 Not shooting the ball well.  No shot unless we can shoot better. Their length is affecting is big time. GG has no shot against Oriakhi and Drummond.

saying pointer shoots a line drive would be an understatement

We're doing pretty good, so far, on the defensive boards.

I like Gift getting it a little farther out and trying to use his quickness vs having to deal with UConn's size in the post.

It's true.  Even that first drive of the game he faked the guy out of his shoes  from the 3pt line.

We NEED to start guarding the 3.  Our rotations are slow today.    Granted, Lamb hit that last one from Maine, but still.

We played some good defense.  That was just a tough shot by Lamb. 

I also think GG can get by those guys, as they are jumping up on his pump fakes.  Just continue to attack the basket.

They are the best 3-point shooting team in the conference.  They've also hit a couple of long and tough 3's.  Hopefully, they cool off.

Another deep 3 by UCONN.   This is becoming one of those starts.

UCONN is hitting their open shots, we are not.  Danger zone here...would like to cut it to 6 by the half.

UCONNs a good shooting team, but they usually only take 10-12 3's a game.   They've shot 10 already today, hitting 5 of them. 

Interesting to see if we come out of this timeout playing man..
