Hamilton’s 3 at 3:29 (he said 3:30 but I like mine because it was March 29) was the exact moment I felt we were definitely going to win. And the Saunders/Wane hoop vs Brand was the defining moment of toughness and depth that I think of as well. ‘04 - Rashad’s huge baskets in the final minutes against Duk to get UConn back within reach. ‘11 - when Kemba and Lamb started jelling in the second half against Butler. ‘14 - I really had little hope UConn would beat Mich St. The stats from that game were incredible. UConn crushed them in all the areas that were supposed to be Spartan strengths. I loved Ollie’s interview with Tracy Wolfson before the seconds half. “Mich St is known as a second half team”. That’s as far as she got. “No! We’re a second half team. We’re tough. They have to try to match us”. Free throw shooting was unbelievable that run. ‘23 - I was astounded at how good the team looked at the Phil Knight tourney. Karaban’s end of the first half 3’s in back to back games were huge. They are always killers. And Hawkins 3 to get the lead vs SD St back up to 8. The portal players getting better and better as the season wore on too. There was a lot that year. ‘24 - Cam Spencer being the perfect fit for the team. The offense being noticeably better than any offense run by any other team. In the tourney it was every opponent’s top scorer being shut down. Edey was the exception but the game plan was to shut down everyone else in that one. [/QUOTE]
