UCONN in the NBA - 2023/24 Season

[jake14mw]

I heard Andre got his first minutes last night. No points, 0-1 from three but had 4 rebounds, an assist and a steal.

I don't understand the nasty.comments from random posters on Bouk. All because he left a year earlier than theu thought he should.

He's not a mentally well person. More sad than anything.

They’ve been like that since he left. They’re pathetic.

That happened back on 10/29 but the stats are correct. Bucks play tonight, wouldn't expect him to get anything more than garbage minutes, but would be happy to be wrong.

Hawk gets the start again tonight!

Man injuries are killing them. Four of their top 8-9 are out right now.

Hawk is gonna have a great career

 

[CardiacAndre7]

1-8 from 3 yikes

Herb Jones sounds like the name of an old guy who runs a peach orchard.

Jackson had the second most assists (3) on the team in six minutes.

Hawkins is having a horrid shooting night but his floor game is nice. 6 boards and 5 assists 2 steals only 1 TO in 33 minutes so far (most on team right now).

Not UConn related but the Celtics just hung 155 on the Pacers. Won by 51, 8 guys in double figures. Wow,

 

[Mike Honcho]

Hawk with 10 pts, 6 reb, 5 assists in 37 minutes tonight. Pelicans win.

Pretty much a classic Andre bucket. Ridiculous effort and timing on defense with absolutely no offensive skill present other than jumping.

 

[auror]

Andre also had 3 assists in 6 minutes. With the team struggling defensively, Bucks fans are already calling for Andre to get into the rotation.

One dribble past halfcourt with some long strides, learning from Giannis already.

They're calling for him to be a starter.

 

[Scoe]

It’s time for Andre to start.

Yeah but that's the insane ones. They have five former All-Stars in the starting lineup.

Who is the 5th? Giannis, Dame, Middleton, Lopez.

Beasley was never an all-star.

I think I double counted one of them in my head lol. Either way, Beasley is shooting 46% from 3 on the season and went 6/9 last night. They're not benching him.

Agreed on starting, maybe later/late in the season though.

They're going to have to start playing Andre more. It doesn't seem ideal having two non-shooters on the floor together with Giannis and Andre but they can make it work with all the other things they do and when Giannis takes a breather Andre could sub in. The Bucks are old and unathletic outside of Greek Freak and Andre. They need to get Andre into being a significant part of the rotation and need to get Beuchamp more scoring duties. I have serious doubts Middleton will ever get back to what he was and Connaughton doesn't really provide much of anything anymore, his role needs to be reduced.

I'm in no way criticizing him for leaving and it was probably the right choice for his career, but it really stinks knowing that Andre could be back and helping us repeat, but instead he'll be getting less than 10 MPG for the stacked Bucks probably the whole season.

Kid is living the life. Soo jealous
