Can you recall a more awesome UConn putback than what we saw today? I've been struggling to think of one, and can't.

It’s hard for me to fault them. Missing by far our most dangerous player on O and playing a team that’s played several recent games where we haven’t. Jackson did a lot of good things. If he can be consistent and JB comes back soon, we are dangerous. If Akok sees the court we are even more versatile. SH also made some ridiculous shots.I'm sure he would too. Its somewhat wasted, but what that dunk did do was move Adams closer to the bench.

LOL, dude I just posted it and I corrected it like eight seconds later. I think he missed pointlessly ragging on chiefs briefs today .

It would’ve been crazy. I think the crowd would’ve helped us so much this year. Connecticut fans are just starved for our men’s team to be good again.With fans it would have been extremely loud.....
I envisioned a season of many explosive dunks with Bouk, Jackson, and Martin ... soon we will get more of this.

Lol. That’s funny. Very funny. Let’s go Andre!!!I'm sure he would too. Its somewhat wasted, but what that dunk did do was move Adams closer to the bench.
I don't think Jackson is either. In the media session after the game one of the reporters asked him about it and he didn't even crack a smile. Just described what he saw and how he went after the ball.Like I said it was nice, and I celebrated. But at the end of the day I'm just not a fan of moralvictoriesdunks.
By the end of the year and with Bouk back it seems like we've found our 8-man rotation. The most minutes should be going to:Hurley has to see the big picture with this team, and that picture is a lot of minutes and upside for Sanogo, Jackson and Gaffney. Our future, so give them the floor time and live with their mistakes.

Crawl .Walk .Run. If AJax explodes comparable to his talent in the next game or two.Who do you sit? Martin?I hope he's just saying he expects to come off the bench to be the energy guy because that's what he was today. He needs to be starting from here on out.

No argument from me.Jackson needs to be a starter from here on out and Adams needs to go to the bench.
But Adams won't be starting when Bouk returns.Jackson needs to be a starter from here on out and Adams needs to go to the bench.
Do you see JB/TM/AJ starting together with a PG and a Big? Thinking TM may have to come off the bench if IW/AS are starting.Jackson needs to be a starter from here on out and Adams needs to go to the bench.
Yes. I think Gaff, Bouknight, Jackson, Whaley, Sanogo would probably be our best lineup with Martin getting 30 minutes off the bench. I wouldn't gripe at all with Martin starting but Adams should never start again.Do you see JB/TM/AJ starting together with a PG and a Big?

Have never been a huge fan of Adams getting starter minutes.. But I'm not the HC ,if you know what I mean.Yes.

I wouldn't gripe at all with Martin starting but Adams should never start again.
You're totally right. I think he looked bigger than some fans thought he would be so they thought he should play the Martin role and or be a 4 and Hurley used him in that sort of capacity in those limited minutes but he's clearly a point forward.
If I'm not mistaken, that's his second or third impressive put-back of the year.Can you recall a more awesome UConn putback than what we saw today? I've been struggling to think of one, and can't.
There's not enough minutes to go around. Do some simple math: you've got 225-235 minutes allocated to the players you listed, and there's only 200 in a regulation game.By the end of the year and with Bouk back it seems like we've found our 8-man rotation. The most minutes should be going to:
Bouk: 35
Tyrese: 35
Sanogo: 30
Whaley: 30
Jackson: 25-30
Gaffney: 25-30
Cole: 25
Polley: 20
A shame to think where this team could be with Akok fully healthy grabbing minutes.
Stanley Robinson had a few. RIP.Can you recall a more awesome UConn putback than what we saw today? I've been struggling to think of one, and can't.
