Great report, DD!!
Zone was maybe anticipation against Baylor, but also maybe because UConn was a bit shorthanded in a tournament where referees seem to think phantom fouls are real.

You've outdone yourself with this one, THANK YOU. That was a clinic on what TEAM basketball is supposed to look like. Ball movement was unreal, they are all literally happier to get an assist than score themselves.

The team isn’t much in the way of singers. Good thing they’re great basketball players.

I have been bellyaching since the time of Ms. Stokes That when a big is at the high post and the opponents deign to not guard you. Just rumble straight to the basket for an easy layup or foul shots (do not pass go, do not collect $200)...
The uncertain East/West transit for which Liv was known, drove me nuts.
Yesterday, Liv did that (the move inside) ...missed one chippee...but ok...That's the play. Will ad a huge wrinkle to the offense; makes the opponents guard her (or Aaliyah).

Man, they can't carry a tune in a bucket. Well, there are other buckets to be dealt with, fortunately.

The Syracuse post game interviews were brutal to watch. First Q was brought to tears about what Tiana Mangakahia meant to him. And then Tiana - oh man, I haven't shed tears for an opposing players reaction to a loss in a long time, but seeing her so emotional about playing at Syracuse, what everyone did for her, coming back from cancer...hard not to root for that kid. I hope she goes on to have a fabulous professional career. She is one of the toughest kids to go through what she went through at her age (breast cancer diagnosis, 8 rounds of chemo, double mastectomy, reconstruction surgery, etc.) and come back to play as well as she has.
What a tear jerker of a post game.

What a tear jerker of a post game. That's what's so very sad last night that there was no crowd to cheer them in their last game. Is it too much to hope for that some fans can greet them at the airport or that they can have either a socially distancing pep rally or at least a zoom one?
