Texas vs UCONN- 6pm on ESPNU

[Js1 85259]

I’m not really impressed with Abmas yet, despite the shot yesterday 

[kingkoopa6 8344]

Damn. If you got white boys that can ball. We in for a long night 

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

That’s what a ball movement and man movement offense looks like with three point shooters and big men that can pass. We swing it and shoot threes or play street ball. Uconn might repeat.

[Rickylovesweed 14262]

No shot in this one if we can't hit open shots. 

[perfectchaos007 6621]

This is looking like a wire to wire win for UConn. We need Shedrick and Disu to make this a fight 

[Js1 85259]

I had hoped we would have pursued Cam Spencer harder in the off-season 

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

I don’t remember the last time we started a bigger liability on defense than Max 

[kingkoopa6 8344]

WE GOT WHITE BOY TOO!!

Someone mentioned that to Gerry the other day and he said the Spencer dream ended once Hunter announced he was coming back.

[Rickylovesweed 14262]

There we go. Finally somebody hits an open shot. 

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

I wish we had more off the ball screens with cuts. Everything is on the ball with a pop or a weak roll. 

[Hookem2147 21188]

Abmas is so bad defensively 

[kingkoopa6 8344]

O MY 

[VinyVango 684]

Abmas is so bad defensively 

He’s yet to find his outside shot too.

[dcar00 14147]

defense is atrocious so far.  gonna take abmas a while to get used to this level of comp day in/day out.

[shadow_operative 15932]

this just in: dillon mitchell can jump high.

[MirrOlure 14756]

So this Abmas guy CAN shoot and make baskets in ordinary offense sets, right?

You know…open jumpers?

[Js1 85259]

This is going to be ugly 

[shadow_operative 15932]

we gonna give up 100+ points at this rate.

Having to play Brock/Mitchell/Oyema at the same time to rebound just fucks us everywhere else. Not enough consistent offense and can’t switch on d. Oh well, at least we won last night and can use today for an SOS boost. Season starts when Disu is back.

No Shedrick tonight.

This might not be pretty.

Looking that way.

[Blotto 23485]

Glad i took the Over in this one. Uconn might get there by themselves.

[The Ace of Aces 5175]

This so far this year looks like it might end up being the worst defense Texas has had since Tom Penders roamed the sidelines.  

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

Our transition defense is fucking terrible. 
 

We’re gonna have to get fully healthy before we have any clue how good we can be but right now this team isn’t a top 25 squad.

[ClubWhatever 12120]

We are really bad setting screens.  They don't even have to work to get over them.  

[Gut Wagon 8065]

No size, no rotation, no jumpers falling: a tough night against a top team playing well in front of its crowd. Try to hold them under 95 and stay within 20. 

[Js1 85259]

I see a team missing a lot of chemistry and leadership and energy/swag that we lost with Bishop, Allen, Carr and Rice

this level of comp night in night out is going to be tough on him.  the D end is gonna bleed over to the O end.  Hopefully he figures it out.

[Revolution512 1487]

Rodney has some real holes on defense? Roster and strategy

Not going to get to freaked out yet when the two guys we are missing put up 28/7 and 28/10 in the last games they played for us. But yeah our transition D is brutal and we're getting physically dominated right now. 

[kingkoopa6 8344]

Damn white Boys 

[LonghornSean 3989]

Of course they can’t miss from three

[kingkoopa6 8344]

They got like 3 JJs

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

How many times do we say this every game?

I would say it’s not hard to make wide open 3s, but we make it look pretty challenging

make it 120.

[TexArcher 37761]

This is fine.

[Pimphand 5732]

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

So uconn can play two white guys at the same time and play good defense and rebound but we can’t? Uconn runs a real offensive system and we’re confused as fuck. Uconn is gonna win by 30+

[kingkoopa6 8344]

I want a couple white boys that hit 40%+ from 3. That’s what you need in college 
Kansas always got 1 or 2 of them 

[VinyVango 684]

Abmas was supposed to be the glue on offense … with him still searching for his shot coupled his below average defense, we are going to have some bad nights against tournament level teams until he can be a net positive on the court

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

They are shooting 75% from the floor 80% from three

[Majorcholas 508]

Early returns look like we might be mediocre this year

[kingkoopa6 8344]

You smarter than that Brock. Come on 

[VinyVango 684]

When we are featuring Cunningham trying to score iso, we are in trouble

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Trying to decide which is worse our offense or our defense

[VirginiaLonghorn 4767]

“Don’t bring that shit in here …”

Looks like very big drop off from Carr and Rice.
