    So… the question is whether Gonzaga is that good or UCLA is overrated. Probably a little of both.

    45-25 at the half.
    Mark Few heaping praise on AN in the halftime interview.

    AN definitely playing like one of the best PGs in the country so far tonight in the 1st half.

    Won’t start another thread, but Arkie is in a 1 point game in KC against Cincy too, five minutes left.

    Arkansas had 18 offensive rebounds.
    Had a 1 point lead with a minute left, got three offensive rebounds to force Cincy into fouling, and took an charge on the other end to seal it.
    They are a tough team, but another good win for the conference,

    If you didn't see Nembhard absolutely undress that kid you need to google it.

    He literally sent the kid flying backwards with a step back.

    UCLA looked absolutely atrocious. Riding off that final 4 run into a top rank but probably a lot closer to the team that ended up in a play-in game. I do think Riley being injured hurts them a lot more than expected

    That was nasty. He dropped another defender later as well with a quick jab step. @tampajack1 was vindicated last night! Happy to see AN have a good game.

    Thanks! Looking at that clip, I was referencing the one @ 1:25 in my comment. For some reason I thought I remembered it being a jab step, but it was actually a beautifully simple right-to-left crossover. Not overly flashy, just a tight move with perfect timing. When you make the defender slowly fall to the opposite direction you know it's a good move.

    AN was dropping bodies all over the court last night, which is very hard to do. You are usually lucky to drop even one defender in a game.

    Glad to see he's doing so well. I always liked him as a Gator and didn't like seeing him leave.

    The defender actually stepped on the foot of the Zag player which made it look worse than it was/

    In basketball, stepping on someone's foot does not absolve you of any embarrassment. It still happened. ;)
