Miller was smart to foul Utah at the end of OT instead of allowing the Utes to try a game-tying three …

Power-rating guru Ken Pomeroy took note of Sean Miller’s promised use of the bench …
Sean Miller has played 9 players so far. #depth

Tough luck for senior Jordin Mayes that his three-pointer before the half was waved off because it was a fraction of a second too late …
Even when Jordin Mayes makes shots he doesn't make shots.

Player of the Year candidates make those kind of clutch shots …
Twice I have yelled "no" and twice Nick Johnson has buried mid rangers.

Questionable move by Pac-12 to assign two little-used referees to call game involving league’s No. 1 team with only three weeks left in regular season …
Stigliano is the 52nd diff ref used by #Pac12 this year. Kissinger (no relation to Henry) worked only USC at Utah game earlier this season.

This is one positive way to look at Aaron Gordon fouling out …
Good news? Aaron Gordon will be well rested for Saturday.
— Cody James Martin (@CodyJamesMartin) February 20, 2014
Gordon’s solid defense on a couple of plays were mistaken for fouls by the refs …
On Aaron Gordon's fourth personal, he was obviously guilty of impeccable defense. Can't have that in PAC-12.

A shot at Gabe York by the Utah beat reporter for the Salt Lake Tribune …
Utah should be ticked at themselves that they are letting Gabe York do this to them. He's not that good

And another subtle shot at Arizona by Seth Davis of Sports Illustrated and CBS (can somebody send a telegram back East that Arizona’s two losses occurred in the last seconds without Brandon Ashley against good teams on the road) …
in order, Zona, Cuse, KU RT @crimsonblu_: who has lost more mojo? Syracuse in its last 3 games, KU in its last 3 games, or Arizona?
— Seth Davis (@SethDavisHoops) February 20, 2014
With makeshift lineups this late in season, Arizona still managed to win despite going against a Utah team that was 16-1 at home this season before the game …
Mayes, Pitts and Hollis-Jefferson all on the floor. Don't believe this has happened in the first half all season.
