Baylor's defense playing very lazy early. Tech out hustling them to rebounds.

Its almost like the defense completely died since Smith has been out

If Baylor’s defense is being lazy, how do you describe one that’s giving up 57.8% from the field?

27-26 BAY end of first
 
Lady Tech on fire from the three.

BU 27-26 end of the first frame.

Maybe I am being harsh, I just have high expectations for Baylor then.

Tech has some talented players
 
Former Red Raider Erin D. scored two quick baskets in the low post.
T.O. Tech.

Raiders already made 6 threes.
 
Baylor is up to 65.2% shooting now.

I keep hearing about TTU’s great three point shooting, but they only have 2 more threes made in 12 more attempts.
 
27 of Tech 42 is from the arc.

BU 49-42 at the midway point.
 
24 of TTU’s 34 shot attempts are from the three.
That’s what you call living (and most likely dying) by the three.
 
74-56 end of the 3rd.

The Champs are doing their thing.
 
Kim can’t be happy at all with these past two performances. Allowing inferior teams to stick around. Smith is a big piece for Baylor but they should still be handling games like this.
 
87-79 final.

Lady Tech won the 4th quarter 23-13.
The Bears won the game.
 
Nice game from Lexi Gordon: 1 two point basket, 4 three pointers, 4 free throws, 5 boards, 18 total points.

Egbo is no slouch either but there definitely seems to be a different chemistry when Smith is not out there. Egbo has gotten some really valuable minutes this year, she rebounds and scores really well. Sometimes I feel she will lose her man defensively but I mean most teams would be lucky as hell to have a player like Egbo to turn to off the bench. She does a lot well. I don't attribute Baylor's defensive effort today to be all because of her, a lot more than that.

Egbo today was 7-10 from the field with 16 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals. Most importantly and a break through, 0 turnovers.

I thought that was just a UConn thing. :rolleyes:

I agree that the chemistry between Cox and Egbo isn't quite the as with Smith, especially on defense. There have been a number of times the last two games where the defense seemed to be a bit slow in reacting, allowing easy buckets that wouldn't normally happen. Queen also definitely has a tendency to lose her man, especially in transition. I would have to rewatch the tape to be sure, but it feels like Queen is hesitant to go out to the perimeter to defend sometimes. She is athletic enough to do it, but you can't hesitate.

She did have an excellent day offensively. Her positioning has improved and she is good at finishing at the rim. She has shown signs of developing a midrange game, but I'm not sure the confidence is there yet. I don't expect to see much dropoff in post play next year when she starts alongside Smith.
