Griner's really, really good. Baylor not so much.

Sort of like us with Diana?

If I am A & M I am looking for White to try to get 3 and 4 on Griner early in the second half.

My hand hovered over the key board to add that very thought. Yeah, pretty much.

When Griner goes out it usually takes the offense a couple of minutes to adjust. Part of the problem with this game is that Baylor looked away from Griner too much early or the lead would have been bigger. Too many bad shots by the guards when BG had her defender sealed.

Great D...leave the ball to defend the three point shooter.

 

[easttexastrash]

Thanks goodness for Sims. Big game usually equals big numbers.

 

[easttexastrash]

No post defense without Griner. I would have Agbuke in the game. At least she has some mass and takes up some space.

Keeping it surprisingly close . . .

Hayden and BG on the bench hurt. Hayden had been playing well recently but was completely out of control in the first half.

BG's fouls were legit. She is usually better at avoiding body contact. Her offense looked spectacular.

Oh well...it's a lead on the 11th ranked team's home court with BG on the bench for close to 7 or 8 minutes. Probably gonna look a lot different in the first 5 minutes of the second half.

Pretty cheap O foul on Hayden.

39-38 Baylor

Baylor guards not doing a good job of feeding the ball to Griner and Mulkey is letting it happen. It's simple...give the ball to Griner and you win. TAMU cannot stop her. She will have Bone and Gilbert fouled out at the 10 minutes mark if they just feed her the ball.

Griner 3rd foul

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Gilbert 4th foul

Gig em Aggies

Gilbert fouls out

How does ESPN not show a replay on that one?

Horrible job.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

So why wasn't it a foul when that Baylor player with the ball elbowed the A&M defender in the chest from about two feet away?????

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Take over team, I am off to dinner! Go T A & M ...make a mess of the rankings.

 

[easttexastrash]

Feed it to Griner and both Bone and Gilbert will be gone at the 10:00 minute mark as I said. Either that or Bone will have to stand back and let Griner go. Either way, it's a win.

Wow! Gilbert's last foul call was kinda bad. I wouldn't of called it. Pretty ticky tack and Bone gets called for a cheap screening foul. I hate to see this game lose it's pizzazz because of the refs.
