USA Basketball Scrimmage

It's fast and furious

 

[RadyLady]

Nerves in the beginning, settling down

 

[RadyLady]

OMG, is Stefanie's hair purple.....
purple

So purple

 

[RadyLady]

She's setting some massive screens

 

[RadyLady]

I must say...you get the former UConn players back with Geno, and it's as though he has breathed a little life into them....

Tina Charles is awesome

Scary moment for me is when someone threw a pass to Stewart and she had to stop suddenly and reach back for the ball. She fell, but fortunately got up quickly unhurt.

Really interesting to watch these guys working together...Angel looks great, however the white team keeps losing Lavender in the paint, and she is scoring almost at will

You'd make a great color analyst: White and Lavender.

That scared me too. Had a Paul George flashback for a second there.

 

[RadyLady]

Watching some pretty...and not quite as pretty, but certainly not wall flower basket ball in the second half. Score is close.

Gonna be some hard cuts for the committee!!

 

[RadyLady]

Really some fine transition basketball, and a lot of unselfish basketball

 

[RadyLady]

Gonna be some hard cuts for the committee!!

I was just thinking that

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Awesome fast break with Diggins to January to Stewart for 2!! So pretty!

 

[RadyLady]

You have seen glimpses of that throughout the game....Once they settle on the team and work together a bit, there is going to be some pretty basketball to be seen

 

[HuskyFan1125]

I was just thinking that

Yea, I mean January and Lavender, who woulda thought they would be holding their own like that! They ALL are playing great. Hardly any whistles, smooth basketball.

 

[RadyLady]

I am just loving seeing all these great players working together

 

[RadyLady]

Angel looking back on the break making sure that she doesn't get stuffed again by Stewy

 

[RadyLady]

Interesting to note 2 things:
1. The blazing speed of the game and
2. the commentators questioning whether Griner could or could not fit in with this pace of basketball.

Legitimate concern?

 

[RadyLady]

Just said that the roster has to be finalized by September 26th

Kayla rejoicing about getting an an' 1 - I think it was Diggins who fouled her

 

[RadyLady]

Score is really close, and game is way too fast to document the scoring...

Yea, I caught that!

Will be interesting to see her in the Canada game!

Concern?? Maybe. The pace is fast. Dolson and Charles are really moving down the court. Ogwumikes are fast anyway!

Sue and Tina have yet to get on the same page in defending the screen and roll.

Stewie getting lots of minutes. Letting her show her stuff.

Red team doubling Diggins and she's struggling to get rid of the ball.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

To me also, Nneka could be a lock!!

Yes?
