Message: [QUOTE="Hunt for 7, post: 5144402, member: 12414"] We are deep. If Nowell was healthy I think we would have seen 10 ten players with more than a few minutes. Our wings are a strength. We knew that. Go back and watch the second half and see how many times Nemhard scored when Ross was guarding him…..the answer is exactly what we needed. Stewart is an even better shooter than I thought. Reed has crazy upside. He missed a few bunnies today but 3 blocks, he can get up for being so big. Johnson is looking better every game him and Diarra are figuring it out. Hope he will recover quickly. I heard it is concussion protocol and I am hopeful that we kept him out in an abundance of caution. If his head was hurting and his ears ringing don’t think he would have been on the bench as crazy loud as it was in the Garden tonight. Liam is as advertised. He is our best creator with the ball in his hand. He can play point forward and we can play him with Solo, Stewart, AK and Reed/Johnson. He may challenge Steph for most BE Freshman of the week awards. AK well, they defended him well and he was just off. It happens. The really bad pass worries me more. He never let an off shooting night effect other parts of his game and he did ok with that tonight, but that pass that late in the game …yikes never thought I would see that. But he will win games for us this year. And finally a big shout out to UConn nation. Watching on tv the place sounded every bit as loud as any Knick playoff game last year. Good win. Would be nice to string together a little run. Schedule very favorable over the next six games. As Hurley like to say we have shown championship DNA with our response to the Maui debacle. It is what it is but if Hurley does not get that T we might be top five. Margin for error is just a lot smaller than it has been. We beat a school many have said was a final four team. And we did it without our starting center out with injury and AK our captain having one of his worst games of his career. [/QUOTE]
