wonder how many pts off TOs for ND tonight? every time we turn it over we let them back in

 

[Dove]

Lou, Pheesa, and Gabby will have to go close to 40 in every big game (unless foul trouble). That's the reality this year, and they better get used to it.

No worries. They're kids.

 

[Blue Huskie]

Refs love blowing the whistle on shots. Even if there's really no foul.

 

[StephStorrs]

KLS hits both!

 

[HoopsFan21]

OK let's make them pay for that turn over

 

[huskeynut]

Crystal Dangerfield!!!!!!!!

 

[pinotbear]

God damn Crystal that was stupid and turned immediately into points

that's it, pick on and swear at the freshman, during the 8th game of her college career...

 

[huskeynut]

Gabby!!!!!!

 

[huskeynut]

Gabby with the block!

 

[HoopsFan21]

This reminds me of the 2015 title game, right down to the score. KML is about to score 11 straight

 

[Dove]

Turner reminds me of Tamika Williams.

Gabby, Pheesa and KLS are wonderful. Kia is nearly zero offense, what happened? She played so well for team Canada. I hope Chong is ok, haven't seen her since the knock by Turner. UConn 50 - 43.

My personal take on Kia? She's inconsistent because she's emotional, extremely hard on herself, and gets very frustrated very easily. And she'll always be better defensively, and more consistent defensively, than she is offensively. I'll always want a huge game from her, but I'm not going to expect lights out shooting like she had against DP because I know it's not overly likely to have that consistently.

Then again, this is an observation knowing what Geno has said, what we've seen, and what Kia says about herself. They don't pay me the big bucks to coach the team so this is just personal opinion!

 

[huskeynut]

Pheesa!!!!!!

 

[HoopsFan21]

Let's eat some clock here

 

[HoopsFan21]

58-50 4:39 4th, Kia to shoot FTs

 

[JordyG]

UConn starting to exert their will.

UConn starting to exert their will.

Players got to be dead tired, I think KLS and Kia have played every minute, maybe Gabby too.

 

[Tenspro2002]

In the bonus now -- no reason not to attack the rim on every possession.

 

[huskeynut]

ND starting to look a little tired. Let's push it to the end!

I think you are correct.

 

[WBB_FAN_WA]

Kia finally drives to the basket and drew a foul, yay!

 

[Schoup]

Next 2 possessions could be the game..Push the lead to 10 and then get a stop and another basket would be almost lights out b/c Geno is already milking the clock to shorten the game.

 

[HoopsFan21]

60-50 4:39 4th

 

[huskeynut]

lead is up to 10!

 

[huskeynut]

Pheesa!

 

[StephStorrs]

And 1! KLS going to the line.

 

[HuskyNan]

Not Jackie's knee, please, no no no...

 

[Dove]

We have to savor every season we have left Geno. He is amazing.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Hope Young is OK, ND has had some bad luck with freshman injuries lately
