[MTHusky]

Jordan played limited minutes, is he hurt?

Foul trouble

 

[Dove]

Yes, butt hurt

 

[uconnsouth]

He must be in the doghouse

 

[Kenny11]

Not mad at all about the tech. That was a BS college ref move by deciding to call a touch foul immediately to start the second half because uconn got a lot of free throws in the first half. It was predictable and what turns me off from college basketball

 

[navery12]

What did Hawkins even do to get the tech? Assume he said something but it looked like he was just standing there

 

[superjohn]

He played himself out of the game. Hurley knew he didn't need him and was in teaching him a lesson mode.

 

[Northbound]

4 fouls early second - grab some wood bub

 

[AZHuskiePop]

They were a well coached team but our athleticism and size overwhelmed them .
Jackson is a game changer , if he started flying I wouldn’t be shocked .
We literally got nothing from our alleged two best players and made a bunch of mistakes and still won going away.

 

[husky8273]

perhaps a teaching moment from DH after getting the T

 

[bigknight3]

We don't know what was said. Hawkins had to take some responsibility but screw that ref!

 

[AtlantaHusky]

3rd bass he's going pro jinx!

 

[jibsey]

We don't know what was said by him.

 

[Waquoit]

Not being a wiseass, but he's not physically injured? Confirmed?

 

[Palatine]

Nice for Hawk to learn a lesson like that in a win.

 

[UChusky916]

Easy to shrug off now because we won, but that foul call (minor grab off ball, happens every play) and the subsequent tech were bull$....
Officials were obviously trying to even out the foul discrepancy, despite the fact that Iowa State were bodying our guards all night.

Officials were not great most of the tournament.

It’s a good lesson for Hawk. Some refs are sensitive, you can’t give them a reason to take you out of the game. I’m sure it won’t happen again.

 

[Hi-Low]

Why would anyone think Hawk hurt? 4 fouls to start 2nd half and that was it for him unless we needed some points late in a close game...it wasn't close so no reason to play him again. There was nothing physically wrong with him unless his legs fell asleep from sitting so much.

Can't really opine until we know what Hawk said. Unless it was egregious, the ref blew it.

 

[Gurleyman]

I don’t think he was sending a message so much as not putting someone back in the game late who was that cold while we were protecting a lead against a frenetic defense. Since he sat the last 10 minutes of the first half, he hadn‘t played at all in over an hour (other than 10 seconds of defense). If he comes in cold and turns it over a couple times, he could help take them off life support.

Why would you say there is no reason to play him? He is one of the best players. He deserves to be on the court unless he is hurt or in the dog house.

 

[Icehawk]

In the replay later you can clearly see he said something to the ref... I'm guessing he said something with blue language and got called for it. By the body language it didn't seem like he was really barking at the ref more like a "hey man that was a bs call". Jordan should know better but that was a whole series of weak fouls called.

As was said in chat and here, DH didn't protest so whatever was said clearly qualified for a T.

No point putting him back in to be honest once he sat - not much of the game left and by the time you normally would have considered it we'd locked it up. Definitely don't want him in during garbage time tonight.

He had 4 fouls 20 seconds into 2nd half. You can't play him with 4 fouls until maybe 5 mins left in game. I assume DH was saving his 5th foul until crunch time if we needed a big shot...we didn't and the team had a good flow going.

Did you watch the game...

The players on the court fought hard, defended multiple attempts at runs to cut out lead and deserved to be the ones who closed out the game. Not that big of a deal.
