Message: [QUOTE="Cuango, post: 4276751, member: 3834"] We’ll see! “One swallow does not a summer make” I’m a little unsure how losing one out of 12 championship games means UConn is “heading for the exit? That statement is several years away from being relevant! If Geno had lost number 7, say, you might have said the same thing! Then we would have won another 4. If you really think UConn is done because a dominant team beat them while having every possible advantage; schedule- they played two comparatively easy games prior to this, while UConn had to fight to the end against superior (on paper) teams, Health- SC was totally healthy, we were clearly not, officiating ( this one may never go away in the current climate) the huge disparity in fouls and the obvious protection of Boston, and the physical dominance of their front court against one that even when healthy, was clearly outmatched but who had lost Dorka, mostly lost ONO, lost Aubrey as well, then we’ll just have to disagree! Let’s see what happens over the next three to four years. I’m predicting you, and especially the media, will be eating those words before Geno retires! The fact is, Boston single-handedly has made Dawn’s team practically unbeatable. Without an answer for her, no one is going to be winning without a brilliant game plan, full health, fair officials, and (perhaps) some of the other players not having career nights. She (Dawn) is enjoying what we did during the Stewie, Moore/Charles, Taurasi years. Even so, she’s only won one (with Boston) so let’s wait til it’s over before writing UConn’s obituary! She’s now had two players that many people would consider somewhat comparable to the aforementioned UConn greats and after seven tries, has two titles to show for it. Now that’s certainly something to be proud of but doesn’t even begin to compre to what Geno accomplished with his great players! So, spare me the “ changing of the guard” lines until we have a little more data than one unequal game! [/QUOTE]
