USA Basketball 3x3

[HuskyFan1125]

Utah has figured it out leading Tennessee 16-8 with 3 minutes to go.

I dont know why Tennessee's bigs are shooting 3's??????

 

[HuskyFan1125]

This was the MOST frustrating game to watch!!!! Utah wins 20-15.

Utah needed 2 points to win and in the last 2 minutes kept jacking up 3's (count as 2) instead of just going for 1 pt twice!!!

Tennessee bigs Hollingshead and Striplin were just shooting outside shots instead of taking the ball inside. Johnson is 6'2 and Pili might be 6'0. The Lady Vols had 6'6 and 6'3. Didn't make any sense to me!

I was ready to turn off the TV.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

On a break due to not enough teams.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Up next:

Villanova vs Colorado College.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

As expected Villanova beats Colorado College easily 21-6.

Lots of student support for the Colorado College team as the games are at their campus.

Utah and Tennessee on deck!

Utah was abysmal in their 1st game. If they don't figure out their guard play Tennessee should win.

Yeah, Utah looked horrible in that 1st game.

Gonzaga looked solid in these games. Villanova was fun to watch as well. In a few of these games, shot selection mattered. Holy smokes. I think it was the Gonzaga/Utah game. Utah struggled to make a shot.

And we are back at it

MTSU vs Duke

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Duke beats MTSU 21-14 in a quick game!

Duke making high level shots and looking good still.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Seton Hall vs winless Indiana next

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Indiana just looks out of sorts.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Scalia comes out hot and Indiana has tied it

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Sydney Parrish looks at the referee every time she shoots asking for a foul.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Seton Hall Beats Indiana 21-17 to move to 3-0. Indiana drops to 0-3

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Seton Hall and Duke move on to tomorrow.


Maryland vs Ole Miss next

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Maryland leads Ole Miss 14-12 at media timeout.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Ole Miss beats Maryland 21-18 to finish pool play at 3-0. Ole Miss is just athletic and all 4 players can score which makes a difference.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

St Johns vs UCLA on deck

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Media timeout and UCLA leads St John’s 14-4. Best game UCLA has played.

Not sure how this bracket will play out if UCLA wins because 3 teams will be 1-2

 

[HuskyFan1125]

UCLA beats St John’s 20-9

Londynn Jones with 10 of UCLAs 20!

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Utah vs Creighton on deck

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Fran Fraschilla was a guest commentator and he was very knowledgeable on the women’s side. Brought up history of women’s game, finally mentioned Kara Lawson and Duke, Courtney Vandersloot. Very entertaining. He kept the announcers in the women’s lane.

Also talked about 3x3 rules and how when a shot goes up everyone should crash the glass because there is no need to get back on defense.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Alissa Pili is so good around the basket.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Creighton beats Utah 21-14.

The Utes just need a quality guard.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Gonzaga vs Tennessee next

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Fraschilla also mentioned how college teams put these 3x3 groups together in hopes of developing talent and chemistry.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Media timeout and all tied up at 12

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Gonzaga wins the pool by beating Tennessee 21-18 and finishing 3-0.

Gonzaga and Creighton advance

 

[HuskyFan1125]

20 minute break due to Pool d only having 3 teams
