UConn vs Creighton this Sunday

[Jaker]

Bishop such a smooth game in the paint.

 

[HooperScooper]

These second chance points are killing me!

 

[sdhoops]

What the hell was that matador defense on the last two possessions? Why not try to take a charge or something?! Wow! Lucky that there was a deflection

 

[BGesus4]

Did anyone else think that stop by RJ went off Creightons knee? Or at least deserved a review?

Smh cole scares me everytime he touches the ball

Yup, too cocky with the lead. We gift wrapped overtime and we're lucky we didn't already lose.

 

[Vuce]

obviously can’t do anything about it but if this were normal times and fans filled Gampel we would have won this game already. Would have been electric

 

[Jaker]

Hurley's coaching down the stretch, sketchy

A lot of misses on open shots

Can only keep up on ESPN gamecast. Here is the summary of the last 10 min.

"Uconn misses 3 point shot"

"Creighton offensive rebound."

Just a complete choke job. And that coaching by Hurley down the stretch - yikes.

 

[nomar]

Team minus Book is 11 for 40. Gross.

 

[Jaker]

game over, should have won this, too bad

 

[Jaker]

In close games, bad offense always gets exposed

 

[3RingsCT]

Choke job. Should have won this game.

 

[bmayuc]

wow and to think anyone could hit a single wide open shot we would have won easily.

Also, Hurley did a bad job on the last possession of regulation - having gaffney guarding a 6'7 dude is super bad coaching.

 

[Vuce]

Cole 2-14 on FGs and missed 2 FTs to clinch it. Awful

 

[CTBasketball]

That was a disgusting last 10 minutes to watch.

Not trying to be a coach, but maybe practice some late game situations with a 4 point lead. Coming down and trying to take dumb shots right away isn't the smartest! On defense, you can tell they set up expecting Creighton to set up but they were trying to get a quick bucket so there's only one place they're trying to go. Relatively young team so I'm sure they'll get better, but man!!

It seems to be a consistent issue with Hurley’s teams down the stretch.

I really like the players he’s bringing in, and player development is back on track. But the in-game coaching is somewhat of a problem.
