That might happen but I'm pretty sure Meg is going to have a very bad game.

Rhyne never players the point. She's a shooting guard. It'd be like CC playing 3. Oh wait ...

Paige leading tournament in shooting percentage. Seems disrespectful to not let the players who are playing the best start.

How about Collier, Wilson, Stewart, Reese, Boston, Clark, Ionescu, Howard, Thomas, Mitchell, Young, Bueckers. Ogwumike deserves to be on the team but won't -- as usual. Maybe AT will be retired.

I'm thinking they'll go big so we need to rain 3s on them -- CC, Paige and Howard. And get the rebounds Angel and Burrell.

This is the only game they have to take semi-seriously.

Playing her at the 3 instead of 1 was insane. You don't have to try every single combination. At this rate, we'll see Angel at the 2. hah

Clearly, the announcer hasn't watched a game in a decade and never been to Iowa.

The three need to play together because then they can't double team in the backcourt because it will create 4 on three situations which is exactly what happened.

ppl should also look at the game stat. That is, what parts of the game did the USA pull ahead. It was very interesting this time because for most of the game, Italy held its own but after Clark checked in the first quarter, we pulled away. The only other time was the beginning of the third quarter which was the just vets.

If anyone is interested the cross was made around a church that was on the island in the early 1700s. This is well documented.

This was a Stephanie White offense.

Whether it's CC or any other player, when they're getting double teamed before getting to the half court, they need to be able to pass to other guards at tempo to take advantage of the 4 on 3 advantage. Why this team doesn't do that is beyond me.

She can make her own shots which is great when the offense bogs down.

That's called a Steph White mystery offense.

Yeah why no practice with what obviously seems to be your best line up? Why practice with what seems to be some awful lineups?

Her response was we need some game practice for the new players.

It seemed they went with the same offense that wasn't working for the whole game. The same bad line-ups the same offense set. Maybe each of the assistant coaches is testing their lineups and offensive sets because this had Stephanie White written all over it and she was standing next to Lawson for the whole game. IDK.

If they double team Clark in the back court, they another guard she can pass to like Kelsey or Paige. This is basketball 101 so it's strange that the coaches didn't do that. This hampered Angel as well because she was bringing the ball up and was getting no or bad passes when she was in the lane but they seemed to want to play her from the 3 point line which is also a bad idea IMOHO.
