[QUOTE="Doctor Hoop, post: 1965929, member: 6845"] I hate to pile n all the negativity. I keep watching these games anticipating that suddenly it'll all come together, 40 minutes of UConn ball. 3-4-5-6 stops in a row. Defense without fouling. A recognizable offense that steadily generates good shots, without forces. Blocked shots and fast breaks, fast breaks that are finished strong. However... Recall that last years second half improvement came when Purvis came off the bench. I like him. He plays hard, is solid defensively on the opponent's best perimeter player, and from the guard spot hits the boards. But he doesn't handle the ball well, has only limited success finishing drives, isn't a knock-down shooter, and doesn't see spacing on the floor. Often when Adams is mesmerizing the defense he could slide to a more open spot ready to shoot, but doesn't. The team needs basketball smarts, and more than just Adams to step up when it's on the line. Facey and Vital show it in spots, but not consistently. Purvis rarely does. At this point I've seen the most from Facey. He needs to become Robin to Adams' Batman [/QUOTE]
