There's a very good reason that we can't/won't do that.But their defense is really good. At least when I've watched them. They suffocate you. No reason we can't do that.
The problem is Cal preaches Showcase, Players First, Shut The Bennies Up, Titles....in that order.I'm pretty sure if I was in his shoes and was part of a group of guards that just gave up 59 points to 2 guards in a loss, I would be thinking about how can I improve my defense than shots in March....but that's me.
If you are talking about his 3 to win it in regulation, it wasn’t even close. It hit the heel of the rim and bounced way up in the air. Some of you are acting like it went all the way down and popped out. It wasn’t close.That sucker was in and out too.
Reed was subbed out on defense a few trips at the end of the game. That +4 should probably be adjusted for not being in on defense.... adjusted number probably about parDillingham was -10 for the game. Sheppard was +4. Just saying
lol. I can't count the number of times a defender would be stationary in front of the basket on a fast break and he would just put his head down run right into them at full speed and then look puzzled when he got a charge call. He was like an athletic Mr. Magoo.On every drive to the basket, then he would miss and fall to the floor every shot.
He has to control his energy. And he will has he carts more experience. We’ve all seen he’s a wizard. But remember Mickey Mouse in Fantasia with the brooms? Yeah, that is what can happen if Rob gets out of control. He’s a great player and we have to live with his mistakes. You just don’t want them to compile.Why does he have to control it ? Has his dawgness hurt the team?
Grumpy? No. Concerned? Yes. This is like the 4 or 5th game where we’ve given up a ton of points. Except this time we couldn’t outscore them. ZERO FGs on OT. That’s concerning. We’ve. Got to get something resembling a defense besides a subway turnstile.IF, if if.........they won the Fl game.......if UK had won by one or two you would have still been grumpy.........you still have your silks pulled up too tight over a game that they won..........

He did, but Archie had NO ONE to help him out. He just ended up with the ball in his hands as the shot clock was running out and had to make something happen on his own. Archie would have been a fantastic player on many Cal teams.Didn’t Archie Goodwin have that same version of “confidence”?
yea I was down on Goodwin when he was falling down after every layup but looking back, he had very little talent around him. Our PG was scared to go on the court.He did, but Archie had NO ONE to help him out.

You are 10000% right … the focus on shooting and offense is the problem, right now. I’d rather hear …. “ We know we can score, but that will not matter if we cannot get big stops and big rebounds, when we need to. We simply HAVE to improve on those two parts of the game.”I'm pretty sure if I was in his shoes and was part of a group of guards that just gave up 59 points to 2 guards in a loss, I would be thinking about how can I improve my defense than shots in March....but that's me.
You watched the wrong shotIf you are talking about his 3 to win it in regulation, it wasn’t even close. It hit the heel of the rim and bounced way up in the air. Some of you are acting like it went all the way down and popped out. It wasn’t close.
that's my feeling toowe have the players and talent that we should blow out teams up until the elite 8 if not more like UNC, Nova and Uconn have done in titles the last 20 years. If we need that shot to fall down in march.......... cal's already done f**** up making what should be over whelming opponents into needing rock fights.
Cal needs to retire immediately if he cant get a title game appearance with this roster. cant do it with this group, he wont be able to ever do it again with any group
He only shot the one to win it it in regulation. What game were u watching.You watched the wrong shot
Same game and it went in and outHe only shot the one to win it it in regulation. What game were u watching.
What’s confusing about that? Rob is very good. Mickey when he first tarted messing with Yin Sids magic had it under control. But as he tried to do too much it quickly got out of control and caused issues. Rob is the same way. He’s very good at what he does but can get out of control quickly. And we love him either way. But he has to limit those out of control possessions. And he will has he gains playing experience and maturity.
