Okay. Up 11 at the end of Q2. I would prefer a bit more, but I will take it.

So, should Paige take half the Huskie field goal attempts or more than half ?

Featuring Nika at halftime, "the unsung hero." What a defense she's thrown at Fair.

What are they talking about during the halftime show?
"Syracuse outrebounding Connecticut 9-0 on the offensive boards".
It's 9-5 Syracuse in offensive rebounds.

Aaliyah has been taken to the floor a few times tonight. Game has bordered on out of control for awhile.Paige is just putting on a show !

The line I like? 1-6 (0-2) 2 to's. That's the job that Muhl did on Fair in the half. A Jeffersonian effort.
There's an old saying that bookies don't pay for halftime scores. With todays prop bets that is no longer an issue but Fair can go off anytime. UConn needs to keep picking their zone apart.
A "teammate award" to Bueckers for continuing to feed Brady inside despite zero pts. (PS I'm a huge Brady fan)

ICE isn’t coming close to the hoop but she needs to keep shooting. She will be needed going forward.

Ice had 2 or 3 possible scores, missing an easy out-of-bounds put in, and a couple of plays under the basket where she needed to go right up, regardless of consequence. When she brings it down, it's a turnover and that's a bad thing. But if she goes right up, it will get blocked, she'll get fouled, or she'll score. 2 of those 3 things are good.

shooting has gone cold for UConn. Good shots, just not dropping

Terrible 3 rd qtr. Geno can't wait to call TO

With a TV time out coming anyway, Geno doesn't want to blow a timeout. Sometimes it's better to give up a couple of buckets than lose a TO when you need it at the end, to advance the ball or stop the clock....

Game of runs. Need UConn to have longer scoring runs and Syracuse run of scoring droughts.

And just like that... the lead is back to 7. and Syracuse takes a time out.
the defense on Fair has been excellent. Just hope Nika doesn't get too tired. don't expect her to score today.

good idea, KK, but, take a page from Sue Bird, and make that a fall-away pop-up jumper

Need to play better defense on Fair. Can't let her get confidence.

Shade picked a great time to find her touch again from 3. At the buzzer!

With around 1:10 to go in the 3rd, Nika and Paige double Fair and knock the ball away. It clearly went off Paige's knee out of bounds. There's no possible way she didn't know that. And yet, she pointed toward her offensive basket, trying to convince the ref. to make the call go her way. And, if the ref had agreed with Paige and there wasn't instant replay, UConn would have had the ball when it shouldn't have.
Everyone in the whole world does that, right? We all do. I sure do. Hmmmm..... what are the moral consequences of what we think is okay in sports?
