Numbers with this team is confusing. Martin has a higher FG % around the basket than some of our great UConn finishers too I found out the other day. So yeah I'm not sure. Our offense seems to be good because we rebound the basketball really well.
I think that game is called volleyball, sometimes we are great at that. In the second half of the Nova game, we got serious, played with a different mindset, far more effective on offense it seemed when playing at a faster pace. Unfortunately, the full court press exposed Sanogo. Jay adjusted to the turnovers that the press created. We had no answers to that with our big in foul trouble.
If we could have dropped the press for a zone at times we might have changed the rhythm of the serious back-downs against Sanogo. Nova can do these deep backdown as good as anybody. What have other coaches done to deal with Nova's offense, give up the 3's and hope they are not making them?
