Obviously all for naught. Cant say I didn’t try 🤷‍♂️

There are 20 other players they could replace DT with, and they'd still win the gold. Hell, they could replace DT with Edie Darby, and they'd STILL win the gold!

5:00-4:33: Team B shoots (1) 4:33-4:13: Team A shoots (1) 4:13-3:46: Team B shoots (2) 3:46-3:26: Team A shoot (2) 3:26-2:59: Team B shoots (3) 2:59-2:39: Team A shoots (3) 2:39-2:22: Team B shoots (4) 2:22-1:52: Team A shoots (4) 1:52-1:25: Team B shoots (5) 1:25-1:05: Team A shoots (5)...

No, it's not. Because the next 5 min Team B will have 7 possessions because they will shoot first. In 10 min, both teams will have 13 possessions.

THANK YOU! I'll let you continue the debate, because I don't know how else to explain this. If you add up the amount of time each team has the ball, then Team A has it for a much shorter period of time because they are shooting faster. It's not like each team has the ball for 5 min each.

Again, you're ignoring the fact that possessions alternate. In five minutes, with team A shooting every 20 sec and team B shooting every 27 sec, that means possession will alternate every 47 seconds. Assuming 1 shot per possession, one team will get 6 possessions/shots and one team will get 7...

I just did the math above. You're leaving out that possessions alternate, so the team shooting in 20 seconds is speeding up the overall turnaround time for possessions for BOTH teams, not just the faster team. That strategy will give both teams more possessions. The team that uses more shot...

If Team A shoots every 20 sec and Team B shoots every 27 secs, then each team completes 1 possession every 47 seconds. Let's pretend that both team shoot 100% and there are no rebounds or turnovers to create extra possessions. 40 min = 2400 sec. Divide by 47s, and both teams will average 51...

I don't think it's doom and gloom, but it would be a shock if her system clicked in year 1 with most of the inherited players. Theoretically, this kind of offense suits someone like Tess Darby where the constant ball and player motion means that she'll get more open and less predictable shots...

Chicago humiliated the LIberty, not the Storm; they beat Phoenix. The shocking thing about the Sky/Liberty game is that the Liberty had all 5 starters available, and every single one of them stunk it up. Not a way to bring in more fans. At least pretend to try.

She’s not even one of the top 4 current guards who would be eligible to play for the USA. What a selfish a$$hole, but not the least bit surprised. If Clark gets passed over for DT, it just shows that women’s basketball just can’t get out of their own way.

Why would they throw away money on a protected contract for a marginal player? At least she can relax this summer if she gets cut.

Edwards was fine. She was their leading scorer. Her numbers went down because she couldn't hide behind Rhyne Howard anymore and isn't a good enough player to build your offense around. She would have fared worse staying at the sh!t show that was Kentucky.

Spencer absolutely took a lot of bad shots and plays out of control, but I wonder how much of that was due to the team vs. her. I disagree that she does not play hard. I never saw her quit in the games I watched (and some of them were so brutal I'm surprised that the Homicide Investigative...

Latham looks good, but she hasn't been good on a consistent basis to warrant a firm opinion on her. I know nothing about Spearman. Spencer wasn't highly ranked, but she had a great freshman year but got progressively worse (along with the rest of the team).
