Do UConn blow outs lack entertainment value?

I think even the casual fan could appreciate the defensive intensity, steals, blocks, fast break, and stellar shooting. One team was really, really good.

Only if you pay attention to the score. Ignore the score. Watch the play unfold. The passes. The blocks. The fast breaks. That's what makes basketball, especially UConn Women fun to watch.

Very true...for a while, then most non Husky fans will flip channels or go shopping.

Husky fans will watch every second...then maybe a few replays...before the next game

Never boring.

I love the anticipation of not being able to wait to see what they do next. Its kinda like a mystery when you don't know what to expect but you know something is going to happen.

Then the doors just came off and it became just a marvel of team ball.

And then Kiah Stokes came in...

And then all the U-turns start.

If a fan loves basketball then I think they found this game entertaining. If they need close, competitive contests to maintain interest, then they likely wouldn't watch the second half.
One of the things I love about following this team is the purity of the play regardless of the score. It remains exemplary basketball even when the result is long since decided. In the men's game, perhaps due to the different nature of their game, a blowout tends to devolve. It can become showboating, dunking and chest thumping. Perhaps exciting for the hometown fans, but often sloppy and not team ball. UConn women tend to keep playing within the team concept (or Geno wont play them!) and still impressive to watch from a team basketball standpoint.
Were fans bored watching Secretariat win the Belmont by 30 lengths?
