Players look like they are at a 5:00 AM practice, what an embarrassing and pathetic effort so far in a must win game. This team clearly is lacking maturity. They are consistently standing around on both sides of the ball.

This has just been ugly so far for the Ducks. There's really no excuse for it.

Horrible defense to close the half as they allow Cal to get a wide open dunk after they split basically a triple team. They really don't deserve to win this game if they do come back. Not sure what the heck they were preparing for yesterday if this is what they're getting today.

The ending to the half is very fitting for how this game has gone.

I’m very ashamed of this performance. They’re playing like a bunch of spoiled brats who care more about posting TikTok videos than playing basketball. I know they’re college students but I can’t fathom playing so unmotivated at this point in the season, gutless performance in the first half with no pride.

Geez, you come out with some of most asinine in game takes. What about their play makes them spoiled brats? They’re in a shooting slump and Cal is shooting unsustainably well. It’s a clunker, but many of Cal’s makes are outside twos that you’d be happy to take teams take. They’re just making them at a much higher percentage than they usually would.

Oregon should have been attacking the basket once they missed their 4th or 5th three in a row. This team likely makes Altman throw his hands up at times.

If you think this is simply a case of Oregon being in a shooting slump then you must have never played basketball.

Guess I haven’t played at as high a level as you to determine that every time a team has a bad half it’s because they have no pride and are spoiled brats. Impossible for a team to just play poorly or another team play well. They were missing wide open threes left and right. If only they had more willpower to make the shot go through!

Cal is a lousy team and the Ducks today are worse. one of eighteen for threes so how about going to the basket instead - just a thought. Why does ALtman not tell them to cool it with the threes?

They're going to have to win the Pac-12 Tournament to make it to the NCAA Tournament. This was an inexcusable loss and they need to do some soul-searching. At times it just feels like Altman has no idea what to do with this team to get them motivated.

They gave up 33 points to a Cal player who only averages 13 and was their only player to go into double digits today. This team reminds of the 2017-18 team, which would look good at times and then just look horrid the next.
