Message: [QUOTE="BBallF, post: 4310962, member: 10435"] We didn't have depth until this year since 2016 and in the most important game the depth this year was injured, or sidelined. Evina was injured and Dorka was out and they were are two most important subs addition to Nika. Azzi was sick and a non factor, Liv was hurt with a groin pull and a non-factor and Paige was worn down by the Elite 8 game and a very serious surgery. Ask yourself this- If Boston has a groin pull, Henderson has an intestinal virus, Cooke is injured in the game, and Saxton has a broken wrist, who wins that game if we are healthy? What depth did we really have in the Finals? Or for most of this year? You have to be healthy to make an impact whether you start or sub in. I personally think the UCONN run this year was incredible. If they had won people would be saying that Geno was the greatest coach in the history of sports. They would have made a movie about it. We lost 4 games to teams we could have wiped the court with if we were healthy. At one point our leading scorer was an unproven nervous freshman. The short answer is there was no real depth in 5 years before this year but you can't produce when you are hurt, sick, or recuperating from surgery. [/QUOTE]
