Stanford Postgame Thread

[jaydee602]

LOL...When Dorka went down, do you think Geno decided, "Don't worry. We'll get Nika to grab some rebounds."?
Muhl wound up with EIGHT boards, most of them contested against much taller players.

There sure are a lot of responses on this topic for a game that was starting too late to watch!!

Until that disastrous pass to Christyna & the in bounds fiasco, I thought Evina was player of the game. Three big 3 pointers, 6 rebounds, & 12 points off the bench were so valuable!

Good points about Evina... I'll just note that, as a commentator later said, that late pass to Christyn was intended to hit her as she cut to the basket, but she cut off her path and it made Evina's pass look bad.

We should have gotten the yips out of our shooting by now, so Sunday night we can shoot lights out!

did you see how them players handled it? Matthew 21:16 Psalms 8:2

 

[Dawson]

Can we just talk about those two clutch free throws from AE?

 

[housekeys]

Regardless of the chats opinion, my POG are Liv and AE.

We go as far as Liv and AE take us. Especially with South Carolina. Unless one of guards explodes from the outside.

I thought Tara's coldness was strange too. She made a b-line for the locker room. Players were still out congratulating our team, but she zoomed out. Really odd behavior from a really classy coach...

She just had her heart broken. Hard to keep it together under the circumstances.

Liv drove me crazy the first half. She had a nightmare of a game the could have been her last. She stuck with it and fought and played a big role by rebounding and making some shots and free throws down the stretch to turn it around. I’m really proud of her and Williams who also wasn’t doing much the first half and really made her presence known the second half. We be SC for three quarters earlier this year and should have won that game if we just played a normal fourth quarter. I felt that before this game, if we beat Stanford, then we beat SC. We just need our bigs to hold it down. Just don’t let Boston or the other bigs destroy us and if we shoot decently from our guards, we will be good. I think we need to watch their other bigs closely because they hustle for rebounds and put backs when Boston doesn’t come through. We have played well against Boston in the past also, but she has stepped up her game. I really think we win number 12.

For every UCONN fan upset because we should have won by a larger margin without the turnovers, there is a Stanford fan lamenting all of those missed open shots. That team is lethal from outside, but they missed 43 shots and were 4 for 23 from 3 point range.

Where can I see the postgame interview?

No argument here. But let's not forget FOURTEEN rebounds from Westbrook & Muhl against a strong rebounding team.

Where's Ed?

 

[mbr33ct]

I'm so hyped with Aaliyah Edwards and what she can bring to this team in the final.

Let's not have her go anywhere close to Canada the rest of this year.

 

[Zorro]

Why in the world was Paige inboumding to AE and not vice versa? Ir worked out but geez!!

[jaydee602]

If UCONN puts those white warmup jackets up for sale, they will be sold out by the end of the weekend!

 

[mbr33ct]

I thought CW should have cut towards the ball...not away towards the corner.

Evina should have never passed the ball, she should have taken it back court to run additional time or get fouled.

 

[JordyG]

According to Tara in her interview UConn had nothing to do with Stanford not playing well tonight.

 

[ctchamps]

Rewatching the game. Gutsy win.

I wish people would stop saying how great an outside shooting team Stanford is. They came into the game at .355, 24th in the country. Very good but not great.

Umm, did you happen to notice that the team has already gotten the yips out of their free throws?

Sore loser.
