SEC Tournament Bracket and Discussion

If they eject both benches, and Cardoso is being ejected, doesn't that leave South Carolina with four players?
 
SOuth Carolina needs to spread the floor, kill some clock, and try to score. Oh... and protect the ball.
 
.-.
All the players for both teams that were on the floor playing get to stay. Pao Pao was at scorers table, so she and another SC player stay in. LSU only has 5 players for remainder of game. No additional game penalty for those that came off the bench.

And, IMHO, Cardoso should get more than 1 game suspension. The whole thing was just stupid, and every coach will use the tape to show players what's at stake.

And on the 10 edits I made, lordy.
 
Never mind. Just corrected. Only those involved in fight cannot play. So it’s Cordosa.

South Caroline needs to send the clip of Morrow’s punch to the SEC/NCAA. And it’s ridiculous that FJ only got the initial foul, not the shove.
 
Wow. Just checked the game on ESPN and saw it was on a delay. Heard about the hair pulling and thought that was it — but it turns out that was only in Q2!!! Sounds like the refs let the game get out of control FAST.
 
Oh man! I can't wait for the post game comments. I am expecting some shady comments.
 
Another thought ... the NCAAT referees are not going to tolerate anything from either of these two teams.

I wouldn't count on that.
 
NO CLASS by the "Players" (on both teams) for not shaking hands at the end of the game (ZERO SPORTSMANSHIP). However, allot of Class by both Coach Staley and Coach Mulkey, who did speak to the players from the other team, who were left, at the conclusion of the game. [and sorry to the mother LSU's Flau'jae Johnson, who was pleading to the Police not to lock up her son. The Police are going to send him off to jail and Flau'jae is going to have to spend allot of her NIL money to bail her brother out)
 
Morrow still got away with a punch in the melee, and she’s the player most responsible for the tone of this game.
Angel, Morrow, and Flau'jae were all responsible for the way this game played out. Should this continue, LSU won't last long in the NCAAs. Outside of the SEC, their act will not be tolerated.
 
And, the Stanford/USC game was moved to ESPNU for a bit, pre-empting the World Axe Throwing Championship :eek:

Angel Reese and FJ (until the two frustration fouls) were just committing John Stockton-type annoying fouls. I even think the F1 on Reese was a bit of bad luck and would have been fine against normal sized posts. Yeah, they knew what they were doing, but to the extent anyone thinks it was “dirty” play, it was dirty play within the acceptable and expected range.

Morrow was a menace all day. It was ridiculous that the announcing crew celebrated her elbow that would have sent someone to the hospital had she connected, and she had several lesser but also potentially injurious plays, including an elbow to Kitts away from the ball in the 1st Q. Even her kind of shove from behind in the final seconds was ridiculous given the score and situation.
 
I have no issue with Kamilla being tossed. She is a hothead and needs to be reprimanded for such. However, I have a HUGE issue with Angel, Morrow, and Flau'jae being allowed to repeatedly taunt, flop, talk trash, and incite violence without any sort of consequence. This is a major failure on behalf of that officiating crew and a huge eyesore for the SEC. You had an LSU player's family member jump onto the court for !
 
Both teams wear their emotions on their sleeves and need to learn to fuel it into game performance. I'm ok with some competitive jawing but I was very disappointed that Cardoso let it get to her. With that said, the refs let it get out of hand and I was also very disappointed by the behavior on both teams at times.
 
Didn’t Cardoso have a similar shove when she was playing for Brazil recently?
She did, and as I said earlier, this is not a good look for her. This has become a major part of her brand, and she'd better get that cleaned up if she wants to reach her potential in the WNBA.
 
.-.
I wish she wouldn't but Cardoso is gonna do that 10 out of 10 times. Jk. She did it recently on her national team, she's done it earlier in the season. I don't love it but idk I kinda think that's how she's wired. I also think she just shoved her, it's not like she swung. I think she was rightfully ejected but don't love that she is suspended. Maybe it's a learning moment for her, and something Dawn can coach her on for her remaining time in SC. As everyone has said, I do think the refs did a really poor job. There could've been like 5 taunting techs.

I'm disappointed in Kamilla, too. However, I'm even more disappointed in Angel, Aneesah, and Flau'jae for the role they play(ed) in this senselessness. They know what kind of stigma is placed on players who look like them, yet they feed right into the stereotypes with their nonsense. It's not a good look, but it doesn't appear that they care.

The more and more we see from these LSU players (those three and you can toss Hailey Van Lith in there as well), the more I'm gutted for Aliyah. She deserved a second natty. Angel didn't deserve it.

I agree re Morrow, but Angel pulled Kamilla's hair and elbowed her in the face--all in the first half. She never should've been around to play in the second half.
