This is a high level basketball game. Didn’t expect UCLA to step up like this.

Wait until next year when Boston and Clarke transfer there.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Sorry I am just not rooting for UCLA, or Juzang for that matter. Who cares if the zags win it all, even an undefeated season stings less than Juzang plus UCLA ship.

I don't mind to see Juzang do well.

But not at the expense of UCLA winning another title and adding to the count.

 

[TortElvisII]

That press isn't exactly Kentucky 1996.

 

[Farsight]

How many UK fans will be pissed off if UCLA some how brings home 12? Would you blame Cal for letting Juzang get away?

 

[ala_kat2]

Probably because I’m pulling for UCLA, but seems Gonzaga is getting a friendly whistle.

 

[FanofUK]

Man they are letting them play, I swear if they would ref our games like this we would win so many more.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

I believe you are right. Its a very friendly whistle. And Im not rooting for UCLA.

 

[Wildcats1st]

Go UCLA
We are all Juzang fans tonite.

lol not if you love our tradition.

Some will no doubt.

But Juzang made the decision. They all make the decision to stay or go. He wanted to be closer to home. It is what it is.

 

[Lempface]

Stripes bailing out Gonzaga

Absolutely, it’s been fairly evenly called and then they bail out the Zags about 4 trips in a row.

 

[ck-2]

I’d rather Gonzaga have a perfect season than ucla win a title.
Side note, I can’t help but watching these teams in the tourney and saying over and over to my son “ that guy would never see the floor on a Cal coached team.”

 

[Blue_2_the_bone_rivals]

Agree. Not pulling for them either but outside of the continuation for Campbell, Zags are getting the bulk of the few calls they’re making.

 

[rick64]

Zags D nonexistent so far.

 

[jessieshorts8]

Some will no doubt.

But Juzang made the decision. They all make the decision to stay or go. He wanted to be closer to home. It is what it is.

But wasn't his second choice Nova lol.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Kispert is going to be such a good pro

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Suggs is going to be such a good pro lol

 

[RoyKent]

Gonzaga playing no defense at all.

 

[Lazlo7]

" He just knows how to score"

 

[hotelblue]

some huge 3’s for the zags because ucla just looks better so far.

 

[ck-2]

So does Juzang go pro after the season?

 

[TortElvisII]

" He just knows how to score"

Have you seen the alphas we got. Lead us to 9.

 

[JoeBeeHall]

It sucks JJ learned how to play at Ky and took those skills to ucla.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Look at these stats so far. So close(throw in 10 lead changes and 5 ties)

Lol

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

" He just knows how to score"

I feel like we were missing that this season lol

 

[hotelblue]

how is ucla losing lol

 

[oldsports_]

"Senior leader"

What is that?

 

[OmahaCats]

It sucks JJ learned how to play at Ky and took those skills to ucla.

Lol not exactly

 

[rick64]

Best half UCLA has probably played all season and they trail by 1. No way they can keep this up.

 

[JoeBeeHall]

Lol not exactly

So the year at Ky did not help him at all ? Playing everyday against Maxey ?

 

[jessieshorts8]

Zags not playing well at all but still winning.

 

[rick64]

"Senior leader"

What is that?

A walk-on at UK.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

"Senior leader"

What is that?

It’s when old people lead

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Gonzaga just shoots the ball so damn well.

 

[king of cali]

Some of you have a funny definition of tight. Gonzaga is shooting 60%, but somehow is tight lol. Give UCLA credit for playing well. The score indicates it’s a Gonzaga type of game. We lose if UCLA slows it down even more.

 

[gwjenning]

Nice seeing great offense! We would be plowing the field in this game

 

[oldsports_]

Cal made Juzang a lottery pick playing him 7 mins a game while at UK

 

[CincyUKFan]

I believe you are right. Its a very friendly whistle. And Im not rooting for UCLA.

Clearly they want Gonzaga to finally win it. I think the Zags end up winning this by 8-10 points. But it will be interesting to see how much help they get against Baylor.

 

[TFCat11]

Juzang is a superstar in the making!
