Game Thread: Long Beach State @ AZ

[gordontrue]

Yes! So this is where everybody went... glad to see the gang getting back together.

Anyone else feel like last year's curse of teams sudden ability to hit difficult, contested 3's when they play Arizona continued with Cal Poly? Let's hope it doesn't cause Long Beach looks like they like to jack up 3's in high volume.

Long Beach shot 34% from the field (22% from 3) vs Hawaii Pacific? Yikes!

6'0" Caffey absolutely carried them offensively... that will be a tough task against the backcourt defense of TJ and Nick.

What up man, good to see you on here! Yeah, Sting pulled us all together, big thanks to him!

Great that the group is building, can't wait to get everyone on here, but it's great to have so many of the die-hards.

I really think that LBSU are a little too one-dimensional. Looks like Caffey is their entire offense, and Jennings is the majority of their rebounding. If we can get our back court to shut Caffey down, and our bigs to keep Jennings from getting boards, it could go far to shutting them completely down.

GAMEDAY!!!!!

Hey all, great thread so far it seems! Good to see some guys from the old ESPN threads. I have become an Arizona basketball correspondent for isportsweb.com this season and have been posting postgame reviews of each game so far and will continue to add more content as the season progresses. Just my opinionated thoughts on each game. Definitely worth a read for those who enjoy looking beyond the box score. Look forward to covering what should be a great season. Also, you can follow me on twitter @afoshie for article updates or visit the website for all content. Thanks, and Bear Down.

What score did you guess????

 

[The Derski]

Don't remember exactly unless I scroll through all of them I think 90-68

 

[The Derski]

We dropped 90+ on them last season so I hope we break 90 tonight.

BTFD!

It is funny to think that Kaela King got kicked off of LBSU.. after getting kicked off of the sundevils the year before. I remember when he was a frosh in Tempe, they hailed him as "the next Harden" (6'5" from L.A.).

Now Harden 2.0 is playing his ball in division 3

 

[GumbySquad]

TJ with a good pass, Tarc with a good finish. Nice way to start your first possession.

Lots of easy buckets. Keep it up

Still need to work on defensive rebounding. We should easily out rebound just about every team but we haven't seen it yet.
