Stanford game thread

[blaqtech]

They should not have gave continuous motion on that foul. That's way to far from the basket

 

[Samanthabrown3]

Now fouls evened up at 8-8.

I know this is going to sound harsh, but I wasn't sure if the praise for Stewie was deserved based on one NCAA tournament. Her struggle tonight to stay out of foul trouble and taking bad shots reminds me of last year.

Likewise, Jefferson is praised over 17 points against hartford. She is a liability out on the floor right now. I think their best lineup is with chong over Jefferson at this point.

They are both still really good players but really have to prove themselves.

 

[alexrgct]

I want more Bria and Stef!

 

[NutmegDog]

Can't believe they're putting the MD game on the U, which I don't get. Damn.

Some posts leave me dumbfounded. You can criticize Stewart's up and down regular season especially if she does it again this year.

But if your not sure the praise for Stewie was deserved based on the NCAA tournament you didn't watch it.

 

[pppggg]

you would think we tune in to the game to watch the refs.

Yup, sounds just a wee bit harsh.

Where in earth is Breanna Stewart?

That second foul was an awful call, then Morgan subs in and gets called 2 seconds later.
At least we're hitting our free throws.

Figured since any actual criticism on this board is usually misinterpreted haha.

The rules changes give them a chance to break in their bright and shiny new whistles.

 

[katiecrum1992]

Is Kaleena ok? I've never seen her miss this many 3's in a game let alone a half.

I watched every minute, as I have watched every minute since 1993.

Her play was spectacular. However, if a player has so much raw talent but struggles continually, you can't name a player preseason player of the year based on 6 games out of 39.

Come match, it may be a different story, as I hope it is.

 

[UConnChapette]

That was a very nice move by Orange. Wish Stef would stop with the threes.

 

[EricLA]

Note to Stef - KML is a better 3 point shooter. I get that you will be open, but that's not the best shot to take in this game...

 

[katiecrum1992]

Stef was 2 for 2 at Hartford she's probably a little hyped up.

 

[Vowelguy]

Everyone had been dissing orrange, but she's really good.

 

[JellyBean]

Bria with the nice three

 

[UConnChapette]

Hartley's motion is starting to look very KML like

 

[easttexastrash]

Stanford has little offense. I'm still amazed that some of the top programs have such poor shooters.

You're basing your criticism on less than 20 minutes of play in this game.

 

[EricLA]

How about the game by Hartley so far - 9 points, 2 assists, 5 rebounds. That's senior leadership.

 

[NutmegDog]

Stef on the break. great basketball there

 

[UConnChapette]

Nice running the floor by big momma!

Besides Ogwumike, yes. Orrange is doing pretty good too. But that jump shot she made is the longest Jakob I've ever seen her make.
