I can name 5 reasons before anything else: 5 injuries Edwards is great, but needs a 6'5 post player to help her. Paige is great, but needs a prolific outside shooter to help her. KK is fast, but needs maturity to be a dynamic point guard. Shade is good, but inconsistent, Nika is great at 1 end (too many fouls though), but is not a scoring threat, so teams double up on someone who is. The bench is non-existent, so no one to come in and change the game. UConn could have lost more than 5 games, and will be have to make a great effort to reach the sweet sixteen. Nothing I stated should be a surprise to anyone.
