Not an easy place to play in or win in, so we have to put this game away early by shutting down the 3s. That means clean switches, fighting through the screens and boxing out to eliminate second chances where the 3s will be open. On offense, the turnovers have to be reduced. Let's keep them around the 10 mark if possible, not the 17 we averaged in the last 2 games. To do that we need to not force passes or one on one moves, not move on our screens, and to play focused. Above all else on offense, Paige has to keep taking charge from the beginning and setting the tone so everyone else can join in. Let's play crisp and sharp and get this done!

I think the women remember all too well what happened the last time they played in Milwaukee and Aaliyah, in particular will want to make a statement to that crowd as she only had 8 points last year. Plus this year we a player now on our roster who missed that game, give me a second and I will review the roster to come up with her name....

Oh wow! I know that I would have found out in time, but I was under the impression that the game started at 8PM. 
The fans in Milwaukee will find out that that win was an Anomaly and will feel the full power of a well oiled team that is on a mission to the ultimate goal..........NO.1. Aaliyah is playing her best basketball , scoring and rebounding. Last year we didn't have Paige and our 2 super freshmen. This year our with the three in the first game was a smack down and get ready for another. GO FRESHMEN!!! CO HUSKIES!!!!I think the women remember all too well what happened the last time they played in Milwaukee and Aaliyah, in particular will want to make a statement to that crowd as she only had 8 points last year.

I was too, I have the closing of the Prognosticator's Predictions at 7:45 Eastern instead of 6:45 Eastern. I believe that when I looked at my games print out I saw the time of the ND game and used that. I posted a correct in the thread. I'm not going to ask the mods to change it, too embarrassing twice in a little over a week.Oh wow! I know that I would have found out in time, but I was under the impression that the game started at 8PM.

Do you mean the well-known Scottish player named Blaise Checkers about whom someone suggested the Minnesota Lynx might tank in the preceding season so they could draft her?
Cheryl Reeves vigorously denied that the Lynx would ever do that.
