UConn/Tulsa game thread

[BugsyCT]

good start for us

 

[Stainmaster]

Miller from downtown back to back...did not know he had the ability to do that consistently. He's also been a monster on the boards.

 

[Gringo]

Horrible call on the flagrant. Also don't understand Ollie's lineup of Nolan and Cassel in the game at the same time.

We gain momentum on a 10-0 run to go up 18-7 so naturally put in Phil and Sam, while leaving Facey, a limited offensive player, on the floor as well.

 

[3rdbass]

Where is Omar?

 

[minidarren]

How long does Shonn need to be set for that to not be a blocking foul? He may have been set for a full 5 seconds.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Again offense looks pretty bad

Again offense looks pretty bad

Confused as to how the "pass the ball aimlessly around the perimeter" offense isn't working against the zone

Is ESPN lagging for anyone. It's almost like this game is being broadcasted from...Tulsa.

You guys know there's a chatroom, right?!

And Tulsa promptly responds with a 10-0 run of their own to take the lead. Ugh...

New O. Drive into 3 guys and turn it over. So inconsistent within games.

Don't kid yourself, we don't drive

DHam really struggling

Chat room sucks

This team's ability to give up game-changing runs is impressive.

Shonn's really going to need to be the anchor of the offense moving into the second half posting up at the free throw line against this zone. They should be flashing Hamilton more at the free throw line as well, not sure why we aren't seeing more of that. Get him closer to the basket to make plays for our bigs with his passing ability.

 

[Hankster]

Speechless. Looked fantastic at the start. I can see, but cannot figure them out. End of the first half. Hopefully they figure it out. Had a 21-12 lead.

Ollie might be the best coach ever at this. It's like the other coach always makes an adjustment and it takes a 20-0 run for KO to realize what happened. But stair master likes 20-0 runs so it's ok.

 

[shakes65]

There is a way to attack a zone. Nothing mysterious. Calhoun's good teams knew how to do it. Ask Boeheim.

These guys play like they don't have a clue.

This is a tough team to watch much too often.

 

[UConnStats]

Hamilton is a bad offensive player against zone defense. Just is paralyzed by it because he can't dribble well enough to penetrate it.

DHam really tentative on that 3 ball miss. Gotta snap out of it.

 

[Stinger92860]

Our zone offense is.........

Too many 3's. Lots of standing around, no hard cuts.
