It was open because she shot from Egypt

Correct. It was a ridiculous spot to shoot from.

Every basket counts and changes the dynamics of the game. Bummer to lose.

Good Game tho,

What were Richard and Flaujae's totals?

Richard was 5-6 from the line
FlauJae was 2-6 from the line. Which is not her norm

Knox was 0-2
Joyner was 0-1
Zakia Johnson was 1-2
Koval 2-2
Fulwiley 4-4

14-23 meanwhile SC was 15-17

To be honest thought SCar was gonna roll, feel better about the team

I admit I kinda did too. After that poor close to the first half, I was afraid they’d steamroll us in the second. We hung in but we’ve got to find a way to win these kind of games.

The little troll said it- we made our free throws and lsu didn’t

Not to mention there were enough bricks put up at the free throw line to build the Pitti Palace

Better be a whole lot of free throw shooting and a whole lot of running for missed free throws at the next practice.

MW is slow and out of shape free throw shooting was a joke point guard play was pitiful and we still only lost by seven. I think the final great 8 is the limit of this team. Give Bella Hines some more minutes Kim

We had a once in a lifetime performance in the national title game in making 3 pointers and it won us a title. You would think we would realize that we have to have shooters.

This is pretty well true. Jasmine Carson, normally a role player, went on a once-in-a-lifetime tear from the three to give us an 18 point lead at the half. That does not happen, who knows if we win that game?

We already have the best pure shooter in the country in MKW. But I am astounded that throughout her career here we make no effort to set screens for her, get her open, etc.

Definitely over rated…a good role player at best and a liability on defense Have said it all yr

I agree , she seems lazy on defense

---

I’ve found her defense to be up and down based on matchup. She doesn’t do well against the small quick guards. Against Texas she held Booker to her worst game of the season. She wasn’t the one guarding either of the Johnson’s who scored all the points.

Mikaylah just had a bad 2nd half. She was 4/6 9 points in the first. Shes still one of the best players in the country and without her isolation shooting and playmaking in the half court, our offense would be putrid.
