St. Johns defended him perfectly. The forced him to put it on the floor without the ability to pump fake (which he can't do), and he was unable to ever get around his man. Polley and Adams are like utlity baseball players, you start giving them tons of at-bats with starters gone, and you see the warts. If Bouknight is here, those 2 aren't nearly playing the minutes they are. Hurley has to keep it together until James returns. With that being said, it was discouraging to see them give up drive after drive playing man. I would love to have seen some zone worked in, if nothing else, to give St. John's a different look. St. Johns get easy basket after easy basket with no pushback from UConn at all defensively. [/QUOTE]
