UCLA vs Gonzaga

[JMick]

Actually UCLA. Not enough firepower or inside presence.

they look exhausted right now. if they somehow pull it together and win it, I like our chances against them solely because of our depth

 

[WestHartHusk]

Cronin seems like a miserable person to play for.

This is payback for UCLA's comeback over Adam Morrison in 2006.

UCLA looks like a better version of Arkansas. Too many bad twos.

 

[That Guy]

Scouting report for Gonzaga is very simple: Stop Timme and we win.

They had a similar shot chart.

You're not stopping Timme. You also don't need to to beat them. The rest of their team doesn't look all that good to me.

 

[gsmooth]

They have to double Timme even though they might give up a 3. Cronin has to adjust to how game is going. Timme looking like Olajuwon out there

 

[Jaker]

Adam Morrison cut his hair finally

How?

 

[Dove]

Morrison looks like he needs coffee.

 

[Tenspro2002]

Now that I think of it -- how bizarre was it that they put St. Mary's and Gonzaga in the same region? Not inconceivable that they'd have faced each other in the Elite 8.

 

[KingAG]

We might score 100 on the zags

 

[That Guy]

How?

A healthy dose of Sanogo and Clingan bullying him all game. Make the other guys beat us.

 

[Jaker]

Timme will have to play some D against Sanogo

 

[Tommyboy]

UCLA can’t make a shot.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

UCLA's cooked.

 

[gsmooth]

Damn it UConn and Gonzaga

 

[August_West]

Gonzaga more of a glass cannon all offense (best offense in the country, decent defense). UCLA slow and grindy, a little more balanced but shaded toward elite defense (#2 defense and very good offense).

Neither team is elite on the boards, so we should have advantage there against both.

UCLA forces turnovers (although less without Clark), so maybe we'd rather have Gonzaga? But Gonzaga has better shooters, especially with Singleton banged up.

I think maybe UCLA just because they're banged up and will be playing 48 hours after. But they have the better PG, so maybe Gonzaga?

 

[Dove]

What was UCLA's biggest lead?

Definitely UCLA.

Alex could play a role in this too.

 

[EROCK CONN]

And the B-10 out of the tournament.

At this point, it’s almost surprising that a big 10 team won the big 10 championship.

I thought so too. It would have been a rematch of WCC Final. WCC plays their tourny games here on this court

Shut up, Dove

 

[uconngb]

Gotta say I’m enjoying watching another Mick Cronin meltdown

24 point turnaround in the 2nd half…..the poor little fella is just never gonna get there

 

[kobe]

10 MINUTES WITH NO FGS??? NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE

GOOD NIGHT, SAFE TRAVELS BACK TO LA

 

[uconngb]

Love watching the leprechaun shrivel up in the moment.

It’s like death and taxes…..

 

[AdamaNation]

Preferred to play UCLA but an exhausted Timme and a chance to thwart the zags in the EE again works.

 

[CTBasketball]

UCLA hasn’t scored in 11 minutes. Mick using the ole Cincinnati gameplan tonight.
