Tulsa game thread

Am I missing something or should we maybe have shot a three there...

 

[MilliniumPrince]

Wow

 

[NowInStorrs]

Rebounds are hard.

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Great. Got the missed free throw, gave up the offensive board. Sweet.

 

[the Q]

Gotta pass the ball there.

 

[UConnJim]

That loss is on Ollie. No way Larrier should have played almost the whole 2nd half.

another new low has been put in the books.

On the other hand he did put in two big buckets when we needed them

 

[Javjudah]

No Synergy with Larrier in the game.

 

[jibsey]

Just got off a plane, missed the game. We lost to Tulsa at home?

 

[Tex-Lager93]

The most unfundamental team in America.

 

[superjohn]

Easy there Welches I'm not in the mood

The refs don't operate the clock.

 

[uconnphil2016]

Circus lay up not exactly the greatest strategy there

 

[Waquoit]

We did not have a time out. Ollie blows.

 

[RJScootin]

Better days will come. Time for change

 

[UConnJim]

No way we should have lost this game. The 2 fouls in first half put Larrier on the bench and we built a 9 point lead. I am so mad as Larrier was terrible, but Ollie stuck with him. No Cobb or Williams in 2nd half. Why?

They're all on Ollie, he's a horrendous coach.

I never wished I was on a plane before.

 

[Danzz]

Would like to see a more rested Adams in the final few minutes. Shooting with tired legs is not a good combination.

Golly that's really insightful. I'll bet you know a lot about basketball. You know what betting is right? That's when you gamble on an outcome and actually pay off if you lose. Well, most people anyway.

 

[Hamms30]

how many times did Carlton clear the paint with his back to a driving attacker chasing his guy to the perimeter? Only Larrier could hit two of the biggest threes and make two of the most nausea inducing defensive plays back to back...

Tulsa's a hoops powerhouse! 5 stars flock there. How can we compete with them in this conference?!!!....

You blamed the refs for the clock running, no need to throw a tantrum.

 

[UCweCONN]

Can't wait to see the UCONN Men's Basketball Facebook page's positive spin on this one. 5, 4, 3......

 

[KodiacKemba]

4 mins in the bonus and our players don’t attack attack attack .... other team layup layup open layup .. game over

This is the fork game.

In other words, the "stick a fork in it, it is DONE."

I mean, this is the game you play for pride. The "we are pissed we lost that game in 2 overtimes at your place, now you are coming to our house...get ready" game. The "we are pissed you are writing trash about us in Tulsa, here comes the hurt" game. And Uconn lost. Honestly, we are in Mid Feb. and I gotta say, Uconn is more than done. Perhaps a win at ECU but Uconn never plays well on short turn around away from home. Than a beatdown at Cincy and home against a resurgent Temple before another beat down at Houston. This is just painful to watch.

I was more interested in checking out if Temple could score the upset over WSU. Or if Houston can expand their lead. That is a FIRST for me, as a Uconn fan, that I am MORE interested and intrigued about another game during a Uconn game.

Wow. Stick a fork in Uconn.

Opposite of the last game, except the end, which was the same.

 

[Waquoit]

Do those assistant coaches actually assist?

 

[Candyman]

Of course some will say you can’t win with this team. Yet this was a winnable game and Ollie went small again and let them back in the game. Polley got some threes but in 2nd half was pointless. We needed two bigs in there to take advantage of them being small. This was on Ollie not reason the flow of the game. With Williams and Carlton we were dominating.

Adams had a pull-up jumper for winner but threw up a bad shot. He’s doesn’t know how to draw contact.
