You can be a fan and look practically at this year's team and realize they're not that good. That's not giving up on them OR Miller.
This team will be lucky to make the tournament. They're gonna lose some games against some weak teams, especially on the road because they don't have enough talent or depth for 40 minutes. If Miller leads this team to a conference title, he should be sainted.

Miller either has the worst luck in the entire world or more likely he is a horrible developer of talent and an awful in-game coach whose whole team together is rarely if ever greater than the sum of its parts.

Seems about right. We are ok, but don't have a to of good opponents left and haven't killed it with the ones we have.

Re: 2018-2019 Arizona Basketball
It seems like popular sentiment has turned against the way Randolph is playing, meanwhile all I wanted during the Rado game was for him to get the ball more (and conversely for Smith to get it less).

Re: 2018-2019 Arizona Basketball
Randolph is one of two players on Arizona who can really make the difference on both ends - he’s a fantastic player with loads of potential and natural skill.
he’s just immature right now and is kind of an air-head - a Ding Dong if you will

Re: 2018-2019 Arizona Basketball
Smith is shooting 24% his last 5 games, which really isn’t a slump for him. He took 9 shots vs Colorado, 2nd on the team. That shouldn’t happen. Jeter needs more touches, like every possession.Chicat wrote:It seems like popular sentiment has turned against the way Randolph is playing, meanwhile all I wanted during the Rado game was for him to get the ball more (and conversely for Smith to get it less).
Re: 2018-2019 Arizona Basketball
On the season, Smith has the same number of turnovers as made field goals.
Last 5 games, 10 TO and 6 FGM

Re: 2018-2019 Arizona Basketball
I agree 100%. The offense needs to start with Jeter. We barely utilized Jeter in the Colorado game. Our guards were passing it around until the shot clock was down to nothing.

Re: 2018-2019 Arizona Basketball
I cannot agree with this statement enough. I fear me yelling at CSM about this. The team energy level when he came in during the first half was palpable. Yes, in the second half, his deficiencies were also on display, but goodness that kid brought energy, speed, and desire. Lack of these is what annoyed me beyond description during the Baylor game.Alieberman wrote:If Coleman is healthy today and DD goes back to getting close to zero playtime I’m going to be pissed

Re: 2018-2019 Arizona Basketball
While I think Jeter should get his share of touches he is no Ayton by any means so I would rather the guards pick and choose when he gets the ball. If he has good position down on the block fine because he has great footwork.
I thought Smith created some decent looks against 'Rado - it's not like he's jacking up 3's all over the place. He just needs to stop the Michael Jordan double-pump shit and finish cleanly at the rim. And he plays good D and rebounds well.
It's going to be by committee the rest of the way depending on the opponent and it's actually not that bad having multiple options at the 1-3 positions especially with DD in the rotation.
Miller has plenty of options when someone is being a super "Ding Dong'.

Great win. Utah shot 57% from the floor. To beat a team with a hot hand like that is huge. We’re gonna stumble plenty this season but need to win games like that at home.

Re: 2018-2019 Arizona Basketball
On the seven-year anniversary of our overtime win at home over a mediocre Colorado, on the controversial wave-off of Sebastiano Chen’s shot at the end of regulation. That’s just where we are again. That season ended in the first round of the NIT. I’m celebrating in blind, sick hope that this time, maybe things will go better. I deserve it. I’m special.97cats wrote:home

It’s really hard to ignore machina when he is such a cunt in what he says that you guys have to all quote him all the time
It’s like he rents space in my brain or he pays property taxes on my brain or he says such stupid shit all the fucking time so I can never get away from him.
And oh nice win today even though it didn’t count since it’s not the elite 8 yet
Have we fired miller yet?
