Here's what I told my daughter about the game. Cal came out in an aggressive player to player defense that intimidated us from shooting 3s. Oniyeh's shot-blocking ability seemed to cause Nunu problems in the post and her shooting was off all night. We did not seem ready for the game - we were a step slow all night against an aggressive, physical team and second to every 50-50 ball. That can all be fixed with effort. The part that bothers me is that we played terrible defense - some of the worst I've seen from Stanford. I know that defense is partially effort...but that needs to be fixed.

Cal definitely got hot from 3 and it did look like one of those nights when we can't do anything and the other team shoots the lights out. Hoping for a better response on Monday...
