[KY Card Fan]

Looking forward to a great night of basketball. Early dinner, in front of the TV at 7:00 and let the games begin.

I'm a Hillsman fan - just not tonight.

I think rebounding will be the key - Syracuse is scary good on the boards.

Like I asked the other day against UNC -- which Syracuse team shows up? If the Orange are hot from THREE, this one could be interesting down the stretch. Louisville has a LOT of weapons so if the Orange aren't hitting from long range, the Cardinals could win running away.

Rooting for neither team...hoping it’s a nail biter..it the game remains close it will be fun to watch..

I was going to add my take on this game until I read your comment. No need now.

Ugh, ugly start to this one. Lots of missed shots. 2-0 'Ville almost 3 minutes in already.

Can the camera zoom in a little? The players look like ants.

The players look like ants.

What is this, a school for ants? How can we teach the children if they can't even fit in the building?

(sorry, couldn't resist the opportunity for a Zoolander quote)

 

[DeeHusky]

Cardoso is QUICK!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Cards getting going now. Hailey Van Lith splashed a couple 3's. She's got a bunch of rebounds too. 14-6 lead.

 

[LETTERL]

Looks like poor-shooting Syracuse showed up tonight.

 

[LETTERL]

6-0 run for the Orange.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Syracuse right back in it 14-12.

edit--tied at 14

 

[nwhoopfan]

17-14 Cards thru Q1.

 

[LETTERL]

Cards up 17-14, end of a very fast 1Q.

 

[DeeHusky]

Cardoso is the fastest 6’7 I’ve ever seen

 

[nwhoopfan]

14-5 Syracuse run, up 1 now.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Evans is scoreless midway thru Q2, she's gotta get going. 23-19 Cuse. Cardoso having her way in the paint.

edit--and Engstler, those 2 have combined 17 pts/10 reb.

 

[LETTERL]

23-19, Syracuse at the 2nd quarter media timeout.

Cardoso a beast on the boards.

I thought Evans hit a shot in the first quarter. But we haven't heard much from her to this point.

If she did box score isn't giving her credit for it.

 

[LETTERL]

Louisville is just all out of sorts right now. Credit Syracuse D.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Louisville getting their groove back. 27-26 lead approaching halftime.

Cuse gotta feel good about doing this while only hitting one 3.

 

[Shades]

29-29 with 0:29.9 left in half

 

[nwhoopfan]

32-29 Louisville at the half. Evans got going at the end. Ville splashing 3's, Cuse owing the paint.
