Game Thread: UCONN-Louisville National Championship Game

[meganmatthews]

Wow. I like Stewie. She just admitted that they are going to have a hard time guarding her.

I missed the foul on Mo Jeff. WHat happened?

The camera was focusing on Maya instead of the game.

 

[JellyBean]

19 point lead at the half. Way too close!

LOL. We think a like. I need a 25 point lead before I get comfortable.

 

[Flyegirl]

Good mojo folks, how to keep it positive.

Thanks for the gentle nudge earlier

UConn now 7 for 17 on threes

 

[Icebear]

I am really sad that Dudley DoRight did not get to enjoy this with friends.

 

[meganmatthews]

11 more points and Stewie will pass the entire Louisville team in scoring.

 

[JellyBean]

Wow. I like Stewie. She just admitted that they are going to have a hard time guarding her.

I know. She is so not a freshmen. Her basketball IQ is off the chart..if that is even possible. She is so smart. I am just glad that we have her on our squad, along with KML.

gotta keep pedal to metal first 10 minutes. Come on geno bria or mojo in backcourt till games over. Caroline unwilling to take wide open shots hurting us

We have a 19 point lead. And you want to take shots at Caroline? Lighten up, Frances.

 

[MilliniumPrince]

These refs should be indicted for blind incompetence

41% nice.

Maya Moore about to go on the set. That has to be good for continued second half mojo, right?

 

[pap49cba]

Rbds 25 (10) -14 (2) Uconn. T.O.s 9-6 Louisville leading. Shooting pct 46 - 33% Uconn leading. Asst 11 - 6 Uconn.

I am 100% certain she IS enjoying this with the friends that have gone before her. Probably laughing her off, if I know her!

Stewie is "oh my god" .....I am in awe and Geno has barely scratched the surface

 

[OneTrickPony]

Ms Maya...meet Ms Stewart...

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Well, gee willikers..... may not sleep tonight! Is there a run in Louisville?

 

[John Glass]

I love the fresh information Doris Burke has every game

" Stewart has a 7 ft 1 wingspan "

not again Doris, give it a rest

 

[huskies29]

Annoyed at the camera crew. Twice already this game missed action to see a useless graphic and maya sitting in a chair. Hey guys, this is the championship game. Geez.

I should point out Geno was looking right at that dope Emmert when he unburdened himself about the refs. #ncaaw #uconn

Great line.

Hey, don't tinker too much Geno!!!

Both had 2 fouls. I like holding them out given our big lead.

Geno to the suits at the table (including Emmert): Points to the officials and says, "That's why coaches bitch all the time." #ncaaw

And Geno is correct!

 

[alexrgct]

UConn just needs to play to win and not like they're up 19. If they do, Louisville will be very, very hard pressed to make a dent in this lead.

 

[OneTrickPony]

Beautiful basketball...

 

[huskies29]

john great post with the parrot. LOL. Wish you could e-mail it to doris

 

[RS9999X]

Just embarrassing for the doity birds. The fat lady is singing, the jets warming up, mission accomplished.

With that basket Breanna Stewart passes Maya Moore for the most points by a freshman in NCAA tournament since 2000 according to STATS
