Message: [QUOTE="nastynatty, post: 4266381, member: 11900"] I watched the Stanford/Texas game as well & while they looked really good and came out with a win, they definitely didn’t play a perfect game and showed some weaknesses. They struggled a bit with Texas’ press so I think UConn’s full court pressure will have to be an emphasis for the next week. Brink has a tendency to commit cheap fouls so I say feed Liv the ball at the start and go at her. She’s a good shot blocker but she’s gonna have a hard time blocking Liv who is an inch taller and built very similarly (aka long). I’d match up defensively with Paige on Wilson, Azzi on Lacie, Christyn on Lexie, Aaliyah on Jones, and Liv on Brink. Lexie and Jones are the biggest offensive threats they have and Christyn and Aaliyah have consistently proven that they are worthy of drawing the most difficult defensive assignments. I think Aaliyah can similarly bother Jones like she did Maddy Siegrist in the BET final. Plus, Jones might have a hard time having to guard Aaliyah all the way down in the post with AE’s physicality. Overall, should be a great game with some interesting matchups. [/QUOTE]
