ND will win on Monday

[huskeynut]

Yup, we're DOOOOMED!

I guess I should stay home and not cheer for my team. This has to be the worst Uconn women' team ever and the coaching staff has not done their job.

Rubbish would be better. I like tripe.

Reading entrails is a long and storied if questionable profession.

Oh ye of little faith......

GO UCONN!

I just finishes watching that Marq game Geno style and this team is so out of sorts that one day will not fix all their problems......How many times does every player need to get beat off the dribble before they start to fix the problem. Here are my reasons for ND Victory on Monday: Thoughts from Geno;s Show on Sat......Now, I watch games differently.......

1. No PG for UC
2. No Post toughness or Post presents.
3. Poor team defense.......Cannot keep their man in front of them.
4. Cannot stop the dribble drive and ND will expose them over and over
5. Poor spacing on offense that causes poor passing and no open Passing lanes.
6 ND is too physical and they will force 20 turnovers Min.
7. Bria has lost her confidence and misses too many open J's
8. KML is still a freshmen and is prone to mistakes to cover up for the other poor guard play.
9. Too many players playing out of position. Geno is right when he said players do not know how to play BB from a court management and skills and missing BB IQ.......Too many AAU games with poor fundamentals and no coaching.
10. College coaches are now left to start remedial BB.......

When Marq runs a basic inbound play 4 times and scores.......How does that happeen? If your stomach can stand to watch last nights game again, look for all of the above.

ND 78 UCONN 68

Are you really a UCONN Fan or an imposter?

Love it, how timely!

Y'know, there is a passing resemblence to a younger Geno, and..Shea maybe?..

Great, now I start my day with vertigo!

 

[justML]

I think we found the poster/Tweeter who's been aggravating Geno.

Nothing like a positive post to start my day.

Hang on, Jimmy!

Guess what, Geno has a big surprise for ND and that is the reason he sat the 2 Bigs on Sat.........Watch out?.........

Damage control won't work now, Mr. ChickenLittleJr.

If UConn wins tonight you won't be able to show your Chickenyard handle again for years w/o getting laughed off the board.

Throughout his posting career, jsloanjr has been trying to displace Tony as Optimus Prime by running to the less substantive side of Pollyanna.

Then, like Kafka's Gregor Samsa, our reliable sloanopian hero awoke one morning to find himself transformed into the AntiSloan -- a giant hypercritical insect.

And the AntiSloan, with its big multifaceted bug eyes, can easily see the Marquette game as a 40 point loss by a 3-26 team -- and, aha, the underlying defects of the team are such that it could've been worse.

You might think something's a little screwed up here.

You'd be right.

 

[Icebear]

Of course, as he noted most all of that came from the Geno Show. Geno was in something of a funk.

and sticky!

Leads to palming the ball, another reason we're going down.

Perhaps you mean dystopian?

Why quibble over synonyms?

 

[easttexastrash]

I want to see the list of reasons that UCONN wins. I've watched both teams play and I see very little difference between the two. The only difference that I see right now is a slight advantage in the paint going to Peters and Achonwa.

Novosel is a great player and maybe the best that ND has rooster. Guard play should be very entertaining and Hartley seems to play her best on a big stage.

Hayes and McBryde may be the X factors.

 

[boontonbomber]

enough with all of the witty comments. why no specific rebuttals of jsloanjr's points? is this the best that this board can come up with? personally, i find a lot of what he says makes sense. who is the point guard, or isn't there one? are the posts playing well? is the team defense as stifling as they were earlier this year? is the half-court offense getting open shots, or is the scoring coming from having superior individuals? pleased with the defense against out-of-bounds plays? marquette is not the only team to have taken advantage there. perhaps the lack of substantive responses is because people are finding it hard to find arguments with what he said.
regarding ND, does anyone really think, player to player, position to position, that uconn matches up favorably with them?

Or perhaps the board consensus is that the OP has a long-standing history of staring threads akin to this just to raise a ruckus and get attention rather than actually trying to stimulate substantive dialogue.

 

[Icebear]

It wasn't meant to have responses.

It set the proper tone for the game, "We're DOOOOOOOOOMED!!!"

i think that his comments should have stimulated substantive comments. and there are none in sight.
