A really outstanding performance. I haven\'t looked at stats yet, but the only negative I remember was the fouls. I believe it wasn\'t an accident that Ify got two early fouls. With her out, Arizona isn\'t very strong.
Oh yea, in the first half, when Nneka sat down, Stanford no longer was able to get the ball inside and just passed the ball around the perimeter. That needs work.
I\'m sure the shoulder shot to Chiney\'s chin wasn\'t an accident, but I also don\'t think it was personal. That\'s the kind of thing I wish the officials would call as an intentional foul under this year\'s emphasis against shots to the head.
The O sisters showed the dominance they can achieve when there is little interior defense. Hat\'s off to Mel. I\'ve not been very impressed by her this year until today.
My prediction now is that NEXT year\'s team will be a Final Four shoo-in. The fact that so many players are playing so well has to help next year\'s team as well.
IF someone felt these games were important enough to take time ($$$) off from work to go to LA and watch the games in person, you could have sat right behind the bench. It doesn\'t look much more crowded with a LA team playing.
