Based on the final score and the overall way the team played, I was very surprised.  I expected SC to crush us by at least 20 points.  Had Geno not shot the team in the foot with that untimely technical, we might have even won?  Sometimes coaches purposely light a fire under a team by getting a technical foul called on them.  However, our fire was already lite at that time and his act nearly put it out.  It's hard to be critical of Geno, but this was not his finest coaching game.

Coach Staley knew we had no one other than Lou who could score 3s consistently, so she draped her defensively as often as possible.  Zia Cooke did an outstanding job on her individually.

With a healthy Azzi and/or Caroline we could easily have won this game.  At present Patterson is pretty much an offensive liability.  So why wasn't Amari (one of those 6'5" players Geno wished he had to use against SC), used until the last 17 seconds of the game??? Another minus rating in Geno's coaching in this game.

Kamilla Cardoso would start on any other team in the country and most likely have a shot at NPOY.
