  1. Not totally true. While Iowa wasn't as deep as say South Carolina, they had multiple 4 star rated players and one teammate who was drafted as well. They had also played together multiple yrs so they had good chemistry. She wasn't just playing with whoever showed up that day. The Iowa program made the tournament 10 out of 12 yrs before CC got there. They aren't UConn or SC but they were not some complete unknown program that never accomplished anything either.
  2. Yes, Griner was on the undefeated 2012 Baylor team and avg'd 23/9.5 and 5 blks/gm that season. Odyssey Sims was on that team as well. A'ja won a title as well in 2017 with South Carolina. Arike won one in 2018 at Notre Dame. Hayley Jones and Cam Brink won at Stanford in 2021. UConn hasnt won a title in the 8 yrs (7 seasons, taking out 2020 as there wasnt a tourney/champ that yr) since Stewart left. I'm not trying to knock CC because she obviously was incredible in college but plenty of other big time players managed to win a title in college. Its definitely much more top heavy in WCBB than other sports but its not an impossible task.
  3. Yeah that's pretty wild. Dont know his family situation but I'm guessing having a job where he can basically be in one place all the time without being on his phone 24 hrs/day is the idea
  4. Shaq hated on Dwight Howard for yrs among the many players he's hated on over the yrs. There are plenty of examples of old heads hating new school players. Its not just a woman thing. Its a bitch thing. I can't even dismiss Swoopes' shit as anything else but hating now just like I don't dismiss Shaq's bitchassness as anything but hating. And yes the MJ/Isiah thing is a prime example of a decades long beef.
  5. Total points record going down this season. Total rebound record already down and total assist record will as well. Its great to see records falling but this is the 2nd season with 40 gms moving from the previous 32.
  6. Interesting. Look at the date Carrington tweeted that
  7. Thing is you should be able to like both. There is nothing wrong with that. I hate that people feel the need to bash one to prop the other. Its not just with these two unfortunately. Its become the nature of all sports discussion and it fucking sucks. Fuck Whitlock a million times over.
  8. Yeah they were still trying to play it on the low but they were seen multiple times walking a few steps behind one another. Lady put them on blast though LOL Their kid could be the best defensive player this world has ever seen LOL
  9. She passes infinitely better than Steph. Steph is considered a PG just because he is the shortest guy on the team but he's really a SG. Never the full time playmaker
  10. She is more aggressive of a scorer in a sense that she will shoot a little more than he did but she isnt a better shooter than Nash at this point. Nash is one of the more efficient shooters ever. Has the most 50/40/90 seasons in history. She will get better as far as efficiency but I think she will work best as the secondary scorer. Obviously she'd be the focal point of the team as she will have the ball all the time like we have seen this yr. Magic/Kidd/Nash are more the comps than Bird IMO
  11. Really more Steve Nash. Driving force of the offense, forces her teammates to run and they get great shots because of it and she can really shoot as well.
