...and when I awoke this morning it was still true. What a game. We were the better team. Every time they showed a possible 2nd half run, we immediately shut that thought down. So impressed.

Gonzaga played well for 6 minutes & destroyed Purdue.
Purdue stayed cool, listened to their coach, responded & played well for 34 minutes & absolutely dismantled Gonzaga.
Either way Drew Timme was the best player on the floor, but unfortunately for him, Purdue clearly was the best team on the floor.
I imagine Purdue's confidence is off the charts today after that welll deserved win against a quality top 10 team.
too bad that OL we had Greg from UTEP wasn't on our sidelineI will admit at the start of the season I was expecting sort of a moderate, up and down year. I didn't like the starting five combination. But Painter is doing a great job and all 10 guys are contributing and playing really hard. The Newman highlight spilling the beer was great.
wonder if Bilas will do the game? he was good the other night but the studio guys were bad except for CrispinDidn’t get to see it, but with us in spirit.
Great win! Let’s beat Duke!! I hate the Blue Devils!
I am not sure that Timme is better than Edey. I think that Edey has clearly closed the gap, anyway, and they are just different types of players.Gonzaga played well for 9 minutes & destroyed Purdue.

Timme was the 2nd best player on the floor. He didn't effect the defensive end like Zach does. If you only watch the offensive end you could possibly say that. Zach effects the other teams offense so much because you have to be conscious of where he is at. Do you think Purdue gets as many open looks from 3 without playing through Zach?Gonzaga played well for 9 minutes & destroyed Purdue.

More versatile just not as dominant. Timme doesn't effect the defensive end.Timme is much more versatile than Edey, its not really close. More tools in his tool box, starting with footwork and hands.
Edey def has the advantage on the defensive size, but thats just natural size vs ability...Timme is no slouch tho, blocked Z's shot early on...he plays hard. Ultimately, two different types of players, not really a great comparison.More versatile just not as dominant. Timme doesn't effect the defensive end.
Defensive size is part of the impact Edey has. That is why he impacts the college game more. Lot of shots not attempted by GU players in the paint last night because of Zach. I didn't see Purdue players intimidated like GU's were.Edey def has the advantage on the defensive size, but thats just natural size vs ability...Timme is no slouch tho, blocked Z's shot early on...he plays hard.

Oh I completely agree, but I think the happenstance of organic size can only do so much, and while in Edey's case, does a TON, but a player like Timme is going to be generally more dynamic...especially in the NBA.Defensive size is part of the impact Edey has.
