Message: [QUOTE="Pharos, post: 4274684, member: 9295"] Defense the UConn way will, obviously, be super key. Offense with a twist might, hopefully, get UConn super free. Looking at the shot chart for the Louisville/SC game, LV took a lot of mid-range shots and made a high percentage. Leading to the conclusion that SC doesn't defend those very well. Over the past couple of games, UConn has had good (and timely) success with the mid-range shooting approache. I posted this earlier: If you look at the shot selection data (ESPN), UConn (PB and Azzi Fudd in particular, but CW, too) they switched from 3s to mid-range and the shooting percentage went way up... almost double I want to say. I think they'll get these openings against Stanford. And they did. My thought is: why not begin looking to exploit openings for mid-range shots, and, as the game progresses and as SC's defense slumps in, begin to take open 3s when available. [/QUOTE]
