Game thread Stanford - UConn

[huskeynut]

40 - 38 UCONN at the half.

Time to regroup.

 

[sawxfan23]

KML and Jefferson have done absolutely nothing yet.

 

[sarals24]

Thank god for Nurse and Chong. And Stewie.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Kiah and KML need to step up. Come on guys, you're seniors. This is your last go around.

 

[easttexastrash]

We need to hit some outside jump shots to open up the paint a little bit. KML needs to step up she hs been invisible so far.

KML doesn't seem fast enough to lose her defender. UCONN has to get her some screens.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Missed the whole first half. Came back to discover a game!! Whoppee...

Out your big girl pants on Huskies!

 

[sawxfan23]

Yeah, bad calls by the refs are rattling the younger players. They need leadership from the veterans.

Nurse was the 2nd best player on the court besides Stewart!

 

[pap49cba]

Only 4 assts on 13 hoops. Very un-UConn like.

 

[Dawson]

Ewwww so much negativity in this thread. The game is 40 minutes guys, chill out.

 

[Replicant]

No worries!

Alright uconn.. Im up! We got this girlllsss!

Oh, Stef, where are you when we need you?

 

[Sluconn Husky]

KML getting beat repeatedly off the dribble by Samuelson. And people were offended at the notion that she'd have trouble defending guards.

If Stokes, KML, and Jefferson show up for the second half, UConn will win. Otherwise....

 

[pap49cba]

Stanford shooting 47% overall, 57% from 3.

 

[Plumber Luigi]

There is going to be a lot of tape to go over tomorrow.

 

[vtcwbuff]

Story of the half - KML zero offense and much worse - zero defense. Feet of stone?

 

[CCinCT]

Stanford playing really well - the refs are not - I guess that's what you get when June Corteau is named NCAA’s national coordinator of women’s basketball officiating.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

No worries!

Hey, don't deprive us. We have such few opportunities!

 

[pap49cba]

Who are the officials? Any familiar faces?

This team is young. I heard in an interview that Dolson said Geno was going to have his hands full with a younger team than he has had in a while. Consequently, I don't expect to win all the games this year. I do expect to see the team grow and will enjoy the process. It's nice to see younger players grow and the team grow too.

 

[rocky rococo]

I've seen repeated mistakes on defense, opening up lanes making it easy for Stanford to get to the rim. Multiple players making the same mistakes, repeatedly.

They're going with 7 players, two seniors, two juniors, one player in essence a junior (Tuck), one sophomore, and one frosh. I wouldn't call that a young team and the players struggling the most are in the upper classes.

Four assists on 13 hoops for UConn; out-rebounded 23-17; Stokes with 0 rebounds; Bet it's a fun locker room right now

Yup. From Chong and Nurse. Don't worry, they'll learn

 

[sarals24]

Stewie isn't really struggling. She's had two big and-ones, and drawn a ton of fouls.

Young in a leadership role. Let's face it, Hartley and Dolson were the best of the best as team leaders!
