I’m glad we’re crushing them...

...but man Arizona is horrible. They look like a hastily thrown-together AAU all-star team. Individual talent...yes. But I’m not sure I’ve seen such a poor “fit”of players on one team. And they really don’t seem to care. I know missing Rawlie Alkins is hurting them, but there’s something more going on with that crew.

That said, Haarms makes me hopeful that we’re jot going to be killed in the post going forward. Him and Williams will make a formidable front court.

I like that Randolph kid. Ayton will be big time. Trier seems like a chemistry killer though.

I will be roiting for them to turn it around so this becomes a signature win

Me too. That’s why I’m glad Alkins is out...he is good.

So, does Purdue get credit for beating the #2 team?

Yes, according to one of the guys calling the game.

I hope they do...but that is not even a top25 team, much less #2. This week exposed a ton of problems for Zona.

Yes Arizona will be one of the teams to beat come March and they have next years Number 1 NBA pick on the floor

I would chill on the #1 draft pick stuff.

Last year's #1 was on a Washington team with a losing record. The one before that, Simmons LSU team didn't make the tournament.

Arizona will recover, I think, but the #1 pick thing isn't that relevant for team success- at least recently

It will depend on Alkins. Insert him back in and hope the team turns around come March. You do wonder just how long are they going to collapse before they turn it around. They may be looking at a crap seed if they continue this regression.

 

[saratogashaw]

Ok but what I meant was the team clearly has talent - and although they may have been prematurely ranked #2 that guy is a total stud

Love that Alkins kid tho.
