Message: [QUOTE="mudblood, post: 4446769, member: 11221"] Well, you got your wish in the fourth quarter of the Iowa game, where the last 6 minutes went with Nika, Lou, Caroline, Azzi, and AE on the floor at the same time - and look at what happened! BTW, for those who haven't watched (or don't remember details because of the adrenaline...): Iowa started the fourth on a 13-5 run and went up by 4 with 6 minutes left. And then UConn went on a 20-9 run to end it, in which: [LIST] [*]10 of our 20 points were scored by Caroline (5 by Lou, 3 by Azzi, 2 by AE) [*]those 10 points included the 3 to start the run and the 2 FTs to ice it with 30 seconds left [*]she also had a steal, an assist (to give us the lead back), and 2 critical rebounds in that span [/LIST] That was as classic of a game takeover at the end as it gets. So yes, I think Lou will start to keep things consistent and better for her game but Caroline (if healthy) will always be there at the end of close games. She just has that knack to exploit any weaknesses in the opponent at critical times. Unless we'll be playing against a bunch of 6'5 I think we'll see a lot more of that 4+1 (with either Dorka or AE) to mess up the other team. Looks like soon we'll finally have a real 5+3 rotation (where all subs play significant minutes). Very exciting. Everybody stay healthy, please!! [/QUOTE]
