Uconn vs Oregon

[JeremyCuse]

Watching this game right now, Uconn was up 7 at half but is now trailing. Odd game in that both teams seem hell bent on driving to the bucket to attempt a layp or dunk on almost every possesion regardless of whether its there or not. Both teams really struggling to hit jump shots or 3s. Adams looks good for Uconn but they have zero inside game and struggle to shoot the ball. Vitale mia and not impressed with Gilbert.

how does Larrier look?

 

[JeremyCuse]

Uconns entire offense is iso moves. 11 min left in the second half they have 1 assist.

how does Larrier look?

Hasn't done much in the second half but i missed the first half. Anderson the grad transfer seems to be playing a lot. Officiating less then optimal for both teams. Brisette could have a field day for SU wheb we play with them.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Not sure what offense Uconn is attempting to run, there is literally no ball movement. Oregon is a terrible 3 pt shooting team. Still 1 assist foe uconn in the entire game.

 

[JeremyCuse]

8 min left both teams in the double bonus. Neither team hss a 3 this half and Uconn has missed at least a half dozen layups.

how does ucon's defense look?

 

[JeremyCuse]

Game tied at 53-53, Oregon was up 5, quick run for uconn, Larrier with all 5.

how does ucon's defense look?

Typical Uconn man to man, challenging a lot around the rim but dont have that typical uconn shot blocker. Oregon has gotten some decent looks but missed every 3 this half

 

[JeremyCuse]

Really sloppy game, Oregon has literally turned it over 3 times with zero pressure, just lost the ball.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Uconns two big men have fouled out, there playing Larrier at the 5. Half there team is grad transfers it seems. Odd.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Oregon up 2 3min left

This is god awful basketball to watch. Neither team can run their offense, no one can shoot, everyone is out of control and there are an amazing number of fouls being called.

I keep watching because it is the ESPN equivalent of rubber necking a 30 car highway pileup.

Ollie coached offense is brutal.

Uconn up 4 1:20 left. Oregon is an awful shooting team.

Its really bad, honestly ts hard to watch.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Lol Oregon has to be 0-10 from 3.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Gilbert has a lot of hype but everytime I watch him he is invisible

Gilbert has a lot of hype but everytime I watch him he is invisible

it's why we passed on him

 

[JeremyCuse]

Adams is there Battle, u stop him they will struggle to do anything.

 

[SUFan44]

Rooting for UConn to win for our RPI points when we beat them makes me feel dirty.

 

[PoppyHart]

Sloppy, but it was a solid win for UCONN. Neutral court, but very partisan crowd. They controlled the tempo, it threw Oregon off balance, and that is something we have not had to contend with yet.

Scouting report--eliminate UConn's transition game, make them operate vs. a settled zone, and they will have trouble scoring. Offensively, be patient and pass the ball over their pressure.

Hate it too but it helps us
