Forget what I said about Delaire. :-)

Good apology. Me, too.

At one point in the 2nd half we had a 14 point lead.  We blew that lead and had to pull a rabbit out of our hat to win.  Duck tears.

A W is a W.  Enjoy the moment. But, I’ll add, this Stanford team is pretty good.

Happy for Delaire, but you are right, he tries to do too much off the dribble. Also, it seems to me his doesn't have the same hops he had the last two years. Takes great effort just to get off the floor. But, good for him and maybe this will put a little rein on trying to do too much.

Every time Walton is on the call I just mute it and listen to music while watching the game. I was surprised to see Keefe starting in place of Reynaud but after seeing how big the Oregon post players were I realized it was just a simple matchup scenario and boy did Keefe go to work on the block tonight. He was my MVP of the game, even though Delaire hit the winning shot, because Keefe contributed to so many great defensive stops. I will say he needs to work on his rebounding. I think he finished with eight boards tonight but could have had a lot more if he would go up strong with two hands instead of trying to box out and grabbing the ball with one hand. 

Overall a great game minus the typical headache of sloppiness that always happens in the second half. Just happy to see them sustain the lead the overcome Oregon's runs. Go Card!

Keefe plays excellent positional defense and today was his best. But, honestly, my hands are stronger than his, and I'm much older. He needs that squeeze exercise thing in his pocket.

Why has Reynaud barely played?  Illness? Something else?

BC

Keefe has been playing better defense.

We just can't get Jones any open 3s.

Well, have you seen one screen set for Jones this season? Mystifying. He's a catch and shoot 3 pt shooter not an off the dribble shooter.
