Inherited runner scored make that 6 runs allowed by Ross.

Ross for Less - Joe Ross has just imploded here in the 7th as Detroit has tagged him for five runs and gotten right back into this ballgame. From 8-0 to 8-5.

@franfraschilla My concern is being able to take defenders off the ball to the basket. Players his size are able to hit step backs, mid range, get to the cup etc.. All off the dribble. He’s a spot up shooter and back to the basket scorer. He’s also more like 6’8 and some change. Good luck 2 him

@DKSportsbook This is dumb. AI cannot rate or observe basketball talent and compare with peers or future peers. This is going straight off of stats in one season and possibly high school. Hopefully nobody drafts based off of AI in the future.

@obegraysr @wakeupbarstool @CoachMickCronin No offense. He won’t. Might get a little run here and there but he’s an overseas guy. Again. No offense to him. I like him.

@wakeupbarstool @CoachMickCronin to NOT say Jaden Bradley will play in the NBA is wild.

How does @CoachMickCronin see the Final Four playing out?
“Both games are really well matched. Whoever wins Michigan/Arizona will be favored in the final... ”

@ICTREH @westcoastguy123 @wakeupbarstool @CoachMickCronin Lol 1 percent ain’t gonna do much. Now do 3pt shooting percentage.
English

@AjSouthwar83368 @phoff_AZ @HateDook @wakeupbarstool @CoachMickCronin You sure about that? Arizona shoots the 3 at a higher percentage.
English

@phoff_AZ @HateDook @wakeupbarstool @CoachMickCronin Yaxel lendeborg is the best player on the court and Michigan is a better 3 point shooting team but ok

@Suns @Honeywell_Aero Such a dumb post highlighting Michigan. Two reasons. You’re IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA. The other. Your OWNER, GM, and COACH are SPARTAN ALUMNI. Jesus. I’ve been in marketing over 10 years and have never seen a mistake this ridiculous in sports.

@coolhandluka77 @budweiserusa Nah. Randy went into the HOF as a Dback. He’s a Dback.

Bill Simmons questions Cam Boozer’s ceiling in the NBA:
“I watched a lot of Duke over the last 5 weeks. His big go to move is he basically bullies you and does these little spin moves and ends up with the same little jump hook or turn around. His goal is always to get as close to the basket as possible. Which you can do in High school and even do in College. I don’t know if you can do that in the NBA as comfortably”
(Via Bill Simmons Podcast)

@barstoolsports He’s got an addiction. He’s too stubborn to get real help. Clearly whatever he’s doing.. isn’t working. Typical great athlete.

@Brian85Wilson @Underdog @UnderdogNBA He was drafted in the second round. But I agree on his impact.
English

@Bigcnc6 @Underdog @UnderdogNBA Draymond green helped change GS franchise. Lots of ways to help change a franchise. Being a very good starter for 15 years is an excellent result for any lottery pick. Most fall well short. Boozer has a very high floor IMO.

@stevemagness Might want to know who the current Arizona team is… before posting. Helps with credibility.

Arizona's was Down 7 to Purdue at halftime of the Elite Eight. Their first Final Four in 25 years slipping away.
Coach Tommy Lloyd walks to the front of the locker room and says: "Guys, the coaching staff and I are going to leave right now. You guys figure this deal out."
There wasn't some huge speech. He walked out.
Every instinct in a coaches body says to give the movie style inspirational speech. Light a fire, demand more, sound like Al Pacino in Any Given Sunday...
Lloyd did the opposite. He left 5 minutes on the clock and sent a key message to the players: This is your team. I trust you to lead it.
The veteran players took charge. They'd been through the tournament losses before, helped with emotional regulation, and reiterated that they still had a shot.
Freshman Koa Peat said afterward: "They told us to keep going. Can't get too high or too low. Just stay even-keeled."
Arizona outscored Purdue 48-26 in the second half. They had zero turnovers and shot 51.6% from the field.
Second half: Arizona outscored Purdue One.
They put on a clinic.
When asked why he did it, Lloyd said after the game:
"The most powerful thing in a team sport is a player-led program. The coach, you have to help them navigate it, but when you can get the players to own these moments, you are just so much better."
He said he'd done it four or five times this year and it worked every time.
There's a mountain of science behind Lloyd's approach
In 2003, researchers Mageau and Vallerand found autonomy-supportive coaching, giving athletes choice, acknowledging their perspective, and avoiding overt control, consistently produced more motivated, more resilient athletes.
Controlling coaching did the reverse: higher burnout and lower resilience.
This is at the heart of one of the most theories in psychology, Self-Determination Theory
When people feel autonomy, competence, and relatedness, you get the highest quality motivation.
When a coach trusts his team to figure it out and right the ship, he's handing them all three at once. It's the ultimate signal of trust when his team needed it the most.
Lloyd built a culture where the players internalized the stuff that matters.
A 2025 meta-analysis by Clare and colleagues looked at 50 studies and over 17,000 athletes.
They found that team captains had nearly twice the effect on performance as coaches did.
Coaches help set the culture and expectations. They guide good leaders, but the players look to who else is in the arena with them.
We need peer pressure in the positive direction.
Lloyd understood this. Too often, as coaches we think we need to "do something." That instinct pushes us to over control, to grip the wheel harder.
When so often, what we need to do is trust that we've guided them the best we can, and show them the trust they deserve.
Steve Kerr once did something similar with the Warriors, telling his team that he was sitting out and they were coaching the team for a game.
Build the culture. Coach the team up, giving them the skills and ability.
And then sometimes, you've just got to step back, tell them you believe in them, that it's there team.
That ownership and self-belief is the fuel of the purest motivation.
Sometimes, when we're struggling, we don't need all the answers. We just need to hear that we've already got the inside of us. And to give us that belief to go get it done...together.
-Steve

@duke5021 @ActionNetworkHQ You know I’ve changed my mind. 7 seconds left. Boozer still choked. Can’t pick up your dribble. He did have 2 open teammates down court but you throw it immediately or dribble away from the trap.
English

@duke5021 @ActionNetworkHQ Dude what? They inbounded the ball with 10 seconds. Boozer had the ball with under 6 seconds left. Just major choke job by Boozer.

@trumanation_ Tapped his hat within seconds and that’s not fast enough? Some managers need to lay off the juice.
