We were doomed from the start with 5 straight turnovers. But the fact was at that point we only trailed 4-0. We could have righted the ship. Need contributions from Foreman, Detley, and Antecivich. But they collectively couldn't hit the side of a barn yesterday. Sure, part of the problem was that there were very few open looks, but the reliance on Bradley is kind of absurd. We actually look significantly worse when he plays a lot of minutes then we did when he was absent.
I didn’t have an issue with Matt’s shot selection. Mostly because it was late in the clock and we needed him to create something out of nothing. The issue was that when the ball was moving and we’re doing what we did the last 3 weeks, it wasn’t effective because that’s all Arizona defended against to take away. Then the issue was we had no secondary offense to generate looks outside of clear outs for Matt.

Enjoyed the article.
Of the two I'm more annoyed about the ASU game, maybe because it actually felt winnable.
But how much of that was our doing and how much of it was how bad ASU was too? Hahaha
