This thread says to me that we have officially run out of things to talk about and that the season can't start soon enough!

UConn Athletics sent out an email on October 16 indicating paper tickets and parking passes will be received the week of October 20. It is always like this, feels last minute but they arrive in time.

The tough one is the 90% for free throws. Paige would have had it easily last year but for the free throws. She was 112 for 126 or .8888. 113 would have gotten her to .8968 which arguably would have been enough, rounded up. 114 would have clearly done it. You could tell when she missed some in...

Sopron with another lopsided victory in the Hungarian League, this time 92-40 against BEAC -Ujbuda. Solid game apparently for Nika with 13 points on 5-9 shooting (3 for 6 from three), 3 rebounds, 5 assists in 24 minutes. Very strange game in that Sopron only led 30-22 at the half but outscored...

Well, tough one today as Flammes Carolo (a team KLS played for briefly many years ago) thumped Sopron in a Euroleague matchup, 82-54. Nika did not appear to have a great game with only four points and a rough plus/minus, but she did have seven assists (half of team total). Biggest positive...

MORE good news from Hungary as Sopron wins, 95-52 over Cegledi after being up 55-22 at halftime. Nika had 10 points on 4-6 shooting (including 2 of 3 from three), 4 rebounds, and ELEVEN assists in 20 minutes of play. Info obtained from flashscoreusa.com. Pretty easy to navigate look for...

Englebert's response was pretty weak-kneed, in sharp contrast to Napheesa's passionate and powerful statement. So Phee has now painted Engelbert into a corner. She has thrown her under the proverbial bus for all to see and has basically dared Engelbert to fine her. If Engelbert lets it slide...

I found Geno’s comments about his team to be very interesting, but his comments about the physicality of the WNBA to be even more so. I would not be surprised if those WNBA comments get some traction in the national media. Basically, saying don’t blame the refs, this “style” of play is a choice...

Good news - Sopron won easily, 103-48. Nika had 10 points in 17 minutes including 3 of 4 from three and one of two from the line. Also 6 rebounds and 3 assists. Welcome back, Nika! FYI this information comes from the box score that I found on flashscoreusa.com

Looks like Sopron opens up for real tomorrow against Vasas Akademia in the Hungary league. Good luck Nika! She is also on the cover of the most recent Elle magazine Croatia. Our favorite cover girl/point guard. Eurobasket.com is a decent site for information on European pro teams.

Well here we go, another UConn player with her head on straight...........

The UConn 2025-2026 will be very good but we just don't know yet what it is going to look like. It might look different at different times during the season as things ebb and flow. It is a function of a lot of things, different themes. First and foremost there are 15 players, hence at least 15...

You beat me to the punch. I think all of the posts thus far do a commendable job in analyzing her offensive and defensive abilities, both positive and negative. But the comment above concerning the energy she brought is also key in understanding her impact. That, plus the fact that she was...

Interesting stuff, you are definitely a stats guy! I think Serah has more than an outside chance to get to 2,000 points though. If she needs 506, she would need to average about 12.7 over 40 games. That is very doable. Her minutes may be limited due to roster size and blowout wins, that is the...

Listened to Los Lobos a lot back in the 80's, kind of forgot about them and then had the chance to actually see them in Hartford a couple of years ago. This is my favorite song of theirs.
