Questions. And I do mean honest questions--not necessarily implied criticisms:
1. Was Chiney shut down by UCLA's defense, or was there something wrong with Chiney tonight? She seemed sluggish the way Joslyn has seemed sluggish this tournament. A bug?
2. Why was Bonnie not much used in the second half after going 3/5 from three in the first, providing our best offense at that time? (Actually, she was in for 7 minutes in the second half but did not take a shot. Did they change their defense on her?)
3. Was the late, physical game last night, combined with the time change, implicated in our lack of energy? The announcers said that Stanford did not do its normal shoot-around this morning. Was that a mistake or an excellent decision given what happened?
4. Various announcers keep saying that "Stanford hopes to have Toni back for the NCAAs."Â Is that based on anything other than pure speculation?
