UNCASVILLE - Connecticut Sun head coach Rachid Meziane didn't hold back.
"I appreciated a lot of things last night. Tonight, I will say that I hated a lot of things: how we started the game without good energy, and we didn't respect ourselves," Meziane said. "I want to say skills, but we don't respect ourselves. So yeah, for me, the game was over at halftime."
Just 24 hours after the Sun played one of its better games of the season and defeated the Chicago Sky, it suffered one of its worst losses in terms of effort, falling 89-64 to Golden State at Mohegan Sun Arena.
Sure, the blowout was the second game of a back-to-back for Connecticut, yet the Sun's shortcomings went beyond exhaustion.
On Wednesday, the loudest cheers inside Mohegan Sun Arena were for the opposing team's former UConn women's basketball players. The next loudest roars came as a collective groan when a Sun player missed a pair of free throws.
