Rim not kind to Wildcats at Staples Center
The Arizona Wildcats weren't perfect at the line at the Staples Center tonight. Instead, they hit just fifty percent of their tosses -- 20 of 30. Too many misses.
f the Wildcats had canned all of their offerings from the charity stripe, the outcome of the Pac-10 Tournament finale would have been different. Instead, the Washington Huskies escape with the title on a last second shot by Isaiah Thomas and come away with a 77-75 overtime win.
The rim was not kind to the Wildcats tonight. Instead of nothing but net, it was clang, clang and clang. Even the long missed shots by the Huskies would somehow bounce off the rim and fall right back into their hands. As it turns out, there is a tomorrow for both teams as the Wildcats and the Huskies head for the NCAA Tournament. Let's see how the ball bounces next week. Hats off to Derrick Williams for another fine performance of 24 points and 11 rebounds. And give it up to Thomas. It was nothing but net!
