Message: [QUOTE="TheShot1990, post: 4847402, member: 12911"] [CENTER][B]What they are saying about us. Unaltered quotes from hoyatalk[/B][/CENTER] [B]Pregame:[/B] If no Clingan or Clingan in foul trouble game can be won. UConn is not as good as last year and are slow and unathletic with Karaban and cam Spenser. Watching Castle or Newton or Johnson and then calling them slow and unathletic is certainly a choice. I like the optimism but there is zero shot we win this game. UConn now sees the #1 ranking in site. I think we have a shot if no Clingan. Two of their starters are slow and unathletic. Karaban is slow and lacks quick twitch. He’s also very soft. Fielder should be able to run circles around Karaban and dominate him. Can Spencer has a very high IQ and is automatic from 3 but is as slow as molasses. I think Rowan matches up really well with him and can use his in your chest/face defense to stifle Spencer. Their center Samson Johnson is very long and quick but is a string bean. If Supreme can put a body on him he should be able to anchor him to the floor. [B]Game:[/B] Forgot how much i dislike Hurley. Need to get more ball movement on offense. UConn had one sequence with 7 passes ending with a bucket in the lane. UConn seems to be lulled to sleep by us. Surprised to be this close despite not being able to hit a 3, and an unkind whistle thus far. Epps 1-6 and ball dominant. UCONN’s length giving him problems. The Uconn defensive strategy is obvious...run us off the 3 point line. 3 taken total (none made). Somebody needs to be living in Karaban's jersey all game. Yep. Talent disparity is just enormous G-d, I hate Hurley Wow - Hurley completely outfoxes Cooley out of that timeout Have to figure out a way to stick on Karaban. Most of his 3s have been absolutely wide open practice shots. If UConn was just shooting a tepid 7-13 from 3 instead of 9-13 it’s a 2 pt game! Gtwn neds guys who can consistently hit the same 3 that UCONN's Spencer just did I get Spencer and Karaban are good shooters getting good looks, but even Steph Curry misses. We are little unlucky they both can’t miss right now. I really wanted Hurley with the Hoyas at one point and was really peeved when he went to UConn. I really don't like him either and I keep wondering if I would hate him if he were Hoya's coach (I have a feeling I still may). The UCONN players are a lot classier than their coach [/QUOTE]
