Message: [QUOTE="BroadwayVa, post: 2275977, member: 6118"] While every argument of the cause of the loss to Miss St has some validity each point you state MAY have been a factor--they are suppositions, your beliefs (which can never wrong because it's what YOU believe). Butler in the final game at 6-5 was less effective than 6'1 Precious and in my opinion was a liability because she wasn't good with Bigs or Smalls. At times her emotions took charge and she had no idea of what to do next--that happened all season--so why did Geno use her, he knew all this--who else could he use--rarely used Molly or Kyla? --Neither was allowed much bigtime game experience--and this was crunch time. Geno was --like a twisted fastner--his depth was non existent and his prime time players had fouls and were dogged tired--why did they miss fouls they normally made?? Emotions---got to make this--and exhaustion was setting in. I could speak of the lack of getting more shots for kLS --or the need to defend further up court--but that would be whistling in the wind--To me Uconn lost this game on ONE thing only--DEPTH, short bench, no one to count on past 6th player--it will be interesting to see if Geno does not fully develop beyond the 7th person this year. 8 players are easier to work with and with loads of game time--give the coach people he can count on in the Big dance. But 8 with10 available players --means all 8 must be healthy and productive when needed ,with Mss St--they weren't. [/QUOTE]
