That was a great game. SC out rebounded Iowa big time but Iowa kept chugging along.
Clark is a superstar. I feel a little bad for the rest of the team because to the media it’s all about Clark and the whole team performance was great. [Reply]

She is putting on basketball camps now days. We had her come to our local school and she did a great job (along with her dad, who is a legendary high school coach).

I hate to say i find a lot of woman’s bball shooting form to be a little cringey. But Caitlin clark and Paige bueckers are two superstars with a way more natural form. Clark a better shooter, bueckers with the handles. [Reply]
I'm an Iowa fan, and have watched Clark play at Dowling Catholic in High School, but Hawkeye Woman's BB has been appointment TV for me all year, Its so fucking good. And their NCAA run is as much about the team and coaching as it is their Superstar in Clark. There has been a different girl step up in each game that has allowed them to win. Clark and Ciznaro are always going to one theirs, but in the Sweet 16 is was Gabby Marshall, Eliete 8 Warnick, last night Kate Martin.
And the coaching... Bluder is a great story in and of it self. She's a great coach, her staff has been together for 31 years. Amazing. But they have deployed some incredible defensive schemes in this tournament. Amazing stuff. Clark not defending that gal in the header, that was scheme. Fricking nails. [Reply]
Didn’t catch the game, but saw the highlights on ESPN. Amazing watching some of those shots. She was well beyond the three point line and was swishing those shots and hitting nothing but net. Very impressive. [Reply]

Living in Oregon, Sabrina Ionescu was basically a celebrity all over the state. I'm sure she's getting the same kind of treatment in Iowa.
She's a sophomore and plans to play her two remaining years.
Get used to hearing about her

Seems like the look and sound is a little different when she splashes one at the trajectories she uses.
You can definitely hear the difference when someone is a pure shooter. It's not a swish, it's a popping sound. Gradey Dick had a few of those this season.
I remember Kevin Durant and Steph also creating that incredible sound [Reply]
