Message: [QUOTE="cohenzone, post: 4807522, member: 504"] This game didn’t bother me at all. It’s hoops and especially between 2 good teams, every game is different As hostile as any environment they will play in all year. Down early, come back. Newton and Spencer will shoot better from the stripe most games. Newton won’t be so crazy but other guys will shoot better. Newton proves every night how great it is to have good 3-4 year vets on a team. But also no Castle who really needs action against teams that will test him. Hopefully as the season goes on, the other frosh besides Ball will give Hurley the confidence to play them. Aside from not winning, that loss means zero so long as they can take care of business most nights. ETA: if Newton isn’t an NBA player, it’s only because of the evolution of the game. UConn once had a point guard about the same size as Newton drafted (inexplicably) in the first round. His name was Tate George and he wasn’t a third the talent of Newton [/QUOTE]
