Looking forward to this one, getting close to game time.

CMU coach dissing Oregon's players a bit? Sounds like a brilliant strategy.

Yeah, Hebard just shoots layups. Nobody has tried to stop her from doing that all year. CMU's coach will be the first to try to address that apparently...

 

[nwhoopfan]

Cold start for both teams. Oregon bricking 3's.

 

[nwhoopfan]

CMU's coach was right. All Hebard does is make layups. They aren't preventing her from doing it though.

 

[nwhoopfan]

10-4 Oregon, first media TO. Hebard 3-3 from the floor. All layups.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Teams are a combined 0-9 behind the arc. Anybody predict that?

 

[Reypl21]

I haven't watched a angle Central Michigan game this tournament. The announcers were saying that they've been on fire from the 3. Their 3s look like prayers. None of them look like they are going in.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Coming out of the break both teams drill a 3. Here we go!

 

[Reypl21]

Heard looks like she walks a lot

 

[nwhoopfan]

Ducks bigs having their way inside. CMU looks overmatched. How did tOSU get blown out on their home floor by this team? 22-12 UO, 45 seconds left Q1.

 

[nwhoopfan]

24-12 after Q1.

 

[wbball novice]

Ducks defense doesn't seem that bad; thought they had a bad reputation there. They can certainly score in bunches.

 

[nwhoopfan]

CMU 5-17 shooting, Oregon 11-20. Both teams cold behind the arc but UO has other options. If CMU doesn't get hot this is going to get UGLY.

I think their defensive deficiencies were exaggerated. And they've improved. They've really stymied some teams recently w/ an extended zone, lots of length.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Not really a fan of CMU's coach.

 

[wbball novice]

2Q is pretty ugly basketball for the most part

 

[nwhoopfan]

30-16 UO 5:17 in Q2. Ducks really aren't even playing very well, should be up 20 or 25. CMU can't hit the broad side of a barn.

 

[CMC'72]

I'm thinking Oregon is the team who will challenge UCONN the most.

 

[nwhoopfan]

33-20 3:52 til halftime. Hebard crushing CMU.

 

[eebmg]

Ionescu having a subpar game for her. It's like she decided to see if Oregon can beat teams without her.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Sabally is having a bad game. 0-4 behind the arc, all 3 of the team's turnovers. Scored a few in the paint but overall not playing well.

Cazorla nearly invisible as well. Hebard has been great but overall this is a pretty bad game by the Ducks so far.

 

[nwhoopfan]

38-20 inside a minute left.

 

[nwhoopfan]

40-25 halftime. Hopefully will be a better played 2nd half.
