First Ten Minutes:

The good:

1. Facey rebounding
2. Samuel playing

The bad:

1. UConn big men fouling
2. Refs equally bad for both teams

Lower level teams shoot the 3. Guard it. Same thing every year. No wonder we never win anything.

Amida needs to never leave his feet against teams like this. What's he doing biting on the fake of a 6'6" player?

Just a little jittery. I'm not worried about this team's ability to make shots. They are just jittery. Hamilton had perfect form on his 3, then came down, was wide open, and tilted to the side. Never set himself for a comfortable 3.

Struggles against the pick-and-roll and with zone offense. Not surprising. Gotta give Bryant some credit, they've come to play.

Well.. We better learn how to score against the zone. We're going to see a lot of it this year.

When your 3 starting guards are 3-15, and taking a majority of the shots, not a lot of good things will be the end result. I expect them to relax as the game progresses, but not a "hot" start by them for sure.

18-0 run by Bryant has to give you pause. Offense is ragged as the players haven't figured out their roles yet. Too early in the season to be worried.

Brimah's really gotta stop with the dumb fouls. I can live with fouling on shots at the rim, but he needs to stop with the grabbing on the perimeter.

They're so concerned with playing fast pace, not enough ball movement, leaking back on defense.. this is ugly ugly

This game is closer than expected. Boat has to calm us down and set things up. New team out there that is obvious. It will take time to get used to one another.

poor first half running the offense and playing defense the last 10 minutes of the half.

The good: this team looks like it is capable of being an outstanding defensive team if they want to be. There were flashes of greatness on D.

The bad: they can't shoot. Definitely concerning.
