I've haven't watched games for years because the play is so poor. Usually follow on twitter here and there because I always want them to win. So I decided to give the game a couple minutes at the start of the second half. Within a few minutes Tres throws a lazy pass into the post and from about 15 feet for a TO. Then on the other end he trails his player around and if a Utah player, who had the ball at the high post, had any game could have thrown it to the block to his player for a lay in but Utah is someone else's problem. Then a few moments later Tres is defending as part of double team on the low block and makes an incredibly poor effort in keeping the offensive player from splitting the double team and laying it in.
Some have mentioned him for POY? Can't even imagine that's possible but Hardin doesn't play defense so who knows. This team is poorly coached and I'm not even talking in an x and o's manner. I'm talking about holding them to an expectation of good play. Though I love my team, wins by them are fools gold in the bigger picture of becoming an NCAA tourney team.

This post aged really poorly... Anybody can look at any game and pull out a lowlight. Others can look at an overall body of work. Calling out Tres in a 31 point game when he dominated on the whole makes this look ridiculous. OSU just landed back to back road wins for the first time in?  damned if I know. I has to be a REAL long time. |

Tres had a two minute sequence of ineffectiveness, i think it was more than offset by the last 10 minutes of the game. Gnawitall, did you turn the game off or continued watching. If so you missed a heck of a dominating performance by both Tres and Kylor.

The first half was one of our best halves all season. If you would have watched you would have started a “that was actually pretty impressive” thread.
Also a road sweep for a bubble-ish team is probably the exact opposite of fools gold.

10 years is too long, glat that's over. More impressive is 6 and 3 in league play, 5 of those games on the road, for the first time in 26 years.

First road sweep in 10 years, best 9 game start since 92-93? 2nd win in program history at Utah, wire to wire win today and we actually have an airing of the grievances thread.
This is why we can’t have nice things.

I do have something to rant and complain about. The Beavers are winning when I’m not watching. I want to see them win.

I was raised watching Ralph's teams and coached by someone similar so I have an expectation of play. I'm glad for all the 'first time' since's for sure but know we will not achieve prolonged success if we don't do the little things and those little things take effort and it's the coaches job to make sure they happen. |

Basketball is not played like “Ralph’s teams” anymore. Like it or not. Now, get off my lawn! Are you the real Gilligan? You’re posting like you are. |

Tinkle is a losing coach! Uh, we're 14-7, 6-3.
We'd be better off without Tres! Uh, he scores 31 today and is our best player, one of the best in the conference, and will be a two-time Pac-12 all-star (but what do the coaches know).
We rely too much on one guy! Uh, I guess that's only OK when the guy is Gary Payton.
We never win Pac-12 games! Uh, we're 6-3.
OK, but we never win on the road! Uh, we're 3-2 in road league games.
We played like crap against UW! UW is undefeated in league play and clearly the class of the Pac-12.
OK, we are winning, we have a winning Pac-12 record, and we have a winning road league record but we didn't look great for 40 minutes! Uh, I surrender. Life is short. Appreciate the good days, and a day when you win a road game to sweep a road series that many consider to be the toughest in the Pac-12 is a good day.
