Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 5194544, member: 833"] UConn didn't have a point guard or really anyone looking to pass inside. UConn had 10 assists on 26 made baskets against Creighton, and Reed was 3 of those assists. Against Marquette, with Diarra still semi-healthy, UConn had 16 assists on 25 made baskets, and Johnson and Reed both had good games. Don't blame their lack of scoring on them if no one gets them the ball. On defense, it is pretty simple. If the perimeter defense is playing better, our centers will foul less. If it isn't, the centers will foul more. The issue with Creighton was compounded by having to defend one of the best centers in the country, although most of the fouls were in help. Reed just kind of stunk it up defensively against Creighton. I wouldn't make a strategic shift every time someone has a bad game. [/QUOTE]
