Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 2052918, member: 3535"] 1-- Texas put a 5'9 guard on her and Lou got into early foul trouble in the 1st half and in the 2nd half the guard eventually got the player into foul trouble or fouled out. ND said they needed to put Young on her because she had more size. There was no 5'8 guard on Lou vs SC. It was the 6'0 Gray. And that was her worst game. Yet when she played vs Md it was Walker-Kimbrough at 5'11 and she was tremendous. So I don't see size having any impact. Wasn't her worst game with the 6'0 gray? But I think we can see her two worst efficiency games were the games in which Nurse was either hurt or didn't play. And are you sure in that 2-- I don't agree at all that Gabby has been able to get bigs out to guard her other than maybe Fla state. For example there was no way USC was guarding her outside 15 feet. And I'm near certain neither was ND. And if they were playing MD there was no way Jones could guard Gabby away from the basket. Those were thre of the top teams that could beat us. And imo thy employed the strategy. But I do think it is right to do. 3-- Sure-- but all year we have already played nearly all the most physical of teams, haven't we? And we beat them all. Wasn't there strategy to pound us physically and ot get to the bench? So if it hasn't worked with the most physical teams already - it doesn't seem like a blueprint. It just seems like the opposing team hopes to catch them off their game or they just play better. [/QUOTE]
