Message: [QUOTE="BlueSkyGLW, post: 4484106, member: 11281"] All these things I devoutly wish as the year turns: [LIST=1] [*]Nika and Aubrey continue to improve their outside shooting as what they are currently doing in offense and defense get tidier and better. [*]Aaliyah and Dorka keep the growth going and become tempered as steel for the tournament [*]Amari showing flashes of increased speed on court to keep up with the flow at the pace UConn wants to play - keep it going and then show the skill set! [*]Azzi stays healthy the rest of the year, play great and be a factor in POY race [*]Caroline finally returns to her best form [*]Ayanna gains better control of her body [*]Aaliyah continues to raise her outstanding play so that she may shade Aliyah (Boston) when they meet (Dorka will have to take care of the other SC bigs) [*]Ines gets over her stitches and is appropriated playing time during Big East games, at least. [*]The whole team continue to improve their synchronization during their read and react moments in both defense and offense, always keeping themselves and the ball moving. [*]No more injuries in order to enable these growths.....and get them to the FF [*]Through miracles or hard labor, beat the favored teams to win NC12. [/LIST] Still 2023 but next season [LIST=1] [*]Paige and Ice fully recover and better conditioned for the new season. [*]Azzi and Paige are finally fully healthy and playing well together as they had planned in coming to UConn [*]Ice and Jana help elevate front court strength to give Aaliyah plenty of help [*]The incoming group catch on quickly so that one other weapon in defense can be deployed more often when appropriate: the full court press (depth and speed needed). [*]Azzi and Paige win their first NC together, and [*]Tempt Paige to stay another year and to try again, for which they will surely be favored as Ice, Jana and Ayanna improve as expected to make up for Aaliyah's departure. [/LIST] And, finally, every UConn fan visiting the Boneyard remain alive and kicking to see all these come to pass. HAPPY GREGORIAN AND LUNAR NEW YEAR TO ONE AND ALL!!!! [/QUOTE]
