That was a terrible call. From his angle couldn’t see the space between defender and shooter.

3 point game and ASU possession again. Reviewing a play, looked like an inadvertent elbow by a Cal player. ASU could still pull this one out.
That previous trip to the FT line was an egregious blown call. There was literally no contact, about a foot of separation between the shooter and the defender. You just can't blow a call that badly at such a critical juncture of the game.

Can’t throw an elbow knowing it’s likely to hit a face. That is not a bad call.

Another huge call coming up. Offensive foul on Tapley but looks like Brown's heel was inside the arc, reviewing it, probably gonna reverse it. Would be 5th foul on Brown.
Huh, they didn't change it. Not sure what they saw, part of her foot was in the circle.

That didn't look like a normal follow thru to you? I miss the old days, when a defender was up in your jersey, they were gonna get an elbow to clear them out of the way.

I could see the foot in the arc from where I was sitting. Not sure how that doesn’t get reversed

Please. If ASU threw an elbow like that you’d be talking about what a dirty team they are.

Brutal. Missed two open 3s that would’ve given them the lead. Now they foul and West hits both. That should be game. ASU out of timeouts.

Cal is really a befuddling team. They clearly have talent and they have some experienced pieces in Brown and West. Really no reason for them to have had the kind of season they had.
Lots of upsets in these early rounds of conference tournaments.

Well the first game just ended at 2. Second game will be almost 30 minutes behind schedule.

Arizona will be motivated. They’ll take it easily.

Schedule oddity, this will be Cal's 4th game in a row against the Arizona schools.
Really? The talent besides Brown that Cal has is youthful and prone to mistakes. There are plenty of reasons why Cal finished 3-15 in conference, namely Oregon, Stanford, UCLA, and Oregon State. Lack of mobile size is another problem for Cal.
ASU is challenged offensively and is capable of blowing a 15-point lead to the worst team in the conference on a neutral court. Richardson may have hit a number of clutch shots during her career, but she really isn't a good shooter from the field and her stats reflect that.
AZFan,
I noticed a significant decrease in the quantity of your posts during the second half. Take some solace in the reality that your team will be better rested for the NCAA tourney. OSU exited the conference tourney early the past two seasons, but then went 5-2 combined in the NCAA Tournament those two years.

As my be about ASU, but I can tell you that there was an article in the local (Tucson) paper this morning (pre-tourney), and yes, while the U of A angle was the whole point, from reading CTT's comments there is almost no doubt that ASU was looking ahead to avenging the 2 losses to UofA. I am 100% certain that this was a factor, based on the article.
Probably true, but a bad loss nonetheless. Plebe can probably project fairly accurately for us, but I would estimate at least a one seed decrease for an ASU team that was looking to improve its resume and had a great opportunity to do so in Vegas.
