One of the worst things I saw, was toward the end when she fell to the ground and Stanford was inbounding the ball.. the refs blew the whistle completely giving SC the advantage and taking it away from Stanford… 

Boston got the benefit of the refs throughout the game, and the refs allowed jungle ball to contribute to sc's win.

That was horrible and I commented real time, too.  I mean, it was like, Stanford cannot push the ball in transition because Boston fell to the ground . . . WTF?!?

And BillBradley, that entire coverage was ridiculous.  Why wasn't Stanford manned up with the person covering the in-bounder doubling Henderson?  It almost looked as if Stanford was in a zone D for that last in-bounds play by SC (hard to tell because camera angle didn't cover the entire court).

Yes, that Boston play was ridiculous! The refs falling for her fake injury and stopping our transition was at a pivotal point in the game. Total b.s.
@Teejers, totally agree on that last play. We should've doubled Henderson and denied everyone else. All I can think of is that we had something up our sleeve for a stacked set by them and then we got surprised when they put 2 in the backcourt. But to not guard anyone at all...that was rough.

Posting just cuz I looked it up and thought others might want to know. Here are Henderson's steals from the stats play-by-play, showing when they happened and who she took it from. 5 of them in the 3rd quarter from 4 different players. Yikes. And none in the 4th.
