UConn vs UCLA game thread

[JustinesGuy]

I'm not a huge UCLA guy but I do think number 2 is a good shooter. Watch out for her.

 

[TitleTown]

They have completely taken the paint away from us. Hopefully these 3's will loosen them up a little bit.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Kia for 3!!! 19-11 1:20 1st TO UCLA

 

[Buzzyboy]

A 17-2 run for the Huskies.

 

[UConnDan97]

What a fake by Nurse! Sweet move...

 

[Blue Huskie]

We are in BIG trouble ladies and gentleman!

And now?

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Once UConn stops getting out-hustled they'll be fine.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Morgan Tuck in the house!

 

[JordyG]

This team ain't going away. You have to make them go away.

 

[Zorro]

Isn't that something like 18 of her last 22 3s for Kia?

 

[JordyG]

Some uncharacteristic stuff UConn is doing.

 

[GoUconn7961]

I'm of a differing of opinion - there is no flow yet in this game for the Huskies.

 

[Blue Huskie]

Once UConn stops getting out-hustled they'll be fine.

You wonder if some of that is the thinking that they can't get into foul trouble?

 

[JordyG]

Right now UConn is leading through execution and poise.

 

[UConnDan97]

Once UConn stops getting out-hustled they'll be fine.

We're out-rebounding them 11-5. Nice try...

 

[HoopsFan21]

22-13 end 1st

 

[nwhoopfan]

Boneheaded foul by UCLA leads to 3 extra points to end the quarter for UConn.

 

[JordyG]

Nice box out executed by Pheese for the 2.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

I'm not sure they were ready for the intensity UCLA brought early.

 

[BigBird]

So... multiplying it out, we win by 36. Maybe or maybe not.

 

[ochoopsfan]

Baskets in the Paint after 1
UCLA 4
UConn 3

Huskies must do better than that.

 

[Buzzyboy]

It's been choppy but I'm starting to see the Bruins starting to foul and that may have an affect on them. UConn is slowly getting back to themselves and their passing is getting much crisper. Ball movement helps them immensely.

You're funny!

I don't know, I think it's just jitters myself. A lot of teams play them with great intensity in the first half until they run out of gas.

 

[Buzzyboy]

We're out-rebounding them 11-5. Nice try...

Quickness off your feet is a big advantage for UConn.
