Message: [QUOTE="huskyd, post: 2511639, member: 6488"] Here's a first definition of "perfect": "having all the required or desirable elements, qualities, or characteristics; as good[B] [I]as it is possible to be[/I][/B]." Note that perfection here is not a condition but is aspirational. Because it is impossible to do everything perfectly in a basketball game, perfection cannot literally be achieved. Now, as good as "possible" is highly relative; what's good for UConn is far different from what's good for any other wcbb team. When Geno smiles at the end of a game and says that's as good as it gets, I take that to mean that [I]his team has done as well as HE believes it can do[/I]. His reaction at the end of the USF game (as well as mine) made that game "perfect"--the word I used to describe it in my first post about the contest. [/QUOTE]
