Re: What is a MOVING SCREEN for a thousand...

Where are the comments about verticality?  Anybody watch the replay of
Okafur's 2nd "foul?"  They guy is standing there with his hands straight up
in the up in the air - no wonder he was so hot about the call.  He did
exactly what they are taught to do, and some official decides that defensive
players don't do that - so it had to be a foul, even if there wasn't one.
And Coach "K" crying no foul at the end of the game - give me a break - most
officials put their whistles away in the last minute of major games on calls
like that, unless one team is deliberately trying to foul another as they
attempt to get back in the game.

I am so sick of Duke getting every call, it was wonderful to actually see
more fouls called on them then on UConn.

As we've said, Syracuse last year, UConn a couple of years before & poised
to do it again, the UConn women in the Final 4 - Huggins, Pirtle & D'Antonio
simply will need a higher level of talent to compete at the top levels of
the BEast.
