News and notes as No. 5 Arizona prepares for Thursday's late-night game against Washington.
Bruce Pascoe Because Washington still runs a unique and sometimes troublesome 2-3 zone defense that Huskies coach Mike Hopkins brought over from Syracuse, Arizona coach Tommy Lloyd is applying a certain philosophy to the Huskies' Thursday visit to McKale Center.
"It’s unfortunate," guard Cole Bajema said afterward, according to the Seattle times."Obviously, we didn’t shoot well. You’re not going to beat a lot of teams shooting 2 for 25 from 3." Also, Washington opponents turn the ball over on 19.6% of possessions, but that only ranks 131st nationally in defensive turnover percentage.
The Huskies are facing the possibility of a 1-5 start in Pac-12 play if they lose to both UA and ASU this week. Hopkins said he tried to keep things in perspective with his players after the UCLA game. "I've felt good about our guys — after the UCLA game, they would have every reason to come out flat and dejected," WSU coach Kyle Smith said Tuesday on his weekly media conference."They didn't and they haven't this year.
Considering the ball movement required of even post players in the UA offense, that might be pretty noteworthy, the way Lloyd talked about it Monday. But there's also those stats kept behind the scenes.
