She got better looks vs UCONN. When she had daylight from 3 against either team she was hitting shots. Difference was Wilson blanketed her all game in the final. When Aari forced it, shots weren't falling. She had a great showing vs UCONN but didn't exactly light it up, she shot 41% from the floor and went 8-11 from the line. Her efficiency and overall numbers were far better in regionals.
If that's true, it's a coaching issue.
I thought we did a really good job on her in the second half. She weaves through everybody to make a bank shot (the one Christyn fouled out on) where you tip your cap. But her early offense gave them a lead and their D was good enough to hold it.
Agree with this. First half is where she went off and created the separation, and she wasn't able to do that vs Stanford which was ultimately the difference in both games IMO. Against Stanford she started forcing the issue too much and played hero ball rather than looking to get teammates involved.
As incredible as Arizona played, and as poorly as UConn played, hitting 5 out of 20 layups was the difference in the game.
True
I trust her words. Goes to what Geno was saying about immaturity, not just on the court.
If it's true, it's a team issue.
I'd add in Sedona Prince
Wait! Did someone besides Christyn say they took them lightly?
When Paige and Evina were asked about it they didn't deny the statement from Christyn, they in fact promised not to take anyone light again. Christyn is a leader of the team, she represents the pulse of it, I believe she was honest when she said it.
That's really disappointing.
She was 7-17 against Uconn, marginally better but not remotely “unstoppable” as some have proclaimed.
Unbelievable!!
Never take any opponent for granted.
Indeed it is. They could've owned Stanford
