Top 3 Things You Want To See Wednesday Night At Villanova

[BBallF]

We have to put the ND game behind us and move forward in the schedule trying to shore up the weaknesses the loss exposed. To that end, here are my top 3 things:

1) A bounce back solid win.

2) Nika to play smart and to be able to stay in the entire game if needed and to shoot the ball please, not defer.

3) Everyone to pull together under Paige's leadership and play tight team and individual defense, paying special attention to Olsen.

It's still our team, even when we lose, so remember, the season ain't over till it's over.

1. A solid win.
2. Few TOs.
3. Paige taking over the game from the start and everyone else following suit.

No injuries is just a given at this point.

 

[Husky fanatic]

1. Shade 50%from 3
2. Nika actually shoots
3. Hold Lucy under 15

 

[Hoops66]

1) As much playing time as possible for Ines and Ice, for the rest of the season. Amare too.
2) Even more full court pressure, even if it's moderate pressure. See 1) above.
3) No more lazy passes.

 

[Ozimoto]

A solid win
get the taste of the ND game out of their mouths
no injuries

 

[Zarathustra]

1. Hold Lucy Olsen below her average.... much below her average.
2. UCONN cleans up any FOUL tendency... now and for the future
3. A high % in both 2-point shooting and three-point shooting....
3a. (Sorry, I just had to add: " Bench " support from "the bench"... this could be #1, #2, and #3!!

 

[browns]

Paige to play like an AA
Get back to tenacious defense
Others rebound not just AE and Nika

 

[JellyBean]

If we are still dwelling on that ND loss, we are already in trouble. Hopefully we have moved on. With that being said, the three things I want to see on Wednesday are:

1). Aggressive offense and defense. Be in attack mode from the tip!
2). Confidence-Play with a purpose out there. Tomorrow, or the next game, is not guaranteed. Go get yours now!
3). Strong performance from everyone. If you are a bench player and only getting 1-3 minutes on the floor. Make the most of those minutes. If you are in the rotation, make the most of those minutes.

Bounce Back Game! Destroy and Dominate. Let's Go, UConn!!

Renewed Confidence
Poise
Improvement in Execution

1- More work for Ice and Q. We saw first hand that we cannot handle any good team if we have foul trouble. They need the work, so give it to them.
2- More work for Ines. Bringing Ice in to replace Nika makes no sense. We needed a guard to replace any of the guards that may need a break.
3- Paige to get her mojo back.

Intensity
Less Fouling
No Injuries

 

[Longtime fan]

I would like to see this team play as if they know what they are doing.
And some positive growth from ICE and Q
And Paige put up 30

Have to agree. Brady for Muhl is crazy.

 

[Bills Fan]

A return to form for our seniors (incl PB)
At least 50% from the arc by Ashlynn
KK learning to do something other than throw up a prayer when she drives to the basket. She is reminding me of Nika's early days

When you watch the current rotation it seems like UConn coaches are trying to push a round peg into a square hole. Ice should be used to give AE a break but she isn't a solution as the second big in the game. First she isn't that tall and secondly she plays from behind and against taller players that won't work. In this game it really won't matter what UConn does they will still dominate and win big.

1. KK start guarding the quickest player on the other team not Nika
2. Better defense on the pick at the free throw line, and more lag by AE if her player goes away from the basket
3. Amari is 6'6 with long arms, nobody else is and she needs to be a factor for UConn to improve

 

[Huskee11]

Less than three fouls and eight or more assists from you know who

No ill affects and 25+ points from the other you know who (think twin)

A thirty+ point win and a lot of smiles on the bench at the end, while holding Olsen to 16 or less

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

1. Nika to play like Nika usually does!
2. Aggressive play by all players for the full 40 minutes!
3. NO injuries!

KK was guarding Hannah for most of her open drives. Nika played 19 minutes most guarding Hannah she had 10 points, KK guarded her for 24. There was an actual quick fast UConn guard at Gampel Saturday. Moriah
