[QUOTE="RichZ, post: 2518416, member: 534"] Been preoccupied the last week or two, and haven't had the patience to make notes and write up a Game thoughts entry for the last couple games. Then yesterday, I only caught bits and pieces of the game and had to wait for the replay to be posted to go over it. Anyway, here's a few thoughts. [LIST=1] [*]The flagrant on Griffin was marginal. I love that Williams went right into the ensuing melee. [*]KO did not spend the entire game with that awful crying look on his face. A few times it looked like it was starting to come out, but he ended up going with a kind of quizzical, "What the hell was that all about?" look. [*]JA really got pumped with that assist at the end of the half. Haven't seen him jumping and trying to charge the crowd up like that in a while. [*]If Fall gets the ball with his hands more than about 18 inches from the basket, the odds of something bad and or clumsy/awkward happening are much greater than the chances of him scoring. He literally cannot advance the ball toward the hoop if he has to move his feet. I'm not sure I saw him dribble the ball even one bounce. [*]Vital opening the 2nd half with a steal and layin followed by a three took whatever wind Dawkins had blown into their sails in the locker room right out of them. [*]When did it stop being a travel when a man on the floor with posession slides across the floor for 5 or 6 feet? [*]When driving or making a spin move, UCF players all seem to lead with their off hand. Or their elbow. They could and should be called for a lot more fouls because of it. For the whole team to do it (with the exception of Fall, who just doesn't make those moves) suggests to me that Dawkins coaches it. [*]Whalley's offensive board on a late in the clock attempt with 3 and change to go, giving UConn the oopportunity to burn another 20 plus seconds before AA hit a little baseline jumper was a back breaker for UCF. [*]We are now 6 and 0 when leading at the half. [*]We didn't shoot well at all. But Ollie coached well. Well enough to beat Dawkins anyway. His gameplan was better and his in-game adjustments were better. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
