Funny watching the hawk fans and writers (same thing, I know) try to spin it as anything but a bad first outing for their golden girl. "This coach is terrible, they should hire Bluder!"... "If she had any help it'd be great, Boston (last year's rookie of the year iirc) is not good!"... "They only had 2 weeks to gel, just need more time!"... "She still put up 20 points, greatest shooter of all time!"...
What I haven't seen mentioned:
- Twice as many TO's as FG's made
- 2nd worst +/- in the game at -13
- 33% shooting from the floor
- 14 points on 15 shots
- Only 3 assists with 0 (zero!) rebounds
No way can you spin that performance to say she was efficient, effective, or a benefit to her team. This Fever buzz in central Iowa should die down to zilch after a few more games like that.
