Top 3 Things You Want To See Wednesday Night Against DePaul

[BBallF]

1) No let down because we are not playing South Carolina, DePaul can beat us if we play poorly:

2) Defense on the 3s which DePaul loves with Nika and Liv staying out of foul trouble;

3) Getting the ball underneath on offense, good outside shots and no lazy or stupid passes.

• @ Depaul is a tough place to play
• Depaul's pace could be a problem for our short-handed squad
• Need interior to come up big against Morrow, while simultaneously guarding the perimeter

1- just get the win!
2- just get the win!
3- just get the win!

Need to play smart and dont turn over the ball
need to out rebound depaul, with Ono at 6'5 Dorka at 6'4 and Edwards at 6'3 should win the battle of the boards.
guards need to hit the 3 more times than they miss.

Chicago heat wave! Break out the shorts.

 

[Husky fanatic]

1. Liv and Caroline continue to perform well
2. Nika drains multiple 3
3. Defend the 3 pt line

 

[Mdoggie]

1. Evina find her shot
2. Evina find her confidence.
3. Evina makes her momma proud.

 

[sun]

1. I hope that our bench plays some minutes and show that they can contribute when it's really needed.

2. I don't want to see any UConn injuries due to our players not getting enough rest.

3. Let's see DePaul play a good game in a losing effort against UConn.
A good defensive effort by UConn should slow the game down enough to help our players not need to score 100 points to win.
They shouldn't need to beat UConn to make it to the NCAA tourney, and I hope they don't win.
I don't want to see our girls running ragged, but I would like to see DePaul do well enough to make it to the NCAA tourney because it would help the Big East generate favorable publicity.

 

[#12in21]

1) the near misses Nika has been throwing up for threes dropping this game
2) Caroline, Liv and Dorka repeat last outing
3) Evina and Aaliyah play great games

 

[GoUconn7961]

I can only think of two.

1. Good Defense
2. Scoring more points than DePaul

 

[VA Huskie]

1. Caroline gets red hot from 3
2. Our defense is relentless
3. Dorks and Edwards have their best games of the year!

 

[Zarathustra]

1. somehow not get harmed by our "short"
bench
2. not get hurt by DePaul's quick guards =
but I can't see them driving into the paint
3. balanced UCONN scoring, but would
love to see Caroline outshine Morrow in
some clear fashion, ONO to continue to be
superb, Dorka to "do" a little bit of
everything, and everyone be poised
with no lazy passing!

 

[JellyBean]

1). Same starting five with the same intensity of that St John's and Seton Hall game.

2). With this match up with DePaul, we should not have any problems with the open court game. With that being said, I would like to see continued drive and kick options and the same reaction by the players. Drive and penetrate. Drive and Kick with a 3-point shot action.

3). We dominate both ends of the floor. Just a complete offensive and defensive domination.

 

[dtbtbtb]

This is probably one of the better chances of Bruno to at last beat UConn (especially if EW will not play) so my 3 are:
1. Win
2. Keep Morrow below her average.
3. all 5 starters to score more then 10 points.

I'm thankful that I don't have this type of weather anymore, currently 65 degrees here in Vegas. Lived 20 years in Indiana and had 20 of my 24 years of service in cold weather states or overseas. The only actual state that didn't have much cold weather was Louisiana, which was only 1 year, Alexandria, VA was the other 3 years.

1. Defense
2. Limit turnovers
3. Stay out of foul trouble

 

[MilfordHusky]

1. Liv and Caroline continue their excellent play. And combine for 30+ points, 20+ rebounds, and 10+ steals.

2. We dominate the boards again.

3. We shoot a solid percentage: 50/40/80.

4. We hold Depaul to a season low.

 

[HuskyNan]

This is probably one of the better chances of Bruno to at last beat UConn (especially if EW will not play) so my 3 are:
1. Win
2. Keep Morrow below her average.
3. all 5 starters to score more then 10 points.

Why wouldn’t Evina play?

 

[HopJim]

No dumb turn overs on passes from the guards.

 

[Biff]

Why wouldn’t Evina play?

I was thinking he meant CW?

 

[Bball244]

1 Uconn makes like 60%+ of their 3s
2 Nika’s pick pocketing (a thing of beauty) that lead to her having an easy layup
3 Caroline scores 25+

 

[Bald Husky]

1- Geno changes his mind about playing CW. Need her perimeter defense
2- Caroline scores over 25 with less shots
3- Dorka, Liv, and AE rebound like crazy for second chance points
