The CBS stream quality of the tourney games has been interrupting and blurry for me at times (mainly full court camera views), but the close ups, commercials, halftime show, etc. look fine. Anyone else experiencing that?

Wrong! Gonzaga hasn't played anybody that can guard them in the last few weeks. Kispert & Timme are liabilities on defense shoot you can even throw in Nembhard. Creighton is horrible and honestly I don't even know how they made it this FAR. I watch games thoroughly and Timme's game resembles Trendon's so what I would do is put REESE on him because I thought he defended TRENDON way better than HERB. Gonzaga is good but I just think they haven't played anybody that's decent on offense & defense who can matchup with them.

Timme isn’t an athletic rim running center. Bruner is a good matchup.

I believe Gary will guard him

Kispert is a terrific defender.

Reese did ok on Trendon in his first few matchups but he was getting worked in the 2nd half (like everyone else).

But I don't think Watford and Timme have a very similar game so I think we have a few guys that can slow Timme down enough for us to win by ripping 3's - which is the only way we could win such a matchup.

Timme would drop 50. He’s way too small.

Gary is a good defender. No way Timme would have his way with him.

We would have a few different guys on him - would need to keep Herb outta foul trouble (really hope he learned a lesson last game, he takes such terrible fouls when he is already in foul trouble sometimes).

Yall got me thinking bout Gonzaga when I just want to beat UCLA

Gary is a great defender but he’s only 6’6. I’m not comfortable with putting him on an All-American big man.

Someone will have to and I just trust Gary more than Bruner (health) and Rojas (just not good)

No he did not get worked. What people fell to realize is that REESE made it hard for Trendon to score. REESE blocked his shot on one occasion but they called a foul. Game film doesn't lie just go back and watch that matchup

Either way, we have enough versatility that we can matchup with them on defense.

But if we played them, the key would be hitting 3's and limiting TOs. If we are hitting 3's like we were Monday then we can beat anyone.

I trust Bruner the most. He has rested quite a bit so he should be good to go for a potential Gonzaga matchup. He is by far our best option with his size and defensive IQ.

Jays gave up, was alittle closer than it looked although Creighton couldn’t make anything.

Reeves from Oklahoma and the point guard from Creighton had their way with Timme when he was tasked to switch so that automatically tells me well they have no chance at guarding JQ on the switch. I just hope we can get by today so we still have a chance at the possible matchup in the FINAL FOUR

if bama makes it to the zags, they can beat them. but only if they shoot a high percentage from 5 feet in. the zags make those shots at a high rate. creighton missed enough of those shots to win that game. it was sad at how many they missed.

Guys I like the discussion in all on Gonzaga but I'm pretty CRUNKED up for some BAMA BASKETBALL...In the words of the great John Petty concerning any TEAM we play...


"THEY CAN GET IT"

I mean they all kind of got worked at points in that game haha - he dropped 30 I think. Herb and Reese were definitely the only 2 options at guarding him though, I just remember Reese giving up points or fouling several possessions in a row midway through the 2nd half (he was scoring on good defense in that game though).
