UL can not guard a three point shot to save their souls.How many low percentage shooters have had their best game against The Cards??

I agree, Rick needs to stop berating each and every player and start COACHING or UL is a Sweet 16 at BEST at this point ....

GO LADY CARDS!!

I don't know what all this means,

Each time Grant shot those threes, there was a man on him he wasn't fouled. This is very important because if he had been fouled, then a 3 pt opportunity turns into a 4 pt opportunity. The defensive play on these out of the ordinary 3 pointers made was not the problem.

Now Rick yells too much, Denny was criticized for being too low key.

Siva wasn't the only Card to foul out, ya'll, plus his stats showed a less than stellar performance, but everyone is pissed at Russ ffs.

Should the Lady Cards lose in 5 OT's on the road will you be dogging them up in here as well.

Sheesh!

Man everything wrong with out team came i clear focus during that ND game.  We are good, or we wouldn't have been at #1, but our defense got us there by covering our other weaknesses.

SIVA..... has got to learn to STAY in a game, oh and start hitting some shots other than running intop traffic and trying to throw a miracle pass out of that traffic jam.

RUSS.....has got to learn that sometimes he has it, and sometimes he don't. He see's a 1-on-4 deficit as an opening for an easy shot.....LOL

DIENG........has got to grab those God awful passes from SIVA underneath and make a DUNK.

All of them need to spend an hour a day just shooting free throws........LOL  But all in all we are the Cards, and NOT the Cats, and for that I am eternally grateful, because YES it could be worse.....hint hint (A UK team)

   Oh, and I guess if our Cards don't go to far in the Tourney, we can all LIE say we are in Miami, and root for that team.......   what stupid morons those UK fans are........LOL

Yea,

I don't know what is up with Siva. He is like a pitcher in a slump. That happened to him last season I think and at the end of the season it seems they said his ankle was still injured. If he is injured this season, I haven't heard anything about it. Maybe it's a mental thing.

I am not ready to throw Russ under the bus but he has yet to be competent when Siva fouls out and he takes over as a point guard. As we saw, he not making good decisions there.
 

They haven't been closing the deal in these close games so Rick may need if he isn't (I haven't anyway of knowing), draw up some plays that involve Blackshear, Dieng, Chane B, etc. getting open. I understand why they were hesitant about passing down to Chane because of his hands, but you have to learn to trust him sometime. I would rather chance getting to him down low than Russ pulling up for a 3 like that.

But whadda I know?
