Dunn playing selfish offensive game tonight. He's got to give it up.

Got enough Bronx Pale Ale in the house to turn it into a drinking game?
 
What a first half!!!

The duke came in and got us a quick 7 points.
Figgy being figgy.
Ive been very critical of him, but Sears is big time tonight. I dont know what coach mike said to him but hes balling now.
 
Could not ask for a better 20 minutes. CMA has to remind the guys we had the same type lead against Arizona State. Need to value the ball in the second half.

Zona had 9 TOs early but ended with 10. A key is to continue to force turnovers early in second half to really put them in a bigger hole. Easier said than done though.
 
Exactly gotta think Arizona might come out and try to force the play and go on a run if we weather that and maintain the lead we can win this game! We were the better team in the first half keep pressuring them and make them run they looked tired at the end of the half.
 
agree about the Arizona punch looming.
The first five minutes of the second half will be critical to sustain our lead, when Az comes out of their locker room after hearing from the coaching staff.
if we can roughly hold our double digit margin it will give us the confidence and poise to go all the way to victory.
 
Roberts & Rutherford both sat once they picked up their 2nd foul. We go 10 deep and that should really help us in the 2nd half. Zona shot miserably; part of that was us, but got to think they will do a little better in the 2nd half.
 
on the other side of that looming stuff I don't feel like our guys gave their best defensive punch either so at some point we might see them really turn up the pressure. But I am surprised how effectively we've turned them over so

Watching the game wit volume off, Walton is a douche. He's not even talking about the game.

Poor planning Mike. I don't ever let that happen!
 
Under the last 3 coaches, remember how quickly the wheels would come flying off when the offense went cold? When we stopped hitting shots we’d oftentimes stop playing D. A 10 point lead would quickly become a 10 point deficit. Not with this team. The intensive D is constant. That’s why we we went cold, we still managed to fend them off till we started hitting shots again.
 
Let's get them in some foul trouble. Our guys can run the court. Gassed watching them.
 
I hope the coaches are devising an answer to that mannion penetrate pass backwards to nnaji
 
Thoroughly entertaining first half. St. John's play and the banter of the announcers. Walton all stirred up tonight. Miss a little action on the court with which players made the basket, got the rebound, stole the ball but I guess the stats will have it at the end. Zona 11 point favorite for the second 1/2. Keep it up guys!
