Game thread: BE Final [merged]

[meganmatthews]

ND looks nervous on the bench.

 

[VAMike23]

Smart play by Kelly just to hit the rim to get the new shot clock

Hmm well she showed heart on that posssession.....!......But my heart was about to expire watching her dribble !!

 

[JellyBean]

Oh my word.

 

[meganmatthews]

OHHH MYYYY GODDD!!!!

 

[Vowelguy]

That was so epicly bad.

 

[VAMike23]

Once again, could not take advantage of an opportunity, primarily because we were not sure enough with the ball.

Couldn't get a quality shot at the end. That hurts.

 

[4UConn]

That really hurts...

 

[meganmatthews]

Cannot explain what I just witnessed!

 

[ghostmutt]

It's the same players and the same script every time. Incredible.

 

[Gurleyman]

That was the worst coaching job coming out of a TO that I have ever seen. Geno should be embarrassed. What the hell. Just get it inbounds an get the last shot.

 

[CONNFAN23]

Keep talkin, man. That's some crazy reverse mojo you've got working there.

Like I said GAME OVER

 

[Deadrody]

Are there any MORE ways the refs can screw up a game ? ND players CLEARLY getting fouled and fouled and fouled coming down the court. Why ? UConn has a foul to give. Ah, but that only matters if the officials CALL a foul. Nice.

 

[UConn990411]

Horrible play by your senior, and Geno doesn't bail his team out by calling time.

This team deserves to get ripped to shreds for that.

 

[Blue Huskie]

What a groin kick ending.

 

[OneTrickPony]

Merde...

 

[VAMike23]

Well I have to agree, that was an epically bad final possession. Kelly's pass put KML in a tough position, then KML's pass back out top was ill-advised........

Not sure why we couldn't get a couple more bodies back to defend but maybe we were just too far behind the play.


Damn, damn, damn.

 

[JellyBean]

Speechless.

 

[Gurleyman]

Hold for the last shot. We try a backdoor crosscourt lob off an inbounds with 17 on the clock? That's completely asinine.

 

[ghostmutt]

Like I said GAME OVER

Bria made up for the two bad plays she made down the stretch by making two good ones.

Quite frankly, I would have love to have seen Bria handling the ball on the last play because everyone who touched it passed it off like a hot potato.

 

[bruinbball]

The screwed up clock really messed up the entire finish.

 

[Kait14]

WHYYYYYYY didn't Geno call a timeout?!?!?! HE HAD TWO LEFT!

 

[jplotinus]

It was not meant to be :-/

 

[Stinger92860]

That's the play you call after a timeout? You don't hold for last shot?

 

[Gurleyman]

Notre Dame should not have touched the ball again in regulation. Period. That whole play was one idiotic pass after another.

 

[Stinger92860]

WHYYYYYYY didn't Geno call a timeout?!?!?! HE HAD TWO LEFT!

This

 

[stick]

Hold for the last shot. We try a backdoor crosscourt lob off an inbounds with 17 on the clock? That's completely asinine.

Unreal possession. For some reason, the women's game has no idea how to play for 1 possession. Plus you have 2 timeouts, why panic?

 

[Kait14]

It's like Geno drew up a play, and they ran the complete opposite of what he drew up

 

[WNBARookFan]

There is NO excuse not to take your time with 18 seconds on the clock. That's just inexcusable.

 

[CCinCT]

Nice comeback try, but smarter basketball would have helped. \

PS - I dislike Diggins intensely, but she is better than our guards.

 

[luckyhusky7]

man oh man.....what was that? In the famous words of Geno ""
