Message: [QUOTE="victor64, post: 5170227, member: 7101"] Thoughts from reading this thread: 1. Resting your starters against a team with one win in a weak Big East makes sense to me. 2. With Paige and Azzi encouraged to hunt shots, Sarah often becomes the third option. Judging strictly from body language, she seems to have no issues with deferring. I am guessing she will be quite prominent in big games. 3. Ice does not have great hands. If she caught everything like Sarah does, she would not be frustrated with her playing time. 4. Only 11 FTs which oddly seems to be a little more than normal. UConn has morphed into running a dribble drive offense with kickouts to shooters at the three point line. Teams are attempting to stop this by fouling the heck out of the dribbler and mugging the post player. In theory, this should lead to more FTs. The data shows this not to be the case. I would bet this is near the top of Geno's concerns. 5. I like watching the nonstarters play. This means Ash and Morgan are on the floor. If there were ever stereotypical "UConn" players, these two play like it. 6. Inexperience or time away isn't Jana's problem with layups. It is mental. Like a talented pro golfer who struggles making two foot putts. 7. This isn't a final four team yet but if they stay healthy, they will be. [/QUOTE]
