April 8, 201412 yr Are UConn fans saying Kevin Ollie won with Calhoun's players? I bet Calhoun is saying that
April 8, 201412 yr I know we have been talking about the Harrisons not being able to handle UConn and the pressure D. The Harrisons had 7 turnovers combined and Napier and Boatwright had 7 turnovers combined.

The Harrisons had 7 turnovers combined and Napier and Boatwright had 7 turnovers combined. It's not about the turnovers, they couldn't get any penetration or get inside of the defense
April 8, 201412 yr Not read the entire thread but my take - 1. Free throws 2. Inability to run a SET on the offensive end to exploit mis-matches 3. Free throws 4. Inability to run a SET on the offensive end to exploit mis-matches
April 8, 201412 yr Also it seemed they just didn't have that same energy as earlier games. Maybe playing all those close games finally caught up to them
April 8, 201412 yr I thought Dakari missed some really easy opportunities early, then disappeared. Thats all on Andrew IMO. Andrew Played with his back to the defender and basket almost the whole game, hard to get it down low when you can't see him

Johnson spends much of his time out around the top of the key trying to set picks, and he is not a good pick and roll type of player at this time. Lee would have been more effective in the pick and roll, but he kept getting lost on the defensive end while he was in the game.

His quickness on D and O would have helped a lot along with his shot blocking presence in general.
