Hamilton is a beast

[intlzncster]

That is all.

[breezy]

He's been "out of sorts" per the commentator.

 

[intlzncster]

Apparently so is Lavert. Christ that kid can ball.

 

[boog204]

This is the second time this year where he almost posts a triple-double and I'm thinking that he actually didn't play his best. That's scary.

 

[superjohn]

Hamilton can play a little sloppy/look out of sorts and still mess around and get a triple double. Special player.

 

[Migs]

Huge game, hitting big shots when we needed them. That's a baller.

 

[Rocktheworld]

He will definitely be on the national radar after this tournament. Should eat the Cuse zone alive tomorrow.

 

[AtlantaHusky]

Most important player we have. And that says a lot.

 

[Silk31]

And he did all this with his favorite lob partner parked on the bench for much of the second half.

 

[Dogbreath2U]

He made some big shots and seemed to "grow up" during this game. He looked pretty calm and confident when he hit that 3 to push the lead back up.

This entire team is very Confident, right now.
I think in their minds. They think they are truly the best team against anyone.
This team is so much fun to watch. No hero ball just good basketball.
A lot like the san antonio spurs play. just keep passing until you get a good open shot.

 

[gtcam]

He has the whole package and the most amazing thing is I feel he is only 50% of where he will and could be.
Even though he was a little sloppy with the ball tonight (I think the humidity came into play), his handle this year is so far beyond where he ended last year.
He is UConn's best all around player

 

[art4life]

Love the mid-range Jordan-esque shots.

My goodness, we've only seen scratches on the surface of how good he is!

 

[CAHUSKY]

I think it's pretty clear he's going to be our "go to" guy this year. The only time we were really challenged in the 2nd half we immediately went to Hamilton who calmly hit a sweet bank shot to stretch the lead. Kid is amazing.

Yup and he shows a knack for making those shots repeatedly. He's a cooler.

 

[Mots010]

Last year he was front rimming those mid range shots. They're going in now, and he's nearly unstoppable.

 

[Tenspro2002]

I hate to say it, but I don't think he's going to be back here next year.

 

[Bonesbrigade]

He looks bigger for sure too...he is almost bullying players his size and smaller. His mid range game is becoming seriously intimidating.

 

[Ripper32]

He would be dumb to leave from a developmental perspective but we see it all the time.

 

[intlzncster]

I hate to say it, but I don't think he's going to be back here next year.

Why? That means he's going to have a really good year and UCONN will vie for a championship.

Well, that part will be great, of course.

He's a unique talent and I wish I could have more than 35 more games to watch him in a UConn uniform.

First world/blue blood problems

You know guys do develop in the NBA right (and actually better than they do in college?) http://espn.go.com/nba/insider/story/_/id/10588150/nba-why-nba-develops-players-better-college

Jeez I hope you are wrong on this. The extra year didn't hurt Ray or Donyell but the NBA has changed since then.
