Official Bounce the Buffs Game Thread

[superjohn]

August, eat another goshdarn turkey and ketchup sandwich.

 

[Candyman]

Cassell and Omar together? wtf

 

[Ripper32]

Too much iso on the offense side. Not surprised the buffs are beating up on us. We got a bad drawing and then with KU on the other side.

 

[traitor71]

Get Cassell off the court, what the hell is Ollie doing?

It is a bit mind boggling. We're not playing against some juggernaut so the game can change quickly, but you don't want to let it get away with stupid plays, which is what we are starting to see now. That shot was ill advised to say the least.

 

[Gurleyman]

Frustrating that our role players are either scared to death to get the ball (Nolan, Facey) or act like they need to shoot the instant they touch it (Cassell).

 

[7774]

This has largely been a hose job by the officials, but these lineups by Ollie haven't been helping.

Well you're going to have odd line ups when 2 of your best players are on the bench most of the half.

 

[3RingsCT]

Well...this isn't good.....

 

[superjohn]

Gibbs finally

 

[John]

UGHHHHHHHH

 

[Peacefrog]

For the love of all that is holy, stop putting Sam in. He is a one trick pony and he's not very good at that trick. He's guaranteed to chuck a contested three as soon as humanly possible after getting in. Unless Gibbs, Adams and Purvis all break legs he needs to stay planted on the bench. I would honestly be interested in hearing the rationale for sending him in.

 

[superjohn]

Not blocking out, inexcusable

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Nothing going right

 

[BleedHuskyBlu]

Offensive rebounda of free throws...nice

 

[superjohn]

Adams just got fouled

 

[Peacefrog]

W T F!? Getting good looks but can't hit anything.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Brimah has really been underwhelming thus far, shouldn't have to switch off of Scott

 

[superjohn]

We are shooting wide open airballs.

 

[King Jonathan]

at work can't watch this. Looks like CU frontline is scoring buckets, and we are not getting to the free throw line
I'm surprised theyre not down even more

 

[UConnWingman]

Honestly, UConn's lucky Colorado's floor general has been saddled with 2 fouls for a good chunk of this half, cuz otherwise the score would be lopsided right now.

 

[geohusky]

I know I'm biased but these refs are worse than awful

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Honestly, UConn's lucky Colorado's floor general has been saddled with 2 fouls for a good chunk of this half, cuz otherwise the score would be lopsided right now.

You know Miller and Purvis have been out the whole half, right? It goes in both directions.

Colorado's trash, but unfortunately the good guys are making them look like stars.

 

[Peacefrog]

The refs aren't helping but Purvis and Miller each had (all too typical) stupid reach in fouls that have them on the bench.

 

[KemBuckets21]

Seems like the physicality is equal on both sides, but we're getting hit with more fouls. Especially, the softer fouls.

Purvis had two fouls not far after their PG and Miller has been on the bench for a long time with two also. That's UConns best two defenders IMO.

Then the score'd be tied in your scenario. I'm only saying this score could be a hell of a lot worse.
