Message: [QUOTE="The deacon, post: 4588413, member: 11559"] Oh, Jazz... two choices, either I didn't watch the game, which I did, twice, or I'm a Nika hater? Come on. Why in the world would a 74 year old guy who loves UConn basketball, has been around sports all my life and is so appreciative of all that Nika brings to the team [I]hate[/I] a charismatic young woman I don't know? Perhaps I shouldn't have singled out Nika in my original post while trying to defend Caroline's three-point defense, but I was just trying to explain that Baylor plays really good three-point offense. That the Bears got off 29 three-pointers pretty much demonstrates that Nika, Caroline and all of their teammates had trouble defending their shots. See Nan's #158 post for her take. As I've said before, there are many on the Boneyard who see all that Nika does well, which is substantial, and blithely overlook her downsides. All of the Huskies are admirable young women, Jazz. I'd guess most if not all of their fans are also honest in their emotional attachment to the team. Before you call someone a [I]hater,[/I] you need a bit more reason than that person criticizing something about a player's basketball game. Enough, I'm moving on to other threads. Looking forward to your next post, as I always do. [/QUOTE]
