Thought Kimani did a great job of recognizing when Sanogo needed a break second half. Shots were getting a little flat around 10 minute mark. When he came back he was a force .

Great game. Made my day. Just two downers:
1. We must be number 1 in not communicating to teammates that they are about to be stripped from behind.
2. We must learn that, if the defender can reach to 9 feet a pass must be 10 feet.

Anyway........UCONN is on its way back.

I noticed the same thing. When Tyreese? stole the ball and got stripped from Gillespie. Thought maybe it was too loud?

Sanogo is not a superior athlete and he's 6'8. He probably should dunk more, but about 80% of the time I see people crying for it, they have it wrong. The kid can score close to the basket exceptionally well; I don't see how we should criticize that part of his game much at all.

Everything Sanogo throws up looks like a master pop-a-shot player. I can live with fewe dunks from him. The mostly go down clean as well. It really has to demoralize opponents. If he learns to kick it out and reset when he's not inside the paint, he will be unstoppable shooting 70%.

I don't intend to be critical of any player, Adama has been huge for us. But he has missed some bunnies and has been blocked under the basket more than once. This team has so many things going right, I just like the high percentage, go up strong, "send it home", dunk.

The advantage of a dunk, especially if he is so close to the basket, is he can draw a foul on his defender. Getting another team's bigs in foul trouble would be greatly beneficial.
