So we are getting into crunch time and we have to get everything organized and ready for next Sunday so let's start it out here. My top 3 things I want to see are:

1) Aubrey

2) Ice

3) Our Big 3 all clicking at the same time with Paige taking 20 shots.

No more missteps, no more playing without a sense of urgency. Let's Go!
 
1. Ash’s consistency
2. Jana shows us a bit more good than bad
3. Morgan doesn’t stumble,fall, or miss a bunny

Azzi showing some killer instinct.
Aubrey. Boy, does she ever add toughness to the way the team plays.
Jana getting better, making the bunnies and staying out of foul trouble.

Ice is out 3-5 weeks with a shoulder injury
 
1. more total rebounds.... + Jana action on the glass.
2. Balanced scoring from at least 3 of 4 Huskies: Paige,
Azzi, Sarah, and Ash.
3. Fewer miscues; take your pick = bunnies, passes, excessive
fouls, or a favorite flavor of your own choosing!
 
1. Five players in double figures.
2. Jana dominating in the paint both offensively and defensively.
3. Aubrey is back and healthy, doing "Aubrey" things.

I will take a different stance this week.

1. St Johns play tough defense to help prepare UConn for SC
2. Jana and Aubrey play meaningful minutes together
3. The big three play 28 minutes or more. Conditioning will be necessary for Sunday and beyond.
 
1. Let’s outbound them.

2. Aubrey Griffin will hopefully play. Very important player for the South Carolina game.

3. I don’t really want to see the small ball lineup that much. So, I am talking about a lineup of Strong, Chen, KK, Shade, Azzi, Paige. Some combination of those 6. I personally don’t want to see it. Not against saint John’s.
 
1. Paige accounting for 40 total points (her points plus assists)
2. KK's continued PT and growth
3. Jana making the close shots at the basket
 
1. Officials calling the bumping fouls that Jana gets every time she touches the ball.
2. Paige play like the Freshman Paige when she won the POY/FOY.
3. Shut down defense from the beginning to the final buzzer.

practice crashing the boards
Offensive
Defensive
Total.
we must win the rebounding battle now.

Bumping in the post is rarely, if ever, called. Imagine if Uconn men's center Adama Sanogo got called for his bumping last year, that was his whole game. Pushing with arms extended gets called but not bumping, so don't hold your breath on that one
 
Execution
Poise
Paige take charge and lead

That's funny, they call Jana all for it, but don't when it is done to her.
 
Rebound
Interior defense..giving up 42 points in the paint to Tenn is terrible..what will they give up to SC
Toughness..the whole team
 
In addition to a big win and no injuries:
1) Aubrey back, playing significant minutes and having a real impact
2) Jana taking a very real step forward in all areas
3) Paige, Azzi, Sarah, Kaitlyn and Ashlyn (heck, everybody) finding or continuing their shooting touch
3a) big improvement with rebounding and converting layups

Taurasi like aggression on offense and defense
Paige taking 20 shots
Fudd getting 20 points

I agree with 2 and 3 but believe me Jana gives like she gets and as long as the officials call it consistently I'd be happy with tht, teams are gonna rough it up in order to stop her but we don't need her fouling out.
