GAME THREAD: Pepperdine @ GU - 1. 04. 2020

[White lightning]

If this team thinks they can just turn it on and win they will loose several in conference. Pepperdine playing hard. D"ing up bringing the double when Filip gets the ball. Filip needs to go to the rim with attitude. Stop flipping it up. He's so slow when he gets the ball. Playing Watson is like having 4 on 5 on offence

Zags doubled the screen roll with Ross first time down the floor with Tillie

[bballbeachbum]

going to the force feed to Petro early

[bballbeachbum]

the next 2 times, Tillie switched onto Ross and did well, misses

I always appreciate how you see the game Dixie as you know

personnel and scheme to me, and playng with the cards in your hand. let's see what Zags do 2nd half.

what you mention we used to call hero D. don't know if that label still exists. symptoms include overhelping, leaving shooters open to help when not needed looking for steal or something, being late on the rotations searching steals or blocks, missing box outs going for blocks, etc.

Yes, that sounds exactly what I'm seeing. "Hero D" is perfect name for the high risk stuff I see on effort, but not basics, and I see some (less) on the offensive end.

going hard to Petro in the post, finishing, forced a double and Tillie dunked

Petro needs to throw down more. He's hesitant and gets doubled

Elsewhere, Mr. Brady & the Pats are done for the year.

Wow.

Didn't see that coming.

Buffalo v. Texans one of best NFL games I've seen.

Makes me nervous for Saints tomorrow, they were a Seahawk inch away from Number one seed.

His 40 mins vs Portland catching up to him?

He looks checked out

[CdAZagFan]

Wish the Zags would start pushing the offensive tempo again - need some easy buckets.

[MDABE80]

No defense

[GrizZAG]

I really miss Brandon Clarke.

[bballbeachbum]

that zone for Pep, pressuring out of it, and Zags can't score all of the sudden with missed FTs

[Zagger]

Well, in my score prediction I said I wanted to see Pepperdine play well. Hey, not this well!

[Alum08]

Tillie time.

[Zags11]

Zags gonna catch some L's if they dont fix how they come out.

[LTownZag]

1 point total from Woolridge and Gilder.

[RenoZag]

We've been collectively saying most of this season that the free-throw line woes would eventually beat us. . .

add a healthy dose of Colbey Ross and the upset possibility is real.

C'mon Zags, you can do this.

[Goshzagit]

Free layups, easy shots, lazy passes, unforced TO's, just really poor basketball on both sides

[bballbeachbum]

going to the bigs almost exclusively 2nd half unless in transition

[Zags11]

They look sluggish and just weird last cpl games.
