[2018-19] Maui Jim Maui Invitational

[Devilsforlife]

Failed to cover against a top 10 team. I am disgusted.

I hate college officiating’s lack of continuation calls. Zion and Cam both missed And-1s because of terrible “on-the-floor” calls, and I’m pretty sure Duke got 0 points on both of those possessions. Hell, Zion’s should have been a flagrant And-1.

 

[bdotling]

Not a surprise but our free throws were gross.

 

[torontoduke]

Must have it in Cam's mitts with a lead when trying to close out.

 

[ZackM]

RJ and Zion both looks a bit disinterested today. Probably hung over.

 

[TS9]

On one hand, Auburn seems like one of those teams that might hit the skids midway through the season. On the other hand, it seems like a potential NCAAT rematch that I'd rather avoid.

68% is actually great for this team so far

 

[bdotling]

Yeah but we took 34 so there were more misses and those misses became more pronounced esp in a tightish game

 

[bdotling]

Basically it felt like a greater % possessions ended in FTs than in previous games which is no bueno for us

Fine, but we were 8-10 in the last 8 minutes of the game.

I also agree with this, but it was Barrett and Goldwire, not FT that made us sweat a pretty easy win overall.

I've noticed that Zion plays through a bunch of contact that never gets called because he is so big.

Arizona beating up on Gonzaga for the possibility of a Jeter reunion

 

[DurhamSon]

It's a copout but the score is closer than it was. They made like 3 or 4 of the last five desperation heaves they took. Pisses me off but i'll probably be happy with this win by tomorrow.

 

[Slap the Floor]

Chase Jeter just got a T.

 

[dukebluedevils05]

Wow, what a terrible play by Jeter. Fouls out with 12 minutes left after complaining on an obvious foul, which was his fourth, gets a technical for acting like a brat which ends up being his fifth.

 

[Thain]

Zona and the Zags both look like shit.

 

[dukebluedevils05]

Gonzaga has played really good defense this second half. They're big and physical at just about every position.

 

[dukebluedevils05]

And just like that Gonzaga runs away with it.

 

[deepdarkblue]

I thought the freshmen looked tired last night. This is the first time they've come close to being pushed in the second half of a game, and RJ and Reddish's shooting seemed much worse late in the game. I also believe that when Reddish and Zion went out with foul trouble, RJ decided that he was the hero the team needed.
White was so solid, he cleaned up a lot of the freshmen's messes.
Coach K must hate AOC.
Bless Bolden's heart, he had the game of his life, but I don't think he's going to have a lot of games where the other team's strategy is to continually have their 5'9" PG attempt to drive the ball to the basket.
