No, Gonzaga didn't fix any of it's defensive weaknesses towards the three point shot but they gutted out a 83-81 victory over Western Kentucky in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. You can thank Demetri Goodson for that, who made the go ahead basket with .9 seconds to go.
But now the Zags are in their first Sweet Sixteen since 2006, and will face up against UNC. A couple of thoughts come to mind.
- I hate to beat a dead horse but when is Mark Few going to learn how to rotate his defense to defend the three?
- Are we going to see Josh Heytvelt shine against Tyler Hansbrough like he did two years ago?
- Pargo has been playing better, is this raising his NBA stock?
- Matt Bouldin is a good player on the stat sheet but it seems as if he disappears in big games against tough competition. His points against WKU were pull up threes, can Bouldin score against the Tarheels?
The Zags are proving me wrong. They're making a run in the tournament.
