Teams that penetrate and attack the basket get fouls-teams that pass the ball around the perimeter and jack up 3 point shots all nite don't

People ask me if I am going on making cheesecake pictures now that I'm a star. My answer is that as long as there is a boy in Korea who wants a pinup of me, I'll go on posing for them.

That nic 3 was from 25 ft and meant as a statement dagger based on momentum and where he pulled up from. It was like a team heat check. When it went through, you knew he'd be fired up

213 exploded when Nic hit that 3, and 213 doesn't get excited about much.

Yes, it has happened three times. Strange, but I'm not complaining.

Nic is an emotional guy; that's all part of the package. That said, I don't mind the celebrating, but he's been guilty of some really stupid emotional fouls in the past. (Credit to him though, although there was one last night, the number is way down this season.) At the end of the day, I'm really glad he's on our team.

Nothing wrong with an occasional over the top celebration. Hitting a guy in the face like happened to the Villanova player last night was excessive display.

I sense that UConn was trying to get into Nic's head and get him to get off his game - starting with the foul that resulted in the pile up of players. Following that event, I thought there was a good chance that Nic would immediately make a silly foul. It did not happen (like it did last year when he was frustrated w/ HOU at the AAC Tourney and in the LOU game). Seems he is controlling his emotions this year.
