I was surprised Gonzaga played as well as they did and will be interesting to see how they fair in the second half. I f you take Wiltjer of their team they don't look to have a lot of fire power. Kyle looked awfully smooth the first half and really happy for him. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186362 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged catmandoo Player Member # 1284 posted 12-13-2014 11:40 PM                     Wiltzer still playing great with 22 points. He has made 3-5 from the 3 point line, 9-13 from the field, 4 rebounds an 1 t/o. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186362 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged catmandoo Player Member # 1284 posted 12-13-2014 11:48 PM                     Gonzaga leading 71-63 with 4 1/2 minutes in the game. They are having little problems with UCLA in their house so far. It really looks like we are going to be playing the worst team of this match-up. It sure looks like we should beat them easy but there is no doubt they have some 3 point shooters as they are 9-17 from the 3 point line so far. I think our defense is far superior to Gonzaga's however. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186362 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged catmandoo Player Member # 1284 posted 12-13-2014 11:51 PM                     The stat that stands out is that so far in the game Gonzaga has shot but 3 free throws in the entire game in contrast to UCLA's 16. Looks like some home cooking. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186362 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged m hamilton Player Member # 127 posted 12-14-2014 06:26 AM                     UCLA shoots a high number of free throws. They are also one of the nations leaders in made free throws as well! -------------------- The potus is planning 1st major tax hike since '93 in next economic package!

They also are not even close to being a leader in free throw shooting percentages. In fact they rank below us and we are way down the list ranking 234th out of 350 teams. UCLA ranks 307th. I also checked Louisville our next opponent after UCLA and they are flat out terrible free throw shooters ranking 335th out of the 350 division 1 teams making only 59% of their free throws. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186362 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged catmandoo Player Member # 1284 posted 12-14-2014 10:37 AM                     What I can't figure out is why can't Louisville UCLA and especially us who have the best coachs in the country and the best recruits in the country can't shoot free throws better than we do. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186362 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged m hamilton Player Member # 127 posted 12-14-2014 02:00 PM                     It's all about practice, CMD. We as teams would rather practice fancy dunks, amazing three point shots, or even half court shots. Free throws are just time consuming and unspectacular! -------------------- The potus is planning 1st major tax hike since '93 in next economic package!

They have one thing in mind and that is getting their teams better and fancy dunks are not part of making their team better. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186362 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged m hamilton Player Member # 127 posted 12-14-2014 04:10 PM                     When you are limited to practice time you don't waste a lot of it practicing free throws. You expect your "boys" to practice them on their own! -------------------- The potus is planning 1st major tax hike since '93 in next economic package!

Free throws do require a lot of time and they do practice them on their free time but without good technique it doesn't do a lot of good. Hopefully the assistant coachs are helping each player in individual workouts on how they can correct any flaws. When you have 233 Div. 1 teams shooting them better than you there is a problem especially when your team has so many Mickey D's on it. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186362 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged m hamilton Player Member # 127 posted 12-14-2014 06:02 PM                     Maybe waste of time is the wrong term but something the boys can work on by themselves! -------------------- The potus is planning 1st major tax hike since '93 in next economic package!
