The Uconn Huskies Have Silenced The Critics And Are The 2014 Champions
First of all I want to say congratulations to the Uconn Huskies for fighting their way through the brackets and winning the final four championship game last night on April 7, 2014. The Uconn Huskies led by Shabazz Napier jumped out to an 18-5 lead over the Kentucky wildcats in the beginning of the first half.
Napier proved that the Kentucky Wildcats zone defense would have to extend itself to cover him, when he busted a 3 point shot 8 feet behind the 3 point line on the unexpected wildcats to stun them in the first half. Then an excellent spin around under the basket reverse layup by Ryan Boatright took the Huskies to a 25-10 lead and put him in the highlight reel on sports center today April 7, 2014. The Uconn Huskies were on an offensive roll and their experience was evident. The Uconn Huskies led by as much as 15 points in the first half, and the wildcats literally cut that lead to one with 8:13 left in the first half. The huskies also managed to put a lid on Aaron Harrison so he had no chance to shoot a spot up 3 pointer on them like he did Wisconsin. Click the link to view the video below.
The Uconn Huskies Gameplan In The Second Half Proves To Much For The Wildcats
Kevin Ollie literally had his work cut out for him when John Calipari switched the Kentucky wildcats defense from man to man to a strong zone defense. Once Calipari made this game changing move the wildcats literally managed a 10-0 comeback and had the huskies rattled and making careless turnovers left and right. To end the first half the wildcats had literally climbed back into the game at the half.
Kevin Ollie frustrated and in disbelief called a timeout and Shabazz Napier of the Uconn Huskies jumped off of the bench from taking his 2nd half rest, and hyped his teammates up by saying "You guys we have to play hard this is about how bad we want to win, so how bad do we want this game guys?"
Even though guard Ryan Boatright rolled his ankle with 9:00 minutes left in the 2nd half he came back in the game after uconn took a timeout to finish off the wildcats. Ryan had this to say about why he re- entered the game after he rolled his ankle: "I've got a lot of heart and I wasn't coming out," Boatright said. "We put in too much work all year for me to give up on an ankle sprain."
Ryan boatright literally ended the game strong and single handedly shut down shooting guard Andrew Harrison throughout the whole game. Shabazz Napier shut the other twin aaron harrison down holding him to 3-7 from the 3 point line.
The Uconn Huskies Bring The Win Home To Connecticut
It was literally war on the court as the kentucky wildcats kept attempting to comeback in the second half. James Young literally posterized Amida Brimah with a powerful one handed slam dunk in the second half and the kentucky fans went crazy.
However no matter what the wildcats did the huskies had an answer and they literally fought their way through to the end of the game. Shabazz Napier was named the "Outstanding Player of The game and he deserved it guys. Napier literally led his team scoring wise and leadership wise on the floor and I must applaud him for that. He never rushed any shots he tried to keep his calm demeanor and tried to keep running their offense no matter what the wildcats were doing.
Even when the wildcats were giving the Uconn front court fits around the back board Napier kept running plays for his big men, he never gave up on their scoring abilities or the coaching scheme coach Ollie had set in place.
Again congragulations to the 2014 Uconn Huskies they deserved this win because they played hard and they left everything on the floor.
