I agree. And when she drives to the basket, she just flings the ball up there. No form at all. She just can't handle contact (like GG, for example). She ends up on the floor a lot, and it seems she doesn't get her fair share of foul calls.

Time to put you on ignore.

I disagree on Heyer. She maybe didn't have a good game last night, but for the season she's probably been the Gophers most consistent all-around player.

Indiana's guards moved the ball, ours didn't. As a result, they got wide open shots. As long as our guards think they get points for dribbling, nothing will change. There's not much Heyer can do if the ball gets to her late (or not at all). We do need help in the middle. Hart works hard...

You're beating a dead horse. Give it up already.

Well, without those three, it would have been even worse.

I agree with you regarding the excessive dribbling. Too much dribbling by the point guard usually ends up in less player movement. Why cut to the basket if you're not going to get the ball. If you pass well, you hardly have to dribble at all. A year or two ago Klay Thompson of the Warriors...

They come and they go.

Take that, Ohio State!!

Ray "Cadillac" Williams was another one of my favorites.

Payne reminds me of a young Jim Brewer. (I know I'm revealing my age there.)

Too bad we don't get points for dribbling.

It would help if Battle did less dribbling. Too often, it seems, she looks for her shot first and only passes when her dribbling doesn't get her open. By then the shot clock is running out. If you want Braun, Grace, and Heyer to get open shots, you need much better ball movement. And yes...

On the other hand, when his football playing days are over, he could probably get a job with a travel agency.

It's like somebody always just one step ahead of his creditors.

Reminded me of Cormac McCarthy.

After watching Mara fire away from deep and with no hesitation (I'm not complaining), I was reminded of someone who played years ago - Fred Brown. Maybe we could borrow his nickname. "Downtown Mara Braun" sounds good to me.

Or, as I heard an announcer say recently, he knows where his butter is breaded.

I could be wrong, but I seem to remember that they relaxed the requirement for Randy Breuer on the men's side, so they did the same for Janel.

And me.
