Napier doesn't look healthy or he might just be sluggish

That was a very ugly first half of basketball from both teams. It would also be f'in awesome if Omar could hit a shot.

 

[huskyharry]

Solid first half but poor perimeter shooting...need to keep driving to the hoop in the 2nd half

 

[uconnsouth]

Solid first half.. their top 3 players haven't played well but neither have ours

He should really step in a bit...better to start making some two point shots and get back the confidence

 

[superjohn]

Omar isn't even close on his outside shots.

 

[Danzz]

Probably our best defensive effort this year.

 

[champs99and04]

It seems like Omar has really struggled with his shot against the bigger and faster opponents we've played.

Ticket $$ ain't the issue tonight. There's about 6-8 inches on the ground so far where I live.

Yeah they sold tickets the weather is horrific and timed terribly for this game. Was supposed to start snowing at 9. Started at 1. And is coming down like crazy now.

And its televised on ESPN, easy decision.

 

[SaeHusky]

Napier - bulls eye!

 

[huskyharry]

Everyone has to box out!

 

[huskyharry]

Omar hits a two

 

[huskyharry]

Bazz for three!...up twelve

 

[huskyharry]

Bad call on block foul called on TO

This worries me. With a guard heavy team we really need to be able to shoot well to win games. Our three guards have struggled making FGs against teams with comparable talent.

 

[huskyharry]

Didn't stop the ball, layup for gaddy...up 8
Then boat makes a drive up ten
Good D forces a travel

 

[huskyharry]

Great drive and pop from DD

 

[huskyharry]

Alley oop Bazz to Omar

Yup...I was driving home from the Christmas Holiday when it started. Went to Stop & Shop around 5:30, which is only a mile away from my house and I cleared a few inches off my SUV. When I came out of the market about 10 minutes, there was another inch or so to clear. 2 cars in the ditch on the way home. I'll be dammed if I go out before morning...

 

[huskyharry]

Great hustle by Wolf....followed by moving screen

Then good hustle for offensive reb but then throws it out too hard

 

[zls44]

Washington is a terrible offensive team, but this is also a very good defensive performance.

 

[huskyharry]

DD fumbles a tough outlet from Boat then is out of position and fouls UW player on fastbreak

 

[zls44]

UConn making the extra pass a lot tonight, really good.

 

[huskyharry]

Great block by Nolan
Then DD drained a three

 

[whaler11]

And its televised on ESPN, easy decision.

I was going to go - if you live in rural Eastern Connecticut you understand how it just isn't possible sometimes. Had it been at noon or 1 could have snuck in and out.

 

[huskyharry]

Good pass by Giffey inside to Nolan who,doesn't finish but will be on the line and 4th foul on Gaddy

 

[huskyharry]

DD slips...up 8 with 10 to go

 

[huskyharry]

UW picking our D apart last two trips

 

[huskyharry]

Bad charge called on Bazz
Defender not set
Then UW playing volleyball on offense
Now down to 4 pt lead with 8 to go
