umm... Arizona doesn't have a PG to run the show? TJ McConnell is one of the best PGs in the country, is top-10 in asst/TO ratio and always makes the right play.

You are confusing not having a point to run the show... with offenses that run a lot of set plays. Arizona runs a true motion offense, they do not have one ball handler at the top of the key who calls out plays and puts them into action, they have 4 ball handlers who are interchangeable in a constantly flowing motion.

Arizona's offense has never been an issue, it is their shot selection that comes into question. When they miss shots, many are early in the shot clock and forced, such as Rondae Jefferson taking pull-up 15 footers off the dribble, something that he has done 3 or 4 times all season. Not his game.
This is why this game is within 3.
Players shooting too early in the clock and 1on1 play. <------This has to stop if they want to win.

You're right, TJ is beating people off the dribble without question. He is getting into the lane time and time again and scoring at will while dishing to his open teammates. He can beat any Wisconsin player off the dribble and penetrate at will.

Wait a minute. He is 1-4 from the field with 0 assists.

This one is not about the ref's. Neither team is playing their game and that is because the defenses are doing their jobs. I really wasn't expecting much from the Arizona offense. I was expecting a lot from the Arizona defense and they delivered the goods. Good job by Arizona so far. It's their defense that wins games.

Sure guy. Because everybody knows that when your analysis of a player and a team is completely wrong, you fall back upon the stats from one half to back up your opinion. Everybody knows that you can only judge a player by 1 half of 1 game, you never take in the full body of work.

Why do all of the Badgers make a stink face after every single call? Who do they think they are? NBA players?

You would think that some of these guys have never committed a foul in their life.
