I would take Kerr over almost all those people above him. Stats don't tell the whole story and only casuals rely on stats
Starting to think you're not an AZ fan.
I will take that as a compliment coming from you
Let's try something, PHX.

Please choose the best answer to complete the following sentence:

When Arizona wins, I feel ________.

(a) deeply upset
(b) entirely indifferent
(c) positively awesome
(d) an obligation to point out how the victory was unimpressive and concerning
(e) all of the above

If you chose (c), you're indeed an AZ fan. We would've also accepted (e), though, as recent studies have found that this more closely approximates the typical Arizona basketball fan's psychology.

Thanks for gate keeping BC97, I am sure you the best to determine who is and isnt an Arizona fan, even though you dont contribute to the collectives

Let's recap:

If stats are meaningful to you you're not serious about a sport.
If you don't contribute to collectives you're a bad fan.
If you are unwilling to bet on your team you're missing the point.

Any others?

I have no insider knowledge, but would expect Zu to declare for the draft, attend the camps, get professional feedback, then return to Arizona.

He still can't defend, make an outside shot or use his right hand. All 3 things he would need in the league, or more likely a better Euro player.

I would also think Zu could notice what Timme is doing this year and feel motivated to come back and do something similar.
