Message: [QUOTE="Notyetready, post: 4367163, member: 11736"] It is not only that UConn has to fill Paige's shoes at the 1 and 2 spots. Realistically, Geno will need to shunt one or two of his six forwards to the 3 spot, leaving four guards for the 1 and 2 spots-- at least some of the time. He did use a three-big line-up a few times last year and I'm guessing that is what he plans on for this year. I remember one time when the third big was Amari who spent all her offensive time on the 3 pt arc of the left wing. Who can effectively play the three from the list of forwards? Ice and Amari are probably the best 3 pt. shooters but Ayanna is the best perimeter defender (she was effective against Ashlynn Shade when their teams met). Lots of pre season training camp to work on perimeter skills. Will be fun to watch. [/QUOTE]
