Nevada Game Thread

Nevada going to the line to shoot free throws with 4 minutes left in the quarter. UConn players are reaching, many of the calls were valid.

Nevada has slowed the ball down and taking great shots Nevada 15 UConn 8 in the 2rd quarter.

 

[HuskyNan]

I’m saying there blowing the whistle every few seconds, hard to get rhythm when there’s constant stoppage.

Then UConn needs to adjust to the way the refs are calling the game.

 

[HuskyNan]

Nice play, Kyla

 

[CTGirl15]

Can't blame the refs for sloppy passes and lazy defense.

 

[CMC'72]

The starters should be on the bench by now. They're letting Nevada hang around.

Kyla to the rescue.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Kia for 3!!! 71-44 :33 3rd

 

[RockyMTblue2]

A little more like it. And Kia answers.

 

[YellwJcket999]

Nurse for Threeeeeeeee!

 

[HoopsFan21]

71-44 end 3rd, weird the backboard lit up 3 seconds before the end of the quarter.

 

[JordyG]

Not a quarter or a game for the archives guys.

 

[Kaizen]

 

[HoopsFan21]

Anyone still think Kia's not a first rounder?

 

[Kaizen]

Kia 6-6 3 pts, 21 pts total

 

[ochoopsfan]

Baskets in the Paint after 3
Uconn 6-7-7 = 20
Lady Lucks 1-2-2 = 5

If Nurse goes 9 for 9 please take her out, Geno, Please!!!

Nope.

 

[bags27]

UConn is shooting an astounding 71.4% from the field

 

[oldude]

So Kyla gets the Nevada player up in the air who then falls over her back and no foul is called?

just for that, I hope she goes 11-11. . No fair favoring one Husky over another!

3rd Quarter ended up tied at 18-18. One of the worse quarters of UConn BB considering the talent disparity.

Give Credit to Nevada they slowed the ball down and took great shots.

Looking at the 3rd quarter stats UConn shot 8 - 11 for 72% , while Nevada shot 6-15 for 40%. UConn had 7 TO's to only 2 for Nevada in 3rd quarter.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Wow sky Gabby

I saw that, too. Clear foul and embarrassingly missed call.

 

[my2cents]

Gabby going airborne

 

[my2cents]

These refs are terrible

Looking at the 3rd quarter stats UConn shot 8 - 11 for 72% , while Nevada shot 6-15 for 40%. UConn had 7 TO's to only 2 for Nevada in 3rd quarter.

And a couple more bogus fouls called on UConn.

71-44 end 3rd, weird the backboard lit up 3 seconds before the end of the quarter.

That was because the shot clock
expired.

 

[CTGirl15]

Can someone please guard King when she shoots 3s?

 

[Sluconn Husky]

UConn getting outplayed this half by a 52-pt underdog.

 

[Husky fanatic]

Who’d of thunk!!!!

 

[ochoopsfan]

Nevada is playing this game as if they are down by one or two baskets, not 20 points. Impressed with their effort and hustle. This is the game of their lifetime.

 

[BostonCanuck]

Well this is not pretty at all. Our girls are really feeling this extended road trip. Credit to Nevada. I am glad that Gabby has played well and been able to showcase her one of a kind skill set at home.

 

[Wbbfan1]

Once again another quarter coming out completely flat. Nevada 9 UConn 3, three minutes into 4th quarter.

Geno calls a Time out. Geno and the players probably can't wait until this game is over. Some in the Crowd are probably saying UConn is not so great, why the hype?
