FEED REED!!!!

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Diarra was HUGE down the stretch with those stops.

Excellent carrying this momentum for the rest of the week before MSG. I’ll be there!

Not impressed with that win, but i am impressed with how happy I am compared to a few hours ago

I bet that chat room was a blast the first 30 minutes of this game.

 

[SaeHusky]

The game turned when they stopped playing novas game and started making nova play UConn’s game.

Thats what they need to do from the onset. Stop letting teams dictate to them and start dictating.

The game turned when Reed went into the game and we had a beast in the low post

 

[blkknight1]

wasn't AK sitting for a good portion of our run?

I think so. JStew took his place got some run.

 

[Hoophound]

Add Stewart to that. When he came in the game things changed. He brought something and he usually does.

 

[temery]

Eight turnovers for the entire game doesn't seem right.

 

[ColchVEGAS]

10 minutes of really good basketball to end the game. Build that confidence on the defense end and the shots will start to fall again.

Season was on the line and Tarris and Liam said we're not going out like this.

Earth to Danny, you have Tarris Reed on your team and he's really big, really good at scoring down low, and really good at rebounding.

It's insane that people were arguing all season about what was obvious all along. Reed is one of our best players, he's been that since he dropped 20 on Memphis, keep him on the floor, involved.

 

[YearoftheHusky]

Gross. Glad Hurley wins close games.

 

[TheHorde]

I love me some Reed down low and not past the three point line up high

 

[Hunt for 7]

I bet that chat room was a blast the first 30 minutes of this game.

Yup guilty as charged!

 

[HuskyHawk]

Huge game from Liam and from Reed. Diarra was solid. Johnson was even pretty good. Alex is hurt or sick or something. Can’t be playing so many minutes until he’s himself. Team showed heart coming back but more importantly after the Seton Hall disaster the executed everything very well. Made the passes. Just solid close out basketball.

The mojo glass of Laphroaig came out down 4 so ended up +11 on the night. Guess I need another bottle. It’s almost empty.

 

[ninety-nine]

Phew. Still in the hunt.

 

[Deepster]

So here’s a truth.

Alex was the fifth option on offense the last five minutes.

 

[Leebo]

This team will be in a dogfight, whether they face a 1 seed, or the local rec team.
Let's just hope they start to fix some of the little things.

I just died a little inside.

The world is so much more tolerable with a win!

Even when we were playing so badly early on it was noticeable in the first few minutes he was moving much differently than the last bunch of games.

 

[IndyLives]

Say what you want, but this team has heart. They always come back when down during a game or after a Loss. Tonight they closed the deal with authority!

Reed absolutely man'd up tonight. What a beast with a gimpy ankle.

McNeeley back to form.

Diarra hasnt looked this healthy in a month.

Still on track for a 20-22 win season and a 6 or 7-seed.

3-Peat Dream lives on!! Let's Go!!

 

[Hoophound]

Reed has to be a major pillar of our offense. It seems like we haven’t played to our strengths all season. When we do, you see that we can create matchup problems too. He’s huge.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

The game turned when Reed went into the game and we had a beast in the low post

When he’s on, that combo of strength and touch is so enticing.

 

[TRest]

Tough, gritty win and I’ll take it simply for the bragging rights over the Nova alums locally. Liam to Hoss is a nice combo.

Weak stripeout effort at XL but that’s no surprise.

The AD has to realize we can never pull that stuff off.

 

[SportsFan88]

Whewwwwww

 

[Dibbie]

Season saving win but more work to do. Dance ticket not punched
