Message: [QUOTE="Mister2, post: 2578146, member: 8504"] Sorry, I don't find the math comforting at all. The UCF game is not a good example because UCF is a relatively inferior team. I do not believe UCONN has completely adressed all the issues related to a slowed down game (whether by own or opponent's design) against a quality team that was not having a bad shooting night. Once you reduce the effectiveness of one of UCONN's most lethal weapons (fast transitional scoring that leads to devastating runs), games could become a lot more difficult to manage. I am not saying UCONN won't still win such games, but the MOVs would probably be reduced to much less comfortable levels. And if one or two things happen to go wrong (e.g., KLS or Pheeza or both having a bad shooting night), this is how I envision a loss by UCONN would occur, if at all. The bottom line is that, for some reason, I detect a tendency for UCONN players to take less than great shots in a slowed down situation. And for the life of me I couldn't undertand why the number of KLS's shots would go down as a game slows down. [/QUOTE]
