    2025 WNBA Off-Season

    I honestly think that is about right. I mean she's not exactly tearing it up at UCLA right now. She's averaging 15 PPG, 7.5 RPG and 3.7 APG. Good numbers but not great. Given that slow footed centers like her seem to be waning in the WNBA, I will be VERY curious if/when the GM's pull the trigger...

    This week’s AP Player of the Week is…

    Very nice. They may cancel each other out a bit at the end of the season NPOY voting, but both of them are deserving of being in the discussion as one of the few elites.

    Azzi to Dallas Wings???

    I think that would be bad for Dallas. They were very weak in the post and Awa Fam is a 6'4" athletic future star who is only 19. She is a much better pick. I think Azzi will go 4th or so. This is one of the better snips of an analysis of her from a Dallas Mavericks community analyst: In...

    2025 WNBA Off-Season

    I think this makes a lot of sense. Look at some of the best players - The tallest like Wilson and Stewart (especially Wilson) have expanded mid range and outside shooting games. The days of true back to the basket centers seems to be waning. Especially ones who are on the slow-footed side...

    Bryant Post game thread

    Congrats to Silas! 2nd triple double in the past 10 years. But... Good things about this game: It was a win Silas 10-10-10 Reibe 16 points in 19 minutes There were also stretches of good defense. That was about all. I get Bryant had a tough non-conference, but they are now 1-5. Kinda expected...

    You know both players well? Who is Okosa?

    Kibitzer Memorial Badass Award

    Blanca was certainly more flashy, and is going to be a huge star, but I have to say Azzi had the ball in her hands a LOT and is so fundamentally sound. Plus, Azzi is still shooting 50% from 3 for the year? OMG!!! Really tough call, but I'll agree with my friend @Tonyc and say Blanca!

    Utah Postgame Thread

    Really enjoyable game - aside from a bit of a mystifying 2nd quarter. I do love that 5 bench players got over 10 minutes, but the 2nd quarter shows that when you have a team as fundamentally sound as Utah, who has their starters playing, certain bench players just are not a good mix. Another...

    Fear of Failure

    I'm not sure of the point here. On what planet do you think the players had a "fear of failure" vs. Michigan? I hardly think there is ANY advice a BY'er could give the players that is better than what the best coaching staff in the world could give. And no offense, but how do you know what...

    Where Can We See The Utah Game

    Found this online from a search: The Hall of Fame Women's Showcase includes the following NCAA women's basketball games on TV: UConn vs. Michigan on FOX (Nov. 21), Syracuse vs. Utah on FS2 (Nov. 21), Michigan vs. Syracuse on FS1 (Nov. 23), and UConn vs. Utah on FS1 (Nov. 23). The showcase takes...

    UConn free throw rate: dead last

    In a way that's even more impressive. Sarah, Serah, Jana, and even KK, Ash and Kayleigh are able to drive to the basket, or have plays that lead to layups, and the motion offense is so impressive that they manage the shot attempt without being fouled. Basically means they usually lose their...

    We may have been caught by Surprise

    To me every game is entertaining. It's part of what being a fan is all about. You chew off your nails, almost have a heart attack, etc. when it's a close game or loss, and sit back and enjoy the team going out and performing well in a blowout. Honestly, I'm tired of the fickle fans who whine...

    Michigan Postgame Thread

    What SC team did Michigan play in what season opener?

    Kibitzer Memorial Badass Award

    Not even close. Azzi all the way. Great game by Sarah, but Azzi 7-12 from 3, 100% on FT's for the season, and 31 points. She was the definition of badass tonight. Bravo Azzi!!
