Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 4170885, member: 5823"] Very timely thread [USER=8375]@CTtoSanDiego[/USER]. There are a few alarming things about the UCONN 3PT shooting lately 1) Quite a few of those shots were uncontested 2) That many uncontested deep shots leads me to believe that is what the defense is conceding and UCONN is taking the bait by hoisting that many deep shots aka UCONN is playing to a weakness vs capitalizing on a strength. [USER=1131]@JoePgh[/USER] while your observations regarding KLS and Evina are hard to argue with my perspective is that with Freshman KLS UCONN could afford to shoot 39% for the season because among the other 4 starters there were 4 very reliable 3pt shooters + a 6 person ( Saniya Chong). Saniya would be the second most accurate 3PT shooter on this team by a fairly wide margin. Over the last 6 games the UCONN 3pt shooting has been poor= 25% or 36/142 3 of 15 Louisville: 5 of 20 Creighton: 11 of 34 Butler: 8 for 25 Xavier: 6 of 30 Seton Hall: 3 of 18 Oregon I would not be advocating for any individuals or the team to be hoisting more three pointers at this point or even when Paige and Azzi return. :eek:As Geno has said on many occasions some players are wide open for a reason.
