I didn't watch any either until the last two games. Man, they just play on another level. They are like some supercharged version of the old Princeton offense. Everyone is in the right spot, taking all the right angles, and it all ends up in a lay-up or kicked out for a nice, easy three point attempt. They way they run it, it looks like they are barely raising a sweat - like Neo fighting Agent Smith with one hand in the final scene of the Matrix. The other teams struggle to put up bad shots, and Gonzaga gets a good shot almost every time. So of course, they are going to eventually build a lead, and they just never let up. I don't think Oregon would have a prayer, to be honest. Unless they just all started hitting threes like they were doing vs. Iowa for awhile.ducks5ever wrote:I didn't watch the USC Gonzaga game (or any Gonzaga games this year). You all think we could've had a shot against Gonzaga?
Hopefully the Pac-12 will be less of an afterthought once we get a new Pac-12 commissioner......
I don't know if Altman would ever be able to create a system like that, but for certain it would require most of the team to come in as freshmen and develop a few years. Watching them just makes one wish that the Ducks could get a proper pipeline going like Mark Few has.
