the road. This is a great test for the freshman. I notice Sean has shortened the bench tonight

Will anybody else make a mistake in a key moment, or you’ll only be watching him for it? He has mediocre ball skills, but other people make mistakes too. Jeter forces the shot into double teams way too often. Ira gets into foul trouble every game. Zeke blows defensive assignment after defensive assignment (including that wide open 3 in transition at the end of the half). Etc., etc.
Smith has displayed a penchant for poor decision-making his whole career. Statistically, he plays well against poor competition and his weaknesses are exposed against good teams. Not a fan. He defends better than most, but I don’t think he should be on the floor during key possessions.

I wonder if the announcers know that Green and Mannion were AAU teammates?

50% on FT again. This will kill us in a key March game long before a Smith misdribble will.

I think FT's/Smith could Both kill us in March.

Baker should be taking away Smiths minutes. Hopefully, we start seeing that by conference play.

I haven't seen Pepperdine play this year, but they're really patient, sure of themselves, and deadly shooters.

It's disappointing that even with our depth we could so easily lose this game.

No doubt 95% of the people watching ESPN2 right now are rooting for Pepperdine. Heck, I would be if I wasn't an UA fan.

Like the announcers were alluding to, the body language difference is world's apart. Had to call a time out.

Huh. Smith making plays in key moments. Miller letting the team play and run. Gonna win because of offensive execution despite poor defensive execution and unstoppably hot shooting. The tropes are suffering. But we still have “the other coach out coaching Miller again!” Good going on that one.
