Sounds like Taulelei will be dressed.

 

[mred]

Same starting five as the previous game.

 

[CY9008]

Woof ugly start

 

[CloniesForLife]

Not a great start. I'm sure they will settle in

I’ll be watching later…what are they doing to neutralize Crooks?

They are much faster than ISU. Very good zone and double team. Very good at rebounding.

She's had her touches. Just hasn't cashed in on all of them. Shooting is atrocious. 2 for 13 from 3 and most have been wide open shots.

Harris is having a game so far. Nice mid-range jumper.

 

[ISU_Guy]

I really like the team but man we look slow and not very physical for a top 10 team.

Typically shooting negates that for us though.

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

We seem frustrated. Wish we’d just play our game.

In a 2-3 zone and looks like maybe a bit more junk.

Smaller but athletic posts making it hard defensively for Audi

Crooks seems to be rushing her shot so far. Three haven’t been falling for the rest.

 

[CY9008]

2-13 from 3. But 7 assists on 8 made baskets

 

[Cyched]

Sydney keeping us right there. Hopefully we find another gear in the second half.

 

[Junejax]

In 6 quarters played, the Clones have given up scores within the final 3 seconds of 5 of those quarters, for a total of 13 points. Oof.

 

[ZorkClone]

I did see Indiana state has 22 steals in their last game and can definitely see their in your face defense

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

Kind of an ugly first half. Let’s go Twister Sisters!

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

In 6 quarters played, the Clones have given up scores within the final 3 seconds of 5 of those quarters, for a total of 13 points. Oof.

Defensive intensity could definitely be better

Would love to get Alisa going
