Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3323184, member: 5798"] In the days leading up to this game, it was just another game on the schedule for team USA, nothing special or to write home about. Not so for Oregon. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity to play against some of USA's best professional women BB players at home. Ionescu and her mates took the right approach to the game: "Let's go out and have some fun, play hard, and see how close we can stay to them". Whether team USA was motivated or not, they ARE grown professional women who's skill level and understanding of the game supersedes anyone on Oregon's roster. Oregon shocked the world with this monumental upset. As someone said yesterday, this win by the Ducks was tantamount to a shot fired across the bow of WCBB. The number 1 ranked Ducks (and Baylor) are going to be a real tough nut to crack this year, and the teams to beat, especially at home. I wouldn't want to be the next team on USA's schedule. [/QUOTE]
