Best news: no chance Andersen can work the game on Monday

He wasn’t that bad today.

 

[1999GoodSon]

and a lot of intimidation from Clingan.

Clingan gives me goosebumps over how great he's going to be.

I thought Newton was very good tonight against a defender who was allowed to basically rag him with impunity. He’s as underrated a player as we’ve had in a while.

I would love to know why it is he’s allowed to be abused so much. Like every game by every opponent.

Other than the phantom moving screen call on Alex I agree. But would still rather not take the chance.

Been saying it all year, he gets no calls. It’s absurd.

We committed 11 fouls. That has to be a season low.

what about the ref conspiracy?

 

[Bomber36]

Early line…UConn by 7.

 

[AdamaNation]

Took down the Zags like it was 1999, now it's time to take down SDSU like it's 2011.

SDSU like 2011? No way. We ain’t winning by 1. 19 maybe with our scrubs ending the season on the court. This is an historical run we are on….,,,,,again.

 

[1999GoodSon]

We committed 11 fouls. That has to be a season low.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't we just have freaking 2 fouls in the 2nd half? Outstanding defense.

 

[AdamaNation]

One more. If we win Monday, hang Sanogo's jersey on the wall by Friday

Yeah. Kemba level. Not as dependent on as the only alpha/superstar. But the closest to that. He goes down as one if the 3 best leaders with bazz and Kemba.

 

[AdamaNation]

This!

They threw haymakers and tried to get back into it but we always had an answer.

What a run we are on you guys.

We had an answer with coolness and calm. I have no idea what Danny untapped before presidents weekend.

 

[AdamaNation]

Has there been a more dominant tournament run?

Maybe unlv and Anthony Davis team?04 huskies. Jay Williams Duke team.

 

[slepers]

Who do you pick next for your all time starting 5???

Caron

 

[AdamaNation]

Unsung heroes- Tristan - 8 assists, Karaban 9 boards.

Alleyne……Joey c

 

[elmcityboy]

play of the game for me didn't even show up in the youtube highlights -- it was calcaterra sprinting back on d to strip wong and somehow ping-pong the ball off of a miami defender. unreal. big momentum boost, too.

 

[gsmooth]

The Huskies are outstanding. But do they understand that San Diego State is an excellent basketball team?

They better because SD St is in the finals and have left a trail of good teams in their wake including our Big East brother Creighton

I agree I could not believe how they were bodying newton pushing and grabbing never called a foul. I would rather they let them play because it benefits us in most situations with our depth.

 

[temery]

I would just like to say this Miami team showed nothing but class and great attitudes. After watching the press conference with Coach Larranega, Isaiah Wong, and Jordan Miller, it's tough not to like them. We beat an excellent team tonight, and they lost to a more excellent team. They played with toughness, made a few runs, but we just had too much.

Said the same thing in another thread. One player said they return everyone. Good luck to them, except when they play UConn.

 

[giddyup]

Not much can be said, but WOW. Love the contribution and mix of skills coming together as a team…Adama, DC, AK, AJ, Hawk, Newton, Joey.

Play D, hit the boards hard, eliminate turnovers and we be in great shape.

 

[hayman522]

Yes San Diego State is good or they would not be here. But they were fortunate to win a lot of their games.

Caron

 

[HooperScooper]

Tagging @freescooter to trigger him

Usually don't see him when things are going this well. It's a shame he can never be happy.

 

[caw]

So if UConn wins Monday, does that mean Karaban can't shave until next year?

 

[I Bleed Blue]

Unsung heroes- Tristan - 8 assists, Karaban 9 boards.

I think we still need to figure out who our PG is going to be the rest of the way. Doomed

Totally agree. He gets knocked around on his drives to the hole, and rarely gets a call. Absolute BS.
