Georgetown very bad. UConn very good

I hope that last 2 minutes doesn't impact any metrics. I think Kenpom accounts for games being statistically over, but the NET does take MOV into account

 

[HeGotGame]

Nice to play maybe your B game and blow someone out.

 

[elmcityboy]

our ball movement and shooting made this a fun game to watch, not to mention the and-1 hawkins jam!!

tough day for the "diggins is our best option to break the press" crowd, though...

Horrible back door cover

Pathetic officiating

Great game for the Huskies

Nice to see confidence building in hawk and Polley. Polley at times need to play within his limits.

Thank goodness sanogo had this game today and not Tuesday

Cole is so smooth

 

[OkaForPrez]

Andre the giant 14:1 ato last two games.

KenPom does not account for statistically over. Haslametrics and Evan Miya's BPR do, though.

But a 20 point win vs. a 9 point win against a team this bad wouldn't make much difference. Maybe 1 rank spot, if that.

Which makes him a great backup guard. Or even starting point guard

Slow start to the game and not full intensity to start the second half, the rest of the game was pretty great outside of the last 2 minutes.

Cole was super smooth, Hawkins and Polley were both really aggressive driving. Everyone was looking for the open man with some really nice interior passing and some great cuts for scores. Super efficient game from Jackson. Not Sanogo's day, he simply can't pick up these silly early fouls going forward.

Ewing is a putz for pressing when Hurley put in all the subs. UConn could've called their score today and showed mercy. Danny will remember that but Ewing is gone anyways.

 

[aburks41]

Polley driving to the hoop is such a nice development in his game. Might help keep the defense more honest on him if he can blow by them when they play him that close on the perimeter

 

[Palatine]

Take the win. Hope Whaley and Hawkins heal up. Move on.

The high hedge will cost us a game in the near future if we keep letting Sanogo get useless early fouls

 

[HuskyWarrior611]

Vegas made sure we didn’t cover. All there is to say about that last 2 minutes.

Best our offense has looked all season otherwise.

 

[DFW HOYA]

When your playmaking guard has one assist in 37 minutes, that alone tells you the story of the 2021-22 Georgetown Hoyas.

He’s primarily getting it in transition so be careful thinking he can get it in the half court off of screen action. He’s still our best low post inbounder and he now looks super comfortable in top gear on the break. It also helps that we’re running shooters to elbow for early offense of misses. I bet 1/3rd of those dimes were that two underhanded scoop pass to the trailing shooter.

 

[shizzle787]

Played well for the middle 30 minutes. The first five and last five not so much.

 

[3rdbass]

He can play off of Cole running the offense. He isnt a starting PG with those skills. I will give you Point Forward. He will have to really work on his shot and being able to run an offense to be a PG. He is still almost 1:1 Assist to TO for the year. 2 games don't make a season.

 

[3rdbass]

I loved seeing Hawkins just going hard to the basket especially the ones coming off screens. He very athletic and can score when going to the basket. I hope he becomes more consistent on his 3 point shot. Glad he knew he didn't have to just be a jump shooter today.

Not to nitpick too much, but he makes a lot of bad plays that don’t show up on his stat line but should. Like the pass to Sanogo on the break today. That TO was 100% on AJ. No way he is a PG, people need to stop.

Ewing is a putz for pressing when Hurley put in all the subs. UConn could've called their score today and showed mercy. Danny will remember that but Ewing is gone anyways.

Thinking the same thing. This is what the Michigan/Wisconsin fight stemmed from. Unwritten rule: We've decided not to beat you any worse than we have so we're putting our subs in and you back off. And there will be those in disagreement that say play hard to the end. I get that too.

Not giving him the TO for that horrible pass to Sanogo though?

I kid (kind of). I love love love Jackson.

 

[tzznandrew]

Whether or not Cole comes back, Jackson is going to be the primary playmaker next year. Cole is best as an off guard regardless.

Hawkins play today made me feel really good about next year. Jackson-Sanogo-Hawkins is a fantastic trio even if Cole-Martin decide to move on.

Both Polley and Hawkins went to hoop. Had to be by conscious design. It’s smart.

Take the win. Hope Whaley and Hawkins heal up. Move on.

Or and I’m just spitballing here, maybe Adama can hedge without fouling.

 

[Brochacho]

It was a loser move by Ewing but if you're 0-whatever in conference play why wouldn't you.
