1. 4 or more players hit a 3. (Anna, Evina, Christyn, and Paige)
2. Improved FT shooting. Mainly ONO drawing fouls and converting from the line.
3. Elimination of silly fouls.

To me these are three things the team will have to consistently get better at for the remainder of the season.

Going to add (forgive me...) that they need to shut down Park-Lane. Even though she's not playing tonight, I feel she can still score on UConn's defense, which needs to improve big time.

I like Olivia & Edwards post play, Aubrey & Mir's effort plays, Paige's poise, shooting, and play making, and Anna's overall play and shooting. Thrilled if this game is more of the same. The improvements I'd love to see:
1. Olivia making her foul shots
2. Olivia taking 2 or less outside shots
3. Evina & CW making open shots more reliably
4. Something good to happen for Nika
5. A bit earlier/larger role for Aubrey & Mir
6. A couple cameo minutes for Gabriel
I think Aubrey and Mir bring a natural energy and intensity that helps in empty gyms. I'd like to see some of that defensive pressure try to rattle other teams in the second half of the 1st quarter and get us running. If we are settling for deep shots early in the game and not making them, I'd love to try these twins earlier than the 2nd quarter appearances.

1) EVINA HAVING MORE CONFIDENCE IN HER "OWN GAME" AND LOOKS TO SCORE MORE
2) ANNA BEING MORE AGRESSIVE, TAKING MORE 3 POINT ATTEMPTS
3) AUBREY GRIFFIN COMING OUT HER SHELL AND GIVING A 15 POINT, 10 REBOUND GAME OFF THE BENCH

I don't know much about basketball but for me:
1. ONO and CW showed marked improvement
2. Westbrook and Nika have some offense
3. Edwards gained more minutes and be a starter option.

1. I want to see Geno go off on a bad ref call and watch CD hold him back. 2. Paige make a half court shot at the buzzer to end the first quarter. 3. Liv make consecutive free throws.

We have been eagerly waiting for #1 and #2 for 2+ years now and have yet to see it, hopefully tonight is the night.

Actually, I would be happy with one of these.

1. ONO, under pressure, finishing consistently at the basket and making foul shots.
2. All players prepared for or anticipating a pass/assist from Paige.
3. Learning if Aubrey has the desire to try and the ability to make a shot.

You realize that opposing teams are shooting a mere .14% from 3 pt range against UConn, right? 3pt defense can't get much better than that!
Yep, I'm aware. In my defense the title of the thread was something like "what do you want to see tonight" when I made my post. No idea why the title was changed. But, based on their win over Nebraska, I think 3 point defense is something we'll need tonight.
