You are a ruiner!! Ruiner! That is too rational as a solution--no conspiracy or paranoia---without that can those who dislike Geno or Uconn can they have any real life at all??

This horse isn't just dead --it's rotten. Candace Parker didn't play--there is a reason (maybe)--if there is--why must we know what it is?? If Candace Parker requires an explanation at this point, she'd have to be masochist, why would that be needed except for ego??

Actually, after that first Tweet she professed she was moving on and would not dwell on it. 'Course, she had her surrogates (and/or sycophants) screaming for her. Even an ESPN article about what a misjudgment it was. Yeah, time to let the bones blow away in a desert storm.

Geno has said that he teaches his players how to play basketball. Very few set plays, however some strong fundamentals on player and ball movement, which forces the players to make decisions as the offense develops. This is not easy for everyone to do, and perhaps his reference to pass here, pass there, do what you want in the sandbox makes reference to needing players that can think, react, and sometimes predict. Not everyone can do this, and it doesn't make them a bad player, however makes it difficult to fit within the system.
Actually Geno does actually use plays-in the past he has admitted he has take nplays other coaches use and modified them for his team. In most games he uses "out of bounds" plays and set his kids up on the foul line (ala-old navy (Annapolis)) or straight across the court in line with the foul line and others.
But other than that you are correct he prefers his team to be fundamentally very good and able to "read" what the defense is giving them or what the Offense expects-and do something different.
