Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 4094780, member: 5823"] That 's not what happened. Very early in Arkansas game Carolyn Peck of all people stated that Liv need to make her presence felt on the floor because she was the tallest player. Arkansas was doubling Liv on the block but Liv was making it way too easy for them. Liv was putting the ball on the floor and moving to the baseline side which made it easy for the defense to double because the double was now coming from her blind side. In addition to that Liv was taking multiple dribbles. A good example of what I'm talking about was 5:53 of the first quarter where Desting Slocum (not exactly know for defense) stripped Liv just about a cleanly as possible. There is no need to put the ball on the floor when the catch is in that spot and you have a smaller defender on you. Just get the ball over your head, wait for the cutters to pass or shoot the ball. UCONN game plans usually does not commit to a single player. The offense is equal opportunity and each players have got to take advantage of the touch they get in the structure of offense. This was a game where Liv did not maximize her touches because she had more turnovers than assist. Also keep in mind that UCONN had a six point lead 22 16 when Liv picked up her second foul [B]before the 1st Q. was over[/B]. That also changed the game because even if UCONN wanted to take advantage of the size advantage it could not with Liv sitting on the bench. BTW all things about Stefanie Dolson should be glorified-that woman was a baller of the highest order. [MEDIA=youtube]oJmoEI9GnCU:426[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
