I just don't understand it. This is three straight years with absolutely no discernable ability to run a half-court offense.

Lamb forcing shots and soft play inside by UCONN. Good hands and strong hands are not a strong point of this team. They can't run anything offensively and getting behind every game and then having to fight back over and over drains a team and without depth we can't keep doing this.

This team is starting to push me to the point where I consider them to be hard to like. By this I mean that we always root for them, but some teams give you a reason to really like them while others are just difficult to like because they seem not to care.

Other than Drummond I'd offer anybody 20 bucks to tell me something to like about this team.

Agree, that 2005-06 team was more likable.

No, WhereistheDove right, the half-court offense was terrible last year. It just so happened UConn had Kemba, who ended up taking over in late shot clock situations. It also helped that Lamb emerged late last year. Bazz ain't Kemba and Lamb has regressed now that team's defenses are keying in on him. This is the result.

Calhoun has yet to instill this team with his toughness. Drummond really needs to stop smiling after he duck___ up.

So?!?!?!
So, it was a comment that we have not seen a legitimate half court offense in three years... I'm not downplaying a national championship, just pointing out that it wasn't won with one, just an amazing player who drove us to win despite that.

You guys are killing me with the negativity. They aren't nearly as bad as the doomsday, end of the world posts I'm seeing.

Shabazz has learned from Kemba with that step back fade away shot. It usually doesn't drop when he's dribbling for 20s though.

Your making my comment out to have a completely different meaning than what I actually wrote. You're taking it as an affront to last year's team. What I actually wrote is that I don't understand how we can not have one for three straight years.
