HVL is a HUGE reason why LSU lost this game. She's played like azz all tournament! Williams was never gonna be a major factor this late in the season, she's a freshman. But LSU absolutely needed a better performance from HVL. She had crazy turnovers, poor offensive performance, and even worse defense. She didn't have to shut CC down but she did need to stay in front of her and deny her the ball some. CC did absolutely whatever she wanted and collapsed the defense by constantly beating HVL off the dribble at will. Go back and rewatch all the times the defense had to help after CC consistently beat HVL EASILY off the dribble. HVL plays hard but in the end...she just wasn't nearly good enough defensively and has been the weak link on this team on defense ALL SEASON!!!!

1) HVL was an absolute liability for this game
2) Too many unforced turnovers (HVL and Johnson legit throw the ball out of bounds or directly to an Iowa player at least 6 times)
3) Lazy help defense early on and being lazy getting back on D after a missed shot
All mental errors or lack of effort cost this team a final four.

yah HVL sucked not just this game but in many games and I'm really surprised Coach kept HVL on Clark (Flau'Jae was a better defender)
But everyone else on LSU was ice-cold shooting in the second half until the last 2 minutes
LSU had way more shot attempts than Iowa / LSU was too cold shooting / Angel's injury really slowed her down / Nobody stepped up enough / No urgency when LSU was behind / Iowa zone helped get them more rebounds / It wasn't the refs' fault
We're all surprised how the second half fell apart but it wasn't all on HVL for sure
OVERALL IT WAS STILL A KILLER YEAR for LSU WBB!

Look, you don’t have to bash HVL to get the point across. But, with the expectations from the portal she’s been a substantial disappointment

Only one player has had 40 plus points and 10 plus assists in a tournament game whether it's men or women. And she did it twice against hvl
