Hoeless AJ Dybantsa

BYU has nothing after the big 3

Problem is wright going 1/9. Missing a lot of bunnies.

Got paid by BYU but at what cost

Yup - they defend. They are big on the perimeter. Legit. Diff between them and a team like UM is they have two big guards than can create. UM has one small PG and then a spot up guy.

They then bring more beef off the bench with this kid Awaka.

But how would they do against Michigan??

Wait, we’re not doing that anymore???

This gym is weak though. Crowd is okay but the camera work and court make it feel like an old school UConn-Tulsa rumble. What on odd time when Tulsa was a conference opponent.

Not only that, but they owned us at that place

Zona up 9 on the road here with Peat doing zilch. Burries and Bradley are a stud backcourt, can both create. Maybe we are watching a different game, but AZ is good, tough and balanced. And yes they’re big. They defend.

BYU has nothing after the big 3.

Burries looks pretty good, eh? Remember early in the season you wanted to write him off as a disappointing highly ranked freshman? 🤣

What do you think the cost was?

Watch out, he’s gonna play revisionist history again

Just like he never really liked Michigan. It’s ALWAYS been Arizona

Oh I can search on here and find our back and forth. I told him it was too early to count Burries as disappointing. But you know how he is with the knee jerk reaction takes.

Uhhhh, I did the exact opposite. I said they could only get better with the season as an underperforming Burries was highly rated and was only going to get better, along with the other freshmen on the team. Get your facts straight.

 

[Leebo]

See first post

Gonna take a wild guess that he's not having any issues in that department. BYU or not.

 

[aceboon]

Unless AJD goes off I don't think BYU has enough to compete with the top teams in the B12, they've played a relatively soft league schedule to date outside of Texas Tech and they got handled in that one

 

[HooperScooper]

No, no, no. You were saying Burries has been disappointing and I'm pretty sure you were asking whether Mullins would be more Burries or Peat (who at that point was killing it). And then I said it was way too early to write Burries off as disappointing. And you never loved Michigan, did you? 😀

BYU also isn’t serious.

It’s a Dybantsa shot every time down the floor

 

[RuffRuff]

No, no. I said Burries was higher rated than Mullins and had a lot of upside, and AZ had a lot of room to get even better. The whole conversation was around AZ having a high ceiling because 3 of their best players were freshmen.

 

[Leebo]

/Sarcasm

Uh huh

 

[JustbrewitMan]

BYU shot selection is not good. And they can’t hit much.

AJD shoots an elbow J. Watches it miss and stands there as the play continues around him. Oof.

 

[RuffRuff]

It's their only matchup advantage on the floor. AZ is big and defends. Wright and Saunders are smothered. AZ is a matchup nightmare for BYU. I generally can't see BYU making any noise either as they're three players, two of which can be defended.

 

[sdglast]

Quality of this game in 2 minutes is night and day next to that last one. Burries has come a long way since we played them.

Ville stinks. They are a one and done type NCAA team. They have zero inside presence.

Agree...Louisville is not good

 

[JustbrewitMan]

AJD is gonna huck up 35-40 shots before this one is over

 

[uconngb]

No, no. I said Burries was higher rated than Mullins and had a lot of upside, and AZ had a lot of room to get even better. The whole conversation was around AZ having a high ceiling because 3 of their best players were freshmen.

You never said anything other than Michigan Michigan Michigan until they lost. You know we can all just go back and look right???

 

[auror]

Jaden Bradley might be my favorite player to watch this season. I'm not sure I've seen him make a single bad play the entire season.
