Or maybe if Paige and Azzi are healthy our Offense will be too great to handle?

Defense does not win championships. Overall play wins championships. Didn't Iowa also shoot the best fg% than anyone else vs SC? That doesn't matter?

And no way UCONN should play zone unless as a strategy vs tough opponents unless vs maybe a specific team or two which is a huge maybe. Arguably UCONN will have two players among the top 5 in all of basketball in which they are guards that are eilte shooters. So, the idea should be to give them the most shots as possible in the open floor (ie a running game) as much as possible. Why would UCONN want to slow the game down by going into a zone which woudl allow the other team ot slow the game down which ultiamately will give both Azzi and Paige less shots/ and/or chances in the open floor?

Paige and Azzi's number 1 calling card are their Offensive capabilities. And probably the 4th best player on our team next year is Caroline Ducharme and her strength is her offensive capabilities.

So why would UCONN want to slow the game down by going zone?
