Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 4270425, member: 3535"] IMO the Offense was "forced" in search of an all-around scorer when she stepped up. I think now that the offense is flowing more, CD isn't as efficient as PB or . Isn't the passer either. SO if she isn't hitting her shots, she isn't helping PB or that much. Instead she is taking away shots from them. She did get layup chances vs UCF but she missed them both. Had the same type of 2 layup attempts vs Indiana. These are quality teams and in 8 minutes she was able to maneuver for 2 layups. That’s pretty good. But then she went against NC State had a wide open 3 and she didn't come close. Then I think she made a beauty drive and was expecting she'd get it up on the rim which she has such a great knack of doing with a touch but NC Sate seemed to sniff out exactly what she was trying to do and easily swatted her shot out of bounds. I think it was NC State. And I just attribute this to experience. The better defensive teams are going to sniff out what she likes to do. Because overall their team defense is why they are that good. I just think if her shot isn't falling, you can't play her significant minutes in hopes that she "might" get hot. There are two players on the floor that are more efficient than her that need the ball. So it comes down to her vs CW and CW has a ton more experience and is a projected 1st round WNBA pick. And Evina and Nika can pass better setting up the guards. So when she comes in, she better hit her shots. UCONN can’t afford to wait like they were forced to do earlier in the year. Next year things will be much different for her provided she is more efficient shooting which we expect. [/QUOTE]
