The team is not playing with urgency this half. Just satisfied to go through the paces.

On the other hand Syracuse has scored 3 points in 5:30.

 

[bruinbball]

This sideline/announcer is just not any good. How many names has she said incorrectly?

 

[VAMike23]

Kiah + Bre in the middle

 

[choochoo]

That was arguably the ugliest 4 minutes of bball I have seen since watching Rutgers play.

 

[ASweet3781]

Another UConn player not ready for a pass results in turnover.

Dolson who has been throwing her body around for a while has predictably picked up her 3rd.

now Faris not paying attention to a pass. this is getting absurd.

 

[Icebear]

Officials have decided they screwed up in the first half when they forgot their whistles in the locker room.

 

[VAMike23]

What did Bonita call there?

 

[ghostmutt]

Bria made the nice dish to Dolson because she was fully engaged and playing at speed (her speed, which is faster than most) after hitting a shot.

When Bria isn't scoring, she goes through the motions and is just a warm body out there. When she's making buckets, she dictates the pace of the game on offense and defense.

I wish we could put a little of Kelly's all-around hustle in Bria, and little of Bria's clutch-shooting ability in Kelly.

Bre Stewart has been the best player on the court for UConn tonight.

And now another experience UConn player, Stokes, gets schooled and the foul.

 

[VAMike23]

Kiah needs to do a better job defending the penetrator there

 

[Samanthabrown3]

This team isn't beating ND. I hope the other Huskies show up tomorrow.

 

[ASweet3781]

Its just gotten absurd at this point with the turnovers. Speaks very poorly to this team.

 

[Icebear]

Syracuse heating up and it is gonna get tough now. Lead down to 11.

 

[VAMike23]

Geno getting "animated" in the timeout ....

 

[Icebear]

This team isn't beating ND. I hope the other Huskies show up tomorrow.

First half team would have. I wish they hadn't taken the bus back to Storrs already.

 

[ASweet3781]

Syracuse heating up and it is gonna get tough now. Lead down to 11.

UConn may be very fortunate that Syracuse ended up missing something like 5-6 free throws to start the half.

This has been a very disturbing 8 minutes of basketball out of UConn.

 

[VAMike23]

Kiah good play, bad call

 

[Icebear]

Looked by a good block by Stokes.

 

[Shenandoah]

terrible call on Kiah...

 

[ghostmutt]

This team struggles mightily to make the entry pass to the post.

Just put the d*** ball on the floor and force the issue.

Even if you get a charging call, at least keep the defense honest and make them think you're a threat to score, so they don't sit back in their zone just watching you pass ineptly around it.

 

[msf22b]

Why was he yelling at Stewie during the t/o, she didn't throw the ball away.

 

[Icebear]

Down to single digits.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Sloppy. Game is potentially loseable if we don't pick it up.

 

[VAMike23]

Nice pass and catch

 

[ASweet3781]

Why are we playing zone? Teams can get back into it with the 3.
