Pritchard never really improved onto his Senior year. I thought he was going to kill other teams but he does not. Hello NIT.

Poor execution in the last 2 minutes is going to cost Oregon another game. Team just can't get out its own way at times.

There is no go to player on this team . We need a good shooting point guard desperately.

I really wish Altman would stop putting the ball in Pritchard's hands so he can just dribble the ball into the ground and then take a bad shot or commit a turnover. This is just a poorly constructed roster right now if no one else is trustworthy enough to even touch the ball on a final possession.

I guess Altman is doing what he can with what he has. How did it come to this? I don't remember what happened.

Mostly this season. I knew with our ace players gone to the NBA that there would be a off time but this year I don't know.

Re: Washington @ Oregon (Thu 6 PM ESPN2)
It's a combination of several factors. Injuries have taken away the best scorer and slowed the team's overall development/chemistry. The team is depending on way too many young players with little upperclassmen leadership to help out. Also, the team lacks any real shooters or scorers. That comes down to poor roster construction and player retention/development.rockthief wrote:Mostly this season.

We could really use Cole Anthony. Never doubt the importance of quality guard play in college basketball.

Now why would that be? This is really sad, as the game slipped away, I wasn't even upset, just shook my head as the Ducks displayed another way to lose a conference game in the final seconds.greenyellow wrote:Get real nervous in these tight games with this team.

Pritchard shouldn't have the ball in his hands late. 2 years of choking at the end of games has shown me enough.
Horrible call to end it, but you can't leave things in the hands of pac12 officials when fuckheads like Nowell are learning James Harden flops.

Way back in the 1970's I used to work the AA Basketball tournament at Mac Court. I would much rather watch the Madras White Buffalo team than this collection of individuals. Judging by all the empty seats I saw during the 15 minutes total I watched I'm not alone.

It is crazy how losing Bol is akin to losing the season. He is/was that good. That being said, and what I have alluded to all season, there is zero consistent shooters on this team. Zero. Amazing Altman and his staff hasn't been able to find a player that can consistently hit a jumper. It almost freaks me out to a point. Even his betting King would be back, and Bol, you would think the icing on the cake would be someone that can shoot the damn ball from any range. Has he been star-gazing at the amount of stars the players are ranked, or is he really studying tape of people that can actually shoot the ball?
