Zona' vs. Bears.

[Zona_Soccer10]

Seven hours and counting until tipoff.
BEAR DOWN ONE LAST TIME FOR LUTE.

[chandlerAZcat]

Nothin' like an early start.

GO CATS!

[azcat49]

OK Zona Soccor 10 you better come through for us as a thread starter.

[Merkin]

OK Zona Soccor 10 you better come through for us as a thread starter.

He started the Ducks and Beavers threads, and hasn't started one since.

[CalStateTempe]

What time is game time PST?
7:30?

[Merkin]

What time is game time PST?
7:30?

Yes. Don't forget next week starts PDT.

[Zona_Soccer10]

He started the Ducks and Beavers threads, and hasn't started one since.

Is that a bad thing?

[Merkin]

Is that a bad thing?

Being that the Cats won both games, it is a great thing you are starting this thread. GWH is banished until next year from starting threads.

[Zona_Soccer10]

I'll do my best to stay undefeated for you guys.

[UAGreg]

Let's go WILDCATS!

[ghostwhitehorse]

Being that the Cats won both games, it is a great thing you are starting this thread. GWH is banished until next year from starting threads.

Hey!. . .in every single loss it was the damn refs. . .they just hate me. :mad:





:p

[CBCat]

Been waiting for this game since right after the last one ended.
Bear Down. Cannot wait.

[azcat49]

Understand Montgomery is going to talk at halftime, classy

[CatintheHeat]

Understand Montgomery is going to talk at halftime, classy

Monty and Lute always had mutual respect.

[Zona_Soccer10]

I always thought Montgomery was a class act. But I hated him when we played his Stanford teams. :lol2:
Almost game time BROTHAS.
BEAR DOWN.
Hopefully Chase comes out rolling.

[PieceOfMeat]

hurry up and lose assu.
i want to see our game

[NETSFAN4HASSAN]

Bear Down


Cal makes their 3s, when they take them. That worries me. They were scorching hot when we played them last time (they loved the Claw)....but we are a much better team now. If we can play solid defense, I like our chances. Our guys are just a different team at home. McKale has been rocking!

[chandlerAZcat]

hurry up and lose assu.
i want to see our game

And they did by 10!

[ghostwhitehorse]

Bear down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CBCat]

Have we started.

[CBCat]

So this is national right?

[PieceOfMeat]

yay we dont miss any of the game.

and horne starting? interesting

[ghostwhitehorse]

Horne starting. . . ?!?

[Zona_Soccer10]

Nice exchange from Lute and Russ.

[PieceOfMeat]

[CBCat]

Russ with the Lute uni.

[ghostwhitehorse]

Hug!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Horne and Hill off to a good start.

[PieceOfMeat]

[Zona_Soccer10]

And a three to open things up.
Bleh.

[ghostwhitehorse]

erg. . .

[Zona_Soccer10]

Come on Cats!

[PieceOfMeat]

nice board from hill. fogg finished that layup as good as wise usually does ;)

[Merkin]

Fogg with the Wise shot

[Zona_Soccer10]

So far a game of offensive boards.
Not a good sign if your an Arizona faithful.

[Zona_Soccer10]

Funk Masta Nicky Nic!

[PieceOfMeat]

crowd is nice and loud. nic there we go, hit more threeees!

[chandlerAZcat]

Yea Nic! 3

[CBCat]

Both teams playing for a lot tonight

[ghostwhitehorse]

Nic!

[PieceOfMeat]

is it just me or did chase magically move 4 feet horizontally through the air?

[PieceOfMeat]

horne, stop shooting 3.s

[CBCat]

Fogg has got to shoot.

[PieceOfMeat]

stfu sherlock, someone ban that clown already

[Zona_Soccer10]

Damn....
Horne good rebound.

[PieceOfMeat]

cbud has started cold, here's hoping he warms up

[PieceOfMeat]

gah, wanted tha ttip from horne to go in.

hey chase, nice job taking the charge

[Zona_Soccer10]

A healthy Hill drills those.
Nice draw Chase.

[ghostwhitehorse]

C-bud takes the charge!

[NETSFAN4HASSAN]

Jerome Randle, looks like he is 40. Wow. Oh, and can someone please put a hand in his damn face! Thanks.

[chandlerAZcat]

Had a call from the game saying they were makin' all their 3's as they were warming up..

[Zona_Soccer10]

King of THE HILL!!!

[PieceOfMeat]

wow, surprised that went in for hill, tough shot.

[PieceOfMeat]

ohhh nic is feelin it from 3.... :)

[Zona_Soccer10]

Wise!!

[chandlerAZcat]

Nic....3!

[ghostwhitehorse]

Nic for 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PieceOfMeat]

wow the open looks sure are there if the opposing tream is willing to pass it a bit

[CBCat]

Chase went around him no?

[PieceOfMeat]

wow, chase makes a great move, and gets called for a b.s. charge
that guy is shuffling in and leaning as chase is in the air!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Oh FUDGE.

[Coop Cat]

Russ with the Lute uni.

Seems that all the coaches except Geary are wearing the "lute uni". He must not have gotten that memo.

[Zona_Soccer10]

You know what I hate more than bad officials?
Announcers who suck up to them. Lol.

[PieceOfMeat]

daaang horne, there ya go, board!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Besides that shot.. I'm loving Horne right now.

[PieceOfMeat]

come on wise, fininsh a layup

[Zona_Soccer10]

Hill again.

[PieceOfMeat]

wow hill

[PieceOfMeat]

and there's a foul on wise on the reach in. would love to see the opposite angle replay on that

[Zona_Soccer10]

Not a good foul right there.
Enter BLav.

[chandlerAZcat]

Man, I hope the fans stay on their feet and keep it LOUD!

[ghostwhitehorse]

Blav in.

[PieceOfMeat]

lol nobody was there for hill to outlet the ball to.

[Lute4God]

wow, chase makes a great move, and gets called for a b.s. charge
that guy is shuffling in and leaning as chase is in the air!

All true and all BS - typical pac10 ref stealing the limelight

[Merkin]

didn't the refs get the memo that the home team gets the close calls?

horne having a great game.

[Zona_Soccer10]

Nice effort Horne.
Hit your FTs Bruh.

[PieceOfMeat]

lets hope horne can make some throws
*crosses fingers*

[PieceOfMeat]

whew both throws fall!

nicely done horne

[CBCat]

Horne bank it

[Zona_Soccer10]

Nice applause to Horne.
Well earned.

[PieceOfMeat]

well randle sure isn't afraid to launch from nba range

[CatintheHeat]

Horne looks like he's ready to play. Really good game so far.

[CBCat]

Lav is really speeding Cal up.
Like his energy.
Like the subbing.

[ghostwhitehorse]

Have to say. . .Randle is sorta = Curley Neal.

[Merkin]

Props to BLav and Horne, really playing well.

[Zona_Soccer10]

Brase. Haha.

[PieceOfMeat]

i <3 made free throws

[Just a Fan]

That's the David Hall crew that ref'd to UCLA game at McKale, the same ones you guys thought were so good. But I warned you about them.

Looks like they're doing an okay job though.

[PieceOfMeat]

excellllent pass hill!

horne can dunk :)

[CBCat]

Since when did we get that Verizon thing on the court.
Horrible
I guess if it brings money

[Zona_Soccer10]

Oh Horne. Beautiful set up by Hill.

[ghostwhitehorse]

Hill can pass.

[CatintheHeat]

What a pass by Hill! Outstanding

[PieceOfMeat]

complete lapse on D there :(

[Merkin]

glad to see Pennell is substituting freely.

[CatintheHeat]

Horne! Wow!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Oh HORNE!!! AMAZING!

[PieceOfMeat]

and another nice pass(NIC!) to horne who dunks.

horne can dunk all night and I'll be happy!

[ghostwhitehorse]

Horne is getting his shwerv on . . .

[PieceOfMeat]

hill was shoved int he back on that reboudn attempt i think.

[CBCat]

glad to see Pennell is substituting freely.

Yep
and timely

[Merkin]

Horne with his first dumb play, not bad after 10 minutes.

[Just a Fan]

Wow, for a non athletic sucky player (your words) Horne is playing pretty high above the rim. Oops, foul

[CatintheHeat]

And then Horne makes a stupid foul

[CBCat]

Did we add in plays for Horne?

[PieceOfMeat]

excellent give from hill there, and chase rewards it by nailing the three!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Budinger!
Hill with the PASSING.

[CatintheHeat]

Hill the complete player

[PieceOfMeat]

and there's wise's second foul.

[CBCat]

Bud needs to get his.
It's LUTE OLSON night

[ghostwhitehorse]

Another assist for Hill.

[Merkin]

great to see chase smiling, always a good sign

[PieceOfMeat]

sigh, wise called for a second reach in...and then

oh look, our D gives up another wide open three

[Lute4God]

Cats on O a thing of beauty all around: passing cutting screening driving and taking advantage again and again for easy scores.

[PieceOfMeat]

good job hill, now make the throws big man

[Just a Fan]

Just said Budinger wants to come out and watch the half time ceremony.
What an inspiration that would be, moreso than any half time game plan or adjustments.

[PieceOfMeat]

at least hill made one of them.

[PieceOfMeat]

hill is a mother f*ckin beast :)

[PieceOfMeat]

oh look, our D gives up another wide open three

[Merkin]

that randle guy is pretty good

[PieceOfMeat]

hill is just shootin it from all over the court tonight

[Zona_Soccer10]

Horne has been key on the boards.

[PieceOfMeat]

that randle guy is pretty good

good enough to cover all the time from 3?....nahhhhhh

[CatintheHeat]

Time to take BLav out of the game. Really bad decision. 1 on 3.

[CBCat]

Uh oh Blav not sure his role quite yet but giving it his all

[Coop Cat]

Time to take BLav out of the game. Really bad decision. 1 on 3.

Can he please just stay in the corner and hide or pass the ball really quickly when on the offensive end of the floor.

[PieceOfMeat]

wise back in with his 2 fouls. danger zone

[PieceOfMeat]

killin us out of the timeout

[Zona_Soccer10]

Hill is going to be on the WHEATIES box someday.

[CBCat]

Wish Fogg would drive now and again

[PieceOfMeat]

oh look, our D gives up another wide open three........

[CatintheHeat]

Wide open 3 given up

[Zona_Soccer10]

Nice work Chase.

[PieceOfMeat]

nice job chase, and you finished. now make the +1 please

[CBCat]

Nice aggressive move Chase

[ghostwhitehorse]

Dang . . Chase!

[PieceOfMeat]

<3 made free throws

[Zona_Soccer10]

Nice hustle Horne.

[PieceOfMeat]

there ya go fogg!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Foggy!

[CatintheHeat]

Good shot by Fogg

[ghostwhitehorse]

Fogg!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Horne BEASTIN' the boards.

[CBCat]

Keep doing that Fogg
they slack off of him all the time

[PieceOfMeat]

oh wise, take half a step in fella!

and horne with foul #2.

[Zona_Soccer10]

Calm down you bench *****es.
The two handled it like men.. not thugs.

[PieceOfMeat]

ajac in, double bigs.
oh look, our D gives up another wide open three

[Zona_Soccer10]

Come ON.... another one??

[ghostwhitehorse]

*sigh*

[Merkin]

Fogg doing a Horne. :rolleyes:

[PieceOfMeat]

fckin come on cats.

fogg misses a three, then fouls?...sigh

[CBCat]

Let's end strong not putter out at the end of the half.
Come on!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Any team that plays Arizona will be aware of our stength come tourny time...
BUT.
Salavate at the thought of our three point defense.

[Just a Fan]

Man, the defense on the threes, lots of great 3 point shooting teams out there.....
Fogg, looks like a frosh last couple games.

[CBCat]

Too bad LLP isn't here to back up Nic.
Oh, Yeah, we're way past that.
Just saying

[PieceOfMeat]

and cal is in the bonus, and lucky for us they miss the throw yay :)

and ajac with a board!

[PieceOfMeat]

ajac with a steal!

and nic with a nifty move and actually makes a layup?!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Oh... WISE.
Call him the Texas Blur.

[CBCat]

Shifty crafty Nic

[ghostwhitehorse]

Nic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PieceOfMeat]

rebound!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Oh CHASE!!!

[PieceOfMeat]

chase nailing it as the clock winds down...from a pass off nic...

that was freakin beautiful

[CBCat]

love those Chase 3's

[PieceOfMeat]

good foul there hill. make them earn it

[ghostwhitehorse]

Boooooooooooooooooom!

[CatintheHeat]

Nic Wise has really made much better decisions in the home stretch.

[Just a Fan]

Two unforced errors in a row from Cal, your guys need to take advantage of their Frosh.
Gutierrez

[Zona_Soccer10]

Love the student section outfits.
I befriended a few of them when I competed at a halftime show in McKale.
Best moment of my life perhaps.

[CBCat]

re: this tribute to Lute...
I'm feeling old all of a sudden
Sophmore Lute's first year.
ouch

[PieceOfMeat]

please cats finish the half strong.

[PieceOfMeat]

wise turns it over and then commits one of the stupidest 3rd fouls you'll ever see.

[Just a Fan]

Ouch , close to intentional and 3 on Wise.

[ghostwhitehorse]

Feh.

[Merkin]

NIc playing like a freshman.

[PieceOfMeat]

we go empty on O, and then

oh look, our D gives up another wide open three

[scumdevils86]

not good

[Merkin]

F**K, way to blow an 11 point lead.

[CBCat]

Chase make the bunnies

[Coop Cat]

chase, hill, aj, zane, y blav is the most random lineup

[PieceOfMeat]

and just like that we're only up 5.

sigh, sigh, sigh, sigh.

we gotta freakin respond with a bucket here

[Zona_Soccer10]

So wow.
Arizona just doubled this guys season shooting.

[CatintheHeat]

NIc playing like a freshman.

Yes. I spoke too soon. That last foul by Wise (for his 3rd foul) was just dumb.

[scumdevils86]

f*ck

[PieceOfMeat]

wow, they call the foul away from the ball.

[CBCat]

Free points

[PieceOfMeat]

whew, at least chase makes both throws.

can we please not give up a 3 now.

[Lute4God]

yea that last 3 was created by Zane. He goes to double the corner and doesnt really try to deny the pass back to the wing.

[Just a Fan]

Man, what fun to play against your defense if you are a three point shooter. If only.......

[CBCat]

thanks for all the awesome memories Lute.

[CatintheHeat]

Man, what fun to play against your defense if you are a three point shooter. If only.......

Yep, Arizona has given up the most 3's in the conference.

[Zona_Soccer10]

OH Lord.....

[PieceOfMeat]

and on our last D posession...

oh look, our D gives up three

[CBCat]

Hey we guarded that three

[scumdevils86]

i called that 3 a long time ago.

[PieceOfMeat]

out of a timeout, this D gets shredded. pretty consistently too.

well, we're up by 4. gotta play a whole lot better in 2nd half. time to go watch the tribute

[CBCat]

Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute

[ghostwhitehorse]

*sigh* Adjustments will be made. . . :o

[CBCat]

tears man

[ghostwhitehorse]

tears man

Same here.


But they should have got Harvey Mason to handle this.

[CBCat]

Is that Bennett Davidson?

[CBCat]

Wow
Lute is tore up, emotional

[ghostwhitehorse]

Cal doesn't stand a chance after this. *crosses fingers*

[CBCat]

One of the greatest no doubt

[ghostwhitehorse]

Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeveeeeeeeeeeeee Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!

[willubearcat]

Damn I'm feeling old, Brock Brunkhorst was in my freshman english class.

[CBCat]

It was a great rivalry

[CBCat]

Damn I'm feeling old, Brock Brunkhorst was in my freshman english class.

Exactly

[ghostwhitehorse]

All this needs is a few words from the Wizard.

[CBCat]

These guys better win.
Damn

[willubearcat]

Jud is one of my all time faves.

[ghostwhitehorse]

Jud in the house. . .with highlights?

[shazzamcat]

I don't know if it's a bad thing that i can't watch the tribute.... (checking in from India).

[ghostwhitehorse]

Bear f***ing DOWN!

[Merkin]

I remember seeing Pete Williams walking around campus.

Jud looked great.

[Merkin]

All this needs is a few words from the Wizard.

I don't think he is well enough to travel. A video tribute would have been nice.

Did any of the current players see the tribute?

[Just a Fan]

Have to say I much preferred seeing him on the sidelines, stomping his feet, yelling at the refs, yelling at your players, heck even yelling at our players. The dang, cracked me up.
Makes us all feel older, sadder and a little less for not having him still coaching.

Whether you played for him or against him.

[CBCat]

I remember seeing Pete Williams walking around campus.

Jud looked great.

Pete Williams
Undersized juco center. All heart and work ethic.
The heart and soul of Lute's first two teams.

[PieceOfMeat]

Seeing Lute walking on the court....

That's something that just looks "right", if ya know what I mean.

Half time really wasn't enough time to do him justice, I plan on being at the august ceremony!

[Zona_Soccer10]

Amazing to think Lute was five years into the Arizona legacy when I was born.
I tried to be a man about the tribute... but I couldn't.

[PieceOfMeat]

Lets gooooooooo CATS

stomp cal in this half

[Zona_Soccer10]

Not a way to come out.

[PieceOfMeat]

wow, horrible D and O to start the half and it's tied.

come on CATS!

[ghostwhitehorse]

fug. . .

[CBCat]

Cats and Chase need to show a little more emotion out there

[PieceOfMeat]

wow, not good. horne cant make thta lil shot, and then fogg with a reach in foul

[scumdevils86]

wow are we really going to lose this game after that halftime?

[Coop Cat]

Fogg is getting some cheapies tonight

[PieceOfMeat]

so wise was bumped an no foul call... hrm...

[Merkin]

what an ugly start for arizona.

[PieceOfMeat]

we give up an open three missed, then give up the board, and then we foul

[Zona_Soccer10]

This is going to be a LONG half.

[PieceOfMeat]

what an ugly start for arizona.

we better wake the f*ck up.

[PieceOfMeat]

ok hill, heat on up :)

[Just a Fan]

No offense guys, but as often as that out of control drive by Nic works, it also fails.

Reminds me a lot of a Freshman kid playing that I know.

But Hill is a beast, plain and simple.

[scumdevils86]

ughhhh

[PieceOfMeat]

nice pass to chase there. but that shot was woefully short

[Zona_Soccer10]

Ouch that's a Horne three right there.

[Coop Cat]

Chase is credited with "0" rebounds right now. How is this possible?

[Zona_Soccer10]

Horne!!!
BEASTIN'.

[UAGreg]

Jamelle playing well tonight

[PieceOfMeat]

horne..dont shoot the thr.....oh nevermind, it went in!

[ghostwhitehorse]

Horne!

[PieceOfMeat]

rebound!
finally fogg does and is fouled

[Merkin]

cal missing some wide open shots, monty can't be pleased.

[willubearcat]

horne..dont shoot the thr.....oh nevermind, it went in!

BS, nobody types that fast! :lol2:

[UAGreg]

Jamelle has come to play tonight. If we win and he continues to play well, tomorrow the Jamelle Horne is great threads will start.

[Zona_Soccer10]

In perspective.. CAL should be up. But they haven't been able to finish the gimmes just as we haven't.
This game is going down to the wire... and I certainy HATE those games.
I had chills watching the game from 94' so go figure.

[PieceOfMeat]

cal missing some wide open shots, monty can't be pleased.

we're getting lucky that's for sure, hopefully we keep being lucky

BS, nobody types that fast! :lol2:

it was an accurate transcription of the thoughts as they went through my head, but not real time lol ;)
