Terrence Reed goes for 31 and 27 Yukon beats firm in 82.71.

They move on to the second round to play UCLA.

We'll recap this is Lockdown.

Yukon.

You are Lockdown Yukon, your daily podcast on the Yukon Huskies, part of the Lockdown Podcast

Network.

We're a team every day.

Happy early Saturday morning.

I'm Matt Shunvicki.

On today's show, we are going to be recapping the win over Furman final segment.

We're going to be talking about Alex Caribbean's second half performance in the middle of

this show.

We're going to talk about the Yukon overall assessment.

Honest take, what happened in the first half?

Where does Yukon need to improve?

What needs to happen to prevent Yukon from going out on Sunday?

What we're going to start in the show, obviously, with Terrence Reed's 31 and 27 performance.

Before we dive in, this episode is brought to you by Mazda.

We put that same drive in every detail, wins to find the moment, putting in the work that

defines you.

Stay tuned for highlights in this week's Moving the Game forward.

There's more to Mazda because there's more to you.

So Yukon kicks off their NCAA tournament first round, where the 82.71 win over Furman

in this game was all about Terrence Reed.

If Terrence Reed's not in this game, Yukon's going home and they're not playing again

until the fall.

Plain is simple.

Terrence Reed was the most dominant player I think I've ever seen in an NCAA tournament

game.

31 points, 12 of 15 from the field, 27 rebounds.

He also threw in three assists.

Of those 27 rebounds, 11 of those were on the offensive end, including three straight

there, late second half to ice the game.

Put the game away and finally finish off Furman once and for all.

In the second segment, clearly there are a lot of things that this Yukon team needs to

improve.

Clearly this Yukon team needs to address a lot of things that went wrong.

But this is the NCAA tournament.

Yukon moves on and advances to play UCLA on Sunday.

Yukon did not trail Furman by 14, like some other top seeds did in their one versus 16 matchups.

We won't name names.

I think you know who I'm talking about.

Yukon survived in advance.

That's what you need to do when a one and done setting.

I don't care what it looked like.

I care about the scoreboard and I see 82 71 and I see it all the time after performance

by terrorists read the terrorists read that we begged for.

All week.

Remember, we were sitting here.

Dan Rose trying to remember trying to pull it out of terrorists read 31 points 27 rebounds.

You can't get better than that.

And it led to Yukon moving on round a 32 matchup.

Big brand matchup against UCLA.

Old friend, Mik Kronin, who I know Yukon fans out there that are listening to this as of

this recording.

It's recording at 111 a.m. post game.

It's going to be a lot of talk between now and then about Yukon versus Mik Kronin and

what those old Cincinnati games used to do up here in Connecticut.

But tonight, terrorists read was the Elvin Hayes last one to go for 30 and 25, 1968.

So when Dan Hurley is up there at the podium saying, terrorists read is the difference between

us going to the final four and not that performance that he put on display tonight.

It's exactly what Dan Hurley's been talking about how terrorists read could be the best

center in the nation.

Nobody was stopping him tonight.

Nobody.

And he indicated post game in the on court interview with Evan Washburn on CBS.

He said, I knew when I was looking at the film, I knew when we scouted these guys, no

one was going to be able to stop me.

Now I don't think terrorists read, especially to go for 31 and 27 and go for 12 and 15.

No way, no, how?

But that's the type of performance that this team needed tonight and he stepped up.

He stepped up massively and this is a type of game.

Listen, we've talked about how can terrorists read have that confidence in himself to go

out there and do what he needs to do.

If you go out here and do 31 and 27, you are going to be confident the rest of this tournament.

And you're supporting cast outside of Alice Caravan, you can't play worse.

The supporting cast around terrorists read could not have played worse outside of Alice

Caravan.

Who we're going to talk about in the third segment.

In the second segment, we're going to talk about the poor performance of this team.

But tonight, terrorists read 31 points, 27 rebounds, 11 offensive boards and only committed

one foul.

Only committed one foul.

No stupid mistakes, no cheap fouls, no reaching in, did his job.

Exactly what Dan Hurley needed, exactly what Yukon needed and guess what, they're moving

on to play UCLA Sunday.

I believe they said 845 tip on Sunday night is when you'll see Yukon play UCLA.

On the other side, we're going to talk about, we're going to spend a lot of time on this

because I think a lot of us would disappoint in the way Yukon came out.

I think a lot of us would disappoint in terms of some decision making, especially end of

the first half.

We got to talk about that.

We got to talk about shooting.

Me, I've talked endlessly about Yukon's not going to shoot the way they did at Marquette

again.

Well, it's been rinse and repeat.

What's got to change there?

We'll talk about that after the break.

Nice episode is brought to you by Mazda.

This is Mazda's moving the game forward for those who showed as more to the score than

what's on the screen.

Just look at Terrace Reed performance tonight, 31 points, 27 rebounds, 11 offensive boards.

Its performance is like what Terrace Reed put on the court tonight.

Those performances remind us what it really takes to raise the bar.

It's an extra work off the court, dialing in every detail, giving it that extra fire,

back grit, and I never quit.

Listen, Terrace Reed, if he looked around and saw the rest of his supporting cast, could

have melted in, but he put that team on his back and did what he had to do to deliver

Yukon and Yukon Nation in the state of Connecticut to win.

Yes, it may have looked bad, but Terrace Reed's dominant performance is what put Yukon

over the top.

And at Mazda, they put that same passion into every bottle.

Highlights make the real what it took to get there and makes it count.

There's more to a Mazda, because there's more to you.

Back in on this post game edition of Locked On Yukon, a post game NCA tournament win over

a firm in 82-71.

If I had recorded this at the half, we'd be having a completely different tone, especially

with the way that first half ended.

We got to talk about that first.

You got, ball goes out of bounds, 14 seconds left.

Dan Hurley takes time out.

Sets up.

Inbound's play.

Last shot of the half.

You're up 7.

40 to 33.

And with 8 seconds left, I don't know where you're all Big E's freshman is launching a

3 with 8 seconds left on the clock up 7 in the first half.

Misses.

He missed every 3 he took tonight, 0 to 8.

In the first half, he was 0 of 7 from 3.

Let's just reiterate.

We'll talk about that in a second.

Clang's off the rim, down goes Berman, hits it 3 at the buzzer, comes 40 to 36.

Dan Hurley is just sitting there.

And the team runs off the court, Dan Hurley goes, beyond belief, stunned, stunned.

I was stunned too.

You know how Dan Hurley treats to all these inbound's plays?

This team knows how to run an end of half situation.

We've seen it, over, and over, and over, and over, yet tonight.

It just speaks to the performance outside of Tarris reading that first half outside of

him.

I was care about that 7 and a half.

So every one else, it was just inexcusable to play offensively.

Berlin Mollens hit.

I want to say four shots in the first half.

They were all two runners, mid range jumpers, just going towards the hoop, attacking the

basket, not settling for threes.

When he took a 3, he was 0 of 7 in the first half.

This entire team was one of 11 at the half from three.

Alex Caravan made the first three of the half, made the first three of the game that Yukon

put up.

Rest of the half, everyone missed.

Caravan was one of four.

Mollens was 0 of 7.

I think solo ball was over three in the first half from three.

They were one of 11 the entire half.

Without Tarris Reed, Yukon was going to be down at the half.

The performance was maddening, to be honest.

I know Dan Hurley was beside himself.

But when you looked at the stats, Yukon only committed three turnovers in the first half.

Yukon was out rebounding, Furman, 24 to 13 at the half.

But the team didn't put it together.

It was a kind of mirror image of the regular season.

Biggest tournament in terms of not living up to the moment, not being ready for the moment.

Letting on inferior team, no offense to Furman.

They're 15 seed for a reason.

They had dated, did lose, 12 games during the regular season.

But them hanging around.

And I know Dan Hurley said afterwards, I don't know how we got matched up with them.

They're definitely not 15 seed, well, they're 15 seed.

Wilkins put in 21 points, Tom House put in 21 points.

You let this team shoot 38% from three, 45% from the field.

They went to the line 26 times.

I think a lot of that speaks to Silas, Denver, Jr., was not available today.

So that had an impact on Yukon's defense, of course.

Yukon did only have nine turnovers on the night.

They had three at the half.

Like I mentioned, they had six in the second half.

So all in all, they took care of the basketball compared to what they did in the regular season.

They out rebounded Furman, 40, 40, 23.

We know what Tarris Reed did, 27.

18 offensive boards, 11 of those with Tarris Reed.

Your bench, Eric Grabba gave you nothing.

Played five minutes, four fouls, played, I think it was two minutes in the first half, two

fouls.

Make a shot, didn't get a board, didn't have an assist, didn't do anything.

Melinda was aggressive when he needed to be defensively, did force the turnover.

He did have the N1 opportunity on that crazy layoff.

Ball bouncing on the top of the backboard and drops in, counts it.

But you played six minutes tonight.

Tarris Reed, Mullins, ball, Malachai Smith, Jaden Ross.

The only players to play more than seven minutes.

We said, Rob, I had five, Melinda played for seven.

Your bench had four points.

Malachai Smith had four points.

Solo ball only had nine.

Braille and Mullins had 12.

Tarris Reed 31, as we said, Alice Karebren, 22 points, nine to 16 from the field, 15 points

in the second half.

We're going to talk about him in the third segment.

This team, if they're going to have success on Sunday, cannot shoot the ball the way

they did tonight.

I've talked over and over and over about how Mark Kets not going to happen again in terms

of their poor shooting.

This was worse.

One of 11 from the three point line at the half.

And some of them weren't even close.

I think there were a few by Braille and Mullins, even I was ducking.

So they got to get that together.

I don't know what the issue is.

Solo ball, we know he could shoot, Braille and Mullins, we know he could shoot combined

with one of 14 from three.

Malakas mid didn't try to do too much offensively.

He had seven assists, didn't try to four shots, he had one three point attempt that was maybe

ill advised.

But the rest of the time, he was more a distributor, it's seven assists, only one turn over.

All on all in 32 minutes, I think without Silas, Demory, Jr., I think you'll take it.

You scored 82 points.

But this team cannot come out against UCLA the way they came to play against Furman.

Terrace Reed can.

Alice Caribbean in second half can.

The rest of this group needs to look very long and hard in the mirror and try to figure

out how they're going to be better to go and take on a micro and a UCLA team.

That's a very talented team that got by a very talented UCF team today by four points.

If Yukon wants to make it to the sweet 16 and continue to play and continue to have opportunities

next to this team, this teammates, their teammates.

Let's carry on and wants to have another game beyond Sunday.

He's got to get this group together as the leader of this team from a player standpoint.

He's got to get these guys together.

I don't know if they're pressing.

I don't know what the shooting, the inability to shoot is because we know they're good

shooters.

They can be good shooters.

Once the calendar has hit March, we ran off the stats earlier this week.

Raleigh Mullins entered 17% from three.

He had another O of eight tonight.

What does that bring his stats down to?

Let's pull it up while we're here on the show.

Let's go to the game log in the month of March.

He's gone one of 10, one of six, two of nine, one of five and all of eight.

What's that one of 18, two of 24, three, four, four, 33, five of 38.

What's five of a 38?

Man, 13%.

This was a small sample size.

It's getting bigger now.

That's one, two, three, four, five games.

You shoot 13% in the month of March.

I don't know if it's like I said earlier this week, I don't know if it's a leg thing.

I don't know if the season's long.

He's got to get it to get it.

But when he attacked the basket tonight, he was making.

Alice Carabin came out of his slump.

Do you remember earlier this week, I said he was 15%.

Braille and Mullins have been shooting 17% from three in the month of March.

Alice Carabin was 15%.

So at least Alice Carabin came to play and with his career on the line, his Yukon career

on the line, at the half, clearly looks in the mirror said this is not happening tonight.

He had 15 points in that second half.

We're going to talk about that on the other side.

So one comment, it is 130 as I record this in the morning.

I started pretty much what, 20 minutes after the game ended.

When we not have East region games, the easternmost location start games later than you do in

San Diego.

Is that possible when we start rescheduling or scheduling in state tournament games going

forward?

It makes no sense.

You've got Philadelphia starting games later than San Diego.

Let me start in the easternmost location with the first game of the day.

So you don't have teams that are on the East Coast playing games and starting games at

10.30, they never start games at 10.30.

Just throwing it out there, bone to pick.

Someone I don't have a bone to pick with is Alice Caravan.

As we talk about him here in segment three, finished the game, 22 points, three rebounds,

three assists, two steals, two turnovers, he had a couple of bad passes there in the second

half.

I think Dan Hurley was talking to himself and then talking to Alex Caravan and the time

out off of one of them.

But you got a performance from Alex Caravan in the second half that also put this team

over the top tonight, finished nine to 16 from the field, four of nine from three.

So snapping out of his three point shooting slump.

What did we say earlier, is that Alice Caravan had been shooting 15% from three in the month

of March tonight, 44.4%.

You get this, Alice Caravan.

Can you get Silas Demory Jr. back healthy and maybe Jalen Stewart's ready to go on Sunday

as well?

This team's a different team.

This team's a different team, especially if you get a confident terrace read who looks

at his performance tonight and builds upon how he attacks games and uses this to ensure

that from here on out he's consistently where he needs to be.

And consistently what he's capable of because as we talk, Dan's been coach Hurley's been

trying to get that out of terrace read nonstop, that consistency, that top level of play,

that Dan Hurley knows he's capable of that we all know he's capable of 31 and 27 completely

exceeds my expectations.

I think everybody else's as well.

When you do something that hasn't happened since 1968, 58 years ago, I think that speaks

for itself.

And Alice Caravan, the leader that he is, did not want to go out a loser tonight.

So his career here at UConn continues.

His play dictated and indicated he did not want to go out tonight.

And now they've got another challenge in front of him.

Now they get UCLA.

Now they get dent in the rest of that team.

Now they get Micronin and a Dan Hurley, Micronin matchup, a UConn UCLA matchup.

We're going to have to look back to was in 1995.

When the bracket first came out, we talked about that 102 96 UCLA went on their way to

a national championship that year.

You can't give them the toughest game.

So this team, yes, it wasn't pretty.

I'll leave you guys with this on this post game because it is 134.

This team didn't play up to expectations, right?

They still won by 11.

You saw Terrace Reed do something he's never done.

You saw Terrace Reed do something that's not been done in what we just say, 58 years.

Alice Caravan out of his shooting slump.

They need solo ball and Braille and Mullins to step up offensively.

And maybe it's Braille and Mullins take less threes.

Maybe it's put the ball on the court.

Take a couple dribbles.

Get to the rim.

Get penetration.

Get penetration.

If something's there, hit a runner.

There's five and six from two.

The O of eight from three.

So if the three's not falling, let's try something different.

And Braille and Mullins within the flow of the game started to do that throughout the second half.

Now, solo ball hit a three in the second half.

I think it was one of three in the second half.

Finally saw one fall.

Maybe that's a start of something.

But I think as we go forward here, we talked about it as well.

Health is so important.

A healthy Silas, Demory, Jr.

is absolutely critical for this team to proceed and continue to win in advance in the sense of a tournament.

I'm going to cut it here.

We'll be back tomorrow with further breakdown.

We'll hear from Dan Hurley.

We're here for some of the players as well.

I wanted to get this up and out there and give some of my thoughts post game.
