I agree wth digger. I don't think she has done anything different other than being forced to shoot more, and I think she has made amazing behind the back moves and spin shots. at UCONN too. But there is also a reason why her effciency is much worse now. She is taking much more difficiult shots...

It did limit because as you say UCONN was playing short-handed. If they weren't playing short-handed then you would probably have seen more like the beginning of Nika's jr year. That’s when they wiped out Texas, Duke and NC State. The Texas coach spoke after that game and said no one had...

+100000000000000000000000000. I recall after UCONN beat Baylor there were comments made that UCONN was lucky to win because Baylor's pg was hurt and completely disregarding the Nika loss. At times there are some UCONN fans that imo want to pretend to be fair and they go overboard by providing...

How would you comapre her to Juju, Jasmine Davidson, and Soniya Hall? And I see her her as a 3/4. You see her the same as that?

Smith is a superstar no matter where she goes. IMO the only concern is if her body can hold up which is highly probable it will. If I were to do a wild guess she'll stay West going to a powerhouse program, as a result she won't want to be forced to play for a full game the way she is. Her...

Actually Bonedog made two amazing posts unless what you meant was UCONN can’t be better than what they showed in FF. Other than that, Bonedog is spot on. Though I'm not sure what he meant by tongue-in-cheek after but what he initially said in which you said was homerism isn't really overall...

Four points and being a little silly to boot: 1--- Superstars are superstars because they make players better. Last year SoCar had zero but had the heart of a champion and still got to Finals. The super players are going to make players 3 thru whatever better. Otherwise they aren’t a superstar...

Eleven players is more than enough. All that is needed is a decent bench. You win with your superstars. Look at SoCarl last 4 years (21-22 to now). Before last year for 3 straight years in NCAA they won 2 titles and had 2 superstars. And the team that beat them before last year was Iowa - a...

I'd be shocked if SoCar isn't back in the FF. Your team is a beast again this year. As is UCONN. And Texas tough too. And I think UCLA probably too. Just like last year these are the 3-4 beasts.

I love DT but I go with Stewie. All our preferences as to who we like show. For me why I don't use 02-03 and 03-04 to put DT over Stewie is when DT won it all, the team she beat Tenn, the 2nd leading scorer on the team was 2nd team All-American Kara Lawson. At best Lawson would have been the 5th...

I'm hoping for much more. She has guard skills which means we should also expect to some degree whether good or great is her ability to penetrate and finish, or make excellent "attacking" passes off her pentration setting up others. Unless Aubrey was playing vs "Princeton," her ability to...

Just curious, using your logic above then how can you ever make a determination that some writer or analyst or announcer is bias based on what you've just said? No one is ever bias because both sides complain?

I agree with you. In regard to something like this – stick to what you believe. For example some posters probably believed right from the beginning UCONN was going to win. While others may not have believed until last minutes. For me, I find it “staggering” that people don’t believe to some...

Can't cite all the incidents but I rarely read ESPN mostly becuase of the combo that many posters on here (UCONN fans and non-UCONN alike) know more imo about UCONN and/or basketball overall than quite a few ESPN writers/analysts. Also, I beleive MV hates/dislkes UCONN overall.. But here are...
