Message: [QUOTE="gsmooth, post: 4562841, member: 9355"] Hopkins isn't a good defender at all and I am sure the scouting report on Jerome Hunter (Xavier) and KC Ndefo (Seton Hall) was for him to leave those guys to shoot from outside for fear of their dribble penetration. He overreacts to that and doesn't stand within 7 feet of them and they make their outside shots a 2 times. If UConn can design some plays early for Karaban to drive, not really his game I know, and Karaban scores or draws fouls on Hopkins this will open up Karaban's outside shot for the rest of the game-Hopkins won't play tight D on Karaban on the perimeter.
