Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 4134005, member: 5798"] Tony, I was out in the yard doing some clean up just now and thinking about the game. I had to come back in, log on and add my two cents to the BA award for today. I HAVE NOT read anyone else's comments here before posting this. DORKA is absolutely the BA for the game. Others may disagree and that's fine. [B]She's MY BadAss!![/B] She had a break out game today that was desperately needed. I said in the chatroom that Evina played her a** off today. She showed up BIG TIME!! 17 points, 7 reb, 7 assists and only 1 turn over in 39 mins. She single handedly kept us in the game in the first half, but she could not do it alone. A double-double of 16/16 cannot be ignored. We needed everyone of those 16 points, and remember........every rebound WE get is one less possession for them. Dorka came in with a lot of hype and expectations this year. She had been pretty much invisible to date. She decided to show up today when we needed her most. ONO and DeBerry were the only players not to shoot any FT today. :confused: Geno went with only 7 players today. Back to back losses would have been devastating. :eek: This was a GUT CHECK game for UConn. They passed. They played hard, never waivered or gave up. I'm not going to tip my turban to Dorka. No sir, I'm taking it off and giving her a well deserved nod, and a thank you for a job well done. It was nice to see every starter finish in double figure, and UConn had balanced scoring in the 3rd and 4th quarters. Needless to say, the bus ride back to Storrs will be a lot more pleasant and jovial than if they had lost. :) Now we can all relax and enjoy this next week until the Louisville game a week from tomorrow.
