Good god. Haith was right at the beginning of the year. We're not a good shooting team. I guess we've known that but Shaq (when healthy) has masked this deficiency wth his crazy drives

Smith is the only person who showed up played. Down by 8 and looking bad. Like SEOK bad.

13 points...

damn thats rough

Defense is playing as good as can expected.

Shots will start falling.

To have scored only 13 points and be down only 9 isnt all that bad.

If we are going to just pass around the perimeter and play 4 and 1 than we might as well put Wood in there who is our best 3 point shooter. Hide him on defense with a zone.

T-town, UCONN is not playing us that way. We simply have lost our aggressiveness on offense and are settling for the outside shots. Even when we get inside we can't hit a layup and when we get to the line we can't hit those, I think we are 2-8 from the line right now. 9 year olds shoot a better % from the line. When Shaq does drive no one moves to the space created by the help D so there's no one to pass to. When Shaq and Juice aren't hitting the mid range shots, hell, they won't even take them right now, we struggle big time.

When you can't shoot from outside the defense has no reason to come out and unpack the middle.

This is Doug ball type numbers!!
I have to agree, put in Wood. He will shoot everytime he touches it. No one but smith and Curtis is will to pull the trigger and Curtis can't hit the broad side of the arena! Smith has kept it respectable....barely.

We need to figure out a way to get open shots and make them. One good pick and roll in the first half.
Really worried that we are going to see this as fans the rest of the year unless Woodard comes out of his funk. No one else can carry us.

Can't be intimidated by the big guy inside. Need to take the ball right at him and draw fouls. This game is far from over. UConn doing very little on the offensive end. First five minutes of second half are crucial.

I would bet Shaq's ankle is just too banged up he won't be able to cut like earlier in the year. Without him or Woodard, doesn't look good for the rest of the season.

This game isn't over, but both TU & UCONN are 2nd half teams. I expect UCONN to shoot better in the 2nd half.
We will have to play much, much better to have any chance to win.
