Message: [QUOTE="Kemba Time, post: 5135977, member: 2962"] This is a tough tough place to play when things aren't going your way and Mahaney has taken so much early that he deserves some love for showing up in a big way last night. When things were unraveling early, that sequence of a fastbreak assist to Ross for a dunk followed by back-to-back 3-pointers changed the entire night, and he hit another big 3 later. As Hurley said, The Phoenix who was so quickly buried by many of us rose from the ashes in a way that may have saved our season. Still a ways to go, but this was our first real glimpse at the player Hurley wanted so badly in the portal and after the game Aidan said "I feel like this is what I signed up for. My biggest thing right now is carrying this momentum forward" and doubled down that this is why he chose UConn and feels like this is the place for him. It's coming, and this kid is going to be a big part of it when UConn proves a lot of people wrong from here out. [/QUOTE]
