A few thoughts from the 1st two rounds

Actually, just the UConn games, because I really don't care about the others.

I had to miss the games and watch when I got home. ESPN3 or whatever they call the online deal these days has really improved. Almost no reduced resolution segments.

Yesterday, I swear JC had them practicing the last 7 or 8 minutes of the game. Kept Giffey in and they kept sending the ball to Andre near the foul line and allowing him to make a move. Not sure any of them were successful. but he looked like he's developing a decent one dribble turn and shovel shot. But at 6-10 is that really the shot he should be developing?

Today, the last couple minutes of regulation, Shabazz's play was definitely Kemba-esque.

As much as the announcers talked about the no call on Alex (which really was a gift for us) there wasn't a word about Jones giant hook on andre on the layup he missed. It was at least as egregious an offensive foul as Alex's move was a blocking foul.

Someone should tell Huggins that the DA hairstyle went out about 55 years ago.

Thank God for JC. I don't think we win yesterday with Blaney, but if we did, we definitely don't win today.

It's strange how AD, even messing around when he was younger, doesn't have a hook shot. It seems like every coach he's ever had was thinking, "What the heck do I do with this guy? Wow- that was awesome! Ah, I'll just let him play."

Shabazz was indeed Kemba-esque. He can do nothing at all for most of the game if he's gonna step up like that when the team needs him. If not for that 3 by Lamb, I'd easily say that SN was by far the best player for the huskies today.

Huggins. Bo, oh boy. Too much opossum meat.
