Team can be elite defensively that’s for sure. Question will be if there’s enough skill and talent offensively to contribute points consistently. Still feels like a team that in a different model would be damn good...next year.

Well, I can’t say I’m exactly happy about that half, but I’m satisfied I guess. Mostly.

I already know we'll revert back to sh!tting the bed in the 2nd half and lose by 10. I've been cautiously checking the score, and then immediately turning the channel.

WTF!! Damn zone at the end cost us 2. Happy now Zone Zombies?

Our best half so far.
I don’t recall anytime asking Cal to play a zone there. The timing of that was very odd, but it shows he's trying different things and that's all we can ask for at this point in the season.

What happened to the Isaiah Jackson who completely owned the paint the first half against Kansas?

I noticed that about Askew too. He has always looked like he is running helter-skelter out of control. Today, measured the guard, pump faked him up and drove by making him foul on the way to the basket. I'd have to say I am more than pleasantly surprised with the Cats so far.
Askew needs to watch a LOT of IQ tape and look at the leap he made between freshman and sophomore year. He could be really good

If we could ever get Boston and Clarke playing great together this team could be special. It may come yet, just have to wait and see.

you literally chose one play, congrats moron.
Right. I guess if we abandoned man defense every time we gave up an easy basket we’d have to invent a new defense. He always makes stupid comments. It’s hard to play a zone on only one possession and make it work. Like everything, you actually have to practice and use it.

The kicker is the UNC player didn’t even get fouled on the play but made a tough shot.But Zone bad!
