Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 2898205, member: 2117"] The players aren't going to be easy to replace, but UCONN has the pieces to do so. I don't see Walker or Williams being as strong defensively as Nurse or Gabby, but they bring their own skills to the table that will suit the team well. I'm guessing Williams will be much better off the dribble and getting her own shot, skills we never Kia show at UCONN. Walker will be a better shooter than Gabby was, although there will be dropoff. Look for other players like the returning Big 3 to step up their game as well. Every year important players are lost and others step up in their absence. I don't see this team being as good as the 2017-18 team, but I think most top teams will have a dropoff after the 2018 class graduated. And while I dont think UCONN runs the table like they nearly did last year, but I think this team is still a strong title contender and should be preseason #2. [/QUOTE]
