7) I don't think hitting 12/21 three point shots (as we did) is a sustainable strategy for the long run.  

I think it was during the South Carolina game when the announcers commented that Stanford wasn't the same 3-pt-shooting team that it normally is.  Even after last night's game, Stanford is 61st at 34.5% 3PT%.  (Individually, Jump (41.2%) is 54th.  I don't see Lexie in the NCAA standings, but Stanford lists her as 23/49 = 46.9% which would tie for 11th with another player who is also 23/49. Ah... maybe you have to have 2.0 3PT per game.)

This fact/impression affects how teams plan to defend against Stanford.  If Stanford is less of a 3-pt threat, they can clog the middle more and do more weak-side help.   Maybe Oregon didn't plan on focusing on stopping 3PT but instead focused on stopping Brink.

"If the right one don't get you, then the left one will"


(Did anyone else cringe when the LSU announcers (against So. Car.) commented how So. Carolina did well by travelling to Stanford and winning out west?    Btw, I wanted to mention that in the So.Car.@LSU game, the FT% were 56%(18/32) and 43% (5/7).    Stanford@So.Car was 60%(6/10) and 60%(9/15). For the season FT%, Stanford is 64.1% while So. Carolina is 64.4%)
