Are we talking kosher dill, half-sour, bread & butter, spicy hot, or the classic sweet gherkins?

Nice to get that first Big East Win right out of the gate. Strange game, though somewhere typical for this squad, where they look spectacular during some stretches, but horrible at other times where it's like watching two completely different teams. Hopefully they'll clean things up and play...

Haven't thought about this in a very long time, but does anyone remember how JC would call a time out less than a minute into the game when his team would come out low energy flat? Hurley, as great a coach he is in his own right, should watch a little JC tape and take a page out of his book...

I'm saying in a situation where you have numbers but not a good path to the basket, you dribble towards the defender who needs to decide if he's going to cover the person with the ball or the player who flared out to the wing. Once a Defender commits to the ball handler the teammate that flared...

Huge payday for whatever program accepts the invitation and it's prestigious to come to NY and play there. And UConn fans fill the seats, putting money in the owner's pockets. It's not going to stop any time soon.

Something that I observed over the years and particularly this year with the current UConn team, when on a semi 3 on 2 (correction: this would be in a 4 on 3 or 5 on 4 situation where there is too much traffic to attack the basket) break where they're looking for some early offense, when they...

Although it's fun to see our program near or at the top of the polls, I'm really not all that concerned. Keep on winning to build as good a metrics as possible that the committee uses to seed teams is what I care about. Winning out our nonconference schedule and taking care of conference...

Great point. Being in his final season, it's unlikely there will be any tweeting to his shot. He has NBA range, which can be used to his advantage when he's got space and it's not early in the shot clock, but I'd like to see him shoot it more often from just beyond the 3 Pt arc. Hopefully he...

There was the Scott Burrell full court pass and "The Shot" by Tate George. Then there was the full court Rosco Smith "What the Sh#*t!?!?" heave.

Props to KU for their switching defense. Bigger props to the UConn staff and players for figuring out how to beat it. And the biggest props for UConn's D, arguably their best defense half so far this season.

KU has a 6-9 235 player named Bidunga. So when he dunks the ball, do they call it the Bidungadunk? For those who listen to country music, this reminds me of the Trace Adkins song, Honky Tonk Badonkadonk. For those who never heard this song, check it out. You're welcome!

They had some good moments. They seem out of sorts and most of our snipers are simply slumping. They also need to finish around the rim more often. Hopefully they come around. The FT shooting is a tad concerning. Can't shoot like that in a tight competitive or win-or-go-home game and expect...

Undermanned, great effort, but going 9-18 from the line and out-rebounded by 20 and somehow were up with less than 2 minutes to go. That game was there for the taking.

Wow! 24 pages in this thread. This is longer than The Book of Mormon.

Real time, I thought he took a bunch of extra steps. I replayed it and wondered how the refs didn't catch that. It was pretty obvious. Then again, they didn't seem to see any of the off arm push-offs throughout most of that second half. With that said, the Huskies played really tight in that...
