In my opinion the Cards will need to create havoc on defense and score off turnovers. UNI is a much better shooting basketball team so we'll have to make limit their attempts by creating turnovers, and of course rebounding the shots they do miss. We can't give them extra chances.Originally posted by NorthCard:
What do you think are the keys to the game with UNI? I think Trez has to be dominate; at least 20 and 10. He should have the edge in the post and he has to take advantage. He is the key in my opinion and is due for a better game.
We will see. Tuttle averages right at 3 turnovers a game and he hasn't seen anything like the defense he's going to see tonight. I think the Cards will have a chance to force a bunch of turnovers tonight if they bring it like I know they can.Originally posted by Smithereen:
I kept hearing we got a great, I felt we had a horrible draw with respect to first two rounds of match ups. These are the exact type of teams we struggle with.
We will need to very patient on offense so not to waste possessions, we will not get endless possessions from numerous TOs and steals against this team. We need WB,TR & Q to get in the paint, hopefully they are more athletic than UNI. Trez needs to shut down their big man and we need to pressure the 3 point line. Tall order for this team but if we play like we did vs. VA and UC Irvine we will win.
