Message: [QUOTE="JoePgh, post: 4144365, member: 1131"] All of you people who are so eager to send Christyn to the bench should ask yourselves one question: who else does UConn have that is capable of defending a fast guard? (Don't say "Aubrey" until she is back on the floor!) That alone probably justifies 25-30 minutes for Christyn even if her offensive contributions are zilch. But they aren't; she scored 8 first-half points against Louisville before going into a funk in the second half. She will probably always be inconsistent on offense, but her defense and hustle are constant. And by the way, to those who said that van Lith's open 3's in the fourth quarter were Christyn's fault, I watched the replay, and you are wrong. Van Lith was Caroline's defensive responsibility, and Caroline Ducharme just didn't stay attached to her on either shot. Geno attributed that to mental fatigue from having to play too many minutes, and I think he was right. [/QUOTE]
