The thing is, the number of flops as opposed to the number of flops that got fouls called on UConn are not the same thing. It was hardly a major reason why the game was close. In the second half, UConn had something like 3 or 3 fouls total called on them, and the game tightened up anyway.
Doesn't matter how many calls were made in the second half. You cannot play real defense when you have 2 or 3 fouls right then and there at the beginning of the game. It is like playing with one arm tied behind your back and it set the tone for the whole game. The damage has already been done.
