    Sue and Diana are the greatest teammates in the history of sports

    There was a year I thought Whalen should have won it too.

    OT: USA vs France Mens BB SPOILER

    I don’t think the team lacks talent as much as it does experience. Only Durant and Draymond are returning players, everyone else is new and young. The international game is very different than the NBA and they just don’t know the style yet. There is a lot of talent though, it’s just whether...

    AJ Price update?

    Anyone have any idea where he’s at? Last I heard he was playing in China. Was one of my all time favorites..

    Bill Simmons on Kemba

    I don’t mind Simmons, and he’s probably reporting what he heard..but it’s just another example of Boston Sports attempting to make a villain if a player. this goes against pretty much everything we know about Kemba. I doubt it’s true, but it’s probably what the Celtics org wants to get out there.

    OT: Kemba traded to Thunder

    Brad’s defensive schemes exposed him too. Kemba is good defensively at certain things..taking charges, sticking him on a shooter and acting like a gnat.. But Stevens liked to switch everything - and given the makeup of his team last year (Tatum, Theis, Brown, Hayward..) it’s understandable...

    Paige better get her signing hand ready this summer

    Without question. Her Instagram account has 700,000 followers. If she were to get a shoe deal, she could advertise it to 700,000 people. Where does Stewie get that sort of exposure? Certainly not from games, even WNBA finals don’t have that sort of exposure. PUMA isn’t going to do it, because...

    Paige better get her signing hand ready this summer

    1. About time. 2. Paige has a few highly popular social media accounts, those will make her the most money. 3. we should all be super happy for these women. Their highest income potential for endorsements are in college - when they aren’t allowed to earn anything. This will help women...

    Another point of view

    She missed layups all the time, especially in big games. Williams, I think, turned a corner this year, and it was evident in the final four game. Im not sure what ONO needs. I almost think it’s a strength issue, but smarter people than me can figure it out. and I think it might be better for...

    She was 0-7, she’s not a low post threat. Her best asset as an offensive player is her passing.

    Arizona Postgame Thread

    Stewie came onto a team that was championship caliber without her, her class was ridiculous, and then as Dolson and Hartley left, Collier and Katie Lou came in..with no real rivals from any team outside of her freshman season. Seems like Geno is stacking again, so perhaps Azzi gets four...or...

    Proud of them, really. Williams showed a lot of growth this season, that’s so important. But our two best players are Freshmen, and expecting them to be able to keep their composure in the final four and carry the team. That’s a lot to ask. Diana Taurasi and Kemba Walker could struggle in a...

    Geno: Paige Bueckers should be able to enter WNBA draft, but staying helps her 'build a brand'

    The thing is, there isn’t really an incentive for Paige to leave early. So she can have a roommate in a crappy hotel, fly in a crowded plane, be on tv and sports center half as much, lose twice as much, have a worse coach, and make 50,000 a year. sure, she should have the choice...but why on...

    Who Guards Aari McDonald or What Defense does Geno Come Up With.

    If Nika can play, Nika. If she isn’t playing, Williams mostly with Evina spelling her at times.

    Paige Bueckers, Iowa’s Caitlin Clark named WBCA co-Freshmen of the Year

    They should probably be co player of the year too.

    Kinda over looked

    I also think Mulkey was more concerned about Paige’s passing than scoring. Paige can both score at will and get the whole team involved. If the whole UConn offense starts running, Baylor was in trouble. But force UConn into a one on one game..where really only CW and Paige can burn Baylor -...

    In that one play. if they hadn’t of swallowed their whistles on the three drives in the fourth where Paige missed a layup and was clearly fouled..or when Williams went to the basket with no foul..maybe it’s an 8 point game instead of a 2... that’s why you can’t look at the game in pieces. They...

    It was technically a foul, but not in that game. Paige dealt with more contact every time she drove to the basket. Williams dealt with more contact the okay before that was a no call. if it isn’t a foul on one end, it’s not on the other. A let them play style suited Baylor far more than...

    I felt we really missed Nika in this game, I’m hoping to see her return. we are also a significantly better team with Edwards in. She’s a complete game changer. It doesn’t matter who starts, in big games both okay a lot of minutes for a reason..I’m hoping Nika is ready for the Final Four.

    Taurasi had to be trained to shoot first. She has always been a player that prefers passing. She is, by far, the best overall offensive player in wbb history. IMO.

    Paige wasn’t dominant this game, but this is the type of game that I think she likes to have. She really doesn’t want to make all the shots. She made them when it mattered. that being said, Aaliyah Edwards was the best freshman on the court today. very happy for CW today, I hope her play...

    DT on Paige's Position In The Basketball Universe

    The coolest thing about Clark and Bueckers is seeing the clear influence Diana had on their game..like watching from MJ to Kobe..(and for Paige, I see a lot of Sue too) Before Diana, women’s players were exclusively compared to men..now we see the impact she’s had on young players (and many...

    If NOT UConn, then I prefer...

    I actually really liked that Arkansas team. I would say South Carolina. I want to see Women’s basketball succeed across the sport, and Dawn is good for the game. (I’ll be rooting for Kara Lawson in the future too.)

    Serious question..have they tested people after they had vaccines? Like..seems like you would test positive given they just gave you dead covid.

    Has Paige hit the wall?

    I don’t think it’s the Freshman wall, as much as it was that she’s played a lot of minutes on an injury that still hasn’t fully healed, and her shots are short because of it. Then I think it got in her head some. She was even a step slow on defense against Marquette. I think after Nika got...

    Much love to Nika

    Jesus she’s tough. that being said, unless she really is ready to go..rest her for the tournament. We’ll need as close to 100% Nika for the NCAA’s

    Support for CW

    Yup..in fact, I think CW has the opposite problem. I think she’s too nice. two moments stick out for me..first, when the ball landed in her hands after the player from South Carolina fell..CW’s first impulse was to check on the player instead of using the basketball advantage that she was...

    Honestly, I think people give them too much credit. DT made that group far better than what they were. Again, the best WNBA player (after DT) from that group was Ashley Battle, the second best was Jessica Moore. I expect ONO, Williams, Nika, and Edwards will all have better WNBA careers than...
