He said it about the Olympic team, but it is one of the keys about how UConn breaks down, wears down, exhausts opposing teams:
“I don’t want to know what we’re doing next,” Auriemma said. “Because if I don’t know what’s coming next, the other team certainly doesn’t know what’s coming next. I don’t want to be predictable—every time the ball goes here, we’re going to go there. No, when the ball is passed there by some of our guys, they may go there, they may go there, they may go there, they may do this. Doesn’t always look good, but when it looks it looks great.”
For Team USA women, the element of surprise fuels dominant offense
