Another reason to hate the WCC

Pacific O is now Gallinat between the circles 1v1 late in the clock

[TexasZagFan]

This is tedious to watch. We all get why Pacific is doing it, but gawd is it hard to watch.

Worse yet, students don't return until next week. I remember the good old days, with a month for Christmas break, and spring semester closing in the first week in May. I had a month head start on summer jobs vs. students in California.

Pacific with 5 FGs and 8 TOs

Our D looking a lot improved

Make that 11. Pacific is really sleeping on defense, too.

[23dpg]

Took Pacific under 30 for 1st half and Pacific under 67 for the game... so I'm not devastated.

Like owning a money printing press.

I'm digging this. different kind of challenge

Is Petrusev sick? He's played exactly 0 minutes in the first half. Tillie, Corey and JJ on the court at the same time and no Petrusev? sigh

He’s the 9th man in an 8 man rotation. I think that’s his short term future.

Why do we have an 8 man rotation when we have someone as talented on the bench? Again, Few had Tillie, Corey and JJ on the court at the same time.

[Kong-Kool-Aid]

Pacific is falling apart.

Limited number of minutes to go around and he's a true freshman.

[jazzdelmar]

Scored 11 vs Duke. Few’s playing with fire.

Tillie needs minutes more than anybody right now. (To get in game shape). He is eating Petrusev’s minutes. My best guess.

now at 5 FGs and 14 TOs

[thespywhozaggedme]

So what if he's a "true freshman" what a ridiculous answer. He's better than Corey and JJ. It's Few being Few again.

[jazzdelmar]

Bingo.

Maybe. I think the regulars will still need their minutes over the next 3 months to keep sharp. First world problems.

So why not Tille and Petrusev in together? Instead we see Tillie, Corey and JJ on the court at the same time.

[jazzdelmar]

Plus he’s been recruited over.

[bballbeachbum]

awesome D effort, those combinations out there really brought the D heat from positions 1-5 as a group

[thespywhozaggedme]

Plus he’s been recruited over.

Well, Timme is a 4 and I think Pavel is gonna redshirt and Ballo will back up Petrusev, but these type of games are the exact games he should be getting 15-20 minutes in. I suspect he'll get plenty of garbage time in the 2nd half but to play 0 minutes in the firat half is kind of a slap in the face considering how well he's played all season.

[bballbeachbum]

Zags with 9 TOs, every player contributing at least one but JJ
