Sorry about the mis-spelling. Or is it misspelling? :)

I remember watching the play and several of the replays and thinking, "Not much if any. Maybe a couple of inches if that. Certainly nothing close to the level of the Reggie Miller days.".

I noticed he really didn't complain about the officiating, and he was right down there on the floor seeing it close up. Yet it seemed like 50% of the in-game comments made it seem like we were getting screwed really bad... As I watched the game, I saw the other guys turn up the defense and...

Good win. We shot well, defended well over the final 15 minutes and generally handled a team we should handle. 2 lopsided wins in a row. This is the time of year you want to start hitting your stride.

She came in and did not close out on a 3-point shooter, then committed a foul. Obviously, coach doesn't really trust her.

Her 3-point shooting percentage is almost equal to McKinney and Braun. She's in a slump and as the old saying goes, you don't get out of a slump by not shooting open 3's. Do you say the same thing when McKinney shoots 'em?

on that last 3,she was squared up and went straight up. Good.

Tough defensive sequence there. In watching Brauns only 3-point attempt in the game, you could tell it was going be off well before she let the ball go. It's harder to tell on TV when she's on the other side of the floor, but I swear that at least a dozen to 15 3-pointers she's missed in the...

A classic example of why one should never judge a brand new team, coach, style of play based on a small snapshot early in the season. Good thing Nico didn't just throw his hands up and say 'These guys are hopeless, I give up!" like some fans did early in the season. Good thing the players dug...

You nailed that!! Born and raised in southern Minn. Lived there through age 22. I love my Twins, Vikings, Gophers and try to catch as many games as possible on TV. Recently drove 8 hours to watch the Gophers in Palm Desert, follow the Minnesota State Mavericks hoops teams casually on their...

Maybe coaches look at different coaching opportunities differently than we fans look at them.

He's been very solid, especially considering that we need him to play out of position (at least at the Big 10 level) for most of the season. I love remembering when so many on this board were adamant that he should never be allowed to shoot the 3 earlier this season, basing their knee-jerk...

Was talking to a Division 2 play-by-play guy regarding injury updates on players. I'm not sure if it's a NCAA rule for everybody, but in D-2, coaches, training staff, ect. are very limited on what they are able to report regarding injuries because of the privacy concerns for student athletes...

Good to see us finally take advantage of a defensive mistake by Oregon and knock down a 3. GG's had to do most of her work inside tonight.

A defensive stop and a crazy 3 coming out of a time out is always a wonderful thing!

2 weeks off to deal with concussion issues, probably not much practice, will affect your conditioning.

I didn't really notice the announcers much until very late in the game, when the Huskies post got matched up against Braun on a switch down near the low, right block. McGaughy made a spin and step through and the announcers were gushing about her footwork. As they were pointing out the great...

Coach Techs are a 50/50 deal. Sometimes it can fire up a team that is unable to motivate themselves. Sometimes, you realize that you just dug yourself a 4-point hole. I prefer a coach who can let the ref know they don't agree with the call(s), but not go over the line. Most refs have about...

Well, I honestly thought that game went as well as could be expected. Especially for the 1st 30 minutes or so. They're better than us and at home. Our 2 stars had great games, nobody really stunk it up. That last 10-0 run late near the end of the game ended up being the difference. We still...

With the usual caveat of not having seen any practices or practice films, I'm guessing that Niko feels his team is better off running a worn down Asuma, Reynolds, Shinholster out there than a fresh Gizzi. Reminds me of the days when the Giants felt they'd rather play Barry Bonds at 60% of his...
