The kid is a competitor and she probably wants to beat UConn. Johnson is a senior -this could be her last chance. I don’t blame her for getting emotional.

Wanting to beat UConn badly and playing with emotion doesn't mean you have act like an idiot either, Whatever just a difference in opinion.
 
Do some of our residents worrywarts know UConn’s starting point guard isn’t playing today? That’s a big reason it took the offense a while to get started. Crystal is also an underrated perimeter defender who can keep her man from penetrating.

Baskets in the Paint at the Half
Johnny Bench 2 + 5 = 7
UConn 6 + 0 = 6


Double checking the play by play there were only 2 baskets for UConn in that quarter that were 2 pointers. Jump shots by Collier and Stevens and I dont think Colliers was in the paint. I know Stevens wasnt.

Syracuse giving Louisville all they can handle.

Not that Cuse can't play tough but this is so typical for L'Ville. Play mediocre in the 1st half and come out in the 2nd with a sense of purpose. Unless of course they are playing a higher ranked team - then it's hard all the way.
 
It looked to me that the majority of the bench players couldn't defend their player if their life depended on it. Oh wait , their UConn life does! I am guessing that is why Walker and Coombs didn't stay on the floor very long.
 
Our defense goes from very good to stumped. Coombs came on fairly early from the bench and was beaten badly on a number of defensive plays. Our bench took a step back imho. :(
 
Final basket at buzzer made score 52-32, now says 52-30, did I miss something?
 
I'd like to see Team 2 especially Z play well this period. She really looks like she's just over thinking everything.
 
Good block on a sure basket by Kyla.
 
Well. Geno certainly sending a message to Z

C'mon Nan. It has absolutely nothing to do with gender but self aggrandizement. The checkmeout, look at me, it's all about me, posterizing stuff that made me follow only WBB. Now, if she'd blocked that shot, slapped palms and urged her fellow players on, I'm on her side.

...in your opinion. I didn’t see anything close to what you thought you saw. And your post made it sound like you disapproved of a woman acting like a man.

If women’s basketball is no longer genteel enough for folks, there’s always the golf team.
 
Frankly SoCar didn't play one minute as physical as Cincy is today.

I would just like to chime in. Nothing to do with men or women, an athlete/sports thing. I dislike when a football player sacks someone or breaks up a pass and acts a fool. Especially when you are losing by a lot. Again act like you have been there, unless it a big play in a key moment.
