Post by: real chili 83 on February 07, 2023, 05:17:59 PM
Get the Wahl clippers ready.

Muggsy, you know the drill. You ready?

Oso gets Sanogo in foul trouble, and is SOTG.

We won a game with Newsie in town last weekend. We can win this one too.

Go Warriors!!!

UConn is on pace to shoot 100% from 3.  Doubt that’s sustainable
Title: Re: UConn game thread
Post by: wadesworld on February 07, 2023, 05:38:22 PM
OMax desperately needs to develop a move off of the straight line drive. And Kolek needs to find a way to drive right.

I don’t think Oso’s head wasn’t in the game against Butler. I think the passing lanes are smaller.

Good energy to start, now settle in and get good movement and shots on offense. OMax gonna have to bring it

Offense is woof so far.

D has been great aside from the dumb Omax foul.

2 buckets were because of our offense giving transition and the 3 was a complete prayer.

Speaking off Omax dumb foul, he also needs to wake the hell up on O

First thing to do is fix something now.   No one can hit a shot and he’s had a lot of guys in.   Defense.  Well UConn shooting 71%.  That can’t last.  Rebound - we do not crash the boards.

I think that was the first time this year I saw MU lose the starting jump ball. Omen? Don't be superstitious. UConn came with energy right out of the gate. Hit so many threes and easy layups. Ouch. And then the bench came in. I would expect Smart to wait longer but the team is used to short segments to stay fresh. Jackson. Jackson. Wait until Sonago gets going. and they're rebounding and putting it back. Truly an ugly start.  Don't panic. Defense will turn this around. Go on a run. Cut down the lead. Guys with 2 fouls? I don't care. You can't take them home. Fight even if you foul out.  I don't expect these kids to call for the bus at the half. It's not over. It's never over. The back court pressure is affecting MU and that surprises me. I know they want to run but they can get it up and get good shots if they move the ball. Rushing it to score quickly. Patience. Creep back.

As for the game - Fitting end the half. This is us versus Baylor where everything is going nearly perfect for UCONN.

Great to see Ben Gold make an impact. Oso lack of outside shooting really challenging us as teams are dropping off him at the elbow and just quick first step doesn’t matter as the defender has enough cushion.

I'm encouraged by the last 4-6 minutes of the first half.  We could have clawed this down to 10 or 12 with a few bounces going our way.

And then they hit the 3 before the half.  As Verne said, "What a way to finish." 
But MU is not done. We'll see what MU is made of. Some say it's a road game or it doesn't matter. It does. Fighting to stay on top, fighting to win is mandatory.  Respect doesn't come easy. It will take an outstanding effort in the 2nd half. I expect to see a MU win. They have enough energy. Get some shots to fall.  Get fouled. Get it close. Steal it.

I love this team.   MU is losing to a ranked team on the road.   I am not worried about it in the macro sense at all.    But, it is a fair critique until it isn't anymore.    It has been discussed ad nauseum in actual non-game threads.     Scoopers convincing themselves this year is different.     And I believe it will be.    But right now, during this game, Farley has an opportunity to gloat.    Can't take it personally or seriously.

Dan, it’s the boards.  With 12 minutes left, UConn is doubling MU in rebounds 32 to 16.  But its offensive boards UConn 15, MU 6.  That’s nine extra possessions and also a morale thing with players getting pounded. 

Along with putrid three point shooting and UConn hot, recipe for disaster. It happens

UConn has at least half of their offensive rebounds just standing there - horrible effort from us.

It really seems we don’t make much of an effort.

Crazy theory, but maybe this team follows Scoop’s lead.   Maybe the team reads Scoop in Dec and Jan and start to believe they really are a great team.  So by the time they get to Feb and March they think they can just coast through the end of the year beating everyone.  As they start to struggle they read the rationalizations and excuses on Scoop and just keep believing it’s all fine and there is no reason for concern.  Then suddenly it’s round 1 of the tourney and they get smacked by 30 points.  🤷‍♂️

I said weeks ago if OMax doesn’t start rebounding with consistency this team is in trouble.

At this point, if he doesn’t start doing anything with consistency the season could be in trouble. He defends mid sized guards/wings well, but that’s not enough.

This years team needs him.

Stevie and Ben, and even Sean minus that awful decision to shoot a three, have brought it. Well done outta them. Very difficult to win when Oso and OMax are more than just non-factors. They have to be smarter and stronger. They have proven they can, so let’s see how we react after three off games including this clunker.

I'm a little concerned that Oso and OMax are gassed.  Kolek will be too if we don't manage his minutes better - like why is he in a game we are down 20 with 3 minutes left.

Not sure if you’re serious about the gassed part, but if you are, I think OMax does it to himself. He exerts so much unnecessary energy and is always playing catch up. It does takes it toll. As for Oso, I have no idea, but he sure seems less focused or interested lately. It’s probably because he is always so strong at being both of those things. Hopefully his intelligence will allow him to adjust to how he’s being played defensively. I think he can.
