Message: [QUOTE="Littlemin, post: 4229399, member: 10363"] There was not a player Uconn put on the floor that played badly. Shooting comes and goes, good defense and team play does not. Like South Florida with Fudd, by and large Bueckers got wide open shots yesterday and made them and the “Paige is back“ brigade came out of the woodwork; give her a break, she is coming back from a serious injury and it will take the time it takes for her to come all the way back. Fudd appears to be a streak shooter but takes good shots and there is nothing about her game that hurts you even if she is off. As Husky Nan pointed out, Ducharme may have lost her offensive mojo a bit but I’ll say the same thing, she doesn’t hurt you one iota even when not scoring. This is no one or two person team and I get a kick out of the “oh, horrors, we lost the 2nd half” lamenting. I commented when the game ended in the chat room, that I remember the dismissive attitude many posters had about the teams 2nd half against Oregon, saying it was meaningless and only made the final score deceptively close; well, Marquette plays the 2nd half today with the same pride and intensity and the Uconn sky is falling - personally I don’t think so.
