Message: [QUOTE="SCGamecock, post: 2033857, member: 6132"] I would be surprised if Coates and Wilson are on the floor together for a large portion of the game on Monday.. they start together, play a few minutes then the rotation typically starts. Then they start the 2nd half together... unless Coates and Wilson on the floor together proves to be some kind of significant mismatch you won't see it for long stretches. Wilson will likely play 35+ minutes if foul trouble doesn't get in the way. Wilson can definitely play an entire game, she has already this season. UConn will get drives to the basket in this game. Our interior defense has been a nuisance the entire season. Our guards are tall, athletic and long... they are much better perimeter defenders in my opinion. UConn is also very long and stringy with KLS, Collier, and Gabby.. so I can see them occasionally sagging down on our post players to deny the entry pass, which is the key.. don't let the pass happen because if it does it's going to be either 2 points or foul shots. UConn will be UConn. We already know what they're going to do.. they're not going to change anything all of a sudden for SC. The key to SC keeping this game close or possibly winning will be the bigs staying on the floor and whether we can get anything offensively from Gray, Davis, Cuevas-Moore. SC has to move the ball around and reverse it if needed.. if we fall into stagnation and start forcing entry passes then I can definitely see this going the way of the Duke game where literally every entry pass we made was turned over by Duke.
