I'm thinking the women by a dozen against UA tonight.
Saturday probably comes down to the 3 ball. If it falls, okay,
and if not, well...

so you're saying it's not good enough to just take a lot of
threes? ;) :D ;D (im kidding of course)
our program touts the # of threes we attempt, meanwhile, it
really means nothing (especially if you cant hit them, or win a
big game). in fact i'd argue it's the reason we sometimes lose-
too many ill-selected threes. at least control the clock,
prevent breaks, etc.
but otherwise i think that's right- will these go down. do we
at least try to work the ball inside?

It is frustrating at times, that's for sure. I think teams are
just focusing more on Garcia in the paint and Foreman around the
arc, because we haven't shown that we can score consistently
with anyone else. Since Foreman has a shooting mentality, and
Geno encourages him to shoot, a lot of his shots look forced -
that's why getting Elijah back yesterday, gave him some better
looks, as defenses now have to worry about Olaniyi again as a
3rd scorer. Still think Mo needs to get involved more in the
offense, but in the paint, not launching 3's. Offense should
never go through Jeff - I cringe whenever he touches the ball.

If I were UA I would play zone most of Saturday night . Make us
take long 2s and 3s all night . Keep us out of the paint . On
offense they drive inside and score or least get fouled which we
do well and then go to the line against us . This will be a
squeaker for us and low scoring .
