Well, I guess we define posterize differently. I don't limit my use of that word to dunks. Here's the play I'm talking about:

Schimmel was only able to do this to Griner because she's so slow. This lilkely would have been batted into the stands if she had tried to do this to a 6'8" NBA basketball player.

It's a fricking lay-up.
Just a lay-up? Okey dokey.

Aside from Jordan's switch hander, have you ever seen a poster of a layup before? I sure haven't.

Umm, likely? It would've looked like those commercials where some average joe is playing against Shaq and the ball is near instantly thrown back in the guy's face.

Was it not? Let's break it down. She dribbled behind her back to start, which I've seen people do in 10 year old rec ball. Also, she did it against a frickin center who is slow. So she goes behind the back against a center..unimpressed.
Then she does an awkward looking layup. Yes, a layup. Then she immediately talked shite like she just won game 7 of the WNBA finals.
The whole play is a major "meh".

Yes. The basketball term for what she did is "lay-up".
She was fouled too. Awesome.
Make a poster of it, and hang it up. I'm sure you'll make lots of friends.

He should draft him then.

1) Calling that play "just a lay-up" is like calling Michael Jordan's hand-switch play or Julius Erving's behind-the-backboard play just lay-ups, because it implies than it didn't require any degree of skill or athleticism. That fact that it was done against the best college player in the nation makes it all the more impressive. Some of the most famous NBA plays were done against players who were journeymen at best (eg. Greg Ostertag, Craig Elo, etc.), but that doesn't make them any less memorable. Obviously you're unwilling to give credit where credit is due.
2) In an era where football and basketball players routinely trash talk and peacock after mildly impressive plays during regular season games, I think it's to be expected that Schimmel would show some emotion after such a great play during one of the biggest upsets in NCAA tournament history.
