Tyger and Jaquez were both terrible in this one. Juzang killed it but also made a dumb play fouling Jones on a three. Can we get a point guard who can shoot?
UCLA played within their means. There isn’t a star player on the team. That means that any night is an opportunity for any player like juzang to have his one night. The problem with this is that there is never a go to guy to take over.
The bigs both completely disappeared and Stanford absolutely destroyed UCLA in the paint. That’s how Stanford won.
I’m actually not disappointed because I love watching this team as compared with the old guy in charge. There is always a chance to win.
I’m also not disappointed because I know UCLA is never winning a championship with this team. Defensive efficiency is so bad and they will get bounced in the tourney. You need a star on the team and UCLA just doesn’t have one. I have to hope that future years will bring a star because without one there really isn’t any hope of winning a natty again. Go bruins, play hard, keep rebuilding and hope that next year brings a player that can win a natty... until then, who cares
This game reminded me of the last years of Howland but without any star players. The last play of the game was inexcusable. You l we learn what to do defense wise on the .8 inbounds in 3rd grade. That was a joke.
UCLA has a competitive set of 4 games in a row. They could win all 4 or lose all four. I actually expect they’ll go 2-2 over the next four games. If they start flat against any of these teams it will be very hard to recover
Let’s give Coach Mick Cronin credit for not blaming every failure of the season on the loss of Chris Smith. It may not seem like a huge loss because of Chris Smith’s offensive inconsistency early on, but it was and it is. When you lose your returning leading scorer, you lose your whole season’s game plan. Still a fun team to watch every game because of the hustle and effort on both sides of the ball.

More Jaylen Clark, please.

None of our "bigs" showed up, a few extra points would have made a world of difference

Why was a defender not looking for the final play and ready to resist it? He seemed to just be standing around!
