This season could be the greatest season ever for UConn WCBB. There are no bench warmers. Every player is at the highest level. The one thing that this team has that no other team has is a number of great skilled athletes and 4 who can play under the basket. For the first time in a long time we have tremendous depth in the post which wont hurt us if we get into foul trouble. That depth could start for most teams but that depth has a personal purpose and that is they are putting the team first so that they can be develped and be part of a National Championship Team. For them it is about playing for a great team, not having a great player who the team plays for.
We have the nucleus of last years team back. That is very important as the chemistry, ability to play together and the cohesiveness of the team is in tack. The underclassman will learn the system and learn to play within the system as a unit and not play as individuals.
We have scorers and we have shooters but most importantly we have defense. With our height and depth underneath we will be able to put more pressure on the ball and the perimiter.
So lets break it down. We have the best shooter in WCBB in KML. We have 6-5, 6-4, 6-3,6-3,6-2 all athletic, all shot blockers and all who can score. Playing them one on one is almost impossible. Defenses will find it very difficult to defend this team one on one and if one player is double teamed....well leaving somebody open would be very costly. We dont have to worry this season about foul trouble because of our depth and talent at every position.
So who do you sit????? Really there isnt a player on the team who should sit. We have a team of non starters who could be ranked in the top 5 in the country. Aint that somethin?
Baylor will be our only test this season and next season we have none. With out having to worry about foul trouble underneath this season we have a great advantage. We can play more aggresive. This team reminds me of the Renee Tina Kalana team that won every game by double digets. This team could supass that. This team has no weaknesses. They are on the same page. They are driven by the competing with each other and playing againest each other is playing againest the very best of the best.
This very well could be a Dream Season. This team will give the knockout punch to alot of opponets very early in the game. Again Baylor will be tuff, very tuff but I dont think we have to worry about losing that game. Infact I will say right now if healthly we win it by double digets. Some of you may disagree with me but then some of you havent seen Breanna Stewart especially on defense with her instincts. This is going to be a very special and memorable year. I will miss Harriet and the CPTV crew they were great but SNY will give UConn much more exposure by broadcasting games in parts of PA NY NJ MA and CT. I hope to see you all at the games and at halftime with our Boneyard Meetings in Gampel by section 217 and in Hartford by the Trumbull St exit.
