Arizona Thoughts Anyone?

Really having a hard time with this game. I would love to play Arizona tonight but i keep coming back to the same thing. If Hill gets in foul trouble (or wise for that matter) I think Arizona is toast. And both of those gentlemen do that on a somewhat regular basis. Plus this crew hasn't exactly lit it up in the tourney the past 2 years together. Not to mention UofA is really a 3 man team and goes 7 deep at best most of the time.

What keeps drawing me in on Arizona is that they seem to have about 400 lives this year in CBB and WHEN they are good, they are VERY good. They don't defend the perimeter well which is another concern. I know they are going to put forth an effort tonight as that has not been the issue the last 1/2 of the season.

My question is does anyone have a strong feeling for UTAH and Why? I am generally one who plays my own stuff and doesn't look around too much, but there are some good minds here and I was hoping somebody may have an angle I'm not seeing. And as to why play it then? The game is the first one that jumped out at me when the card came out for some reason and as I said, Arizona keeps drawing me in....especially the more is see UTAH as a play, but without much explanation.

Thanks Mallers for any input

I dont like that Arizona has lost 5 of their last 6 games. I would be going against them if it was a really good team for sure. Im staying away from this one, GL to all players.

tough game, only going with zona because of top 10 NBA talent and the extra motivation of being labeled a bubble team

but still this game is a coin toss
