Message: [QUOTE="gtcam, post: 3364336, member: 2844"] Love the kid but from where I sat - behind the UConn bench - he was horrid last night and many times both Dan Hurley and TM were shaking their heads at what he was doing, not doing to be precise. I think they were hoping he would have the ability of harnessing his hype of playing in MSG but the lights were too bright last night. He will turn it around. Nobody had a great night except maybe Sid. Akok was phenom when he was in but until he learns to cut out the fouls he is hurting the team but the kid is unbelievable - quickest reactions of any UConn player in a very long time The guards were off all night and forced way too much Polley did some positive things but his man on D was bad and didn't really move enough to get open looks at times JC had some really nice movement but again wasn't aggressive in shaking off his man and was ineffective on D in the second half This was a game that was very winnable in so many ways but until UConn learns to play hard and smart the full game - results like this will occur IU plays very aggressive D and that bothered UConn all night. There is a better level of talent on IU in the first 10 players vs UConn its not the end of the world but victory was there to be had [/QUOTE]
