Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3098091, member: 5798"] I agree, the only problem with playing with that kind of intensity is YOU MUST have a bench that can/will support that kind of play. UConn does not have that. If Geno had employed that kind of intensity for 40 minutes, the starters would have been spent by the middle of the 3rd quarter. Did you notice how freely Leggett-Jet subbed her players in an out to keep them fresh, and protect them from early foul trouble? [B]She used 5 reserve players from her bench.[/B] [B]Geno used one.[/B] We can only suppose/assume he didn't trust anyone else off the bench under those circumstances. The games get tougher from here, and the quality of the opponents increase. Don't expect to see any of the reserves (except ONO and maybe Coombs) except in garbage time from here on.
