Message: [QUOTE="tomcat, post: 5349166, member: 961"] Impressions: 1. Serah was better than I expected, probably because of Geno's early expectation-setting comments. 2. Sarah is the existential basketball player. Whether the start of the season or the end, she just IS. And BC had no answer for her. 3. As someone mentioned earlier, BC can sure shoot threes. If they had a quality big, they would be very interesting. 4. The announcing team was not good. The guy, whoever he is, had a seemingly incurable case of verbal diarrhea. Ashley Battle was better than last year but seemed to lapse into only-slightly-related anecdotes. She's almost too conversational. And their refusal to do play-by-play was more than annoying. 5. Heckel seems to have no idea how to play within herself. If she can keep the speed but focus on the finish, she will be a valuable player. Right now, not so much. 6. Gandy is a real project, one that could take years. 7. Blanca looks like she could be the real deal, but right now she is trying to do too much all at once. 8. Based on what we saw today, Caroline is not all the way back. I hope she gets there, but I think we may be wishing for too much. 9. Once in a while, you could see the swarming defense that was the reason why UConn won its last games. It'll take them a while to get there, but it looks like the elements are there. All in all, it looked like almost any exhibition game -- a few good things, a lot of not-so-good ones, and new players who looked, well, new. It will be interesting to see how much progress is made between now and the next exhibition. [/QUOTE]
