The Cats come up short against Colorado in the Tournament Finale, 53-51

It's okay Sean Miller, I'm screaming my head off too... Actually it's not okay. You know why? It's cause the Cats were given a golden opportunity to win the Pac 12 Tournament. The only problem with the opportunity was that it was Colorado gold. The Cats would go up against a team that was playing four games in four nights, a team that they had routed before, a team that was new to the Pac 12, etc. Those should help Arizona win, right? Wrong. The Buffaloes had a solid game plan against the Cats and their leaders stepped up when the Cat's leaders did not step up. The Cats were in a position to win the game, though as they played airtight defense for the last several minutes, but their offense would not take advantage. Down by two with the final possession, the Cats would opt to go for the kill, but the trey was no good. Arizona will not be able to return to March since they've wasted the many opportunities they had this year.

Cats take advantage of Oregon St., continue in the Pac-12 torney with win 72-61

The Cats were extremely fortunate as they were matched up against Oregon State. The Beavs pulled off a remarkable first round Pac 12 tourney upset by taking down the top seeded Huskies 86-84, but their run would be short lived. The Cats would initially have a 34-27 halftime deficit to work with, but they opened the second half hot on defense and offense. The Cats would pull away with the help of Foggy's 22 points. This will send Arizona into the conference tournament finale, against either Cal or Colorado.

Cats top the Bruins in the Pac-12 Tournament, 66-58

This is what I think of Ucla Basketball

The Cats went into the Staple Center at the start of the Pac 12 tourney as underdogs, since they were playing in the same arena that has served as the Bruin's den for most of the season. However, the Bruins were in for a rude awakening as the Wildcats came into the game and attacked all night long. The Cats went in and out, driving the lane and shooting the trey as Solomon Hill scored 25 points. UCLA would collect a total of 24 fouls with Joshua Smith and Travis Wear fouling out. The Cats will now wait to play either Washington or Oregon State.

Cats lose a crucial game to the rival Sun Devils, 87-80

Just look at the crowd in this picture. Take a good, long look. Now tell me, aren't there quite a few red shirts mixed into the yellow in the crowd. Yes. And those red shirts are the faithful Arizona Wildcats fans that made the trip up to Phoenix, only to see the Cats lose to their arch rival. Now after the game, ask any of the Arizona fans, who paid their hard earned money to ASU only to see the Cats lose, what they think are the Cats chances of earning an at-large bid in the NCAA Tournament. Slim. This is how important this game was. It was a chance to finish on a high note and let the committee decide. Instead it was an ugly loss, the kind of loss that costs you your season. As a Cats fan, I'm saying that ASU stuck a pitchfork into our hope for going to the NCAA Tournament and I do not think that this team deserves to play in the Big Dance.

Coyotes end February with an 12 game point streak, beat the Canucks, 2-1 SO

The Coyotes have a knack for making February runs. This year is no different. The Phoenix Coyotes avenged their lone loss (in OT) against the Vancouver Canucks by returning the favor on Tuesday night. The Canucks would show they were one of the NHL's best by jumping out to an early lead in the first period. However, the Coyotes would show they were one of the NHL's hottest by tying the game late. The game would then go to OT and then to a SO, where the Coyotes would win off of a Mikkel Boedker goal past Cory Schneider. This caps off one of the greatest months of hockey for a team as Phoenix earned 23 of the 24 possible points in February.

Jeremy Evans wins a boring dunk contest

I really thought that Derrick Williams should have won this. Instead, it was the last-minute Iman Shumpert sub in Jeremy Evans who won the dunk-contest. I thought that it would've come down to Paul George from the Pacers and Derrick Williams from the T'Wolves, since Budinger is just a tall white boy with hops and Shumpert was a bit too short, however, I did like the Diddy hop and Linsane hop idea. Anyways, I posted my first video to show you what went down in Orlando on Saturday night. I hope you enjoy.

Cats top the Bruins on Senior Day, 65-63

This picture shows why Arizona is better than UCLA: Nike vs. Adidas

The Cats could ill-afford another loss in the regular season. They showed off their unconventional grey unis on CBS as they played a close game against UCLA in a red-out Mckale Center. It was a rugged game that did not have many outstanding offensive performances as both teams went hard to the rack. Joshua Smith, one of UCLA's big men continued committing fouls, which kept him off of the court. Arizona was then able to take adavantage of the size match-up and the two-starting seniors, Kyle Fogg and Jesse Perry combined for a good inside and outside threat on offense. Foggy would hit a key 3-pointer to put the Cats up by three late in the game, a lead they would not let up.
