I know
@baggerbob is really down on Quinn, but the whole team imploded, 7 points in Q4. Blame for this goes to everybody.
Disagree IMHO. It starts with the coach. I realize that Loyd had the hot hand, but she was ice cold the first 3-4 minutes of Q4. Instead of spreading the offense, getting better ball movement and passes, the offense for the entire quarter mainly (not exclusively) consisted of either 1) get the ball to Jewell and let her shoot no matter how bad a shot or 2) let Canada think she's an elite PG/shooter and go 1 vs. 5.
KLS had a few open 3's and nailed one, they had a nice pass into the post and Russell got fouled for FT's, but the rest of the quarter SEEMED like it was the Loyd and Canada show, in spite of going 0-for whatever. That's on the coach. Draw up something else. You must have other plays besides let Jewell and Jordan do whatever they want with the ball?
They started Q4 up 10 and lost the game by 4 points. Did the coach, at any point during the Q while being outscored by 14, think "maybe letting Jewell and Jordan do whatever they want is not the way to win the game?" . Apparently she did not. Played "not to lose", and it cost the team the game.
