If you put the average NBA player against most men in college they would crush them. They are literally the best in the world.
You don't like women's basketball. We get it. Why are you still posting? [Reply]

Granted she doesn’t have much help but I laughed at her shot selection so much in the second half. She’d make a great 3 and then on the next possession she came down and chucked up some impossible 3 while being guarded that never even touched iron. That’s the mental game she needs to work on. Mulkey definitely didn’t do a good job of taking advantage of those moments last night like she did last year [Reply]
Was also hilarious watching so many of the Iowa fans point at their ring fingers when Reese fouled out like last night somehow took away Angels ring from her and gave it to Caitlin. They do realize Reese still has more rings than the whole team combined right? [Reply]

I disagree. Her reluctance to do that in the first half made her look a little tentative. She is at her best when she's unafraid to take those kinds of shots. Some of them will be ugly but she will still make a good % of them and it's a way better alternative than asking her teammates to create instead [Reply]

Yeah, IMO 2 or 3 were outright bad in terms of the shot clock and/or being well defended or practically half court... but, that's also pretty much every 3 point shooting CBB player these days, they're going to YOLO a few.
It's not like she went 7 for 30.... and in between all the 3s she took in the 2nd half, she had some beautiful assists. [Reply]
It’s definitely disgusting how so many people turned into Don Imus to try and steal her joy from her. Doesn’t change the facts that she’s a NCAA Champion. Something no woman’s basketball player for the Hawkeyes has ever been or likely will ever be able to say. [Reply]

If you are going to mouth off, you need to take it too. [Reply]

She was 9-20 from 3 and had 12 assist. You look stupid. [Reply]
