    they pass better to open players, better spacing, ball screens that actually work, they box out, hit free throws, do a lot of fundamentals better than the more Athletic Men's version....
    I disagree but to each there own.

    I agree with whoever said the women's fundamentals are better. Without a doubt they play the game the right way. Those officials suck so bad though, that other than some ISU games and a rare, rare tourney game, I can't watch this stuff. The O's are always 5 steps behind the play, in the wrong position, calling things completely wrong, and just award the ball to whichever team they want on an out of bounds since they weren't really paying attention to find out who knocked the ball out.

    Her voice is not the only reason I question things. However, she is pretty talented at basketball.

    Pretty sure I have seen a total of 4 bounce passes in all of womens basketball. And maybe 2 drives to their left with a left hand.

    Re: Baylor - suspensions

    Just saw it. That was weak, was hoping more of a Cincy-Xavier brawl.

    Nothing looked too serious and no one should get suspended. Griner looked like she was just trying to break something up. The tweets coming in sounded like it was a huge fight.

    Interestingly, I think the two players at the center of the altercation (it never turned into a fight) were not ejected and finished the game. It sure seemed that they were taunting each other. I would have been scared to fight either one.

    Re: Baylor - suspensions

    Just watched the highlight of the "altercation" on espn.com. Sims is nothing but a punk of a player. I have hated her attitude since last season. Baylor gets away wiht some real crappy classless acts on the basketball floor. They throuh elbows and forearms when the officials are not watching. Also, lovely ESPN, have to stick up for Griner. The qoute was somethine like - Sims and the Tennessee player get into an altercation and then griner gets ejected for coming off the bench and just trying to keep the peace!

    It's not like Griner would actually punch another girl.

    Re: Baylor - suspensions

    I was there unreal that it took the refs 15 minutes to just call a double technical. The NCAA President was in attendance and just like when David Stern in the NBA crazy stuff usually happens. I really hope Baylor loses in Denver. Was sitting right next to Baylor fans and it was so unbearable lol. In their opinion they NEVER do anything wrong and the other team is always doing something wrong or illegal. Griner gets away with murder.
