How Lars Thiemann is a D1 player I'll never know, I could find better players at City College SF.

For such smart kids, Cal plays really dumb basketball

I didn't watch the 2nd half, but reading a recap it sounds like it was a 2-pt game with 2:30 left. Couldn't make our free throws hence we lost.

Losing Bradley at the under 4 timeout in the 1st killed the Bears...they win this game with Matt.

Still, they were dreadful from the line...Lars (3-11), Hyder (2-5) and of course Joel Brown (0-1) combined to shoot 29% from the line in 69 total minutes. That's just flat out f-ing unacceptable....

Plus, this team is just clueless on D....simply lost on defensive rotations, leaving guys you can't leave open WIDE open for 3's. If you're already behind the curve in terms of basketball talent, you can't be shoot 50% from the line. Oregon State was decimated by COVID and fouls....bad loss.

Thiemann one of the softer 7’ers around
