    Official 2009 WCC Championship Game Thread - GU vs SMC

    On ESPN, tip is @ 6:00PST

    ----------------------------

    Mills isn't at 100% yet and showed that his shot is a bit rusty tonight. Also, I noticed that his hand is still swollen, this might affect his play. I hope he can give a near 100% performance to put all this shoulda/coulda/would a business to rest about the games we played against SMC when he wasn't there. He's not going to drop six 3s in the first half this time, that's a guarantee.

    Samhan played well tonight, however, against an unimpressive big tonight. He'll need a great game coupled with Simpson and Mills clicking on all cylinders to beat our full balanced attack as of late.

    With Pargo playing his best ball of the year, I'm looking forward to this matchup. Mills' flat out quickness vs Pargos sheer athleticism. I'm not saying that Pargo will be able to shutdown Mills by any means, but Mills won't be able to run wild with the 3s and he's too small to be too proficient in the paint against our bigs. I expect a 15pt/8ast night by Mills.

    Simpson's battle will be the toughest, seeing as Samhan and Mills will be watched heavily by Heytvelt and Pargo respectively. Daye and Downs can cover this guy pretty well, as he's not an outside threat and is pretty horrible at the free thrown line. He'll have to get in the paint a lot, which he hasn't had too big of an issue doing against GU this year.

    The X factor is Gray for us as he's yet to have a breakout game in the final half of the season. SMC's X factor will be their bench.

    GU thrives in neutral venues...
    GU - 78
    SMC - 67

        At least be over in time for a 6:10pm tip. I doubt E$PN can push the tip more than that...

            This Vegas thing is working out very well...the future is bright in the WCC (especially for our Zags)! T-minus 34 minutes. Still tied Lothar.

              The SoCon game looks like it'll go a few minutes long. Hopefully no more than 10 minutes.

                  Ya .... you had to figure that Libbey would do the championship game.

                  I hope that it isn't close at the end (so that he doesn't have an opportunity to do something).

                    Well Libbey is definitly not going to let the bigs just play, and I think he will make it tough for a favored team to win, as seems to be his MO.

                          Chattanooga has about the same record as Santa Clara. Barely over .500.
