Maybe it's a male vs female thing regarding the killer instinct.  I just cannot get out of my head the scene displayed by CO on their court when they beat our team.  They were falling all over each other in jubilation, which they absolutely had the right to do.  However, if I were playing, that memory alone would have driven me to keep the boot on their neck and totally humiliate them at Maples.  That is my emotional response, but is it rational?  Maybe it's just my male perspective, which is hard wired by instinct into my brain.  Maybe our WBB players and Tara don't feel this need for payback.  Maybe they guage their play by monitoring the margin of the lead and the probability of losing.  I would rather they strive to play mistake free smart basketball.  We didn't see that in the second half of this game.  I guess the bottom line is that we got the win, but giving up 28 points in the 4th quarter to a depleted 4-8 conference team should be embarrassing to our team.
