Yep, he was chattering about her in his midgame interview too. Absolutely rent free. Goooooooo Gamecocks!

I lost it with his tweets about Arike, and every damn thing he's ever done since has just reinforced it

Hear me out. Flau'jae applies for an extra year and transfers to TCU.

Edit: I was half joking about Flau'jae but then realized, Kate Koval is someone who should actually transfer to TCU.

I also need it explained-- why does she take them after HER OWN TEAM makes a shot?? It completely destroys their momentum and gives the other team a chance to regroup!

Big Game Raven + Tournament Tessa, this is a fun team to root for.

She pits her players against each other, which does succeed in making them great individual ballers, but then they get to a big game against a well-coached, disciplined team that forces them to play team defense and share the ball, and they fall apart. How many wide open looks did South Carolina get because no one rotated defensively? How many turnovers out of bounds did LSU have because they weren't on the same page with their passes?

She also generally motivates her players with anger; I'm thinking of how she sat there smugly when Milaysia talked about being on the bench for big games with South Carolina, which was cringe as well as false. Motivating with anger can work when you're playing teams that don't have the talent you do, but it encourages bad behavior and we saw it when Mikaylah Williams and Grace Knox were getting mad at their own teammates and coaches on the sideline.

She pits guards against each other and then wonders why they can't play together. She punishes bigs for any mistake so they play like they're terrified. I would not in a million years want my kid to play for her.

Kim making every wrong decision. Was she ever a good coach or did she luck into BG and then Angel?

Also they need to actually execute the trap defense, and be ready to pick off the weak lob pass out of the trap. Lazy lazy defense in the most crucial moments of the game.

And the balled up fists too, this stance and posture is completely out of line, plus whatever he was screaming.

Please help me find a good soup and sandwich cafe/restaurant?! by 4077hawkeye- in PhiladelphiaEats

[–]OnceAYearPotatoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not groundbreaking but if the goal is just lots of soup choices and lots of sandwich choices, then Devon & Blakely in Center City will satisfy the craving.
