Don't think he's hit a jumper either.


He just hit a post-up move. I don't think anybody has hit a jumper past 10 feet. Not Young, McCullough, House or Mac.I really don't get having Pangos out there. They need a point guard who can push it.


Cunningham has been the only guy trying to push the pace but he's not looking to create. I guess seeing the players on the floor, maybe for good reason he's trying to take it himself.

Nothing good will happen until Kris Jenkins gets into the game.

He's never given up the ball once he's received it. Complete gunner who doesn't do much else. No doubt, Pangos is a prototypical Gonzaga point guard with no much speed and solid passer. Just think with our athletes, we need a speedier point guard. But beyond that, this was a pathetic first half. Hopefully they settle down in the 2nd half.

I want Mac to step up and take control and buckle up defensively on Selden.

There's a reason why Young wasn't invited to the combine.

If Jared Cunningham is our best player on the SL, we stink. His effort on the other end of the floor is atrocious though he can definitely stroke it.

If Ochefu could just be average on the offensive end, he'd be a decent backup center. His defense hasn't been bad and he does attempt to protect the rim.

McCullough has really struggled, especially with his perimeter shot. He's an athletic slasher but too thin to play the 4 consistently. Mac has struggled with his shot but has stayed aggressive driving to the basket. Jared Cunningham is going 1 on 5, heat-check, iso and has been the most productive offensive player by far.

Ochefu jumps like he has cement blocks tied to his feet.

Young has a nice back-to-the-basket game. Now he has to work on the 3-point shot.

It's like he's patterned his game after former Wizard, Dejuan Blair.

He does have four blocks though.

McCullough may have cost his team the game with an ally oop pass that Godzilla couldn't catch. His BB IQ is not all that high.

Look, Ochefu is here for his defense and rebounding. His offense is horrific though he can pass, but if you can play D in the SL, that's not a bad thing because nobody else does.

Why does McCullough have the ball so much with the game on the line.

Selden got away with an MJ push off.
