UConn vs Yale Game Thread???

Now Giffey is resting on the bench :-(

And the future shows itself.

Picked up his second foul. Probably won't see him again this half.

Giffey's shooting is contagious. Calhoun is stepping up and follow Giffey's suits.

This is why this team is so dangerous, and we have a minimum of 4 players that are legit threats from 3point land.

The Bazz/Niels pick and roll is going to be deadly all season. Love it.

Gary Apple -- really not good at this.

Giffey the first UConn player to hit 5 threes since February...so like 5 games ago?

Great start to the year for Giffey. Seems to be carrying over frm his stint with the German National Team. I think he shot like 70% for them (though somewhat limited attempts).

 

[Husky25]

These new rules are really making for choppy play.I hope these refs are able to establish a baseline for what's allowed and Uconn can adjust.

It's still only the first half.

 

[HailUConn]

The offense is so fluid now. the players on the court are talking and cheering to each other.
Chemistry is brewing right in front of our eyes.

I like KO's coaching decision today.

 

[upstater]

Giffey! Giffey! Giffey! Giffey! Four threes!

I'm going to lose it if he sits most of the second half.

Why, you want to humiliate Yale?

I know. I'm mocking the awkward delivery.

 

[caw]

So zero points from Daniels and Boatright = 39 halftime points and a 15 point lead. Yeah I'll take it.

Calhoun is all business trying to get straight buckets. He saw Giffey showing out ,it invigorated him. I like kromahs ball handling more than either though.

 

[HailUConn]

Haft time: 39-24.


As I commented on the 3 prediction thread:

Boat's minutes will be coming from the bench, and he will be occasional players on the starting lineup.

DD needs to be more assertive and confident while he is on the court. His hesitation and timidness in the first few minutes has cost him the playing time in the entire first half.



I am off to take my kid to Takedo class. Hopefully they continue to beat down on Elis.

 

[Jaybo]

Like seeing facey in the game.

 

[Danzz]

Bazz not looking to score in the first half similar to last year, getting his teammates involved and on the scoreboard. He always seems to shoot more in the second half. This could turn into a really ugly game in the second half if Bazz decides to fill it up.

If other players continue to produce Bazz will continue to pass!

Paging DeAandre Daniels...

I really liked T Samuel's play in this game!

It's Yale. They are taking advantage of what's there. No need for anyone to get aggressive here. I like watching Shabazz and DD hang back to facilitate things for the new players.

Nolan showed some back to the basket moves.

that's what a REAL PG does. He get his Co. involved. He knows this and this is why it makes him so great.

 

[Husky25]

The new rules were suppose to increase scoring. You know what else increases scoring? Not calling a foul on a fast break that has no bearing on the business end of said fast break.

Nothing should have been called there, but if it HAD to be it should have been an intentional

i loved nolans attitude on that post shot. he knew that kid couldn't guard him
