Surface glance of the board after today’s W shows many disappointed with today’s margin of victory.  I think we easily could have won this game by double digits if a few of the 50/50 calls go differently.  Please see Vital Harden Dribble Travel and any of the block/charges.  Please do not see Sid Goal Tend.

For me what makes that ring even more true is Tulane hit a series of contested and difficult shots.  Thompson was playing extremely well individually.  I don’t think they’ll be as fortunate when we square off next week.

UConn, conversely made great shot selection decisions all game long.  They made the extra pass.  They shot faked and took the open mid range jumper.  They shared the basketball really well and took the lane at the right times.

Maybe it’s the 4 guard out 1 athletic undersized big (nova style) offense we’ve stumbled into by necessity, but it’s been a long time since we had an offense that was this in sync and doing the right things.

Between Vital consistently showing more of his all-time-UConn-heart-team self (Khalid, Freeman, Adrien, Kemba) and less of his all-time-bad-turnover-team self(Johnny time, Johnny time, Johnny time, Johnny time) I think it’s ours to lose.

House Money.  Fun times.
