Ed Cohen and Debbie A. on the call.

Achonwa had a double-double last night.

 

[MilfordHusky]

USA has NEVER won 3 straight Golds in the World Cup. Is this the year? Geno won 2.

OMG. Did not realize it is on NBA TV. Yippee.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Charles, Clarendon, Gray, Ogwumike, and Sims draw the start.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Achonwa and Nurse start, not surprisingly. With 3 others.

[MilfordHusky]

Kia Nurse on the floor creates a jump ball. Classic Kia.

 

[MilfordHusky]

In-bounds play to Kia, who is fouled by Sims on a jumper. 2 FTs. Automatic.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Nurse hustles to get a steal. 6-2 Canada.

 

[MilfordHusky]

As Deb says, no flow to USA.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Nurse on a fast-break. 8-3 Canada

The team on the floor now isn’t going to win anything. Staying in the game (sorta) with defensive rebounding. Everything else sucks, no team play. Where did Clarendon come from and why is she here?

 

[MilfordHusky]

Napheesa is coming in. USA needs offense. AW in also.

8-5 Canada. USA looks sloppy. Poor entry passes.

 

[Kaizen]

Too bad I don't have NBA TV ...can only look the scores

 

[MilfordHusky]

Wilson missed a wild shot. 13-5 Canada

 

[MilfordHusky]

Diamond and Plum in too.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Fields (UCLA) hits a 3. 16-5 Canada.

Pheesa shooting FTs. 1-2

 

[MilfordHusky]

Pheesa's shot spins out.

19-6 Canada.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Stefanie in for Nneka.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Canada looks like the better team. 20-6.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Defection by Pheesa, but Plouffe scores off it.

22-6 Canada.
