Who will you watch? One player I'll watch is Diamond DeShields. UNC is a talented team that could go far if they take care of the ball better. She could take UNC far into the tournament or lose before they should.

UNC seems to be the favorite high variance team.

Not just over the season, but within games. I'm still shaking my head over the 14 consecutive points scored by UNC against Duke, followed by 16 consecutive scored by Duke. You can't get higher variance than that.

Shoni.

One oddity in article. Five of the six players are stars on teams that are second or third seeded and looking to take down the #1 seed (WVU is a #2 seed). Mitchell on USCar is on a top seeded team, though it is possible that now UTenn is seen as the favorite in the SEC.

Big deal. Those are the only 6 players that play on that team.

Actually it was even worse. If you include the last part of the first half, it was a 20-0 run.

Since they were looking at the non-obvious players, I would add Moriah Jefferson. She will thrive on this season's NCAA tournament stage.

 

[Bestiarius]

Big deal. Those are the only 6 players that play on that team.

I presume you'll be watching those sitting on the bench? Certainly will be less stressful.

Not sure if hb can see up that high. He'll probably just be looking at their shoes and maybe looking for a shin tattoo.

They are the only thing really to watch. The rest are just there to keep these six from getting bored!

Don't be surprised to see Saniya Kiah and KML have a great tournament.

You spoke too soon; LSU is killing Tennessee by 17 in the SECT, about midway through the first half. The Vols are so up and down.

Good call! She is some kind of talented. So is Alisha Gray. UNC could make some noise. I would not be surprised to see them in Nashville.

You really know how to jinx a team don't you? Don't let the Tiger fans know where you're hanging out.

 

[easttexastrash]

Say what you want about Diamond but that girl can play ball and she is showing incredible hustle on defense. She has it all...she can shoot the 3, drive and pull up with a classic jumper, drive to the basket and post up.

There are two players that I will watch anytime they play: Stewart and DeShields.

Sigh; I sort of wanted LSU to win, though I want another shot at UT on Sunday.

NoCar will be the most talented team to NEVER make the Final4! Bet the ranch on that! When the Head Coach in an interview says "she doesn't care how many turnovers her team, 30 or 40, has just as long as they play fast!" You got to wonder what glue she's sniffing! NoCar is too undisciplined to go all the way! The only reason Sylvia Hatchell has a NC is because S. Crawley hit a 3 vs GA with 1 second on the clock! S. Hatchell didn't coach her way there! The NoCar/Duke game was a perfect example of that! +14 in a row/-16 in a row proves that!

I didn't think Sylvia Hatchell was coaching NC this year due to her chemo treatments for leukemia. Reports say she hopes she can be back for the NCAA's. I wish her well in this personal battle.

Did you watch the game last night against Duke? First of all, Hatchell is not coaching this year. Second, this team is playing great defense and they did not appear undisciplined at all. That freshman class is all that they were advertised as.

I would NOT want to meet them in the tourney. That is a dangerous team!
