UW/Utah game thread

Hearing Calabro say "Kemp" does something for me.

Other than that, Dreckfestivus.
 
If we are going to talk about the # 8 vs. #9 seed of the Pac 12 tournament I am out, but if we want to talk about creepy things then I am back IN.
 
Our bigs are so fucking worthless.

I'd take the Mike Jensen/Hakeem Rollins dreckfest over these fucks.
 
I watched my first minute of UW basketball since January. Nice final play drawn up by Romar. Dribble around then NWG tries to isolate his guy and jacks up a contested three.

Romar has set himself up for life.

He's a great guy ... He'd be great on TV or coaching at Portland State.... Or Oregon Tech ... Or SPU ... Or Whitman ...

If he's back for 2015 the season is officially over.
 
.... And this isn't HHB speak ... He is a great great guy. He say down and talked with me for 15 minutes one time ... Doesn't even know me ... Just say down and shot the shit with me ...
 
A Romar coached team never fails to disappoint.

Tie game with 40 seconds left. Utah entered the game as a 5.5 point favorite in Vegas.

I still had faith that a Utah -5.5 would happen.

With 35 seconds left in the game and a timeout, there's still at least 3 possessions left in the game. Pull everybody out over the 3 point line and get penetration to the basket and play the steal/foul game and force your opponent to make 4-6 free throws before having to resort to playing the need to shoot a contested 3 point shot.

As soon as you saw the set on the inbounds play it was obvious that the play call was a screen to try to get Wilcox open for a quick 3 (which even if he makes it is stupid in the sense that it gives Utah 25 seconds then to play for the last shot). Utah isn't stupid and easily had that play defended. Instead of having secondary action off of that design to get a quick score, there was nothing set up on it other than running more or less a 3 man weave at the top and try to find the first person that could get enough of a look to jack up a shot.

Fucking dreckfest coaching as usual by Romar ... time for him to get an extension.

The drawn up play prior was just as bad. Everyone stood around while CJ Wilcox tried to post his guy up at the 3 line. After a few futile attempts by CJ to shake him off, NGW comes back to the ball, takes it, drives as the shot clock is expiring and makes the play.

Ernie gives a backhanded comment that was spot on. Saying something like Good Point Guards make good coaches i.e. Goss just bailed out potato head.
 
The only time isolation basketball works is if the guy in the isolation situation is a great passer - doubly so if you are talking about someone in the post.
