Top 3 Things You Want To See Saturday at Butler. Game is at 4:30 P.m. on SNY.

So, last night was a 41 point win against a Seton team that came to play. It was not perfect and some of our cylinders were not firing very well but a letdown to some degree was inevitable after the huge SC victory. I was at the Seton game with my 3 year old granddaughter (her first game) and my family so it was a great night for us but you can see that we still have work to do. Here are my top 3 things:

1) KK and everyone else to look up in transition and pass it ahead. We have so many good finishers on the break( Azzi, Paige, Ash, KC, Sarah) that the ball needs to get pushed.

2) Jana to get back into the SC mentality. Play within yourself and concentrate on fundamentals like sealing off the defender, going straight up and creating space on defensive rebounds.

3) Paige to just do what she did last night. A complete game in every respect and showing great leadership as the best all around player in America..


What are your top 3 things?

 

[Cornell Lt]

1. Lots of bench minutes
2. Sarah/Jana 30 pts 15 rebounds
3. Allie with 4 3 pointers

 

[Tonyc]

1. Jana's continued improvement
2. Plays designed to get Azzi more open shots
3. Less moving screens

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

1. Start from the tip using defense to shut down Butler
2. Have at least 5 players in double figures
3. Stay injury free

This is a game that all three are the same, get out of the game as healthy as you came into it. This game really won't bring much value other than reserves getting floor time.

It may have value if our Big 3 all are firing and hitting at the same time. It's what we need in March.

As for #3, if she's open it's usually in.

Geno said after Seton Hall that Morgan’s ankle isn’t responding to treatment as well as they’d like. She’s returned home, probably to consult with her doctor there

That's great! Give us a recap of your experience there. I took my 3 year old granddaughter to her first basketball game at Walsh on Wednesday night. She didn't want to leave after the game was over. She wanted to wait around to have Paige sign her jersey but it was freezing out and there were at least 50 people surrounding the team bus before we even got there. You should have a great time with them.

 

[huskeynut]

1. the 8 player rotation continues to gel
2. Jana continues to improve
3. No injuries

 

[Basingstoke]

In addition to the usual win & no injuries (maybe there should be a thread for top 3 things you'd like to see come out of practice)...
1) Paige doing Paige things (without a limp)
2) the team returning to their intensity and focus right from the opening tip off and continuing throughout the game
3) Jana to shrug off her last game and reverting to her steady progress

 

[JellyBean]

1). Assertiveness on both ends of the floor.
2). A balanced attacked on scoring.
3). Coach G giving the "What was that" look at least two times a quarter so I am going with 8 "What was that" look.

Ok, I will take 10 "what was that?" looks. I think the over/under is 9.

 

[Topdawg]

1. Stifling defense, dominate the boards
2. lots of ball movement and 25+ 3-point attempts
3. Drive and draw fouls.

This didn't age well.
If I recall correctly, she wasn't on the bench for the Seton Hall game so I would guess that she returned to Storrs after the SoCar game where the procedure decision was made. Or maybe not.
