UConn - Florida post game thread

[CL82]

Wow what a complete win

 

[superjohn]

Well offensively we played like our C/C- game and we destroyed them.

Clingan was the best player on the court and player of the game and when he wasn't out there Sanogo was the best player on the floor along with Hawk. Hawk is becoming very Rip and Ray like with his constant movement/sprinting off off screens.

Our defense is always great and defense travels. Florida was totally demoralized with about 6 minutes left.

All of this happened with our point guards playing horribly and getting nothing from Karaban and Alleyne on offense. The point guard play was unacceptable and Hurley is going to be on them.

I just don't see many losses on the schedule this year, it's getting harder to envision losses when we can play that poorly on the offensive end and still mop up on the road.

Point guard play has to be better and Alleyne has to start giving us something on offense for us to really show how great we are. I know Hurley is all about defense but Joey gives us so much more than the other guys on offense. He was a gigantic pickup.

 

[Bomber36]

Dang…we’re good.

 

[tykurez]

That was our B- game and we win by 21? I’m honestly at a loss for words with how to describe this team. This is UConn WBB kind of stuff.

 

[YoungFree]

Ball handling by Newton and H.D. was bad. Thats really my only complaint.

 

[t8per]

Up to #2 in Kempom

 

[fatlucy]

Slight disparity in free throws……..

 

[HuskyinWRNY]

A nice, steady performance e. A no nonsense win. Buckle up,more of the same on the horizon.

 

[SouleMan]

Up to #2 in Kenpom - just behind Houston.

 

[Punkbo]

3 Stars:
#3 - Transition Offense
#2 - Defensive Effort
#1 - Tage Thompson

Slight disparity in free throws……..

It didn’t matter.

 

[auror]

Couple points:

• UConn just absolutely erased Will Richard. Like he didn't exist.
• Clingan looked like the best player in the country. His hands and coordination are unbelievable for his size.
• The PGs played like ass. Some of that was the combo of smaller quicker defenders plus Castleton over the top, but gross.
• Calcaterra keeps doing it. It's absurd.
• Refs bailed out Florida constantly. And we still won by 21.

 

[UConnRock]

If AJ had Joey’s ability to finish a drive he would be a lottery pick. Joey has a lot more than just the 3 pointer. The big man defense against Castleton was fantastic.

I want Houston

 

[HuskyHawk]

Great defensive performance. By both teams. UConn wore Florida down. Sanogo best player. Jackson next best, owned the boards , started fast breaks. Clingan benefits from that but also does the job. He plays D. Ultimately that’s the ID of the team. 10 deep, no let up.

I want Houston

About to lose to Alabama

About to lose to Alabama

Still want em

“With 6 minutes left “ like in the final four.

[gsmooth]

I know Hurley wasn't happy with only 11 assists in the OK State game. 16 assists is a good comeback.

 

[QDOG5]

We got less than nothing from Newton, Alleyne, and Diarra. Newton had 5 turnovers and Diarra 3. I bet it's the first time in NCAA history that a team gets out shot at the line 28-9 and wins by 20+

They couldn't do anything near the basket when Clingan was in there.

 

[tykurez]

This team is like a 7 or 8 seed in the western conference

 

[HuskyHawk]

They couldn't do anything near the basket when Clingan was in there.

They torched him a few times

Slight disparity in free throws……..

But I thought big free-throw disparities meant the refs jobbed you and the reason you lost.../s
