Pac-12 Tournament thread

This is where you’re supposed to say “but all the other players have been deterring to her. They’ll step up, I know they can!”

As you recently said, I call it like I see it.

Oh, you're right, Rooks, Griggsby and Pleskovich are totally gonna light it up next season...

7-0 Utah run, now only trailing by 1.

 

[nwhoopfan]

What?! Melgoza was diagnosed w/ ADHD after her Fr. year, I've never heard that before.

I think many people on this site have yet to be diagnosed with ADHD...

 

[nwhoopfan]

Melgoza has gone cold and picked up her 3rd foul. Maxwell heating up for Utah. All tied at 42, about mid Q3.

 

[nwhoopfan]

When did blocking out become a foul? Whole lotta whistles going in Utah's favor in Q3. Utes up 2 now.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Wynn doing stupid offense/defense subbing w/ Melgoza, but it keeps meaning she's not on the floor. Game getting away from them this quarter. 49-42. Maxwell killing them, has 11 this quarter I believe.

Trying to protect her from getting a 4th foul, which would be disastrous.

That's the theory. But the game is totally getting away from them now, they can't score.

 

[nwhoopfan]

UW closely studied ASU's 2nd half collapse and are trying to duplicate it.

I think it was someone else who said you call it like you see it. I then added that you have very exacting standards

 

[Plebe]

Hahaha another Missy Barlow special

 

[nwhoopfan]

Melgoza has gone cold, 1-5 this quarter I think.

Pendande w/ an elbow to Melgoza's head, refs don't even look at it. Doesn't look much different than the intentional foul called against Cal in the earlier game.

 

[nwhoopfan]

52-48 thru Q3.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Kiana Moore has repeatedly literally put her hand ON Melgoza's face when guarding her. That can't be legal can it? Should get T'd up for that crap.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Was down to 2, now an 8 point lead for Utah. Maxwell up to 17, I think she had 3 in the first half.

So now Utah is the dirtiest team in the conference? Maybe Rueck should call a press conference about this.

Have you ever seen that before? Would you be concerned if someone was doing that to a UConn player? "Get a hand in her face" is a phrase, but I've never seen it done literally.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Gylten drains a 3 as the shot clock was expiring.

oops, toe on the line, still a big clutch shot

 

[nwhoopfan]

TOs are about even, but it's been a tale of 2 halves in that regard. UW turning it over like crazy in 2nd half.

UW looked just about dead in the water down 10, but a 3 and and-1 back to back give them some life.

Griggsby stepping up for UW.

Oops, missed the FT.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Pendande w/ some easy pickings against Lilliputian Husky lineup.

Melgoza notches another 30 point game.

68-62 4 minutes left.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Several huge defensive lapses by UW giving up wide open layups.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Lynne Roberts has never won a Pac 12 Tourney game. That's gonna change in 40 seconds. 70-63 Utes. Too much Maxwell and Pendande in the second half.

Well that's fitting, another injured Husky to end the year. Watkins went down hard as she attempted a block. Down on her back, hasn't moved for a couple minutes.

Wow hard to believe she’d never won until now. So she’s now 1-4 in P12T games? (1-5 after tomorrow?)

Utah exacts some revenge for their season ending tourney loss last year. Sad to see the end of a really brilliant career by Melgoza. She really shined on an otherwise mostly lackluster team for 3 whole seasons. She had 30 big points in her last game but she did have some crucial misses down the stretch that might’ve kept UW in the game

So...how do you think the UW offense is gonna look next year without her? I'm really, really scared of what's coming next.

What a great game between UCLA vs Oregon. Refs haven't been so favorable to UCLA.

You must be watching a replay of a previous season's tourney. Neither of those teams is playing today, and certainly not against each other.

Stand corrected. Thank you for informing me.

Moore is pesky. That should have been a foul or tech every time she touched Melgoza's face. Extremely disrespectful. Thankfully, we don't see that much in sports. Would have led to fights back in my day.

Nope. ASU still is. Rueck seems to have moved on to focusing on his own team recently. Seems to be working better that way.
