Geno's take: “The three of them were our biggest problem, and I say that in a good way,” Auriemma said. “They were trying to win the game by themselves without involving the other two guys, and you can’t play three against five. You can’t have three of our guys being guarded by five of theirs, which is what was happening. So we kept talking all game about [how] we have to involve all five players, and once Megan made a huge three and Christyn made a huge three. Once we got them more involved in what we were doing things started to loosen up a little.” “There should be more interesting games [like that] for us as the season goes on,” Auriemma said. “Not every game is going to be we score 100 and the other team scores 50 and we all live happily ever after. Some games it’s going to be a struggle — it’s going to be a struggle to get shots, and it’s going to be a struggle to make shots. … If you’re going to be a championship kind of team, you’ve got to be able to win all kinds of games. We just as easily could’ve just lost that game instead of won that game. [B]But we made some big, big, big plays[/B] in the last five minutes, and that was the difference in the game.” [URL="https://www.courant.com/sports/uconn-womens-basketball/hc-sp-uconn-st-johns-in-second-game-of-paradise-jam-tournament-20181123-story.html"]UConn women pull away from St. John's in final minutes for 65-55 win[/URL] [/QUOTE]
