Message: [QUOTE="Tonyc, post: 4538538, member: 73"] Well with Caroline back we are at the start of getting this special group of warriors back on track. Creighton played a different game last nite. They played guards and outside shooters forcing UConns bigs to come out and guard them leaving the middle open. They could beat UConn one on one with dribble drives and pull up jumpers. Creighton hit a bunch of treys too. A good tuff game which will pay dividends down the road. It appeared to me when I got home and watched the game after it was over that Dorka and Aaliyah both were rushing their shots instead of taking a split second to get the shot off whether it was a dribble drive and then reverse. To many shots close in were missed because we werent close enough and a spin move in the other direction wouldve made for an easier shot. Geno will handle that in practice. As far as the bench goes. They dont score and we still need scorers. They are inexperienced in a game like this and when its close inexperience can kill you. Geno knows what he's doing and as much as we all know our bigs need a rest Geno feels we dont have the bench he can depend on yet. Next up Nova. With Caroline back that will help alot. Nova s Molly has been hot with 50 and 39 points the last two games. Shes a hand full and I expect UConns defense to handle her. I dont see her going off at a high percentage. The game is on the road for UConn and Nova at home has always been a tuff task. Maddy and Olsen need to be slowed down and our defense has been great at not fouling out however foul trouble will make us defenseless. Nova beat St Johns by 13 with Maddy going for 39 the other evening. UConn has Caroline back and I expect a really good game with UConn with the height advantage [/QUOTE]
