Thanks I will work harder to cement myself as a Legend

No need, really. That would be, like painting the lily, wasteful and ridiculous excess.

Wait - what?? I turned it off too soon !! :::gnashes teeth::: oh well there's always replay

 

[RockyMTblue2]

The rest of American WCBB just deflated a bit - eh?

Best player in the team!

Maybe in the nation.

Can one game earn you AAC or ESPN player of the week all by itself? If so, can they just give it to Pheesa now and be done with it ???

Tale of two halves:

It was the worst of times. It was the best of times.

 

[magic]

31 points(13-14, 2-2), 13 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 blocks, 1 steal. But just wait - someone will complain about the 4 turnovers

Nan, she is a BADASS !

 

[HoopsFan21]

Lots of pictures being taken with the trophy

I dunnooooooo, she missed a shot.

 

[Kaizen]

My two tonight: Napheesa and Saniya

 

[CocoHusky]

To quote @Sluconn Husky:
"Napheesa Collier is ridiculously good!"
31 Points on 14 shot attempts.
13 Rebounds
and just for good measure throw in 4 assists +3 blocks.

Don't know if it can, but it damned well ought to!!

New Geno Show coming up after the post-game... starting around 9:25

I love that Gabby, Pheesa & Lou all were money from the foul line tonight. With their movement and ability to pass the ball they can rotate high/low all day.

Strange game. UConn played well but it seems Temple did not play with any real fire especially on the defensive end. Hard to tell if we really turned it around 180. Still, nice to see our team having fun. No pouting

Well, yeah, BUT she has GOT to cut down on all those turnovers!!

 

[HuskyNan]

It's nice to see Lou smiling during the post game highlights. It seems like she's having fun again

 

[Gus Mahler]

How many assists and steals does she have?

She doesn't get enough credit for all the passes she gets a hand on. This game is a perfect example.

I honestly thought she had more than 3 steals. I guess some were tips that her teammates picked up.

 

[chrissaran]

Temple's performance was definitely uninspired. However, UConn played much better, especially in the second half.

 

[Mdoggie]

Temple is still afraid of Uconn. Tulane not so much.

 

[OldAlum]

I was really impressed by their defense. Crystal did much better. Saniya was solid,Lou worked hard and did great. And of course Collier and Gabby always defend well. I had thought that Temple would be difficult to defend with quick guards,but UConn was impressive!

 

[eebmg]

Well, yeah, BUT she has GOT to cut down on all those turnovers!!

As Geno said, less passing to Butler to reduce those TO. Did not feel good saying this.

 

[SVCBeercats]

I just have one question: how do you leave Collier off the Wooden Award list? Collier has to be one of the ten best players in the country, maybe even a top 5.

TOP 5!!!!

 

[BigBird]

I think Stewie was the fastest to 1000 pts

Nope. Maya.
