There's always the slots if you're bored.

Wait!! There were slots in CT!

UConn may be a lot like LV. Easy transition.
 
when watching that video I ask myself "what did Jamie tell his team?".

was it "whatever you do, don't double up on Kemba"?

or maybe "make Kemba shoot, don't leave Jamal Coombs-McDaniel or anybody else open?"

their defensive strategy mystifies me to this day

The Pitt players actually talked about that after the game. Dixon told them to switch everything and they put McGhee on Jamal Coombs-McDaniel and Gilbert Brown on Oriakhi knowing that a ball screen was coming. But they wrongly assumed Oriakhi would set the ball screen and they were OK with Brown guarding Kemba on the switch. But in a subtle piece of Hall of Fame coaching, Calhoun just had whoever McGhee was guarding (Jamal Coombs-McDaniel) set the screen to get the mismatch he wanted.

I also remember Wanamaker was asked why he didn't double Kemba and his response was he didn't want to leave Jamal Coombs-McDaniel open.
