Arizona vs thread

"He's still the guy from Maine that everybody doubted."

What the absolute f**k? Has he not been the consensus number 1 player in the class since he was in 10th grade? Basically most of high school? What kind of BS narrative are they trying to make? You can't be the greatest recrcruit in the last few years and also be the underdog nobody believed in. Pick a lane.

Flagg is just freaking,,,,,good. What else is there to say? I hate it, but the kid just knows how to play. Not sure I want Zona to win this TBH!

Yes, Flagg is good which is why he doesn't need any help from the refs but Flagg and the rest of Duke are certainly getting it.

There is no doubt, Duke is a legit team. That's was a true road win. Arizona couldn't make shots, but a lot of the credit goes to Duke's defense. This makes our win over them look even more impressive. Arizona was playing at home and averaging 94pts a game. Duke held them to 55 on their home floor. That Wisconsin loss was closer and it was at Madison. Arizona should have been highly motivated. Beating Duke on a neutral court was very impressive.

My opinion about the Duke win too.
 
I didnt come away thinking Zona wasnt good, I came away thinking Zona is best inside the paint and the size of Knueppel , Flagg, and Maluach would be a lot for NBA players to score inside on, never the less college guys. This game makes our win against Duke look better
 
Hey how do you think Duke felt against us. 2 bulldog guards in Butler and Oweh. Jaxson is listed at 6-7 most times. Then inside 6-11 and 7-0 grown men in Carr and Amari. Then our bench comes in with Kerr energy, 21 year old 6-5 fresh Chandler, 6-7 dead eye Brea, 244 lbs Almoror and 6-11 250 Garrison who can do a little of everything. All of those guys with 4 and 5 years experience. Sprinkle in the KY 1st and 3rd all time leading scorers as 11th and 12th men. GG.
 
Maluach keeps guys like Knupple from getting exposed on defense.
Yeah. Ppl won’t like this but they have a similar build to our 2012 champ team…

Malachi plays the Davis role very well (not saying he’s as good as Davis but very impactful) in cleaning up misses, lobs, and altering everything at the rim.

Lamb was a knock down shooter and is what they need Con Knueple to be close to. Beyond that, Flagg is better all around than TJones. Darius Miller is probably the other advantage 2012 UK has. The rest are lean Duke or pushes

I guess I have to root for AZ but I really havn't gotten over them getting a title that would have been UK's without the injury to DA so I won't be cheering.
Not as bad as Christian laettner in 92 DUKE SUCKS that overrated pos should have been thrown out of the game that's when I realized the bias toward Duke
