By the way, check out the videos on Thabeet as a passer -- those really surprised me. Totally agree about Thabeet on offense — doesn’t know how to “go after” the ball, doesn’t go up strong, and isn’t using his physical abilities as much as he should.

My observations from up high at Wachovia Center.... UConn can't keep digging holes and crawling out of them..... Thabeet has very little heart, he lets smaller and more physical players take advantage of him and push him around.... UConn had a huge advantage down low and failed to cash in...... Adrien is a warrior, a load, and plays his heart out. He is a great rebounder and why Calhoun sat him down on the last Nova freethrow miss is a mystery to me. I said to my daughter sitting next to me, "he's putting his top rebounder on the bench, hope they don't expect Thabeet to get this rebound." He didn't, Cunningham rebounded his own shot and sealed the affair. BAD COACHING MISTAKE! ..... Adrien kills UConn on the foul line. Thabeet never comes to the ball on offense. Doesn't present himself at all...... Scotty Reynolds is the key to Nova's success.... He can win games like yesterday as long as he doesn't get out of control. Beautiful jump shot and an uncanny twisting penetrator..... Wachovia Center is 10 times louder than the XL Center.... UConn students should try attending home games.... Many of them show up dressed as empty seats. I made the game through an intense snowstorm in the northeast. My observations from up high at Wachovia Center….
