Yeah, he looks like a young, and very tall Steven Seagal with that bob-tail do.
And yeah, it could have been more, but a 5 point lead over the Zags isn't too bad. Got to come out from the half and jump on them good.
OFC
we are playing good defense.
jah needs to be more aggressive on the offensive side when he posts low. he is waiting too long and the double team is coming over.
why can't we score on the last play of the half?

We're doing ok, considering everything. Don't like our spacing, hope someone saw that and we adjust. Okafor must impose his will in the 2nd half.
Tyus & Quinn, turn it up please. Like our position right now, just focus and talk on "D".
Go Duke!!

Not great but I'm ok where we are at. Their two bigs have 3 & 2 fouls respectively and Sabonis concerns me more then Karnowski. If we can adjust and figure out how to slow Wiltjer a bit we will be in good shape. Karnowski can't guard Jah by himself. I've seen glaciers move faster than that guy.
I'd also tel Tyus to stay aggressive.

Hope we crash the boards and get a couple of run-outs in the second half, Zags don't seem to handle that real well. God, I love these kids and cannot stand to see them lose. Keep the 3/4 court pressure on, it is bothering them.
I want to see us cutting down these nets in a little bit!!
Go Duke!!

I'm with you on this, but those long balls just aren't falling regularly enough. I agree with getting the ball to Jah and letting him go to work. Also get Justise back into attack mode. I'd love if we could hit a couple of those 3s.
Our defense has been outstanding. We're struggling on offense.
Gonzaga is good, guys. It's almost as if some of thought this was going to be a 20-point win and over by halftime. I'm pretty encouraged with how we looked considering our offense hasn't been good. We're 20 minutes from a Final Four. It's not all that bad.

We have botched our usage of Jah all game. Not giving it to him on time in the low block, then making him have to catch the ball at the top of the key and having him drive from the 3 pt line is why he picked up the last foul.
We establish Jah from the start of this 2nd half or we could lose.
We must survive! Cmon Devils!!

I have faith in this team. They all love to compete and they will win this one for their Captain Cook!

They want it more than us, they will find a way to win! I hope we can get our transition game going and win by 12.
I usually don't like to complain about officials but we were robbed 3 times on bad calls in the first half. The Okafor charge especially- should be 3-4 fouls on Sabonis and 1 on Okafor.
Now I am worried the freshmen have lost their confidence. Very frustrating bec I think we are better and should be up 7-8.

I would like to see Allen get some minutes and penetrate to the basket. I think he could help with making our offense more productive.
