UConn vs Nova - Game Thread

[OneTrickPony]

Stef is a force this year...

 

[OneTrickPony]

MoJeff makes a pull-up...!

 

[UConnChapette]

I can see my score prediction is going to be way off. I will be way too low for UConn and way too high for 'Nova if the game follows true to the first 16 1/2 minutes.

Bench playing more minutes in the 1st half then I thought they would. Didn't think UConn would have a 30 point lead by half time. Nova not shooting like Nova teams usually do.

 

[jplotinus]

Yup, score predictions are off. :-(

10 have some pt already

 

[OneTrickPony]

The long arm of the law...Breanna style

 

[UConnChapette]

'Nova can't buy a three this game. So typical, live by the three, die by the three. And of course as I type this they hit one!

 

[UConnChapette]

Shea is either not happy about something, or there is a bad odor in the air. So intense!

44-17 at the half. Time to take out the garbage. Be back in a bit.

 

[UConnChapette]

My score prediction will only be right if UConn scores 18 in the second half and 'Nova scores 34. Is that likely?

Bria still finding the range...

Bria took 3 shots, all late, one chippy, 2 3's. No success yet.

Hey! Nova is not great, but I wouldn't call them garbage. (snicker).

 

[wire chief]

Halftime has disappeared--just a black screen, no sound, rudely interrupting Kara..

 

[pinotbear]

Really like what I'm seeing from KML and Stewie. They both seem to be bringing a high level of intensity and effort on the boards and on D. One of the last things that younguns' seem to learn, yet they're both bringing it tonight.

Wow. Impressive half. Especially against Nova. Didn't expect that. Hopefully they can continue in the 2nd half.

 

[UConnChapette]

And 'Nova starts the second half with a three.

Needed to reboot it. Now works.

KML is having a great game and growing into a great player.

 

[UConnChapette]

KML is looking so good, tough rebound then goes up strong for the basket!

 

[Samanthabrown3]

And Stef is making great shots from everywhere!

 

[Icebear]

Stef is becoming automatic on that 15-18 foot shot.

51-21 15:30 to go.

 

[UConnChapette]

You would think that someone would realize that Stef is getting almost automatic from that spot and make an effort to guard her. Glad they don't think of it though!

Wait until Baylor.

 

[wire chief]

It's getting clearer & clearer that our 2 offensive essential guys are Kaleena & Stef.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

KML suddenly cold. Did you jinx her, Wire Chief?

 

[Samanthabrown3]

Only two in double figures. Playing time?

 

[UConnChapette]

The water bug is in now for KML

 

[Icebear]

Wait until Baylor.

Baylor is exactly why this development has been so important for Stef.

Bria catches her first trey
