Technical foul shots????

[01Neaggrad02]

why wouldn't you have KML take those.... She is over 90% from the foul line......

No brainer.

He didn't want to guarantee two more points against EC. Geno's version of the mercy rule.

Makes for balanced scoring

They said the Technical was on the EC bench but I didn't notice anything?

I think was the assistant coach (bald guy) and if I'm not mistaken he was called for one the first time we played ECU.

I still do not get why KML was not at the line. Her foul shooting is much better than Stewie's....

If the game we're a close one she probably would have been.

It seemed like Stewie was pointing at someone (KLM?) and smiling after she missed the first one. Like maybe they had a discussion/friendly argument about who would take them?

KML already had a lot of points and at that time in the game, I believe Stewie only had 4 points. So it's a chance to even up the stats -- the game outcome was not in doubt.

Coach thought KML needed a break and wanted her to stay in the 3pt range zone.

K is always in the zone. Her shots hardly ever touch rim... from anywhere.

Stewie at 82.2% is no slouch at FT shooting either, though she's not up at KML's 91.7% on just 24 FTAs. Usually she would make them botth and there would be no discussion about it.

I thought it was maybe 2 things.

1. Stewie spends much more time in the post than KML and Geno perhaps wanted to 'reward' her as I know he wishes KML would post up more and get to the FT line more
2. As was pointed out, KML already had a bunch of points and Stewie had only 4 or so. Maybe wanted her to get some scoring flowing...

Geno just wanted to give the Boneyard something to talk about.

 

[vballcoach]

I was at the game. There was a timeout before the shots, so it was pretty clear that Geno had chosen Stewie. KML and the others were laughing at her for missing the first shot, and Stewie and KML seemed to be having fun bickering with each other during and after the game. They certainly seem loose.
