I really thought this game was nuts. So many runs back and forth, gutsy.

Each team could only score in 10s until the last few minutes.

Boogie bungles it again

He is a losing player

This wasn’t quite Duke beating Michigan State but it was a great win nonetheless. Mr. Smith really saved the day. Silas needs to figure it out sooner than later.

Malachi…. 9 assists and 0 turnovers.

 

[Boost'ED]

Sneaky good move by Hurley to put Ross on Lee.

Lee had a much quieter 2nd half. Ross slowed down Lee's dribble drives.

I thought Stewart would be more of a factor the 2nd half.

too much dribbling around the perimeter, not enough attacking.

Things happen when malachi is on the floor because he actually drives.

Demary is good, but he's thinking too much.

That 7-0 run with the Karaban block & corkscrew 3 at the other end won the game. Gave us a lead to nurse down the stretch. Great game between two heavyweights. Another big win for the ol' resume.

Hurley has to start Mullin next game. It's time. The kid is ready.

Plus, Silas has been slacking offensively, and I think the kid can give our SL a spark.

@temery wore it better with the OP.

Awesome win, just a gutsy performance all around against a physical and experienced team. They’ll have a lot to take away and learn on end of game, along with the offensive glass. Great to be able to nitpick after a big win

 

[blkknight1]

Malachi has been the mvp in all the big games this year the stats don't say it but if you have watched those games when he has played he has made a huge impact. Hurley learned his lesson from the AZ game keep that man on the floor in crunch time and good things happen

 

[Dibbie]

Not sure what to say, we’re either flawed or only seen our C+ team, yet we’re a possession away from being undefeated during the toughest stretch in UConn history. Gotta be a good thing moving forward

Can someone please make a gif of Lee calling iso then air balling by like 3 feet, only because he thought he had Karaban’s number off one weak step back earlier in the game? Career game for the kid and they still lose, tough….

Rolled my eyes when I saw that. Guy finally has a decent game and all of a sudden thinks he’s Leensanity.

 

[BFieldHusky]

Gutty win.

4 Quad 1A wins on the resume. All away from home.

I have no idea why Dan Hurley took out Malachi after his euro step to go up 8. I assumed it was for a quick 30 second rest until the under 4 timeout but then he stayed out. Luckily it didn't matter

 

[aboogieee]

Malachi Smith. Point God.

Ross was unplayable in the first half. Definitely had some nice defensive possessions in the second half but was a total deer in the headlights on offense. I don’t even blame him for that last turnover. There is no world in which Ross should be catching that inbound pass.

 

[Mets1432]

Malachi is a DOG. Great 2nd half by him. Karaban with a key 3 and stop on Lee late in the game.

Only negative was we gave up way to many offensive rebounds and to many run outs. Reed still doesn't look 100%.

 

[upstater]

Malachi is that dude!!!!

Might as well just go ahead and start Mullins if he can’t stay on the floor for more than 2 minutes at a time.

This is the first time in a while I felt we were physically dominated. FL is huge and knows how to use their size. Could also tell Tarris’ legs weren’t fully there.

Our guards struggled to drive and kick, being lulled too deep into the paint in the first half.

Another masterclass half time adjustment by the staff on Lee & Haugh.

That was an all out war. What an amazing game to watch.

Mullins seems to get the fouls they never call on other teams. Cheap stuff. For instance, Lee pushes Solo Ball in the back on a late shot that rolled out (floater). If that were Mullins, the foul gets called.

This is huge

Mali’s world baby. I don’t care if he starts, he needs 20+ a game

UConn, Arizona, and Michigan. I'd take those three against the field right now. And barring injuries, I expect those three and some imposter to be in the FF.

 

[uconngb]

Good win for sure

Bad trend w Silas..,,,he’s getting worse by the game

 

[3rdbass]

We do not win this game without Malachi Smith, he is a DOG

He has been a better PG so far this season. Just glad we have 2 this year compared o .5 wtih an injuired Diarra last year.
