one of the best Cal games I've ever attended, Haas was live, against our rival and down to the last shot

Nice emotion from Madsen after we won. With Celestine doing well we have enough scorers. If we end up on the positive side for the season we should make the NIT. We are a big long shot to win the Pac 12. Wonder how close we came to a sellout. It's been a long time since Cal had them rocking in Haas!!!!!

Whatever happens the rest of the year, my confidence in this coaching staff to RE-build this program is high.

My heart is very full at this moment

KetamineCal's avatar

My heart is still trying to recover.

Erlyn madsen's avatar

Mine too. I thought I might need an ambulance.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

The Celestine Game!!!

Great win!!’

KetamineCal's avatar

New scoring option unlocked!

KetamineCal's avatar

Tyson is back in the huddle and standing upright.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

MAKE YOUR DAMN FREE THROWS.

OC Bear's avatar

the difference in FT stroke between us and them is night and day. (And I'm not a hoops guy, and I can see it)

KetamineCal's avatar

That sequence gave me palpitations. Wow.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Celestine kept them in this.

Let’s close it out!! C’mon Bears!!!

OC Bear's avatar

doe he think he's a slasher?

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Furd has a point guard.

We do not.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Make a free throw Aimaq.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Gonna need to start getting some stops here on out, tho the refs starting to swing things Furd’s way with the whistles.

KetamineCal's avatar

Cone didn't get his legs into that one. Yikes.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

He’s been brutal tonight.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Cone’s killing them

KetamineCal's avatar

Aimaq is deadly on the block.

OC Bear's avatar

FT's are gonna cost us another game

OC Bear's avatar

Celestine got away with a push off there

hoopdreams's avatar

Every time we get close we do something dumb

OC Bear's avatar

wth? a foul on Tyson? Can't wait to get new refs next year

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

We’ll still see that asshat Tony Padilla.

KetamineCal's avatar

We look much better with a faster pace. And Furd seems to be missing more shots in transition.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Cone’s gonna have to get it going.

KetamineCal's avatar

Even our free throws look like bricks.

OC Bear's avatar

one basket in the first 4 minutes of the half is a recipe for disaster

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

This team needs post-defenders next year in the worst way

KetamineCal's avatar

Hopefully we can find some shooting in the locker room.

OC Bear's avatar

instead we open with a TO; check that, two possessions, 2 TO's

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

They look like they’ve never seen a 2:3 zone in their lives. Brutal.

KetamineCal's avatar

Kinda weird to see Aimaq in iso out there.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Let’s get Cone a bucket before half.

OC Bear's avatar

Cone with a great look off the curl, but rushed the shot

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

He’s way off. Not really close on the looks.

OC Bear's avatar

I defer to your expertise, but by my eyes, he was off bcos he was rushed and didn't need to hurry that time. (be quick , but don't hurry)

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Looks like he’s really rushing things a bit.

KetamineCal's avatar

Cone is ice cold. That was a perfect look though.

KetamineCal's avatar

Finally Fardaws is getting room to work in the post.

OC Bear's avatar

lost the rythm, and now just playing hero ball

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

That deep 3 by Brown with 27 secs on the shot clock SMDH

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Brown isn’t up for this intensity. Grab a seat.

OC Bear's avatar

if they keep hitting 3's, we have no chance (as we can't defend the 3)

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Nope. We really can’t defend 2’s either.

OC Bear's avatar

sad, but true, and right now the TO's are 4:1

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

That Rodney Brown heave screwed up the entire flow.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Cal can’t really defend without fouling.

OC Bear's avatar

talk about a quick first step...

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Sure but Brown totally off balance.

OC Bear's avatar

yes, and no backside help. Everyone just watching the game go by

KetamineCal's avatar

Picking up the pace seems to have loosened the Furd defense that was stifling us on the perimeter. Love to see Tyson get a lane.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Let’s get Cone a good look and get him going.

KetamineCal's avatar

Fardaws is getting all his passing lanes denied on the perimeter.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Aimaq is a horrible defender. 2x DPOY?? How.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Brutal start. Can’t get a good shot and can’t defend.

Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

Somebody wanna guard Spencer Jones.
