what's w/ all these choollah(sp) shots- the ones that hit and then die on the rim bracket and drop through the net? Been seeing a lot of them.

Any jai alai fans here? You know what I mean.

Billings has improved a lot this year IMO but she can't help it if she's only 6'4" tall if she wears 4" heels. And if you follow P12 threads at all, that's been repeated for 4 years. It has nothing to do with her performance today. It doesn't change the fact that she's really a tweener without outside skills.

So, in other words, she's about 2" taller and a better outside shooter than Gabby Williams?

Do W GMs realize this?

Seriously though.....Billings imo is no shorter than Ogwumike,GJ,Brunson,etc......McCowens makes Billings look smaller than she really is.

How/when did Canada hurt her arm? (doesn't seem too bad)

She's not a post-up player. Her explosiveness+that step through move at least gives her a chance against most Pac-12 opponents but of course she's going to struggle playing with her back to the basket against someone as huge as McCowan. She'll be a perfectly fine hustle/rebounding frontcourt player in the W (with an above average ceiling) and there's nothing wrong with that.

No, she's not a better outside shooter than Gabby, but is a couple inches taller and can probably post up better because that's what she's been asked to do and she does that really well against players her size or slightly taller. She's done what she's been asked to do and maybe she could develop an outside shot. This year she's been hitting the 12' er much more regularly.

Canada has the heart of a lion!

Has she ever hit a 3pt shot or even a 20' shot?

I don't think so, but the UCLA fans might have seen one sometime.

Yeah, it's very very rare to see her take a shot that's more than a 10-12 footer. I think we saw her put up a 3 pt attempt once this whole tourney and it was in an early game, they were solidly up, and shot clock was running out.

Seattle mostly. Canada to the Storm at #5 seems likely.

The best 3-4 in the senior class, or maybe all of college.

McCowens was just too big and strong...5 inches and about 50 pounds bigger than Billings.
