I'd say it's a legitimate concern, dude. They were sloppy and stupid as fukk in those last few possessions

Sorry man, that's just bullshyt. Somebody wins, somebody loses. Coaches get way too much blame and way too much credit sometimes. They lost by a point, this was a coinflip at the end. Could've gone either way. You can have the best plan in the world but sometimes you just come up short.

I thought Arizona would go out way sooner than this game, but this is shyt that has happened to them. I've seen all of their losses this season and they were all like this, just barely losing because probability wasn't in their favor.

If Gordon touches the rock, Wisconsin is fouling him immediately.

And there is no way he's a top 5 pick. He has ZERO offensive game.

Dude has potential threw the roof. One thing he has that Wiggins doesn't have is that edge. That nikka was ready for whatever. I'd take him top 5 without a doubt.

Gordon scored AZ's first 5 points of the OT and didnt see the ball the rest of the overtime

 

[MikelArteta]

Honestly I don't know much about Sean Miller, but I am wanting to call him a horrible in game coach. Didn't solve the Kaminsky issue and couldn't find anything to work on offense for his team.

sean miller has never gone to a final four

You seriously don't think it's a concern that on oerhaps their final 3 attempts to get points they didn't go to their big man who was bullying around down low? That Nick Johnson made dumb mistake after dumb mistake? Come on, man. Yeah, it's a coin flip sometimes. But coaches need to out them in a position to succeed. People say that cal just sends people out and let's them play. These nikkas in the last 2 minutes looked like dudes scrambling with no real united idea of what the fukk they were doing.

Really? I don't know...I get tweener vibes

Hmm 3 or 4 but I bet he won't go ghost when he see's a zone.

Man, it isn't that easy. You go to the best guy that can create something. You're acting like their bigs can score consistently against a team like Wisconsin in this type of grinding game. All of those scores he was getting towards the end were off broken plays, wide open shot at the top of the key, putback. How is he going to catch, create and THEN score in 2.3 seconds?

Arizona missed TOUGH shots, but they were barely misses.

This team isn't built for games like this. ALL of the games they lost were very, very close because don't have the personnel to execute in a situation like that.

They were at their best when this season when they're turning people over, stopping people from scoring, and just taking advantage in transition. They blew people out. When the games were close they'd lose.

Give Wisconsin credit. Last possession had no lane to drive and he had to take a tough shot with two fukking seconds on the clock, and again, none of these guys are incredible individual scorers or anything.

Throw it to the big and he'd get trapped and the refs would swallow their whistles as they watched that yellow boy fling an airball up.

These kids aren't robots, pressure bursts pipes. Defensive pressure, and the pressure of the situation.

I'm not talking about at the 2.3 mark. Right before that, before the charge, they had plenty of time to feed it into him. They didn't take advantage of the clock and Nick Johnson seemed adamant on running the clock down without trying to get ANYBODY open then going head first into the midst of the defense.

I'm not saying it would be easy, but nobody even seemed on the same page at the end dude. There was no plan and they had some 25 seconds to look at coach and figure something out. It was stupid basketball plain and simple

That's on the yellow boy, but who knows, sometimes coaches like to let their players create. Sometimes that gameplan looks brilliant, sometimes it looks stupid. I think they just took a gamble and it didn't work out. He took a tough shot but it wasn't the worst take in the world, zero timeouts, high pressure situation with all of the momentum going Wisconsin's way, and he gets a ticky tack call against him.

There wasn't anything that egregious in my opinion.
