Honestly? We desperately need to develop Curtis and recruit bigs. Aimaq ain't it. I appreciate that he has helped bring us back to this point where our expectations are back. But he only plays like one half of offense at a time and doesn't really play defense. His rebounds are because he doesn't defend and just waits for th e ball.

Having actual presence in the paint is going to be what elevates us.

Also, we're really missing Askew. Imagine if he were starting and Cone came off the bench instead.

When they start that hot and you start that cold....it's an uphill battle. Sad to go out like that, but we're not in the same class, apparently.

These AZ start times always screw me up. By the time I realized the game was already being played, we were well past cooked and I was able to go about my evening w/o torturing myself watching. Adios Tuscon. Have fun playing in Ames, Morgantown, and Waco.

Upset in Tucson for a third straight win? Apparently not. But we still hung 65 on #11.

Yes. Arizona's style of play is very NBA like run and shoot and run and shoot and our guys will hit more shots than your guys. Cal doesn't play defense enough to throw them off and our guys don't shoot well enough to beat them at their own game. Simple as that.
