Friday's game live on youtube

[RockyMTblue2]

I don’t think we are going to see the game live today

Wrong:

 

[MilfordHusky]

Selected 2-game stats:

Liya 20.5 ppg/9.5 rpg

Azzi 28.5 ppg

KK 13.5 ppg/6.5 rpg/6.0 apg

Aubs 12.5 ppg/6.0 rpg

Which of those are sustainable and which are not?

This is probably bad form, but I'm going to answer my own question:

I think Liya will be close, maybe 18-19 and 9.

As great a shooter as Azzi is and as much as I love her (remember she's a local kid for me), she won't average 28 ppg when Paige is back. But I can see the Fuddster getting close to 20 ppg.

KK's stats are ridiculously impressive. If she averages 8/4/4, I'm very happy. She looks like a recruiting coup!

Aubrey's 12.5 and 6.0 is exactly what she will average for the season. Or very close, I think.

Of the times the video feed was decent was just hoping the person shooting this game could have moved the cam just a bit to right to also show the Guests score.

Me does think that Geno is getting an eye full of KK as are any of our opponents who are doing there best to scout the team's games in Europe. I think the pair of Nika and KK, both going full blast for the minutes they are in the game, will shut down any Guard we come across even those not on our regular season schedule, such as Iowa (CC) and LSU (Hailey Van Lith). Kinda like the "40 minutes of hell" which Arkansas used to label itself a few years back, I'd give Nika 4-5 minutes a Qtr, same with KK with Ines picking up a couple of minutes here and there. If you were the opponent, how would you like those three all being fresh and rotating as your defender?

 

[Rowdy831]

Caitlin will get Nika "in her face" and then get an uber-energetic KK doing the same. That duo is sure to wear most players out.

No defender on any team can shut down Caitlin Clark alone. Last year she was head and shoulders above any other player in the country and every team they played knew all they had to do was shut her down. The good news I don't think Iowa outside of CC can score enough to stay with UCONN so it shouldn't matter.

 

[Rowdy831]

Can you imagine the starting five of Liyah, Nika, Ice, Azzi and Paige, after about five minutes of them playing in your face defense. Then Geno subs them out for KK, Ines, CD, Aubrey and Ayanna for another 5 minutes of heck. Can't wait for the regular season to start.

The big Three for UCONN will not be subbing out at 5 minutes of any game.

Watching today's game was like going to the Gustav Klimt museum

Did you see the UConn v. Iowa game and read Caitlyn's comments?

 

[Rowdy831]

They are looking good and they are looking deep at all positions. Realizing the level of competition is so low that might be a little misleading and once the real season starts there might be a different reality for the younger players.

As much as Geno is playing his young players right now I think that will change once the season starts and he will go back to his 7-8 girl rotation unless circumstances force him to do otherwise. I do expect UCONN to win the NC this year but that will fall directly on the shoulders of Paige, Azzi and Aaliyah.

For at least the start of the season, I would suspect that your starting five will be Aliyah, Azzi, Paige, Aubrey and Nika.

It was a nightmare to watch, happy for those who could

Great KK highlights - I really love the very last play, she steps back but passes up a potentially very good 3-point attempt to throw a nice over the top pass to Edwards for the easy lay up. Geno had to love that

Does anybody have the final score of the game? Is there a box score anywhere?

LJUBLJANA, Slovenia – The UConn women's basketball team took in the second country of the 2023 Foreign Tour over the last two days.

UConn first arrived in Bled, Slovenia, on Thursday. After taking in the lake views and enjoying lunch with Slovenian cuisine, part of the group went on Europe's longest zipline, with over 4 kilometers of zipline going across a protected sanctuary. Over seven lines, the Huskies took in views of the Julian Alps and the Sava Dolinka River.

Game two came on Friday evening with the Huskies taking on Akson Ilirija. Senior Aaliyah Edwards paced the Huskies with 24 points and nine rebounds as UConn won, 98-68. Junior Azzi Fudd continued her hot scoring as she notched 19 vs. Ilirija.

UConn's freshmen have showed few growing pains on the court in Europe. KK Arnold was impressive Friday, notching 17 points, six rebounds and six assists.

Is there a box score yet?

Is there a box score yet?

There is an "Unofficial Stats" link at the beginning of the article referenced above (at uconnhuskies.com).

It's sort of hard to read; it looks like someone took a picture of a stat sheet that had been rolled up at one point. But for now it's better than nothing.

Aubrey with 14/6/3/2/2 on 4-4 shooting. Typical game for her.

She was +23 for the game, tied with Azzi for 2nd best and behind only KK's +26.

Evidently you did not watch the UConn - Iowa game. Clark went 9-24 and 2-11 from 3, begged the team to help get that #10 off of her during a timeout.

Poor reception, no scoreboard camera jumps. I had to turn it off.

This sounds about right.

I'm interested to see how the UConn+ channel edits this game. Between the constant freezing, sound drop-outs and half hour late start, I'm not sure tomorrow's replay will be much better. Unless, somehow, they can upload an entirely different file of this game taken from a different camera.

A lot of the video trouble was due to uploading a live event. The jiggling camera will still be there but the game should be OK.
