Not sure that was a pro-ASU crowd though as it was clearly a pro-Arizona crowd, even for our game.
I think this is a very good point. I have to keep reminding myself that these guys are not robots. You can't assume that if we were 23 points better than them in the first half, we should still be 23 points better than them in the second. It almost never works that way in sports. I agree with you that the key was that ASU, despite playing better in the second half with more energy, never made us nervous. We did enough to hold a lead in the high teens throughout. Nice win!
Yes he did, and you could see several of the ASU guys hang their heads after both of them as if to say a comeback tonight is hopeless
Collins kept trying to get Buie rest and we had immediate issues turning the ball over. We’ve played pretty well a couple of times this season without him on the floor but last night was not one of them. Langborg needs to make better decisions on his passes. And Clayton stopped his dribble just past half court. We need to get Clayton minutes in this next game.
There have definitely been a few lazy passes in the last three games. Just needs a little more zip maybe, or better awareness of the speed of his opponents.
It would just be nice to find someone who can run the offense when Buie is out without turning the ball over. Hopefully, Clayton is that guy with more experience. Don’t need him to be a scorer. Just get us into the offense so we can get a good shot in each possession. Greer would be perfect this year.
I was shocked when Clayton picked up the ball, under pressure, just across the line and without someone obviously open for a pass. He's been decent handling the ball and that was such a rookie move.
Totally. Or Sobo. A serviceable backup PG will be necessary at some point, which I assume is why Collins is getting Clayton minutes. I wish he had more.
