Message: [QUOTE="JordyG, post: 2798452, member: 6819"] Just got around to watching the first half, and I haven't read a single appraisal of this game. Yet. One can immediately see this team as opposed to the U17 is not about pace. In the offensive end this team rarely cuts through the lane or uses quick passes, preferring to go 1V1. Lots of missed assignments on both ends. Liv got caught twice moving her feet too slowly and using hand checks to hold position. International refs will let you use your body a lot, but hand checks are a no. CW turned the ball over twice. Every time down the floor I keep imploring them to move the ball on offense to no avail. Most of the forwards look like they're running in mud. Most of the guards look like they have eyes only for the basket. I'm still rooting for Joens to do something positive. 3:56 in the half and she draws a shooting foul. I look at the score at 3:07 and their up by 20. You and I know the should be up by near 40. Yep, the U17 wouldn't just beat this team, they'd run them out of the gym on athleticism alone. This team is not a fun watch. And to the guy/troll who thought there's nothing to putting together a group of fine talent and winning a championship, and that Carla was such a horrible coach, you should be forced to watch this team every day, all day, for the rest of your life.
