[TheCat]

[Merkin]

Cats getting some air.

[84Cat]

No, I'm watching pac-12 youtube intl with a vpn

[AZCatGirl]

I know it's just an exhibition, but with football playing murderer's row it feels sooooooo good to watch.

[CardiacCats97]

Feels great to have basketball back.

Ramey looks like he’ll make some important shots for us this year.

[Merkin]

Ramey should have passed that instead of bricking a 3. 2 Cats were open near the basket.

THROW IT DOWN BIG MAN!

[AZCatGirl]

If we would stop jacking threes this would be a huge blowout.

[84Cat]

I had no idea Boswell was cleared to play

[AZCatGirl]

I forgot how fun this team is.

I had no idea Boswell was cleared to play

Pretty quick too. Going to be a fan favorite.

Wolves should rename themselves the Pornstaches

Really bad series there for Bal.........those turnovers were freshman mistakes. Not the sort of thing you expect from a sophomore.

[AZCatGirl]

Nice buzzer beater!

[Fishclamps]

Damn I didn't realize there was a game tonight!

[Fishclamps]

Got the stream up if anyone needs it

I’m not sold on Bal and I’m not sure he’ll ever be a consistent contributor. I certainly hope I’m wrong but not a fan of his game at this point.

[CardiacCats97]

We didn’t look half bad, and will definitely improve. Excited to see what Ramey, Henderson, and Veesaar are going to bring to the court.

[AZCatGirl]

I like how we scheduled a legit good D2 team that gave us everything they had. Whoever is in Western Oregon's conference should be scared of that team.

Only one game, but the fall off in offensive efficiency is going to be steep this year.

What the heck. It was a such a busy day yesterday, and into the evening, that I completely forgot there was a game. I didn't see any thread on the game when I checked earler in the day so I missed it. Ended up watching my wife choice of shows last night instead.

Who's slacking....

Outside of the +/-, Kriisa's box score is brutal.

Outside of the +/-, Kriisa's box score is brutal.

He's streaky, and so far at AZ, his hot streaks have tended to be rare. He would help the team more by averaging 6+ assists per game than by taking so many threes.

Let’s all make definitive conclusions after 1 exhibition game…

Nothing definitive from me, but it’s apparent that this team will go into lulls on the offensive end - missing shots, turnovers, etc.

I’m curious to see if Pelle, Ramey, and Bal will take over that Mathurin role of busting us out of slumps by driving the ball to the basket and getting to the line. It’s so key to stopping opposing runs and giving our guys a breather to collect themselves after a rough spot.

Last season, Pelle could come into the game after 5 minutes or so, once the game's flow had already been established and we'd started feeling out our match-ups. It's different to be a starter and have the added pressure of throwing (or rolling with) the first punch. So yeah, Pelle and these other two will need to be active early, not just stopping the other team's runs but also imposing our style of play right off the tip.
