After I watched the Graves presser after the cal game and our mens team fall apart against Colorado, it occurred to me that what makes Tara's team so great is that they love each other, trust each other, and trust their coaching staff. They play selfless basketball, so it if one of them has an off night others step up. They are more likely to make an extra pass than take a tough shot. The bench is always actively cheering on the team and they seem genuinely happy to see bench players making good plays. I also sense that Tara trusts her team and her players know it. Contrast that with what we heard from Graves, or what we regularly hear from Geno.
I'm not sure we can beat South Carolina, and I realize that there are several teams that could potentially beat our team in the NCAA tourney. I think I'm going to be okay with that. It has been joyful watching these women play together and while anything less than a National Championship will be disappointing, it will not erase all of the joy they have given me and will not diminish my respect for them.
