I'm calling it now. We'll come back to tie it with 2 minutes left. Then go on to lose by 8.

Can't blame anyone for losing interest in this team. They just don't have any direction, nor any hope for the future.

This is probably the least I've watched Bulls games in a season in decades. I'm still catching up on games from over a month ago, and have resorted to mostly watching highlights.

Iowa/LSU was a great game dude. Clarke had 41/7/12 on 9-20 from 3.

And yeah. It was a much better game than this Bulls game. I had them on side-by-side.

NCAA women's basketball is in its golden era, with more great players than ever before. And they stay, unlike the men. They face each other year after year, having rivalries while improving their games. Just like men's college basketball used to be.

It's the true March Madness now. I don't have any affiliation with any of these schools and I never really watched women's hoops before, not in any real way, but these players and these teams are the thing. They are.

Did Iowa win? Let's turn this into a women's college basketball thread.

Why did we stop going to the twin tower lineup? We were having success with it and it seemed to confuse other teams. Is it really better playing Terry Taylor than just going Vuc and Drummond?

Letting Bogi and Johnson break down the defense 4 times on the same possession. :nonono:

This. I didn't even go to college. idgaf about March Madness 95% of the time, but there is some good ball being played right now.

Then you add that the women's game has some absurd talent and it is super entertaining.

Yeah they were making that same point on the radio (NPR) this morning. Women stay in college longer, it's easier to follow the teams, and they have history. We've seen 4 years of Clark so her story is more compelling than any men's player except maybe Edey.

It's why women are starting outpace the men.

The twin towers lineup is a disaster defensively. 124.5 defensive rating.

Post #37 » by **HomoSapien** » Tue Apr 2, 2024 1:49 am

Vuc not even considering posting up Johnson.

And she just knocked out LSU who beat Iowa in the championship game last year

The twin towers lineup is a disaster defensively. 124.5 defensive rating.

We dominate the boards but get killed on the fast break by uptempo teams. 2 plodding centers are going to create a lot of odd-man breaks the other way after we miss a shot or turn the ball over. And neither Vuc nor Drummond are particularly efficient scorers.

It definitely works against some teams that like to go big though. Atlanta is not one of them.
