Good Lord if we can’t hit a 3 we are in big trouble...or get an offensive rebound...

Refs suck

Hey guys.... Ayton is the national player of the year... give him the ball

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:47 pm

We have 1 assist I think?

Get a fucking offensive board...

Bordercat · Post by **Bordercat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:48 pm

Ayton is getting fouled every time. PJC makes honest good defensive play on Holiday and they bail him out. BS.

BBQ wildcat · Post by **BBQ wildcat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:48 pm

No movement on offense, hardly any effort to get the ball inside.

ByJoveByJingle · Post by **ByJoveByJingle** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:48 pm

Our defense is smothering. This is what our D is supposed to look like. This is fundamentally about our inability to keep them off the offense boards. What the hell is going on?

dovecanyoncat · Post by **dovecanyoncat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:51 pm

I can't wait for this half to end.

scumdevils86 · Post by **scumdevils86** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:51 pm

We just look awful. We are a 2nd round flameout this year.

Post by **UAdevil** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:51 pm

Why is is so hard to feed Ayton?!

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:53 pm

Such shitty offensive execution this half

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:53 pm

I've never seen us rebound this poorly before.

I'm wondering if Ayton is having any foot issues... he has no lift

Because people zone us and collapse on him.

And no speed

Postmaster · Post by **Postmaster** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:55 pm

More dunks fewer 3s

Merkin · Post by **Merkin** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:55 pm

And a sub par PG.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:55 pm

It would be nice if Trier found his shot the second half

dovecanyoncat · Post by **dovecanyoncat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:56 pm

Welp, our spacing is terrible so many times that we are on top of each other. Our guards stand at perimeter with the ball and call for a screen from a big who comes up to set it and even before he gets there the guard dribbles away and passes to the other perimeter guard. I just can't understand.

BBQ wildcat · Post by **BBQ wildcat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:56 pm

PG play had nothing to do with this shitty half. Some players chucking 3's and no rebounding was the problem.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:56 pm

We need to rebound.

Trier slashing

Feed the big guys

Our D has been very good

Bordercat · Post by **Bordercat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:56 pm

To be fair UCLA had like 4-5 offensive board that hit back iron and bounce way out right to their guys.

Postmaster · Post by **Postmaster** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:57 pm

Meh
We've missed a lot of decent shots

Bordercat · Post by **Bordercat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:57 pm

I love Trier but come on man.

He also needs to work harder for the ball

rgdeuce · Post by **rgdeuce** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:57 pm

Our inability to get the ball to Ayton is maddening.

billk78 · Post by **billk78** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:57 pm

There's just no excuse to not run this offense through Ayton every drive. Why can't we get him the ball. It was the same last year with Lauri. Get your top players the ball in big games. It's infuriating.

Bordercat · Post by **Bordercat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:58 pm

UCLA has a lot of good players. Hard to believe they finished 4th in the conference. Last year they had Leaf and Ball and finish 3rd. Way to underachieve Alford.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:58 pm

After looking at the first half box score, definitely need to win the rebounding margin the second half. That is the difference maker right now

ByJoveByJingle · Post by **ByJoveByJingle** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 7:59 pm

PJC has been locking down Holiday. This is so frustrating. They are wasting a lifetime defensive performance from our overmatched point guard because they can’t keep the beastly Welsh and Golomon off the offensive boards.

BBQ wildcat · Post by **BBQ wildcat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 8:01 pm

PJC has done a good job on defense. Plus 2 AS, 1 ST, 0 TO. Getting outrebounded 22-13 is just embarrassing. And Trier, Ristic and PJC shooting has been horrible. We are just very lucky that UCLA's 3 point shooting has been as bad as ours. Otherwise, we could have been down by 10-12.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 8:04 pm

Our best scorers are cold as ice and we are only 4 down at the half.

Keep up the great D, hit the boards harder and knock down some shots.

Holiday with 7 points is great D, but PJC has no points, and only 1 assist. No TO though. http://stats.statbroadcast.com/broadcas ... slive=ariz" target="_blank

Stats are showing PJC with 2 assists and 1 steal. But we do need at least some points from him and definitely more from Trier and Ristic. And zero offensive rebounds in the half is bad.

Postmaster · Post by **Postmaster** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 8:08 pm

Is ayton hurt?

BBQ wildcat · Post by **BBQ wildcat** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 8:10 pm

Doesn't look at all hurt. Are you looking for an excuse for a loss?

Nice start to the 2nd half

Just curious about foot.

No excuse for loosing

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 8:14 pm

That's how you start a half.

Me thinks Miller lit a fire at half.

Course, we won't know for sure until after the game.

It might be his shoes. During the CU game Ayton was talking to the equipment manager, not the trainer. Guess they brought the wrong pairs.

Which hardly ever happens! Seems most games the UA comes out slow the start of the 2nd half.

Great to see PJC finally score and Trier hit a legit 3.

Did you see PJC telling the ref that very thing?
