According to Miller after the game it wasn't the play he called and he was really, really pissed about it. Went on and on about lack of execution, esp after timeouts when he just told them what to do. McDonald, who's been playing above her talent level for a while, just crashed and burned this game.Surely the play wasn’t drawn up for your cold shooting player to attempt a 3, and not even try to get the ball to one of your top scorers.
Curt was so grumpy he was unwilling to give Rickea flowers for her game. When asked about it he said she had a good game but could have had a "monster game" and didn't. He talked alot about missed easy shots, and truthfully RJ did miss several of them in the first half. He was also mad about a sequence w about 5 mins left where Rickea picked up a loose ball, hit Rae on a run out, but Rae missed the open lay up then Rickea missed the putback. Actually that put back got blocked fm behind but he was still pissed.
Things have changed for the better bc Curt being pissed at her no longer means he takes her out. Rickea said for the thousandth time she likes that Miller pushes her so hard and it does seem to be working. She and Rae really need to continue their upward progression these last three game before the break. They play the Lynx at 10 tonight. Collier is out and RIckea matches up really well w Carlton and McBride, had a double double against them before. It's a definite opportunity.
