Game Thread: UConn vs. Cincy --- #900 Tonight...

[HuskyNan]

Geno told Saniya "I didn't give you a scholarship to sit on the bench". She's showing she got the message.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Chong's shot looks much better and she doesn't seem to have as much nervous body language. Course, everything looks better when you're making shots.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Look at Chong providing the pressure. Damn, she is confident.

moriah is just a pint size blanketon defense

 

[HuskyNan]

Wasn't it Sue that said the basket looks huge when you make your first shot?

 

[HoopsFan21]

32-4 run last 12:30

 

[JellyBean]

nice pass by Nurse to Stewie

 

[HuskyNan]

Cincy kids playing hard, seem like they've been well coached, just don't have the horses to beat UConn.

 

[HoopsFan21]

47-15 half

 

[alexrgct]

Folks, I don't want to upset the mojo, but there's a pretty good chance Geno wins #900.

 

[Dove]

Gabby's touch is the bee's knees.

Is it 1955?

 

[JellyBean]

Awwwww. Coach giving Gabby some props out there. Pretty cool.

 

[EricSD]

Cincy shooting just under 18% for the game. Early on they were shooting more like 40%. Just goes to show - teams often come out against UCONN all hyped up and ready to rock and roll... then after about 5-10 minutes, the constant and intense UCONN pressure starts distracting them and causing sloppy play, 2nd guessing shots, etc etc.

Teams that are really really good can play UCONN even for 32 minutes out of a game, but it's that pair of 4-minute stretches where UCONN out scores them 10-2 that makes the difference in the final score...

"When Gabby came in, that changed the whole game"

Geno's last comment to Kerith.

 

[HuskyNan]

How many TOs for the Huskies, anyone know? Doesn't seem like there are many.

I hope so.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

4 To's for UConn.

Saniya playing well! She looks so confident tonight.

Like a new (different) player.

 

[HuskyNan]

Gabby is a game-changer. And she's still 1. getting used to being a forward and 2. a freshman! How great is this freshman class?

At least 50/50.

Just please tell if me if Stewie got a rebound yet.

 

[JoePgh]

No one seems to have noticed the most critical fact about the first half: Stewie got at least two more offensive rebounds than a dead person!

Although I see that one uncharitable poster above ruled one of them was an assist by Kia Nurse.

 

[alexrgct]

Is it 1955?

How would I know? I was -23 in 1955.

[HoopsFan21]

Stewie with a 3! 51-18
