Message: [QUOTE="tomcat, post: 3020493, member: 961"] What y'all said. All of it. Better team won? Yup. On another day, could UConn have won? Well sure, but a lot of things would have to go differently. Shot selection sucked. I even saw Dangerfield jack up a quick shot, and she;'s not known for doing that. Collier made some big plays but missed a lot of 7-foot-or-less shots. This team just doesn't -- or can't -- give her the few inches of space she needs to make shots. Walker is developing slowly, but is coming along, and on another UConn team at another time, she would be just fine. On this team, because of its needs, she is trying to do more than she is ready to do. But man, do I like the way she gets up there for rebounds. Williams is in much the same situation, but she's a freshman. It appears that with the configuration of this team, opponents can devote more time and effort to guarding Katie Lou, and it shows in her shooting. As an aside.I have no idea how negative people got in the chat room. I don't go there because I want to watch the game, but I think the tone of the posts here has been about what it should be: We're disappointed. We see things that another UConn team would have done differently and we're trying to figure out why this one can't. All those things apply to me. I was very disappointed with the team's performance. Louisville was better, but it really did not have to be that way. Whoever said this UConn team is playing without emotion is spot on I never thought I'd reach this conclusion, but if this is the level of play against good competition, this team, depending on match-ups, could not get beyond the Elite Eight.
