Nevada Game Thread

[Sluconn Husky]

Need to just pretend this game didn't happen although I doubt Geno will let them forget.

Nevada really hanging in there. You gotta love it.

I would rather see us play well and win by 60

 

[TitleTown]

A lot of teachable moments in this game. Best thing that could have happened to UConn IMHO. They have to really figure out how to attack a m2m defense with a sagging off-side.

Nevada has 17 assists on their 20 made baskets. UConn 22 assists on 31 made baskets.

Ya know, in all sports, fans of lesser teams watch surprising scores like this and pray and pray for an upset. Most likely not going to happen tonight, but UConn's no different: upsets happen, and a lot of people watching the score on ESPN are praying and praying. (Mods: this is not intended as a religious discussion ).

Collier is really logging the minutes. I haven’t checked the stats lately but I doubt she’s been out for more than a few minutes over the last three games. I think she’s played every minute tonight.

They aren’t machines. Bound to be a “clunker” once in awhile. Remember Tulane?

Kia for 3!!!! 77-53 4:42 4th

Just let Kia shoot and everything will be OK

How many teams would think that a 25 point lead amounts to failure? The unique world of the Huskies.

 

[Kaizen]

Good news,
Kia 7-7 3 pts ... the only thing good ..

 

[nwhoopfan]

A lot of whining about the refs for a game UConn is winning by 25. I've seen some bad calls go against Nevada too.

 

[BostonCanuck]

Good, let's finish strong!

 

[JordyG]

Not much meg tonight.

To be fair the starters are playing almost all of the minutes and with 3-4 fouls. There's a reason for that and that is because they would lose this game if the starters were on the bench.

 

[Ozimoto]

True ‘dat.

 

[Kaizen]

Z double-double, 15 pts, 12 rebs

 

[HoopsFan21]

Kia for 3!!! 83-55 3:02 4th

 

[oldude]

2 more 3’s to match Lou

 

[BostonCanuck]

Nurse! 8 for 8 from downtown!

 

[HoopsFan21]

Bent in for Kia, so no 10/10 tonight

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Lou squirming on the bench?

 

[Kaizen]

Just look Kia number 8-8 3 pts

As I sit here, I am noticing I am "sagging off side"

Nuts.
