Trier doesn't know how to pass

SMU takes down USC. There is hope yet for us in the conference.

I think Miller should have subbed Richardson for Smith by now.

Has Trier ever passed out to an open 3 shooter when he has a 1 on 3?

I'm sure miller tells them to make the shot, they just don't listen.

Nope he's terrible.

That offensive charge at 2:40'left in the 2nd was turrible.

Why in the world did Ristic put that ball on the ground? He is not 12

TatetheGreat · Post by **TatetheGreat** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:13 pm

Zone is once again our kryptonite. We gotta hire someone to teach how to break it down.

dovecanyoncat · Post by **dovecanyoncat** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:13 pm

As if defense is our problem.

UALoco · Post by **UALoco** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:14 pm

Is it that we don't have a good play called for that situation or we don't execute it?

TatetheGreat · Post by **TatetheGreat** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:14 pm

Trier playing for stats

Miller is playing Hungry Hungry Hippos. Feed Ayton inside or let Trier do what he wants

84Cat · Post by **84Cat** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:18 pm

Ayton didn't look like he wanted it

At least the team is competing. That will help.

UALoco · Post by **UALoco** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:23 pm

Ugly. Win. Period.

I'll take it.

See you at Talking Stick.

TatetheGreat · Post by **TatetheGreat** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:24 pm

Props to the team for pulling this one out. But they will have to improve tenfold to be competitive Tuesday night.

I can't believe we actually won.

Could be a turning point. We got a lot of nice contributions in the second half.

FreeSpiritCat · Post by **FreeSpiritCat** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:26 pm

They really need to work on drills on how to use the shot clock during the last 10 seconds.

Postmaster · Post by **Postmaster** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:27 pm

Anyone know why Akot didn't play?

Could have cashed it in, came back and won.

He played for about a minute in the 1st half but looked lost

Didn't even see him

Wally Szczerbiak said he still thinks we make the FF. That is cool to hear.

mofo · Post by **mofo** » Sat Dec 02, 2017 10:31 pm

Barcello & Randolph even play in the 2nd half? Last thing I remember from Randolph was a bucket, then rebound or steal & a 3. Then never saw him again. Any ideas? His D is no worse than Smith who played a little

A LONG way to go to see that as a possibility right now. UNLV picked to finish 6th in conference they said. Still nice to see them pull it together in the 2nd 1/2

Just got back from the game. Ristic was terrible and seemed to not care. Atmosphere was very good at the T&M. Fortunate to get the win.

Just got home too. Good showing of U of A fans as always. Great college basketball atmosphere. Ristic was invisible in the first half. Offensively Randolph played good. Defensively not so much. He got yanked in the second half with Miller screaming at him for missing a defensive assignment and never saw the floor again. Akot was in and then out. Seemed lost the minute he played. The Cats could have played a lot better but I'll take this win.

I thought we had a good 2nd half but that was shocking to hear. At half, we were a dumpster fire and then going to a ff. I think Wally likes to talk hyperbole

Didn’t he say at halftime that the only way we could get back in the game was if Rawle played in the second half?
