UConn v. Memphis — Game Thread

[GiladKatzDeli]

If Collier added a baby hook she'd up her scoring by 4 points a game.

Let me add Stevens to this... If she had a baby hook she'd never get her shot blocked.

 

[HuskyNan]

Put Lexi in, Coach.

 

[hoopingcrane]

Kyla conspiring to up Z's offensive rebound total. Nan's right,time for Lexi.

Funny how the Huskies can beat a team by 50 and be only moderately impressive. “Rare air” indeed...

What do you find unimpressive?

 

[MilfordHusky]

Z played small on a couple of sequences, but good overall.

 

[Bama fan]

Wow, 53 Point lead after 3 quarters! This is just like playing one of those lame ACC team, of which there are plenty!

Fourth quarter and the scoring has been more even. We are missing shots and getting screened on the other end. Our young ones are learning the hard way, but they are learning.

 

[HuskyNan]

It’s 88-34 for our at-work friends. Mikayla, Molly, Meg, Kyla, and Batouly in

 

[MilfordHusky]

All 10 players have scored. We have 4 in double-figures. Meg needs a spurt to get there.

Batouly?

 

[oldude]

Good stuff from Molly to Kyla

 

[HuskyNan]

Kyla out, Lexi in

 

[oldude]

Quick comment on Batouly. She uses her body to box out as well as anyone on the Huskies

 

[HuskyNan]

Good d by Molly. Meg for threeee!

 

[HuskyNan]

Nice move by Batouly, but those rims...

 

[hoopingcrane]

Meg two 3's, ruins my predicted point differential. 93-36 final.

 

[BigBird]

93-36. Some nice effort by the non-starters. And the starters weren’t so bad either.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Megan Mosqueda-Lewis finding the range.

 

[hoopingcrane]

Geno: meg more confident, playing more naturally.

 

[JavaMan]

 

[HuskyNan]

Geno - tactfully said Memphis couldn’t compete. Bench is getting there, Meg more confident. “ I like where these guys have been the last two games...I just want them to play well, it’s not about shooting well but playing well”

 

[Kaizen]

Megan 10 pts, 6 rebs ....

[RockyMTblue2]

"I never have to worry about Lou out there." What to say.

 

[oldude]

Megan Mosqueda-Lewis finding the range.

I'd like to see MW start the game out hot, and then stay hot.

 

[connie]

Megan 10 pts, 6 rebs ....

Sometimes she looks like she is already at the point where she can put up 20 points a night playing an entire game.

 

[BigBird]

What do you find unimpressive?

At the moment I posted, the Huskies were having a few too many turnovers, missing some bunnies, etc. But overall, it was a nice win, with the centerpiece being some really good defense (albeit against a weak foe with almost no bench).

Batouly?

Nice spurt by Meg!!!

 

[eebmg]

I thought Batouly had some good minutes. Her 2 rebounds were STRONG like a bully should be. Her hustle was great and she made a very nice move to the basket that just rimmed out. Unfortunately, she looks very slow which makes it hard to crack our rotation since we want to run 5 man fast breaks. Even if she turned the corner on her injury, their effects in terms of conditioning and speed must be affecting her.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Perhaps unnoticed by many is that Molly is becoming a better and better passer.

Kyla bailed her on Kyla's last points. Molly flinched on a shot and dribbled herself into trouble, but yes. She's getting to be quite the ball handler. Hey, Molly, shoot the damn thing!
