Bad practices maybe?

Temple is good. They could expose Molly and Kyla. Wait a few minutes.

Bent in now

Danger being back will probably eat into Molly's minutes too.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Kyla in now

Temple hasn't rolled over like most teams would down 30+. Gotta give them and Cardoza credit.

I think that would only make Geno keep them off the floor if were a close game. Otherwise "trial by fire". If they practice good they will play some.

Chong for 3!!! 95-62

TLaw in for KLS

 

[Sluconn Husky]

UConn's in danger of being outscored for a full half.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

51 points in the 2nd half for Temple.

Atrocious half. Start like this against South Carolina and we're toast.

Yeah, that's gonna happen

Last game was an outlier. 2 games in a row is a pattern. The verbal bullets next practice will be flying indiscriminately.

Start the game the way we did tonight and South Carolina won't have a chance.

Geno mentioned Kia has a bad ankle? 1st I've heard of it>

SC looks at the 2nd half and just felt their fears melt away.

Did you watch them play? They've got plenty of their own issues.

1st half... A+
2nd half... D+

Say what you will about how hard Temple played, but we lost the 2nd half by 6. That's an entire 20 minutes of basketball. Believe me I realize we were up big time at the half, but just like Geno was not happy with how we played in the first half last game, he should be very displeased with our entire 2nd half tonight. It's good that we haven't peaked yet, that's for sure!

what oldude said: Geno said Kia is "nursing" a bad ankle. what gives?

Atrocious half. Start like this against South Carolina and we're toast.

SC does not have the quickness that Temple has and they don't move the ball as well as Temple was moving the ball in the second half. The sky is not falling.

You mean end like this. But it's very true. 51 pts for temple in the half and the last game they played they scored 51 total

I don't know how Molly and Kyla practiced this week, but we saw in the second half that Temple is capable of getting steals and hitting threes in short order.

WOW!!! I have never seen a team torch the UConn defense like this. Ever. Temple just scored 51 points in the second half. I don't know how competitive they've been this year, but they are clearly capable of pulling off some major upsets. They just scored more points in a half against UConn than almost anyone has in many years. Has anyone done that against UConn before?

These kids can hit 3's, they can drive inside, they can get rebounds. I am REALLY impressed with Temple. I suspect that they're getting better. Watch out for Temple in the tournament.

I know they only scored 18 in the first half. But once they got going, UConn couldn't stop them.

WOW!!!
