Those games were ones that we should have dominated from start to finish. It looks like were trying to lose this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learn from this and get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shot 2-9 from the floor. All were open shots. She and Evelien put up an air ball from 5 feet. Wilson, Alvarez, and Brito had 4 turnovers each. Lots of things to clean up before Grambling on Monday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I think of it, someone, I believe Cousin Ricky, said that this was going to be CJF's strategy for the first 3 games. It may not be a bad one after all, with Alabama coming at Game 4. This makes it difficult for Alabama to prepare for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes it difficult for them and the advantage of mixing it up with more playing time for some of the girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his pregame he talked about being unhappy with the defense in game one. Also mentioned missing Sami's leadership on the floor. But, yes, he's just experimenting with different combos now. Sami's dad she's at least a couple weeks away. Rehabbing without pain now, doing weight work and doing shooting drills. Marina seems to have taken a step back but it's early. Thought she and Janette would be looking better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also told Brito she needs to play harder out there. She knew I was kidding, of course, and we laughed as I gave her a high five. Love that girl. She was definitely the medicine they needed in the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the most talented but works hard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are so big on her and I'm not saying that she isn't good, but Carla should be starting and the first two games have shown that. She provides the energy and spark that this team needs.

Yesterday's game was more what I envisioned with the two swapping out for each other although they were both in the game at the same time for short stretches IIRC.
