Because UConn is horrible but our guys are playing well. Shooting over 50% and have 6 offensive boards on 14 missed shots

Great complete half of basketball by the team. We are actually running our offense most of the time which is leading to good looks and hence the high percentage. Playing ok defensively, not great, but we are getting helped by UCONN being bad and missing shots. Have to expect Uconn to shoot a bit better in the 2nd half. I hope we don't wear down. We have a large cushion that hopefully will hold up as we start to tire out.

Agau playing like he does not want this to be his final game...10 points on 3-3 FG and 4-4 FTs to go along with 3 rebounds and 2 assists. Actually had both Agau and Chargois on the court together for a few minutes

They have changed the substitution pattern today. Let's see if it allows us to play a 40 minute game. Last several games have shown that McMurray won't hold up to playing 38-40 minutes. Need Douglas to help in the rotation

Don't underestimate the impact of Emelogu finally being healthy enough to knock down some 3s!

Gu hit 2-3 threes and didn't hesitate to shoot those open looks. Love what Agau has done in low post to set Gu up for those looks. Expect UConn to make an adjustment and take that away in 2nd half

We actually have a presence in the paint the way Agau is playing.
Ben E playing like he doesn't want his college career to end today.
Fantastic half.
