Agree that Z and others were afraid to take the moves to the basket that, at the least, could have given us more foul shot opportunities.  
Granted, we saw the best of Westbeld, Young and Shepherd we'd held in check in previous games.  Difficult to say we were out-coached but Z's early heroics were not rewarded by the second-half starting five.  20-20 hind sights says we didn't have the luxury of waiting to start another run with the starters.  I know we could have won it on Gabby's last shot and there would be no gnashing of teeth, but our guys deserved better.  Kudos to ND, their game plan and their execution.  Back in 2013, we didn't need Kia Stokes to do more than a few put-backs, but last night we needed Gabby to be comfortable with what they were giving her and that's not going to happen until the WNBA.  I'm grateful to our team for a wonderful year of beautiful basketball, enduring all the hurts, playing through injury to give all fans a look at what we've come to expect and enjoy, basketball at its best.
