Well, yeah, BUT she has GOT to cut down on all those turnovers!!
I just have one question: how do you leave Collier off the Wooden Award list? Collier has to be one of the ten best players in the country, maybe even a top 5.
I think Stewie was the fastest to 1000 pts
Didn't she get bumped off the Wooden list for Gabby?Who is this Collier player? For a consensus AA she sure stinks.
Especially impressive without the team's best perimeter defender, Kia.I was really impressed by their defense. Crystal did much better. Saniya was solid,Lou worked hard and did great. And of course Collier and Gabby always defend well. I had thought that Temple would be difficult to defend with quick guards,but UConn was impressive!
Temple's performance was definitely uninspired. However, UConn played much better, especially in the second half.
She's the best sucky player we have
Who doesn't need to improve? I bet even YOU have a thing or two that's not error free or perfect.It's not only that we miss so much with Kia out, but also that Dangerfield is just a continuous mistake waiting to happen. She needs to improve soooo much.
1000 pts for Gabulous!!! 43rd player to do it
She said they had lost their edge and that they realized that they had to play for each other.For those who don't get the SNY feed - Gabby said in the post game that the players had a team meeting. I was busy during the interview but the gist that I got was that, basically, the team hadn't been playing well for a couple weeks, they were tired of it and decided it was time to snap out of it. My paraphrase; maybe someone has the actual quote.
Yes. Click on the persons handle and a profile should come up. You should see a link for Ignore there. PM me if you have any problems.Do we have an "ignore button" for some of our posters.
I'm getting sick of this negativism.
Lou: 19 Pts, 4 Rbs, 7 Ast, 6 StlI honestly thought she had more than 3 steals. I guess some were tips that her teammates picked up.
Temple is still afraid of Uconn. Tulane not so much.
Geno has always said the best player on the best team should be NPOY. Doesn't always play out, though.I fully respect what Kelsey Plum is doing is Washington and fully expect her to win the NPOY awards.
But who in America is a better all-around player than Napheesa?
Here's how I answer that: Who would you trade her for?
Nobody.
One of the many things I like about her is that when she makes a shot or does something really well, she is almost oblivious to it and has no reaction because she is already getting into the next play. A coach's dream.I fully respect what Kelsey Plum is doing is Washington and fully expect her to win the NPOY awards.

I'm with you. I figured UConn would have trouble with Temple's guards, figure it out, and ultimately prevail. They came out with really tough defense, and Temple just could not keep up. Which leads me to ask how Temple ranks against Tulane. Maybe it was just a matchup problem, but against UConn, Tulane looked wonderful, a lot better than Temple did.Have to tell you, I'm really surprised at this outcome. I thought Temple's guards would come out and make things difficult. Have to credit the players and coaches for getting it done.
