    Nika myth should be dumped

    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.

    Can Ice have a big season this year?

    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...

    Nika myth should be dumped

    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...

    Streaks, Stats, and Stuff to Consider

    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...

    OT: band you've never posted before

    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.

    Dallas Wings, part 2

    The Bills have been in the playoffs in each of the last five years and have won seven playoff games during that stretch. So they haven't won the big one but they are competitive. I'm a Giants fan, don't talk to me about suffering!

    Dallas Wings, part 2

    The fear is that his comments can be interpreted to mean exactly that. I get that he shouldn't be throwing his current roster under the bus, that would be unseemly at best. But they are 9-34 and have lost their last ten games. They are in last place and have the worst scoring defense in the...

    We are clearly not yet in mid-season form

    Dallas Wings, part 2

    He comes across as a real lightweight, IMHO. As referenced in previous posts, he lauds the number of really skilled, talented young players on the roster, and later notes in the same vein for emphasis that it is a very talented young team. None of that is true. Basically, a team of cast-offs...

    Last week of summer workouts

    If not afraid, she was at least unwilling to shoot as the season wore on before her injury put her on the sidelines. I like her a lot as a player, great floor presence and smarts, but her passing up of open shots and her unnecessary reach-in touch fouls were a bit maddening at times.

    UConn stats... Serah Williams career stats are really impressive...!!

    I had not focused on her ability to draw fouls. That is a very good thing especially given that UConn only shot about 12 free throws per game last season and actually committed more fouls than their opponents, 517 to 499. Getting the opponents' front court into early foul trouble makes the game...

    There’s been a Blanca sighting in Storrs

    Sue Bird doppelgänger in the row behind At first I was wondering why on earth would Sue be up there!

    Preparing for the coming season

    I was at that game also and I have to agree. It was something else again. Paige had 15 points in the overtime periods and basically willed UConn to the win while essentially playing on one leg. Azzi, Olivia, Aaliyah, Evina and Christyn were all terrific as well. Dorka broke her arm/wrist during...

    What is your game plan for tickets? Secondary market?
