We’ve forced 9 Duke TO’s but can’t throw the ball in the ocean

19-23 / 4:55 2nd

Crowd is loud, that technical was bs

 

[KellySyracuse]

Sophie back on the bench

 

[CoopSwoop]

Reckless shooting

 

[OrangeXtreme]

22-33 / Half

 

[PeteCalvin]

Our shot selection has been terrible, and so is our rebounding. This team is not 11 points better than we are. We better find our rhythm from the first 5 minutes at halftime.

Ever since Duke went with Wood, Thomas, and Fournier together on the floor, they have torched us in the lane. Gotta make them shoot jumpers.

 

[PeteCalvin]

We need Uche and Sophie on the floor too. That second foul on Uche hurt us, and it wasn’t even her fault. Duke got an offensive board and put her in a bad position.

Damn straight it was! Momentum killer.

 

[KellySyracuse]

I hate Duke and their coach can go fly a kite

Sophie missing that wide open 3, which is totally her shot, is concerning. Hopefully what ails her, she is able to shake off at halftime. It makes me think the leg is not ok, and hindered that shot.

I'm not sure she said anything, I think it was the celebration after the made 3

Huge difference in this game is the goose egg next to Sophie’s name

 

[KellySyracuse]

It's starting to unravel, they look outmatched. And here comes another T no doubt

 

[llandz]

Announcers said she said something and the official was right there to hear it.

 

[CoopSwoop]

Stupid foul. Too much dribbling and no movement.

 

[PeteCalvin]

Duke’s defensive intensity is taking us completely out of our game. They are in our heads right now. Maybe we needed a game like this to test our mental toughness? Gotta go on a run before the end of the third.

 

[llandz]

I'm going to say we are being out coached. Duke adjusted to our fast start, and we had no adjustment back. Also, her players need better discipline. 2 ts, not necessary. I love her, but she is not up to the elite coaching yet.

 

[MSOrange]

Love FLJ, but I really don't know why she is so conservative about using timeouts to try to stem the other team's momentum. Oh good, we have all 4 timeouts for the 4th quarter to draw up a 20 point play.

#4 on Izoje

Nothing has gone right today. Duke has great defense, but even when they are getting open shots they are not knocking them down.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

35-50 / End 3rd

 

[OrangeXtreme]

We're 1-10 from 3pt today.

Duke is 0-9.
