USA vs. France game thread- spoiler

[cardfan]

hello?

stands looked half full.

 

[cardfan]

Dee for 3 and nice transition bucket for Tina

5-4 USA

 

[flatcoatmom]

Glad you started it - US up by 3, 7-4 w/ 6:34 left. Dee hit a good 3 - sofar so good.

 

[cardfan]

nice transition - DEE To Sue!

Tina missed a chippie

 

[flatcoatmom]

Some awkward misses for US - Tina just fouled -

 

[cardfan]

Dang, Tina miss timed her jump and block out on D

Maya for 2.

11-8 US

 

[flatcoatmom]

Some good defense for US, but then they missed an OR and let FR get a bucket. 11-10 US, with Kobe in the house. FR gts a steal -

 

[cardfan]

Sloppy TO by us.

I think we should be able to run on them and tired them out.

Parker in

 

[flatcoatmom]

Syl and C in for Tina and Catchings - but FR then hits a 3. FR 13-11

 

[cardfan]

Whalen in Dee

 

[flatcoatmom]

Fowles fouled - hits one of 2. Lindsay in for Sue.

Tina and Catchings missing some easy layups is making this game tougher then it should be. Also allowing Gruda some easy shots with poor defense. Should still be an easy win as USA's depth should wear France down

 

[flatcoatmom]

Nice bounce-pass from Dee to CP- she hits the layup. TO with US up 1 - 14-13.

 

[flatcoatmom]

Angel in - immediately gets a steal -

 

[MilfordHusky]

Look for a close game for a while but separation by the 3rd Q.

 

[cardfan]

Nice pass from Angel!

USA 20-15

 

[cardfan]

ugh. Nice play by Dee, but didn't go in. Parker missed bunny

 

[flatcoatmom]

Dee misses a layup, Angel gets the rebound, passes to Candace, who misses the shot.

 

[flatcoatmom]

US shooting 8/19, FR 6/16. End first Q w/ 20-15 score.

 

[Vowelguy]

US controlling boards; would be dominating if they could hit their shots. I think they'll start to pull away this quarter.

 

[flatcoatmom]

FR starts the 2d Q w/ a sdteal on a bad pass from Sue to Tina - but they turn it over

 

[Vowelguy]

US completely controlling the game - both in a good and bad sense. France not doing much offensively, but US missing shots and turning the ball over.

Yeah, boy - dodged a bullet a few plays ago when they turned it over, FR missed on several attempts but US wasn't rebounding -

 

[Vowelguy]

Diana is going to play most of the game. You can tell she wants it so badly.

 

[UConnChapette]

US missed shots keeping the score close
