Teaira McCowan

[DaBball]

Basketball is all about matchups. McCowan didn't do as well against the Sparks with Brown and Vadeeva. Cambage seems to have a real problem playing against big strong post players. She just doesn't like the contact.

She didn’t do well against the Sparks, but it had little to do with Vadeeva or Brown
Quarter 1
- Vadeeva: 1:15
- Brown: 1:04
- McCowan: 8:06
Quarter 2
- Vadeeva: 0:00
- Brown: 4:08
- McCowan: 0:49
Quarter 3
- Vadeeva: 1:11
- Brown: 0:00
- McCowan: 10:00
Quarter 4
- Vadeeva: 10:00
- Brown: 5:33
- McCowan: 2:47

To say that McCowan didn’t do well against Brown and Vadeeva when she was barely on the floor at the same time as them is awful analysis.

On the money above. I watched that game. I think McCowan scored 6 points early in Q1, but after picking up her 2nd foul she had to sit. She never really got going the rest of the game. Nneka kinda took her to school with her quickness and veteran savvy.

Brown and Vadeeva were both productive off the bench but the game was completely over before the 4th quarter started.

On top of points, rebounds, and blocks, Big T is also improving her assists numbers. She has had 6 assists in the last 5 games.

We stan a center developing her all-around game. Glad to see it.

Teaira McCowan is just on a mean tear lately. I unfortunately missed her last 3 games, but will NOT miss her in Westchester next Friday, toll charges or anything. I hope it'll be one of her efforts like her last 4 out of 5 though.

Who knows what kind of game you’ll see with both teams now officially out of the playoffs. Charles is already said to be missing tomorrow night’s game for “rest”.

I feel for Charles.. she's an all-world talent at the 4-5 but virtually gets no help. Nurse has stepped up quite a bit this year, but Katie Smith is not a good coach. The Liberty have been a dumpster fire.

One of my favorite sayings on here to say is " the best ability us availability." I wonder what this season might have been if Arike was drafted instead of Asia . Arike and Collier have played so much more minutes than any other rookie, clearly their endurance should be noted as well as their other talents. I can't recall either of them missing any college games.

I hope the Liberty get a better coach. They should not be worse than Dallas, who lost Cambage completely and Diggins for the season. They returned their key players, and added Durr.

No way Smith survives. The way the Liberty plays, there are so few easy baskets. To win Charles and/or Kia have to have herculean games. The game in Westchester where the Owner Tsai was in the audience and we stunk up the second half (forget which opponent but the description can fit a lot of games )

And the fact that there is not even a snippet of evidence that they can develop Han Xu (14th pick) just when they move back to Brooklyn Barclays ( Large Chinese American Community) will not sit well with ownership.

I think losing Durr hurt alot since she is very creative but we need a first class coach

Oh. Just remembered this is a Teaira thread.

Looks like Teaira had another good game last night against the Sparks. Is Parker still injured? Her numbers this year aren't great by comparison.

The Fever trail the Lynx by two at the end of the third quarter as McCowan has outscored big Sylvia with her eight points and 10 boards.

I think it is more a faction of her fitting into an already established team (since she came mid season) rather than having the team not centered around her for the first time in her career. Somewhat parallels DT's rough entry back (she's 3-35 FG so far). Give it another year and I'd expect both will look a lot like their former selves.
