UConn vs Louisville: Game Thread

[4UConn]

Hasn't Siva been at Louisville for like 6 years now? Seems like it!

not really what is he a sophmore? shabazz continues his awful shooting

 

[upstater]

Siva can take 4 steps apparently.

 

[RuffRuff]

Airball three, wild fling on a drive to the lane and an ill advised pass into traffic. All in three minutes - as is our Shabazz Nappier.

He did have a nice take in there.

Why Olander over Roscoe? He cannot keep up physically out there.

UConn with Boatright looking to speed up the game. I like it, but TOs a big concern.

 

[The Boatyard]

No complaints other than Drums' sloppiness. Olander's playing great (early foul might hurt though), Boat is attacking and not letting the pace slow down, and they're penetrating. We have a good shot. Blaney's starting to win me over.

 

[upstater]

Refs do not respect Blaney.

 

[HuskyFan32]

Shabazz needs to sit. One bad play after another. He has no confidence and it's showing

 

[RuffRuff]

5 PTs in 7 minutes - my god, don't think I've ever watched a Uconn team that looked this bad offensively. This looks like another lucky if we get to 50 game.

Nice pic from Oriakhi

how did drummond not jam that

 

[BankShot]

Can anyone tell me why Drummond keeps putting himself behind the basket, almost out of bounds on our possessions. He's in NO position for an offensive rebound. I know he's a Frosh, but man, where are you playing? THROW IT DOWN with two hands man

Boat's looking good, Jeremy's looking like he should be back next year

 

[RuffRuff]

Peyton Siva has one ugly jump shot - you get no sense the kid thinks its going in when it leaves his hands.

He looks confused out there. It's like he's a split second behind on everything.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

daniels really has absolutely no confidence at this point

 

[4UConn]

That wide open 3 kills me.

 

[RuffRuff]

Becoming clear why Deandre's minutes are so limited - kid is a 4 year player.

6 years of hype packed into 3 years of under-performance

Good- uconn needs some seniors!

 

[Gurleyman]

Philosophically, I don't like what this team does. Kuric is a corner shooter and he has gotten 5 wide, wide open corner shots because we have five guys in the paint on Siva drives. We also get the ball to the free throw line against the zone with our worst decision makers - over and over. At one point, Lamb was wide open there and we threw it over him to DeAndre Daniels on the other side.

 

[The Boatyard]

The Boatshow!!! Great move by Daniels there too.

 

[caw]

6 bad ref decisions so far:

• Charge by Lamb - hurt UConn
• No call on Lamb drive - hurt UConn
• Travel by Oriakhi - no points, wasted time
• Tip shot by Drummond - hurt UL
• No reset on the Cards shot - they missed the alley-opp and the shot clock reset for no reason then they missed a three
• Questionnable call on Boatright drive - hurt UL

 

[RuffRuff]

Kiric basically sits out there waiting for Siva to penetrate - there is no need to collapse on Siva, he can penetrate but not a great finisher. A majority of the time the kid doesn't even look to shoot. Shade a little but certainly not so much that he's sitting out there by himself.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

Is Lamb playing this game or did they leave him back in Storrs?

 

[HuskyFan32]

God dammit. Shabazz comes in for thirty seconds and gives up another wide open three. All he does is take awful shots, turn it over, and give up wide open threes! Why does he play???? He kills us.
