Message: [QUOTE="itsasport, post: 3514390, member: 306"] KML in the 2015 game against ND. She played the full 40 minutes (as did Jefferson and Stewie with 39) Tied with Mo with most points (15) and 50% from two point range. Of the 6 ND shots that were blocked, Stewie had four and KML 2. She tied with Stewie with 3 offensive rebounds. She was face-guarded by Jewel Lloyd for the entire game. Probably due to the fact that KML had put together two monster scoring runs in the national championships two years before. In the first period, with the game tied at 11, KML made a three pointer and on the next play, she made a lay-up. ND scored a two. UConn did not score, On the ND possession, she blocked the shot. ND never regained the lead. During the remainder of the game, UConn managed some big leads on clutch shots by UConn players, but ND made counter-runs. With about five minutes left in the game, a UConn lead of 12 had been reduced to six, and then KLM laid down the hammer on ND, scoring the next 7 points for UConn (unanswered by ND ) giving UConn a 13 point lead with 2:36 remaining. There was the great transition 3, followed by a 2 at the foul line- ND calls a time out to a roaring crowd, After the time out, ND didn't score and then was the most important basket of the game, and one of the sweetest plays in crunch time in UConn history, Every time Muffet thinks off this play, she must scream. I won't even try to describe it- watch it at about 2:36. So, in critical moments in two NC games, KLM put together two scoring runs to give UConn two National titles. And she was, at graduation, the highest 3-point shooter in history, and at 44.7 %, still holds the highest percentage of all the leaders above and below her by 2% points. The recent ESPN top ten UConn players thing, was idiotic, It should have been, at least, 11 with KML included. As with all great players, it is not just how much they score- but when. She was chosen to get the ball a critical moments and not only scored, but scored beautifully. [/QUOTE]
