12-13 Kick-off: UConn vs. AIC Game Thread

[hooskies]

You can't accept the truth. The kid is raw. When you can't out-muscle a D2 athlete and make a dump layup your so raw.

do us all a favor and get back to your social studies homework..

Thanks for the link. After reading the last page of this thread first I clicked the link and was expecting to see UConn down 20.

There was no muscle involved, he just missed a wide open layup, they'll drop in time

Nolan is about as raw as it comes.

Somewhere out there, Hasheem Thatbeet has just burst a neck vesicle laughing his ass off at your comment.

I love how the people on this board are so closed-minded to other's comments.

i like how olander is playing, has improved every year

 

[Palatine]

Way too many back doors for AIC.

Defense has been atrocious.

Haha. Tool. It's going to be a long year on here.

if you're referring to your comment about nolan being raw, it didn't apply to that sequence of him missing layups and still getting the rebounds

I know it's early, and I'm very cynical, but I'm afraid to say that Daniels is never going to be very good. If after 1 year at UConn he can't make an impact against AIC, then I'm pretty sure you can wrap that and put a bow on it. Too bad. Seems like a really hard worker.

Nice block by Leon.

i think he'll be better than roscoe offensively... defensively we'll have to see

Score?

First post of the BBALL season:

Positives so far:

1. Omar Comin'. Utility belt scorer, quick release, tough kid, confident.
2. Boats got the swagger
3. Olander found some confidence. Love him holding the ball in the post, surveying the defense. Has had several strong passes, strong moves to the cup. We'll see if he can score vs. bigger opponents, but the passing/poise should be a staple of his game. Very exciting to see his maturity. Could be a team leader.

Negatives so far:

1. We have absolutely no rim protection, at all, period. I have never seen uncontested layups like we've seen on these backdoors. None of our Bigs have the athleticism to get there from the weakside. That's very bad.

2. Shabazz gotta pick it up.

still waiting for this press and run

 

[uconNYC]

Olander looks like his brother did against us last year

 

[aceboon]

Love the way the offense is operating through Olander, we'll have to see how it holds up against real comp but he showed flashes of it last year with his passing ability. I trust that he's going to make the right decision with the ball.

 

[RayRay19]

calhoun and TO playing well together

 

[CTBasketball]

I'd like to see how they come out next exhibition game. The first one is always tough (kinda).

 

[aceboon]

I hope this is Bazz getting the rust off..

64-47 UConn
