Ok, Moriah misses 1 of 2 FTs, then Saniya follows suit.

No more mid-game comments on good FT shooting from me. :(
 
39-22 at the half. Bria leads with 11 points, Kiah leads with 6 boards.
 
Geno at his bright, shiny, happy best !! Lol


(Game being called like Jr High)
 
Geno on the officiating. The other night they didn't call anything. Today it's a junior high game, not a college game.
 
I understand Geno's point about post play when Stewie and Stef are both on the bench, but there's another way to score around the rim, and that's aggressive penetration a la MoJeff.
 
Temple not going away, but don't have the talent to keep the final margin from 25+ points, unless Stef and Stewie get into more foul trouble. Kaleena should have been the player taking the last shot of the half. She's a better 3point shooter. However, Bria was open. I like how Moriah is taking the ball to the hoop. Shame's she's not getting fouled more often like the ND players do. :)
 
Does anyone have an up to date stat for 3pt % this season? I know missing KML for those games didnt help, but its gotta be pretty low. Good thing we have 6'5 and 6'4 to finish down low :D

Yes. That and maybe feed Kiah the ball. She was posted up a few times in there and nobody could/would get her the ball!

I want Kiah to explode and and average a double double. Just because I know she can do it!!

I have thought this for years now. Guard Passing is one of our few serious weaknesses. Its great having post players who can pass, but that keeps them away from the basket. Perimeter passing into the post has always been an issue for Hartley, KML and Banks. Im surprised its not spoken about more. There have been numerous times where Kiah pushes her way to great position only to watch the ball swing around to the other side. Its obvious it discourages her. Stef will always fight for position but there have been so many terrible passes into her from our guards.

.345 this season before today

.378 last year for the full season

KML probably makes the difference
 
And just like that, up 45-22. Six straight points. A couple of steals and there we go.

Tanya just took a time out.

Bria (.267), Moriah (.235), and Stef (.313) are the players below our average.
 
Stewie! Foolish foul, when you've already got a few.

Right on cue, Moriah makes a beautiful post entry to Stewie who scores :)
 
52-27, pulling away.

Bria has 16, MoJeff and Stewie 10 apiece.
