  1. As the old saying goes, water seeks its own level.
  2. HVL and Prince being totally (wo)manhandled by our D was so satisfying to watch. Shoutout to everyone involved in making that happen. And huge props to the ladies who made clutch shots at key points. Despite that lockdown D, the outcome hung in the balance because we again missed a ton of chippies. The baseline jumpers from Rori and Maddie, that 3 from Lee and the several clutch scores and steals from Kyla were so critical. Just a gutsy effort all around.
  3. I was thrilled when she arrived. I was way more thrilled when she departed.
  4. Yes, her Texas tournament record was better. Then again, elite recruiters in the women's game often have an advantage over their counterparts on the men's side: The female talent pool is thinner, and Cinderellas are thus more rare. But I digress. Neither of those coaches was an overachiever at Texas, to put it gently. Glad they're both long gone.
  5. Bingo. If we're seeking an NCAAW corollary to Shaka's failures with elite talent, Aston's on my short list. At Texas, she was in many ways his mirror image.
  6. I'm not the biggest Miles fan out there, but she's good at some things we've had trouble getting out of our guards. She shoots 40% from deep, passes well and rebounds. Maybe with Phelia's hopeful return our guards do that as a group next year, in which case we won't miss Miles, Chavez or anyone else.
  7. Olivia Miles might make a nice 1-year consolation prize for missing out on AC.
  8. Rori gets to slap the sticker tonight.
  9. They want HVL to be Bueckers. News flash: She ain't.
  10. Preston needs to call a halt to those HVL desperation drives.
  11. They held us to 23 points despite getting called for only 3 fouls in the half? I'd say it's more like we held ourselves to 23.
  12. Can't recall the last time I was this angry about a halftime lead. I know we're putting everything into D, but you can't shoot like that and expect to win a game down at the Y.
  13. We should be up 20. Instead, it's a dogfight.
  14. Our offense will be the death of me. And the team.
  15. "Fists of Fury" doesn't seem that furious so far. Although she did block a shooter 10 inches shorter than her, so there's that.
  16. HVL is such a diva. She and Mulkey seemed a perfect match.
  17. Time to release the tigress. She's hungry.
  18. What led us not to hold for the last shot? Sometimes the game bewilders me. Edit: I guess no clock reset.
  19. Earth to Booker. Come in, Booker.
  20. Jak is a maddening player.
