Message: [QUOTE="Watchdog, post: 3837763, member: 10325"] I know it's sacrilegious to make allegations against the heirs to the legacy of the golden domers, especially the women, but their play is not tough, it's something more. Passive aggressive? Borderline dirty? We'll be able to better judge after the next game with them. Reminds me of the tactics of Georgetown's men's team in the 80's when Big John was coach. Just little things that become obviously intentional when you see them over and again. The most obvious was Taylor using a chest bump on multiple occasions on defense as well as the obvious shoulder to the jaw of Aaliyah when she took her out of the game. Watch that replay and you can see, even without slo-mo, that she intended to hit Aaliyah hard on her drive, and high with the shoulder. I'd like to believe the damage to AE's teeth or lips wasn't intentional but that hit was not accidental. It wasn't just that play either. Watch the three minute highlight video of Bueckers and you'll see Taylor chest bump her as she went up for the layup in the third quarter. Paige was defenseless and was knocked to the floor hard but no call was made. Taylor looks as if she's been taught to keep her hands to herself but use her chest to knock opponents off stride when they make their moves to the basket. [/QUOTE]
