Message: [QUOTE="InKembaITrust, post: 2387643, member: 6729"] Haha. So I decided to stop watching once PC was up by about 20 early in the second half. Not because I was frustrated with Uconn's lackluster mistakes, but just because I only wanted a small taste of what the individual players looked like and just got bored watching a blowout exhibition that holds very little importance. With that said I'm not at all surprised with the play I did see. Terry had an abysmal game, but did show flashes of what we should expect from him once he's in mid-season form. Not surprising the ill-advised shots and bonehead turnovers he made with the amount of in-game experience he's had the past few years; think we can all agree with that. But I feel the majority of shots he did take and missed he'll ultimately make down the road, and the amount of shots he took was by design to get his confidence and rhythm back up to snuff. He will be a volume shooter for us and we're going to need him to make any noise in the AAC, so better to have him get a feel for that volume, make them or not, in a meaningless exhibition. The first half, which I watched entirely, I honestly thought we looked pretty good given the circumstances. Gotta give it to Providence they made some tough shots, and we missed some bunnies. Cobb has a lot to learn but if he works hard and puts it together he could be a player for us. Also really like Carlton, Jalen was Jalen, Alterique showed glimpses of what he can be down the road, and I liked Anderson's on ball defense. Overall it has to be accepted that it wasn't a game Ollie put much importance on winning, which obviously is a big reason for exhibitions in the first place. He subbed a lot to get a feel for different lineups and spread the in game experience. [/QUOTE]
