Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 4422627, member: 26"] IMHO there's a difference between having LITTLE OR NO OFFENSE (ie. Tennessee) and having your best players go 1 on 3, vs. taking advantage of matchup or simply "better player than them" opportunities. The first is not a recipe for success. I don't think it's that fans dislike the 1 on 1 per se - but when players drive in against 2 or 3 defenders and chuck up a shot just trying to draw the foul, that's not the kind of basketball i like to see. I think/hope what Geno is talking about is taking advantage of opportunities when it's just 1 player between us and the basket, and the UCONN player knows she can drive and score - ie. blowing past the defender for a score or a score-and-1. That is something we definitely should do. [/QUOTE]
