It's a little bit weird to write a preview for the same team twice in a row. Frankly, not much has changed aside from the importance of the game. Lorenzo Romar has said that the team is focused on this one and not looking ahead to ASU (though at the moment, Stanford is beating them), and that this is a must win for the Dawgs tourney chances. He's right, of course.
It will be interesting to see how Quincy Pondexter performs. He says he doesn't hold a grudge and that he's not real upset about losing out on POY, but when you hear him speak and get to know his character, you get the feeling that he feels differently than he says he does. How's this for a grudge: after not being named a McDonalds All-American in high school, he went from eating McDonalds every day to going 3 years without eating it. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Quincy playing with a bit of a chip on his shoulder. Though he is nursing a mild illness, so keep an eye on that: Coach may have to limit his minutes.
Aside from that it's the same stuff as Saturday: 1-3-1 zone, diagonal passes, push the tempo, IT dribble penetration, MBALive, etc.

and I bet the = sign makes the link not work correctly, so just copy and paste it into your address bar.
This is just a rumor at this point, nothing official
But there is buzz that both Terrence Jones and Terrence Ross are going to commit to UW.
Obviously, I’ll be watching this closely and if/when anything becomes official I’ll be on top of it as soon as I stop celebrating and regain consciousness.
We need to get the ball inside.
Too many 3’s , also not enough Q.
I really have no idea what he expected to happen
With Gaddy, Suggs, Turner, Gant and MBA on the floor.
None of those guys can create their own shot/
If Gaddy can develop an outside shot
It would really go a long way. They can sit back and cut his drives off
Yea, I've seen it
He needs to actually use it. I’d be telling him to put it up. Make the defense respect it at least
then they mug MBA and nothing...
I have to think Larry Scott knows that the Pac-10 officals reputation preceeds them.
Looked like he fell on his own
Unless it was a trip which is a point of emphasis, but I didn’t see it
excuse me
would anybody like this ball?
oh you would? here.
Pondexter needs touches!
Even if it’s only to just pass it again, he should have his hands on the ball more.
FINALLY MBA
This is the same conference
That calls this “The Pacific Life Pac-10 Tournament presented by Pacific Life”
I can't decide what's more frustrating.
Our offense not getting off their ground or their desperation shots all going in. OSU might as well just have someone hold the ball at the 3 point line and launch it once the shot clock gets under 5.
Have we won a game yet where we were down by 10 or more?
I can’t remember us making any come back wins this year :(
You guys are making it sound like we're terrible...
The only difference is that they’ve made 3 more 3-pointers in 2 less attempts.
22 points in 20 mintues is terrible for this team
we’re not shooting well and we can’t break their zone at all
I can't even believe that sequence
First, he shoved a guy down, then he clanked a damn dunk

You'd think they'd want to fix it so the conference gets more than one bid
Or did Obama call one in?

Trip
Point of emphasis. You can fall over and they’ll always call it this year

Apparently
10 minutes of Washington basketball is equivalent to 30 minutes of Oregon State basketball and 30 minutes of horrible reffing.
I guess if they keep playing the rest of the half, we should be fine.
Note to Craig Robinson
don’t let your freshman shoot desparate threes in the biggest game of the year. I don’t care if he made 2 in the first 5 mintues.
Have you seen his offense?
There’s nothing there

OSU really doesn't have much to choose from.
Their offense is THAT terrible.
MBA should never D anyone up beyond the 3 point line....
What the hell are you doing MBA!
Next stop Stanford!
Let’s hope this game got their tournament jitters out of the way. Stanford is going to kill us if we have a first half like we had tonight.
gaddy
Hopefully gaddy can bounce back tomorrow
