Daye has been much improved over the last month. 17 Points per, 8.8 Boards per, and 2.7 Blocks per. Nice clip for a Sophomore. Either way, he needs at least another season at Gonzaga to add some more muscle to his wafer thin frame.
Team Comparison: Zags/Toreros
Points: 64/47
assist to turnover ratio: 0.62/0.69
Rebounds: 39/22
Shooting Percentage: 42%/33%
3pt Percentage: 36%/36%
Notes from the sideline:
-Sloppy! The Zags looked ugly out there, lots of turnovers, not enough people distributing the ball. Lots of bad jumpers and threes.
-Pargo looked better, but still nowhere near the level i expect out of a supposed 1st round NBA prospect.
-Heytvelt looks like hes lost. At times he shows that passion and energy that made him so good a couple seasons back, but really its only in bursts.
What it means for the future (Analysis):
I think we are in a holding pattern. I hope for the Zags sake this is just the team building and growing and trying to improve. But seriously its starting to look like the Zags are another 1 and done team. Sure we dominate the WCC, but seriously we need to make much deeper runs come march. I might be nitpicking, but i guess im just a little frustrated watching a team with this much talent look that lost on the court. God help us vs. Memphis on saturday.
