Bazz

[uchusky32]

0 fgs made. Not staying in front of his man, reaching around trying to make a steal. I don't think he had one but got called for fouls at least twice. His body language was terrible. Damm! He had 8 days to rest. 0 fgs? Please!

There's no doubt in my mind that we're 1 back up point guard away from being a great team.

 

[NutmegDog]

He was worse than 0. By stepping back and rushing that three near the end he killed our best chance of getting even. His execution is bad, but players will have bad games. His decision making is unforgivable and should earn him a spot next to Enosch Wolf near the managers on the bench.

I'd say one starting point guard - aside from the horrible box, the kid almost looks like he doesn't even want to be there of late. It's not until there is an opening to make a 3 pointer down three under 30 seconds does it seem like he's actually engaged in the game.

LOL, some of you are too stupid to be in possession of a computer.

There's enough blame to go around.

Tyler and Roscoe -- 1 point and no boards in 22 minutes.
Bazz and Boat -- 0-10 from beyond the arc.
Team Boards: ND + 4 in the second half.
The Drummond and Lamb show -- try not think about next year.

Where are the clowns who were saying he's gonna leave for the NBA this year? I love Bazz and he'll be great for us next year, but man he can be frustrating to watch at times.

Olander, notwithstanding his laudable work ethic and improvement, appears to lack the athleticism required to play the 4 in the Big East.

He's had repeated and lengthy stretches where it looks as though he's running leg busters out there.

The point guard has to be an extension of the coach on the floor. Bazz, hasn't learned what it takes to be a leader on the court. Two many times Lamb and Giffey where open coming of screens and he either dribbled out the clock or picked up his dribble and had know where to go.

Not going to single out anyone here ... UCONN just needs to execute on offense better ' run their sets ... when executed properly that's when they will be successful

 

[Reno]

Guy just doesn't have it. We need to bring in someone to run the point next year.

ND had like 4 Olanders on the court. Didn't seem to hurt them.

Bazz's worst game of the season, seemed to be not engaged mentally. However, he was instrumental in winning the first ND game and has single-handedly kept it close for us in the two previous losses.

We are definitely exiled in Siberia right now, JC needs to turn it around quickly!

Its absurd to put our shi* play all on napier's shoulders. I wonder what happened to the Napier of the first ten games of the season where he tried tallying up assists. It can't be just him right? A lot of times Lamb sits in the corner and doesn't even seem interested in attacking. I'm happy with Drummond; despite the loss you saw he could really guard anybody with his quickness, and when he gets motivated he plays well.

He kept our last two losses close, but also turned over the ball enough times to negate that.

Clearly, you guys aren't watching the same game if you blame Shabazz. It was pretty obvious from the get-go UCONN was trying to get the bigs involved and have them do the scoring. There were lot of bad shots from them and eventually, the guards started pushing it. Some bad passes and ND steals really hurt us since it was a # of possessions type of game. They frustrated us with their style of play.

Our players wanted to score and score quickly, but ND made sure we hardly touched the ball. It's like the NY Giants of old playing a today's Saints kind of game, where Giants would run and pound for 4 qtrs and take up 45 min and Saints would get 15 min in possession, but the game would be close to the end. Hard to watch, but completely legal.

What the duck* were you watching.

After being off for a week and practicing Uconn defense and offense, we get the same results prior to the layoff. No movement on offense resulting in some horrendous last minute shots and no perimeter defense. We always send a man to over help of defense, which results in open shots. There continues to be poor boxing out on rebounds. We look like we did at the beginning of BB season. There appears to be no improvement or hope thereof. Unfortunately, I see a high seed at the NIT tournament.

 

[HuskyFan32]

Bazz was terrible again today. He doesn't know how to push he ball or run the offense. He maybe made one play today yet he takes so many bad shots. Can't win when your point guard plays like he does.

 

[bballgrda]

Saying that Bazz kept the Cinci and Tenn games close is nice and all. But it is basically akin to Tebow. Who gives a if you get lucky alte if you blow the rest of the game.
