[MirrOlure 14757]

I do t care how fucking tall you are it’s easy to block a shot when you karate chop the guy in the neck with the other hand

[MirrOlure 14757]

Looks like very big drop off from Carr and Rice.

Need more Weaver

[shadow_operative 15932]

great follow from mitchell. love the effort.

[texastroubadour 1210]

I just love the national tv embarrassment

 

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

Out rebounded really just means our hustled. Uconn hustles and blocks out and we stand and stare and try to out jump guys.

[shadow_operative 15932]

uconn has 29 points in less than 10 minutes.

Is anything that happens in college basketball in November really “national” though?

[kingkoopa6 8344]

WHWRE THE FOUL!!!!

Give him 3 shots!

[shadow_operative 15932]

mitchell already with 11 and 5 on 5/6 shooting including that beautiful turn around fade away just now.

[dcar00 14148]

not gonna tell us a whole lot without Disu and Shedrick but Terry is going to have to coach his ass off cause the deep shooting is gonna be rough methinks.

Mitchell looking f'n smooth out there. So much more confident  compared to last year. Dude is gonna make some money. 

[perfectchaos007 6621]

We have no answer in the paint.

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

Holy shit this offense sucks. On the ball screen with 3 guys standing around. No off the ball movement as we watch uconn run a real offense and ramming down our throats.

Huge missed call on that Horton 3 where he was hit on the arm.

Espnu isn’t National. Most people aren’t even watching.

[chemHORN 1239]

So far this is about what I expected from what I've seen out of us so far this season.  Plenty of time to try and gel and improve this season but this team wasn't ready for UConn yet.  

[ballrific 215]

Let's not act like Beard's offense wasn't similar to watching paint dry at times.  But yeah, these last couple of games have been a little concerning. Let's hope just early season lags and we're not opening up the playbook/sets yet...yeah, we'll go with that.

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

Omenymauea needs to get back to third string quick.

I'm more worried about the defense.

[dcar00 14148]

horrible.  secure the damn ball.

I get we all need to shit on beard but he ran a great motion offense with off the ball movement. It’s old school but Hurley at uconn is as old school as you get. Off the ball movement isn’t sexy as everyone going and 1 and one on one bullshit. We stand around and wait for a pick for a three or that’s it.

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

Onyema is meh as is and RT has to ask him to play 3x more minutes tonight than he’s conditioned for.

We're saving the good plays for texas st. apparently we're saving up our effort also

[Pancho 44687]

Wow, just got his pocket picked.  Mentally, not there tonight 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

They are title contenders, and we are not. We knew that. They have cooled off from three, just keep hanging around and let Max get hot.

We look like a team that doesn't believe it has a chance.

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

Good grief. One on one terrible shit shot. This is embarrassing.

[jimmyjazz 45878]

I don't want to see the rebounding stats.  Holy shit.

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

Dan Hurley is a dick but a damn good basketball coach. Recruits to his system and kicks ass at it. 

[dcar00 14148]

we are lost on D.  15 is probably not where we should be.

It’s not as bad as you’d think, surprisingly 

[Horn80 6114]

Mitchell looks good.

Agreed. Unless disu and shedrick can stay healthy we look like a team of role players

[VirginiaLonghorn 4767]

We’re putting on quite a clinic on how not to play defense .. beginning with the simple box out.

Took him 5 years to win a tournament game at UConn.

I bet it is on the offensive boards.

[dcar00 14148]

on the bright side Mitchell is looking like he wants to get drafted on something other than potential.

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

As bad as we look on D, we could be firmly in this game right now with average backcourt shooting. 3/16 from that group.

I still don’t see where he plays in the nba without a shot from further than 10 feet

[VinyVango 684]

Mitchell showing some improvement … Abmas is in way over his head at the moment and needs a to calm down and play like the 9th year senior he is

Lots of contested shots.  Drive and then Nowhere to go with the ball.  

[UnhappilyMarried 815]

MSG rims are awful every year when we play here. Shot like dog shit against Illinois last year too. 

[ClubWhatever 12120]

We fucking suck at pick and roll defense.   Which coach is supposed to teach that?  The white haired dude?
