We got our mojo back, mid season slump over and done with. Win next Wednesday against Xavier and celebrate the turnaround at Andre’s Red Fox event Thursday. That’s Chief’s plan.
You are going to win most games when you have a 20% FG shooting advantage and a 2 to 1 rebounding advantage. Often the 4 out and 1 in beloved Casual Fans underestimate the value of rebounding and second shot attempts. In the first half when we built the lead, UConn had a 10 to 1 offensive rebounding advantage. We had more guys going to the both boards today and it made a difference. Gang rebounding is huge.
Maybe there’s something to Hurley bring masked up. LOL! We finally had the foul advantage. True, some of that was we went to the hoop more but was some of that psychological with the refs?
Hawkins, Newton and Diarra represented the backcourt well today. Still need to foul shooting better but defense, ball movement and FG shooting improved. I think Karaban is past his freshman slump and looking good.
After losing 5 of 6 was it really necessary to hold a rectangle object to block our draw up plays from someone’s view during timeouts? But, whatever seems to work, let’s go with it. They may know something I don’t.
Joey is pushing the ball on his 3 point shot and over shooting. He just needs to relax on his shot. He’s a good shooter.
Butter is not an overly physical team, so we need to repeat this performance against a muscle team to be 100% back. Double Big with Donovan and Adama is needed.
