Definitely. Everyone on UCONN looks tentative aside from Williams.

so all three of AZ's posts have 4 fouls. If UConn can figure out how to take advantage of that, it can still swing their way.

Arizona having to go small out of necessity. I’m surprised Geno won’t try putting in ONO & Edwards together, given the more-or-less slow pace of the game. It’s not like Arizona has been running on them the whole game. And then UConn’s players aren’t even trying to get the ball into whichever post player is in with the size advantage. Weird.
Even if UConn roars back & wins this, it really would’ve taken them 35+ minutes to wake up? Yikes...

OTOH if AZ could get the 5th on Williams that would be huge. A chess match finish to this one.

Live by expecting Paige production and no bench development, die by the same. |

She's also the Flop Queen tonight on defense. |
She did take a pretty good shot to the midsection on that block she was called for.

I haven’t had the pleasure of watching McDonald play before. She is so crafty, it reminds me a lot of Becky Hammond.

Refs with a Baylor/UConn makeup foul call. I don't see how that could have passed review any other way.

Geno rarely if ever develops a bench. To me that’s his major failing as a coach.

Back in the Svetlana Abrosimova, Shea Ralph days he used to play a lot of players. But he did start going to a very short rotation at some point. I always thought he decided he couldn't keep any of the kind of talent he gets happy coming off the bench in the 7th, 8th, 9th rotation spots, so he didn't try and build up a deep roster.

Yeah but the refs can’t be wrong so they confirmed it. /s

I'm rooting hard for AZ but that call on Williams was atrocious. Fire all these refs.

I didn't even notice Makurat was in the game until she launched that 3 from the corner.

I admire that Arizona has a small lead, but they’re not playing scared, particularly McDonald. They’re playing to win the game. At this rate, they will, even if Bueckers makes a shot like that from time to time.

Good that foul on Williams - she did or not - was Baylor's revenge

Geno doesn’t really look like he’s recovered completely from Covid.

The people that complain about reviews slowing down the game should complain about the real time waster in basketball - foul shots.
