This team continues to play to the level of the competition

Tubelis with 3 big turnovers

Ramey nowhere to be found

I wonder when we will again see AZ play their best ball in the NCAA tournament. Can anyone remember the last time that genuinely happened? Even in some of our wins in recent years, we've just barely pulled out some of those games, after playing terribly for long stretches.

So many Olson teams, Miller teams.

I know it's March, and these games are high-pressure, strange situations. But ffs, are there no other TJ McConnells? Miles Simons? Tubelis looks like a deer in headlights every time he gets the ball or has to guard the post, and he's supposed to be our best player.

usually, we'd be confident that the wear-down would kick in with the other team and we'd pull away, but our guys look kinda sluggish. do they know it's the ncaa tournament?

When was the last time Arizona actually looked like it was a top 10 team?

Indiana? (First UCLA game was awful all around)

Feel like we say this almost every year in March.

When your guards and wings don’t put up points, it’s tough to win.

8 combined points from non interior players at half is a joke.

KaibabKat · Post by **KaibabKat** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:16 pm

Krissa had another stellar half - he made a basket and handed out an assist.

Merkin · Post by **Merkin** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:19 pm

Look for Hack-a-Henri if he comes back in. When was the last time he made a free throw?

arizonawildcats · Post by **arizonawildcats** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:20 pm

We need someone to start punishing them from the perimeter to open up the interior. Bring Bal in or let Boswell cook.

arizonawildcats · Post by **arizonawildcats** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:22 pm

We definitely need some offense from Pelle. His defense sucked in the first half, too.

And the crazy thing is that sometimes, not often but sometimes, Ramey or Kriisa catches fire from 3. It just doesn't happen at the biggest moments.

Also, remember when Larsson was expected to be our best player this year? Those were the days.

RondaeShimmy · Post by **RondaeShimmy** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:24 pm

This team completely lacks the killer instinct and the knockout punch

Even thinking back to games like Creighton and Indiana, they couldn't completely pull away and both teams made runs to get it close

No need to single out Kerr.

Not one single Arizona player played a good half of basketball

Princeton is out-scoring Arizona 24-16 IN THE PAINT!!! WTF!!!

Brad Nessler is a zombie

dirtbags · Post by **dirtbags** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:26 pm

was expecting ramey to step up and play with a lil more swagger after last game. let's go, big second half! BTFD!

Merkin · Post by **Merkin** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:28 pm

If there was a stat for number of times falling to the ground Ballo would set the UA record.

arizonawildcats · Post by **arizonawildcats** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:29 pm

Finally a quick bucket

arizonawildcats · Post by **arizonawildcats** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:31 pm

Ramey back to back

wyo-cat · Post by **wyo-cat** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:31 pm

Ramey with 4 quick points to start the half.

HiCat · Post by **HiCat** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:31 pm

Ramey needs to do more of that

As big as he is the OTHER guy should be falling to the ground

Finaly, Ramey came out to play this half

wyo-cat · Post by **wyo-cat** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:35 pm

Pelle off the schneid.

84Cat · Post by **84Cat** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:36 pm

Why is Kerr slowing down the ball and letting them set their defense?

wyo-cat · Post by **wyo-cat** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:36 pm

Key D by Pelle.

HiCat · Post by **HiCat** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:36 pm

Good def

Sure feels like it. Princeton down to just 1.

wyo-cat · Post by **wyo-cat** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:44 pm

Fantastic finish by Zu.

Keep it up!!

SabinoDrifter · Post by **SabinoDrifter** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:46 pm

Call a fucking foul

Fishclamps · Post by **Fishclamps** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:47 pm

Why isn't Boswell shooting more

HiCat · Post by **HiCat** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:48 pm

He's only 17

Um

Never said he was gonna shoot 100% but he's a good option they aren't using as much as they could

Sheer says Kerr hss blood on his shorts - hand is bleeding again

Apparently non-Pac refs don’t care, eh?

OK, someone’s gotta deal with EVBUOMWAN

arizonawildcats · Post by **arizonawildcats** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:53 pm

Need Ballo back in

SabinoDrifter · Post by **SabinoDrifter** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:53 pm

They're little things, but that's two very sloppy turnovers back to back.

pc in NM · Post by **pc in NM** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:54 pm

I love Boswell, but he does fuck up

Fishclamps · Post by **Fishclamps** » Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:54 pm

What are these shots

Can’t do that with a good three-point team!
