Just want to echo what Tara and others have said here - it was our offense more than our defense that let us down. Most of JuJu's makes were lower percentage midrange jumpers that she was just drilling all night. If we have to give her something, and she can make most of those, not sure what else to say. (Though I think Lepolo just didn't have the length to challenge those kinds of shots effectively, and agree that Bosgana should have had more time on JuJu.)

Mostly our offense was just so jumbled and anxious. Felt like everyone was jacking shots as soon as they had an opening or trying to make things happen where there wasn't an opening. And I will give Gottlieb credit - her defensive strategy to swarm the post, foul regularly while cycling through a cast of bigs, and dare our guards to create something on their own worked.

Not looking as forward to tomorrow as I was on Thursday, because while we won't be facing Juju, and UCLA is not as stacked in the front court as U$C, Bruins 3-12 are not going to combine for 4 points the way the Trojan did, so we better right the offensive ship quickly.

Just wondering what the scout was on Juju — does she normally take all those jumpers, or does she drive a lot. Or yes to both, LOL.
