Message: [QUOTE="awy, post: 5097128, member: 13496"] they had these quick 3 plays last year but didn't heavily focus on them. the way this roster is constructed, it's a favorable way to play. ideally it's a one-two punch with the half court stuff and you can ensure both explosiveness and resilience. but i think the strategic importance of favoring 3's more is that it's a way to ensure teams that rely on individual creation of 2 point jumpers won't ever be able to beat this team. i'm thinking of cooper taking 23 shots and scoring 25. just from a court geometry stand point a high feel guy like coop is more effective at reacting to cutters and doing help defense around the rim, which could deny the potent uconn weapon of easy layups. but a quick offense that exploits the entire team's defense and conditioning will limit the impact of an elite help rim defender.
