Top 5 plays from Uconn Scrimmage

[OkaForPrez]

Phillin' it up. P.S. that looks like Amida not challenging on that last finish off the Bazz no look. I'll eat my hat if Phil isn't starting at the 5 come October.

Cool, thanks for posting. Why do people always feel the need to put these hip hop mixes in these video clips? IMO they'd be so much more enjoyable without the music.

Spoken like a true old dude.

Nolan reminds me of Rod Sellers, the way he moves and skill level. Big upside.

Phil looks great on his highlights. Who are the guys dunking in. #3 and #1? Tough to tell on the small screen on my phone. Thanks.

And anyone know when this took place?

GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

Nice to see Shabazz seemingly moving around without any issues.

Some of the newer computers (like every computer built after the TRS-80) have volume control. Problem solved.

I'm not expecting any sort of consistent offensive contribution from Nolan next year, but we have enough guys who will be able to do that. I think he can score 5 or 6 points per game if he attacks the glass and rolls hard through the lane - there will be a lot of attention paid to Napier and Boatright, so if he can simply catch and finish a lob I don't see any reason he can't do a poor man's Drummond impression on that side of the floor. Defensively is where he'll be relied on - if nothing else, he needs to protect the rim, guard the pick and roll respectably and hold his own in the post and on the boards.

Giffey made the German men's national team this year... I think he was in camp for them last year as well. In any case, it should help his game.

Bazz looks like he's toying with everybody. I think he can be a first team all american this year

 

[Scot-e]

^ He did look like a first team AA in that clip. The level of leadership he shows will be the main difference this year with Bazz

I like hip hop.

 

[huskiesnyc]

I'm pretty sure that was Kahari Beaufort dunking in the 3rd clip

If Amida is in some of the clips, it can't be more than 3 days old. He only arrived on campus Wednesday night.

I just don't see what it adds but you see it in all these highlight clips. I think it's a lot better when you hear guys calling out plays, barking at each other etc. I'll hop off my old man soapbox and hope not to break a hip.

You sound like that dorky character Jimmy Fallon did on SNL, Nick the computer guy. If you left the TRS-80 part out you might have looked somewhat cool.

LOL - I totally agree! I look for highlights where players show nice plays against the same opponent rather than a different opponent for each highlight.

So you can see the same poor sap getting demoralized over and over again??

Nolan looks like he's added some good muscle in the shoulders and upper arms. He's far from being compared to the Mailman, but he looks like he's ready to bang in the paint.

No fruit hangs too low for me to pass up.

And speaking of dorky, SNL?
