U18 vs Brazil

[easttexastrash]

I'm ready for the next one. Who else will be watching?

 

[alexrgct]

Watching. Tuck and Bre starting.

 

[alexrgct]

Great assist by Breanna!

 

[alexrgct]

Morgan is just a rock solid defender and rebounder.

 

[alexrgct]

Michala Mabrey is a great player and cute as a button...unless she's not 18 yet, in which case, she's not remotely attractive.

 

[easttexastrash]

Brown looks like a solid PG.

 

[alexrgct]

Breanna Stewart's defensive instincts are just terrific.

 

[easttexastrash]

Stewart is such a smooth player. She's just a natural.

 

[alexrgct]

Breanna for three!!!!!

 

[alexrgct]

15-0 USA. Good times.

Stewie is one of players who seems to play in slow motion compared to other players simply because she is so smooth and under control.

 

[VAMike23]

Tuck has great footwork and positioning; I note that her vertical is probably not what it was pre-ACL. She does her work by getting in the right spot, and being stronger than the player on her hip. Also pretty darn quick.

Stewart? Nothing much to say. Dominant in all phases.

Btw I saw a still shot of MoJeff when the game feed was starting. Is she dressed and cleared for the game? Or being held out b/c of the hand?

 

[alexrgct]

I love Alexis Prince's shot. Very smooth.

 

[VAMike23]

Sideline reporter just confirmed that MoJeff is sitting out. Bummer

 

[VAMike23]

Ummm it's 28-0. They are saying that Brazil is tired because they played earlier.

??????

 

[alexrgct]

Imani Stafford is going to be a pain in the butt at the college level. She's not Griner, but she's got very good athleticism for that size.

28-0 after the first quarter. Not sure I can watch much more of this.

 

[alexrgct]

Ummm it's 28-0. They are saying that Brazil is tired because they played earlier.

??????

yes, a lot of their players if not all participated in the u17 game too.

 

[VAMike23]

yes, a lot of their players if not all participated in the u17 game too.

wtf - that's a ridiculous set of circumstances

 

[alexrgct]

Apparently some visa issues for the younger kids.

Hey, ESPN, it's alumnae, but alumni.

 

[easttexastrash]

Prince is going to get a lot of playing time at Baylor. She has great range! Has already hit a couple of threes.

 

[alexrgct]

Stewart needs to hit that layup foul or not, but damn, she can move with and without the ball.

 

[alexrgct]

Ugh...Mabrey just wasted as gorgeous Breanna pass

 

[VAMike23]

Stewart needs to hit that layup foul or not, but damn, she can move with and without the ball.

She makes the court seem about 60 feet long and 20 feet wide

wtf - that's a ridiculous set of circumstances

What were they thinking? Or were they thinking?

 

[alexrgct]

That's a ridiculous coaching staff for Team USA: Katie Meier, Kelly Graves, Nikki Caldwell.
