Top 3 Things You Want To See Friday Night Against Providence

I put it here so folks might better notice it.
During commercials you might want to check out South Carolina
mixing it up with UCLA....7:00 on SECN.

Can UCLA hang with SC...UCLA did whomp LadyVol recently?

No. UCLA will not defeat SC if Boston plays. She sprained her ankle their last game, and was shown wearing a boot on the bench. I’d like the Bruins to knock them off, but it won’t happen.

I don't think they win even if Boston doesn't play,not at SC
 
Azzi decides to play in the first half..she can coast in the 2nd..probably be way ahead by then
Patterson to get extra mins spelling AE and only having 2 fouls
Everyone stay healthy
 
ordinarily i'd be worrying about a huskies' letdown against the likes of the friars. a 'trap' game after a tough victory and before the challenge of meeting a traditional rival (that also is highly ranked, and pretty good -- and on their home court) ... a much-anticipated game.

but i don't think this will be a problem, primarily because nika is there. although it's possible some huskies could slack off (it has happened with some really good previous teams), nika's a leader and a motivator who won't allow any complacency regardless of the opponent. she's always focused on winning ... at all costs and whatever the odds.

kind of like jen rizzotti -- though otherwise i don't see much comparison.
 
1) no (more) injuries
2) Azzi, Nika, and Aaliyah play fewer than 30 minutes apiece (and all the implications that go with it)
3) a convincing win
 
.-.
I would like to see Nika get about 10-15 points. Not that she needs to but i just want to see her do it.
I would like to see Ines get some good playing time
I want to see us running and gunning at our best.
 
Just hope I get to see it. These SNY games are iffy at best.
 
Everybody healthy going into the game and no injuries during the game
Our top seven players playing about even minutes, getting their work done early and all getting some rest during the game
Ines and Amari getting good chunks of playing time and taking full advantage of it
 
Caroline continues to improve
Nika continues double digit assists
Playing time for Ines. She could be starting and playing everyday if she went to that school in Florida. I don't want her to regret her decision to come here.

1. Tough tough defense. Crooms went off for 27 points in the first match-up last year. UConn won with a MOV of 8 points.
2. CD to continue her remarkable progress and finding her stride. AP also!
3. No injuries!
 
1. Providence wearing their black uniforms.
2. Liberal substitutions.
3. DeBerry, Ines & Ayanna getting to play some meaningful minutes.
Players that sit on the bench too long can lose their skills.
Even some MLB bench players get sent down to AAA so they can play every day & stay sharp.
Practicing doesn't replace game experience which Azzi also mentioned regarding her playing PG.

Don't run up the score too much.
Winning by 10 or less seems fair
The other team's parents are watching, so lighten up

This is more a pro-player development league. It's not rec-ball and so not about parents watching. As I watch the games I infer Geno is working on team & player development right up to the last 4 minutes of a blowout. He'll move his focus to the halfcourt game with a comfortable lead, but never let's up on execution. I think that's the right choice to honor the players and the game.
 
consistent team ball at both ends of the court.....give the starters some rest if and when UConn gets big lead........nobody gets hurt......
 
1. no injuries
2. More Caroline
3. Azzi BLOWS UP the entire game!

1. No injuries or sickness

2. Caroline Ducharme more minutes and continue to get her game back to normal

The bench players getting more minutes to rest starters that play mega minutes usually
 
1. No injuries.
2. Stay the course. Foot on the gas at both ends.
3. More Patterson minutes.
 
.-.
1. Ines takes her first shot(s) and is 100% from the field.
2. Ines takes her first 3 pointer(s) and is 100% from behind the arc.
3. Ines takes her first FT(s) and is 100% from the line.
 
1) CD with another degree of becoming herself on the court again.
2) Dorka on the bench with nothing more than an ace bandage on her thumb. Thus getting closer to returning and getting in game shape.
3) A comfortable enough margin to victory so as the bench gets meaningful minutes.
 
Ines and Amari getting PT
Ayanna becoming more comfortable
Azzi hitting all thoughout the game. 40 + points
 
1) No injuries (obviously )
2) Caroline continues her return to top flight play
3) A MOV big enough that Nika can score points that aren’t really needed to satisfy those who think 10 assists a game are irrelevant.
 
1. Four 3s from Nika to keep the defense honest.
2. Fluidity in the offense.
3. More confidence in APs game.

It would be great to see 5 minutes plus for both Amari and Ines. It would be greater if they both play well.
