UConn at Marquette - 2/5/21 w Pre & Postgame

[@HOE-rv6ie]

If only Paige will be selfish, she can easily nail 50 points. But she's a natural team player that's why I like her. Many others can produce high scores but not as exciting to watch as Paige.

[@usveteran9893]

Those players that are selfish may score high but they also tend to find their team loses more as well...Paige is a true team player/Winner

[@G_Money1988]

It’s a team sport why wud she be selfish??

[@minimeminiyou1]

The good thing about Paige is how humble she is.

[@GoodFang]

The whole UConn team recognize that Nika was the player of the game. ❤️❤️❤️

[@j.w.971]

Nika is my 2nd favorite player on the team

[@j.w.971]

@Bella I've noticed that she's becoming a fan favorite and maybe more popular than page

[@guywerb]

Why can't I just stop thinking about Curry when I see Bueckers drain threes as if it was the most natural thing? Impressive.

[@raey3838]

I know! She plays like Curry.

[@erics9213]

Her shooting form is so natural its ridiculous. Running jumpers with body control are awesome.

[@pteddie6965]

Yeah, guywerb. I'd like to hear what Curry has to say about Paige's game, wouldn't you?

[@dukinald]

Exact same comment i made in another thread about PB5 playing like SC30😜

[@Whizkidsoo]

Her motor to cont. to run to get her shot plus her ability IQ to get the quick release... baby face killer!

[@teyj-tx7wr]

Game actually starts 25:30

[@CroaticusMagicus]

Best defensive game this season by far, lead by Nika Muhl. Perfect example of how her energy transfers to her teammates - everyone was playing better defense, especially toward the end of the game and the end of quarters, when Nika got winded - everyone stepped up.

[@pteddie6965]

Enthusiasm and energy/hustle is contagious, isn't it Croaticus?

[@CroaticusMagicus]

Yep, it sure is! The same applies in all parts of life, where teamwork is needed - the most obvious is in team sports.

[@FangKnows]

@@CroaticusMagicus Have you alerted fellow Croations about Mika's success? They would be Proud

[@CroaticusMagicus]

@@FangKnows :) You know I did! Unfortunately not a lot of people follow bball here, especially W...it used to be different when we were good, long time ago. I'm one of the few that never stopped watching NBA, been following WNBA ever since I found out about it (13-14 years ago), and NCAA shortly after that. Been Huskies fan since day 1 :)

[@FangKnows]

@@CroaticusMagicus it's east to like UConn, he brings in the best people that are great players. Looking forward to Nikas career.

[@oseibroni3732]

I think Nika Muhl is one of the best point guards on the team. And she is a good defender too.

[@erics9213]

She's getting more skillful each game, less mistakes, more helpful to flow the offense and complement Paige.

[@staleeahcleveland1506]

so is Paige Bueckers so don't try it period.

Paige is a once in a generational player, girl is so intelligent humble\killer instinct (dianna) w.movement off ball, (curry), get her own shot,(maya) efficiency/unselfish(Sue) I said it all yr versatility(Stewie) can flat out 🏀, but can we talk bout Westbrook, she’s gorgeous (team photo) model shoot 😉 and she balls, 1 thing I like bout no fans is being able to hear her a few times w. Blocks “gimmie that sh**” & classic And1!! I watch every game, I like nikas progress, it’s interesting what geno said w. Paige, wonder what geno said to azzi fudd recruiting. Lastly this comments all pre game but Minnesota showing up I expected this from Paige no cap maybe not the Pt’s but what bout her fellow MN jalen Suggs killin it for Zags.

[@msp5138]

You are joking, right? How long have you been watching women's college basketball? Did you see the Arkansas girl score 37 points and be the best player on the floor? So is she a once in a generation player too...lol

[@savsav5264]

Dungee can score and go off Paige will play her pace lettem match up again and we’ll c what happens.

[@derekwilliams5915]

That was a very competitive game. I like the way UCONN handled themselves. Marquette is like DePaul, they really wants to beat "UCONN".

[@roxannecayton3121]

thank you for the update...uconn is the best...love you all😘😘😘

[@stanwebb3480]

The Freshman Transition to UConn Players has unfolded right on our screens in such a short time and a small number of games!!! In a way, the schedule that was originally posted did not come about is a blessing in disguise because there were some big games at the front of the schedule that would have tough to win.... But now this team is gelled and playing on all legs!!! Great Luck Ladies Huskies vs South Carolina!!!!!

[@johnwagemann8578]

Anyone in basketball would have to love "4 freshmen and one high school player" on the court at one time and winning the game! Teenagers are stereotyped/labeled by many, but the UConn players are showing that they can perform exceptionally well. Watch number 5, 10 and I think 3 are all teenagers.

[@user-pv6gc6sr7z]

That incident with edwards really threw me off I hope she feels better

[@sethuramanmookanambalam3388]

Paige is doing what she is capable of. One or two games in the beginning I felt like she's bit tight. She is now in her elements and all can see the results. Keep up Paige.

[@MKJ2DAY]

Paige's 3 ball lookin real Reggie Miller-ish! Even her defensive stance #babygoat

[@Whizkidsoo]

Now post game analysis Paige is doing exactly what geno asked... nika and Williams makes Paige more of a star. Tbh nika honestly almost had a quadruple double so many steals/deflections the fact you can have her run the point with 3 great ball handlers. When more attention against stronger competition on Paige either nikas 3s drop or Williams can always go off then you have liv/evina/Edwards playing at a high tempo oh and there missing Anna this is a scary team if they can defend like they did today. Their effeciant offense but UConn is known for that hard nose defense and they brought it today some miscommunications here and there but overall defense was 💪. Oh and shoutout to the HS/2wk college player saylor for getting her first bucket. Let’s show up for SC and go huskies

[@jocrib7781]

What about Aubrey she’s pretty dominantly

[@jocrib7781]

Dominant

[@Whizkidsoo]

She played real well last two games she needs to come back fully healthy from injury and she’ll be a key player for sure

[@corycarter4689]

Paige is so great.. Once her defense catches up to her offensive ability, she will be the most dominant player in college basketball and maybe the wnba

[@erics9213]

Good game all around for both teams. Marquette is a good shooting team and scrappy on the boards. UCONN tightened it up in the 2nd quarter on defense and on defense. Would like to see the other Freshman have more playing time in the end, not just with 1 minute to go. They will have their hands full again with S. Caroline on Monday who gave Arkansas a run for their money. Can't wait. Mulh is getting better each game. Liv had a good game. Good team effort.

[@descartes1000]

Think about the fact that these girls have 3 more years.

[@pamagee2011]

I have thought all season that Evina was the more natural point guard but I really like Muhl at the 1. They are kind of positionless on offense anyway, and Muhl at the point lets Paige and Evina run off screens for open shots.

[@erics9213]

Nika has good guard agility and ball handling. Very quick first step on a drive . . . just needs to finish or get fouled. Like the was she fights through screens. With a little more shooting form, she'd be dangerous.

[@bbraithwaite772]

...damn....Paige looks so smooth on the floor 🍇🏀🔥

[@taylormilton3]

Thank you!!!!!

[@johntatum1951]

Everyone is playing well..hope Edwards is okay..the Taylor girl should get called for targeting on that one. Congrats to Nika on the 5 steals..awesome!

Why can't I just stop about thinking about Curry when I see the Buckers drain three times as if I was the most natural thing also?

[@bbwng54]

Does Nika remind anyone of Jen Rizzotti?

[@davidschulz9707]

You picked a good player to compare her with. Tough, and never quiting while on the court. And a very clever passer.

[@aliboyaliboy6825]

big thanks

[@mb042]

. Why does geno need to keep his starters for 35+ mins in a blowout game. Come on give the freshmen a chance

[@erics9213]

Yeah, I'm kinda bothered by that too. They need more playing time during blowouts. What's the deal?

[@pteddie6965]

MBE, I think that everything that Geno does is directly connected to the end of the year tourny. He thinks that his starters and the first players to come off of the bench need to play together and gel more. Those other players are going to have to earn more PT by kicking butt in practice. They have to force the coach to play them and that's going to be hard on such a talented squad.

[@savsav5264]

They basically have a 7-player roster with two injured players at the moment. Three of the freshmen see significant time and the one isn't ready to play yet.

[@richardjones3365]

All these girls are amazing, but what Paige is doing is other worldly. She is a smarter, better shooting version of Magic Johnson for the women's game. And she brings as much excitement as he did, if not more. I've never seen that from a female player.

[@adamkeener6106]

Nika reminds me of pre-injury Caroline Doty. 😀

[@abcdefgigklmnop5526]

Just watched this matchup with Marquette, with 2:11 left in the game the second best team in the Big East is down by 30 points to UConn. Other than UConn the Big East’s women’s basketball program sucks!! And as long as UConn’s coaching staff stays intact all the other teams will always be playing for second place. With 7 freshmen on this team and a solid Ohio State transfer coming along with another four highly touted high schoolers (Fudd included) heading their way who in the Big East has a chance to beat them….nobody!!
