Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 4459774, member: 1414"] Your hypothetical is missing quite a lot. For example, if you gave me the Celtics, I could beat UConn. Handily too. If you gave Popovich the CCSU roster, he would have no chance. McDermott will give you the closest thing to an answer when we face Creighton. My guess is he'll leave Jackson somewhat alone, and probably Alleyne, Newton and Diarra as well. He'd cover the paint and Hawkins and dare others to beat him. We haven't show we can do much damage from outside other than Hawk and Joey (and sometimes Alex). But the bigger problem is scoring against UConn. A lot of our offense comes from our defense, and there are few answers to that other than "don't miss shots". We are vulnerable to a Teddy (NM State) type of unconscious shooting performance. [/QUOTE]
