Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 2909907, member: 6620"] I agree not only with the "so many new players" but the "many players." Q is something of a mad mixologist when he's throwing in different players to do everything from full-court pressure to dropping back to a zone on defense, while all the time launching shots ... fast. That said, it takes a bit to see how what ingredients work best and doing that on Oregon's home court is probably too much to ask, particularly when playing against a team led by "Cool Hand Sabrina." This could be a run and gun game for the smart-board set: look at this outlet pass; here's a 3 on 2; and, how about that drop pass to Boley for a three! On the other hand, Syracuse will also run the break and Tiana Mangakahia might raise her game here, particularly given the help she has once Ohio State transfer Kiara Lewis and super frosh Emily Engstler come on court. (I've seen Engstler play in person and she's tough as nails and has developed a nice outside touch.) As the season comes on, I'm looking to see how those three get on, aided by French players Kadiatou Sissoko and Maeva Djaldi-Tabdi, both of whom are over 6' tall, as is Engstler. [/QUOTE]
