Stanford game thread

[bruinbball]

Kiah is making some great interior passes.

The fact that UConn is not saying more leads me to believe that Kaleena’s injury may be a bad one. They are generally pretty quick with information with minor injuries like ankle sprains. I truly hope I am completely wrong.

Said it was a right arm injury.

What's up with Stewie tonite? Looking at the box score, it reminds me of last season when she had her bad stretch of games after such a great start to the season. Is she out of synch?

 

[EricSD]

Said it was a right arm injury.

That's her shooting arm. If it's badly damaged, it could affect her permanently. Ugh poor kid!!

Yes, I saw it as it happened. I used ankle sprain as an example.

Stef is going to get called for that off-arm hook on the defender this season

 

[01Neaggrad02]

Stewart is not impressing me tonight. Hope she figures it out

 

[sarals24]

They might be taking Xrays...

 

[sarals24]

I hope Banks gets the confidence to start slashing to the basket again. She was so effective doing that last season.

Kiah is a beast on the boards. Just what we needed tonight.

 

[RadyLady]

Tuck is the real deal. Love her sense of calm.

She is one of my favorites.

Stef's D has been magnificent tonight.

agree. She has been stellar

I think Stewie's defense was good tonight, offense was a little off, but she had some nice defensive plays.

 

[sarals24]

Guys, let's cut Stewart some slack. They obviously keyed on her and KML in the first half, and she's just having a tough game. It happens.

She may be a little more cautious though because of not wanting to get re-injured.

 

[easttexastrash]

I think Saniya has more offense than Banks, and has taken some of her minutes...

Is the announcer pronouncing her name correctly?

Wherever @Kaleena23 is right now, her mother seems to be with her. She is here from California to see the game. #thinkpositive #momisthere

Sweet! double double for Stokes - 10/11 and 5 blocks!

Per Becca, via Doris, KML’s elbow is very swollen and she is in a lot of pain.

Do you remember that game - i think it was vs. Tennessee - where Crockett played out of her mind. So strong, all over the place, and I thinks he dove for a loose ball at the end - just a great and strong effort on her part.

I nominate Kiah Stokes as player of the game. Do I have a second?

This game was heads and shoulders better than last seasons game. (KML excluded)

This should a be boost to Stanford and their young team going forwards because this UConn game is much more talented than last.

Stanford may not be the number 3 team in the nation but they should definitely should be top 6.

UConn should get that vote back that they absurdly lost...back to Unanimous #1.

 

[NutmegDog]

Chiney is a great player. Terrific athlete and seems like a good person.

 

[VAMike23]

Haven't seen Kiah smiling this much since the WH visit. Very happy for her, and SUPER proud of her performance.

 

[iri10]

Haven't seen Kiah smiling so much on a court in possibly ever. At least it's one nice thing to see today, even if it doesn't counteract the KML bummer.

edit: wow, same post content at the same time as VAMike :-D
