Yes, I saw that interview too and laughed so hard. The one-sided calls for Baylor in the 2nd half were incredible. Baylor couldn't score, so the refs put them on the foul line on just about every trip down the court. By contrast, the Louisville players were making shots. Sims' steals look nice, but she is knocking players off the ball first with her body when reaching in; she does it with force and speed, but its still a contact foul that rarely gets called on her.
Then the refs fouled out Louisville's key player Schimmel plus two more players.
I was somewhat shocked when the refs called the final foul where Griner and another player hammered Reid in the last 3 seconds. (It was clearly the right call, just not for Baylor for a change). I was pleased to see Reid hit the 2 free throws to win the game. Louisville deserved and earned it, playing 5 against 8 for key stretches of the game.
You can understand the emotions of that moment, but Mulkey should be ashamed for harping on the refs when they gave her team so much -- the lead and a chance to win.
