Message: [QUOTE="McLovin, post: 4792027, member: 9450"] Hey everyone, a quick video breaking down the keys to the match-up vs Indiana at MSG. Video: [MEDIA=youtube]jOS1g2_YN4c[/MEDIA] Highlights [LIST] [*]Indiana likely without senior PG, Xavier Johnson. This will be a big blow to them offensively [*]They are the tallest team we will face this year [*]3 point shooting will be a key to this game [*]Indiana is just 11-40 through 3 games on 3PTA [*]Indiana has allowed opponents to shoot 37-98 on 3PTA through 3 games [*]Indiana has taken more mid-range 2PT shots than 3s (a trend that plays favorably into UConns defensive goals) [*]Rebounding will be a point of emphasis for Indiana, and Mike Woodson has not bee happy with their rebounding this season so far [/LIST] Other game notes that didn't make the cut [LIST] [*]UConn faces Kel'el Ware for the 2nd time in 2 years. He is a sophomore transfer from Oregon and he scored 18pts vs UConn last season in the PK85 (including 2-3 from 3) [*]Indiana is a physical team that really trys to draw fouls. We struggled a bit with fouling vs MVSU so this will be something to watch [*]Without Castle and with Indiana's poor outside shooting, I wonder if we play some more zone than usual in this one [*]Indiana will be relying on young guards without Johnson. I think we will see Hurley put on some full court press [*]Indiana has a lot of size... do we see the double bigs from UConn (I'd guess no) [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
