The best way to watch these games is to skip to the end and look up the box score. For me, it's just not enjoyable to watch the lack of competitveness. Agree with petersalas and others who have pointed out the poor effort. I've commented on it before. The girls just don't get after it consistently. They have it in them, because we've seen it. But for some reason they are a team that, depending on the game, decides they just don't feel like playing that day. Today was a brobdingnagian game for them, but "nah, don't feel like competing today." Sorry, it's just not OK. It's not the travel, it's not the lack of talent. Our team didn't even want to be there today.
Going into the game, the sportsbooks had us as 4 point favorites. Massey had us winning by 8. At one point, we were down by 30. That's not just an off night...

That was worth about 15 "extra" points over the season average.Funny how shooting percentages go way up when players are wide open!
Johnson and Lattimore both equaled their career bests with made threes. In the same game. Lottery ticket.
