Giff is our new

[Dogbreath2U]

Pinkston was getting real frustrated because Niels was not letting him push him around….fun to watch. Actually Pinkston made a stupid foul and was immediately taken about by Wright who saw the frustration……….

Pinkston was pretty much a non-factor in the second half.

I tend not to put too much stock in one game (we were oh so close to not playing last night) but Giffey last night made us look more like what I was seeing from lots of other tournament teams that UConn hadn't really had, and that is a guy who was busting his rear to get the rebounds. Whether that had more to do with Nova than just Giffey's effort, I guess we'll soon see, but it was fun to watch. Bazz is not to shabby a rebounder himself, which shows what positioning does for you.

Giffey was an absolute monster on the boards last night. Multiple times he just out willed Nova.

As valuable as Giffey has been to this team, I never expected that kind of game coming from him. Brilliant!

Hard worker on defense & boards every game, Plus his offense. Great!

I can't think of anyone who didn't have a good night. Samual, Kromah, Boat, Bazz, Brimah, Daniels all were good! Proud Husky fan tonight!

Omar and Tyler were quiet.........................t

True. I guess, subconsciously, I wasn't counting them. Weird. I kept thinking about whether Nolan had a decent game.

My girlfriend kept asking me why Niels was getting all the rebounds. I told her he wanted them the most. The kid can play and will have a nice pro career.

I hope so.
