Game Thread: PAC 12 Championship Game

[Monte Carlo Wildcat]

I will respond to Monte and Gumby as needed but FT's define the Wildcats for the tourney.
Good luck.


And BTW good game to NJ tonight.

Here's the thing bro, I honestly don't mind you being in here but all you do is talk trash. I've never seen you engage in a intelligent basketball conversation in here. I assume you know more than you lead on but instead of talking basketball you choose to be 'that guy.' And nobody likes 'that guy.'

Thanks for having me here Cats fans, this was anybody's game up till the end!

Good luck in the Tourney, I wish we had your seeding!

Oh yeah, and forgive me all but it is what it is.

Bruins, PAC12 TOURNEY Champions!

FIFY

Few things:

1). Why the hell didn't York start? I feel like we needed his shooting at the start of the game and we've been on such a roll with him starting. Just a head scratching move if you ask me.

2). Is that 3 PAC 12 championships in a row we've lost? Fml

3). Regardless, we're the 1 seed in the west

Of course that had a lot to do with it but we have to make FTs, especially when you are struggling offensively like we were in that stretch
The tourney will be filled with close games and when you fail to convert those (they're free after all) you leave yourself susceptible to shots like Adams' to lose the game. Teams get hot in the tourney and make some crazy shots. We really need to learn how to convert our easy opportunities and put distance between ourselves and other teams in the 2nd half of games. As good as Arizona is, the margin for error we have is very small. (As is for practically all CBB teams the past few years)

Right but when you have Gordon throw up a shot like that something isn't right. Last 5 minutes I didn't see much conversion, I saw a lot of chaos.

It was very uncharacteristic of him, he's been a very smart player all year.

OHhh, I know hoops Mr. Monte (trust me)
I do recall last year you and a few others saying ASU would not make the dance. Well, screw you! How's that for trash? I bet I know more UOFA hoops history than you and I will be 'google free'

What that tweet is saying is we shot the same exact FT % (65.5%) during our national title season as this season.
