Plus 5 boards, 3 assists, 3 stls and 2 blocks.

Only problem with the argument is that UConn shot a better percentage from 3pt range and overall FG %. If you rebound all your misses then it hides your weaknesses. Also if you get all the calls it helps. Not saying they didnt deserve win but it was not their offense, its their rebounding...

So beating two top teams in NC St and Stanford, along with evryone but SC with his offense doesnt count?

I agree and was confused by the minutes distributed. More confused by all the passes that were given to starters 3-10, turnovers,etc... then when someone off the bench makes a mistake or two, or misses a shot, its that they are "way off and dont deserve minutes like the starters." Hey i'm not...

I dont know what transpires behind the scenes but since she has arrived she has demonstrated being the ultimate team player. I have grown to respect her tremendously and wish her the best.

They were the better team last night.

I appreciate your insight. Here is the simplicty of my argument. When the chips are down CD is only behind Paige in my eyes. Azzi is right there too. So i have her as a top 3 player on this team. She showed it tonight against #1 overall and a great defensive team. She gets open, scores...

Probably losing to Geno adds a little sting too

Agreed, fair point. It's an emtional time for you as a coach and your team.

Not case with NC State game

You know I was looking at her stats in the big games such as LV, Oregon, ND.... she had the best stats. There are 2 Elite 8 teams and one that is in FF. I think this is her "type of game."

Congrats to CW. She has worked hard and excited she is playing her best ball right now!

So every starter is a star player that should not come off the floor? CD is more than a guard, she can easily be considered a forward both in height and her game. Also, this "struggling" is mind boggling. Her numbers for mins is far from struggling. Geno at one point said he wants her...

I agree. The comment is was for those that make an argument or sarcastic comment when folks question the coach or do not agree with his decisions. 100% cool with anyone that thinks CD should be played more, as is or not at all.

Someone say they like American Muscle. 68 Camaro with 565ci... :-)

Its a forum and every coach in every sport is not perfect. Is Pete Caroll a great coach but decided to pass on one yard line in SB and not give the ball to the beast. Even an undefeated Pats team lost SB to Giants, anything they could have done differently? Can we discuss as fans? Or since...

Right like what match ups? She is 6'2" and scores inside / out, rebounds, defends and has steals. How does she not fit in? For 10 mins at least.

Its funny how people ignore Christyn's shooting percentage but harp on a couple misses by CD. I think last two games she is 2 for 5, not a big sample or slump. She also has one turnover. I recall her having some assists and steals. She makes things happen and her positive has always...

Dont disagree about Paige. But outside her and most likely Fudd I bet CD will be a star more than rest of team. She showed it already but trust in Geno.

Amen!

Thats fair but not always the case across the board. There are bench players that get as many mins as starters. I dont care if we win because thats always goal number one, I guess one fear is if we lose and didnt tap the folks available to help and could have made the difference.

So her one turnover in two games? She had 2 assists yeatwrday and the higest for any player was 3 for whole game. Plus she was 2 for 3 fg. Really struggling huh.

I think there is over analyzing, not you specifically but everyone. Apply the same logic to Azzi and she sits during most of that game. She has turnovers, number of missed shots, etc... AE, bless her, has offensive fouls which equals turnovers. I can go on with the starters. It seems if your...

You can take out almost anyone for 2-3 mins stretches for her. Its a win win to get them rest and if Azzi for instance could have gotten a seat for a few mins maybe she has better legs or reflects to get shot back on track. She was the goto at one point and only lost starting spot because of...

Agreed on balancing mins a little better. Also, gotta get past a tough NC St team first!

Energy, defense, ballmovement and ultimately the confidence are what had me pumped this game and excited for the next 3

8 mins 2-3 FG 4 pts 2 assists 1 reb 0 fouls 1 TURNOVER (OH MY GOSH -some folks acting like she is falling apart..LOL) Winning is the most important thing and trust Geno but still wondering why all starters getting over 30 mins and he cant get 2nd all conference 15-20 mins.... i just think it...

AE... not player of the game but was a beast and BA when needed

I am not sure about starting over AZ but CD should have played a lot more than she did somewhere on the floor, unless there is something we don't know. I laugh at a few who are like she is not ready, less we forget she stepped up as much or more when team was limited. She missed TWO (easy)...

How did she have a poor game? She was 0-2 in a few mins. When she is in she makes things happen. Those are Geno's past words. She can rebound and play defense. Also seen her come up big and gets open. I actually think she could have been impactful if she played.

Was thinking about this and Iowa loss.... not to say they were one-woman teams but thinking how our diversity and depth can help us in a way that we have not had in a long time, and others in the tourney do not have.

So he rather focus on improving but lose? Geno's goal is to win the game in front of him this time of year above all. In the regular season you would hear him say this loss can be good, not in the tourney. There are videos of him taking about the tournament and goal is just winning. I...

Two #2 seeds upset today. You don't improve this time of year, you win or go home. People just need something to debate. The goal is very simple this time of year, you score more than your opponent. Style points don't matter, stats don't matter and how many you win by does not matter...

Funny thing is there are people on an AA team that shot under 50% from field much less 3pt% :-)

Agree. People forget she was /is regarded as a top 3 point shooter. She has not shot it well this season but it can change in a min, plus her being a threat opens things up. That all said she is a complete player and seems like when she is out on the floor things always (+) happen.
