TO can't be glued to his guy like that.

 

[gtcam]

Boatright's making a strong run at "worst defensive player ever to play at UConn". Off ball defense, on ball defense, he can't stay with his man.

AMEN

 

[BoatShow]

Shabazz hits nothing but net on 2 straight attempts. Where was that 10 minutes ago?

 

[Tommyboy]

Anyone want to play some d?

 

[Uconnrick]

WHERE IS OUR FREAKING DEFENSE?

 

[zls44]

Why would you ever choose to put Evans and Olander on the court at the same time?!?!?!?

 

[BoatShow]

Every so often I look up from my computer to see another layup for Hall.

 

[dtrumpet]

that seems like the first stop on defense in about a half hour

 

[zls44]

Olander just refused to dive on the court for a loose ball.

Refused.

 

[Dogbreath2U]

BS call on timeout there

 

[Rico444]

Our defense is abysmal.

 

[4UConn]

How was that a TO....WOW!

 

[Tenspro2002]

Olander just refused to dive on the court for a loose ball.

Refused.

He just kind of awkwardly flopped to the ground when he had no other choice.

 

[babysheep]

And I don't get why KO continues to leave Wolf on the bench. Has he still not proved that he is our most productive big (as sad as that is)? He's played 20+ minutes 4 times this year.

 

[Uconnrick]

Most times, you need to have posession to call timeout. Not today.

 

[BoatShow]

Hopefully Edwin broke his twig-ass ankle.

 

[Tenspro2002]

This is the look of a team that's going to stumble to another .500 BE record next year and be a bubble team at best.

 

[Palatine]

Ollie's substitute of Nolan was a disaster.

It made no sense, before the bleeding stopped it was a 16-0 run.

One question, why?

 

[Hume]

Wolf 4 rebounds, Olander 1, despite playing almost the whole half.

 

[Tucker]

What the Fuquan just happened? Everyone has cold hands from pushing the bus

 

[CTBasketball]

Ollie hates Wolf.

 

[Palatine]

We are in control , the centers are playing well, n foul trouble, Ollie sticks in Nolan -- changes the game.

Just wait til next year when we have two more Nolans.

 

[BoatShow]

Did anyone else hear the ref say "This guy called a timeout!" and point to Williard?

 

[OkaForPrez]

I count 4 Egregiously bad calls in that half. Wolf's drive that was "rejected" was forearm 4 inches beneath the ball. It's the worst non call I've ever seen. Deandre Daniels drive that was stripped was all arm. Giffey was pounded by Teague jumping into him and you can't call timeout when you are in joint possession of the basketball.

Now we squandered our lead be for many reasons including first and foremost the Phil experiment, but big east officiating is officially a joke. There is no consistency to it. And I love Kevin Ollie. I'm 11 toes in, but damn I wanted him to get T'd up against SJU (he was trying) and he should get one today.
