Hopefully these boys get off the toilet tomorrow, other than the Reed monster, because the number of turds they have been dropping are stinking everything up.

Truth hurts. This type of performance will not get it done against any P4 teams or P-whatever teams. Alex came alive in the 2nd half and Ross played some solid D and Malachi held up for some, but someone else has to step up and be consistent besides Reed Jr., somebody, anybody. He was the only one that did anything against St. John's in the BET final. Without Tarris tonight, perish the thought.

I am hoping tonight was a hung over from the St John game. Never seen UConn team playing this poor defensively. It could be due to Silas being out. Mullins and Solo are defensive liabilities when they are making points. Mullins had a couple of key steals and made up for the poor shooting all night from the 3.

We need more from those 2 on Sunday. Thank God for Reed who was man among men. Karaban had a solid game but Reed was the man tonight.
 
Survive and advance with your starting PG and major rotation guy out; and another dismal shooting night (1/16 from 3 not counting Karaban). At this point I’m reaching a point k fcontentedness in that I know it’s either: we start hitting 3s and make a deep run, or we keep missing, and the basketball gods have decided it’s not our year.

Nice cherry on top for me is I had a perfect day with my bracket and got 29/32 first round games correct, all second-weekend teams still alive

What the hell was Braylon thinking launching that 3 with 10 seconds to go in the half??? Selfish? Stupid? What?

That was the dumbest play of the game. Coming out of a timeout up 7. Shot clock turned off. Braylon couldn't hit the broad side of a barn all first half. Reed couldn't be stopped. So what do they draw up? A Mullins three with 10 seconds left that leaves enough time for Furman to hit a three on the other end? I screamed so loud for 30 seconds I think I woke up the entire neighborhood. Just so stupid!

Someone needs to ask Hurley what the plan was there. Because it couldn't have been that.
 
I know the focus is on Silas but Malichi did his job tonight. He took care of the ball and operates the offense. That was all you could ask.

The real problem is Mullins and solo again being MIA. Hell we don’t need them to have a good night at this point. We need them to just get back to bad. That would be acceptable.

Mullins take a hint you made all but one of your two point shots and missed all your 3s take more twos and try to get to the line. Also please for the love of his stop with the jacked 3s. End of the half shot clock off and up 7 you don’t jack up a shot with 9 seconds left. You make sure that you have the last shot of the half so what happened doesn’t.

Solo I don’t know what to say he can’t make 3s, he struggles in the drive and missed the alley oop to Ross killing momentum. At least he is hitting his fts.

Reed lost his guy as often as Solo.

That probably is the best game by a UConn player of all time. We lose to a 15 if Tarris doesn’t put the team on his back. We could win the championship, and this performance would probably be the biggest reason it didn’t go up in flames. Thank you Tarris.

He was playing with pure joy. He smiled the whole game. I love that kid. I dont want to hear that we don't have one guy who can win us games. We've had one all season. He's just not a guard (though he still want to be)
 
Tarris went full cocaine bear so this didn't really matter too much today, but what is up with Reibe? I swear he's averaging a foul/min lately...it seems like you'd have to make a concerted effort to foul that much

No way was that the play that was supposed to be run.

I screamed too.

How many of us screamed after that play?

Negative ball IQ. Mullins has a habit of taking randomly dumb shots and it’s crazy Hurley hasn’t even corrected him on it.

It’s insane how he can simultaneously have the most mind numbing plays sandwiched between solid ones.

Totally agree. My worry with no Silas was defense but Malachi was fine for the most part. Unbelievable that our shooters continue to have these games.
