I never understood holding the ball like that. You have 30 seconds...and gift the defense with having to play only 10 seconds of defense. At the very least...pass the ball so start the defense moving. Heck...someone may slip or not switch and you get a layup!
Every time I listen to her she reminds me of watching Seinfeld- "Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah". This constant nonsensical babble while you are trying to watch the game is a disservice to women's basketball.
Don't you have to actually know the rules to get on it?
She has managed to keep her verbosity at supersonic levels nevertheless.
Did she mention the Bisque?
Last week she ranked them eighth.
Who is?
And if we compare South Carolina's games throughout the season... they beat UCONN by only 4 points...their smallest margin of victory all season. Yes, they played into Overtime against Standford early in the season and recently against Mississippi, but their final MOV was more than 4 points.
Oh c'mon. lol.
Ball don’t lie.
IU’s success will depend on Scalia, who if not guarded can sink 6-8 threes. No one else has anybody like that coming off the bench. Any team has to contain MacKensie and Berger; it’s very difficult to stop three people at once, particularly since Parish and Garzon are also really excellent from the arc. IU is a total handful; six really explosive players. No one else has that; plus, they play defense and they have a fantastic coach. No one wants to play them, including SC.
I have seen a lot of women’s teams this year and I have only seen two that are noticeably better than UConn. (IU and SC). Who have you seen that “strains credulity”? Asking for a friend. He would like to know why his optimism is “irrational”.
If she does them differently, that is a problem. If she only blah, blah, blahs the womens' games, she obviously feels the need to do so or the powers that be tell her to do so. Either way, it is latent sexism.
They are presently, and have been for some time the 3rd betting favorite, behind SC and Stanford, to win the NC.
Her son went to Clemson.
I’m sure even that was painful for her.
Do you have to know grammar rules to get on it? Because that might be problematic.
We laugh but it is possible.
It's hard to find any grammar at all in Blah, Blah, Blah. If she ever actually told you things like what number team and personal foul it was, how many time outs were left, what the shooting percentages were or even the score I would fall off my chair.
I think of an overtime win or loss as a MOV of less than 1, when considering how strong teams are. South Carolina's games against Stanford and Ole Miss were closer than their game against Connecticut.
It's going to be like last year when Kim screamed that her seeding was all wrong with the #3 seed in the Spokane Region. Then LSU barley beat #14 seed Jackson St 83 - 77, then lost to #6 seed Ohio State 79 - 64 and this was on their home court. Most likely whoever she plays in the second round should have a chance of beating them.
I heard that word about a dozen times within a few weeks 4 or 5 years ago, and mercifully not since. It's even worse than "mentoring", but not as bad as "mentee".
