Message: [QUOTE="jonson, post: 4442884, member: 6034"] I think that playing without their leading scorer (playiing for the Swedish national team) and shooting something like 28% on Thursday (and not because ISU was great defensively) was likely to lead to a major swing of the pendulum in the opposite direction (and it did, with one player who had only 3 3's last season matching, or maybe outdoing, that today. Plus--consistency for this Oregon team is clearly a work in progress. The major step forward here was that they won the second half of the fourth quarter fairly decisively; had they played that well (then) Thursday, they would have won that game as well. As for your compatriot, PK, she's had her best two games against the best two teams Oregon has played so far, and with some serious effort all around to get her the ball as much as possible--for points, obviously, but also to speed up her development as much as possible. And it seems to be working. [/QUOTE]
