That is the very reason why we need to getting the tempo hot and keep stoking it, they don't like it! Getting them out of doing what they want to do at the pace they are comfortable doing it, dictate the pace rather than allow them to set it.
UConn wants to play about 7 deep so they slow the pace to get their breathers on court, exactly for the same reason the last 2yrs we went with a very short bench and we lived in the half court on both ends. But even more, we have a small starting back court with Cadeau and RJ, we make ourselves even smaller by starting Ryan at the 3 and Ingram at the 4, going that small not only do we really need to run our breaks but it allows us to cover a lot of those size mismatches. Press the team that wants a slower tempo, the press speeds up guys mentally, that is a problem for a team that mentally wants things slowed down. You saw that against Tenn, when we sped them up they crumbled.
