You want me to remember names from a thread a year ago that has since been deleted?If you weren’t referring to “this board” when you wrote “Sure, but last year I was told that made her a 'thug'” then what were you referring to? Who specifically told you that Reese was a thug for taunting Clark?
That call was pretty questionable. But the officiating in general was much better and the game was already out of reach when Reese fouled out.I actually didn't watch the game. Wife was watching the Red's game.
Although I did see the terrible call for Reese's 5th foul during a commercial break.
I was ready to be impressed. Then came the 'but'.That call was pretty questionable. But the officiating in general was much better and the game was already out of reach when Reese fouled out.
the one where she dipped the shoulder on a clear charge?I actually didn't watch the game. Wife was watching the Red's game.

lol, yeah that one. The one that had the announcers groaning.the one where she dipped the shoulder on a clear charge?
Pshhht.....Swoopsie would have won the women's AND men's NCAA championships in the same year with this squad's role players. And the NBA championship. And the Super Bowl. And the Intergalactic Universe Cup.I think it's a fair argument that this Iowa team doesn't make the NCAA tournament (or at least past the 1st round) w/o Clark.
They have good players - solid players no doubt, but she makes everyone so much better with her play.
Past WBB stars on the blue-bloods teams have all had much stronger supporting casts. Caitlin has earned the GOAT honor, just because she has taken a team of good players, and made a few of them very good/great supporting players.
I don't think Sue Bird, or Taurasi or Plum or Stiles or Greiner could make this Iowa team into a Final Four team if they were in Caitlin's position. I can't name any past WBB player that I think could.
You're a bright man. You know the x factor no?So, Iowa does it. Good
LSU does it. Thug
Iowa again. Good.
Just trying to follow along.
All I've done is ask when it's ok to taunt and when it's not.Belem just trolls Iowa fans into oblivion in Iowa WBBall threads.
I'm trying to believe it's just homerism.You're a bright man. You know the x factor no?
You're not reeling me in, sir.All I've done is ask when it's ok to taunt and when it's not.
There seem to be lots of answers but the only thing they have in common is it always seems to be ok when Iowa does it.
Personally I didn't have a problem with any of them. Just tyring to understand the rules.
Just try to keep up if you're gonna troll. The Gabby (millisecond) wave, was mimicking this wave that just occurred.Actually I'm fine with it. It was this board that had issue last year. I've just been trying to find out when it's ok and when it's not.
Sure. That's all it is.I'm trying to believe it's just homerism.
I understand that that was last years excuse, but who decided that was true?
And if that's the rule is Gabby a thug this year? Because she was clearly taunting.
Belem scrolling the internet for things he didn't actually see so that he could post about them on here to get people arguing with himI actually didn't watch the game. Wife was watching the Red's game.

Clark never got in players' faces like Reese did, you dunceActually I'm fine with it. It was this board that had issue last year. I've just been trying to find out when it's ok and when it's not.
So just Reese and Gabby are bad?
As it should be.All I've done is ask when it's ok to taunt and when it's not.
There seem to be lots of answers but the only thing they have in common is it always seems to be ok when Iowa does it.
And Reese said hers was in response to Clark's. Reese said. “She disrespected [LSU’s] Alexis [Morris] (…) and I wanted to pick her pocket."Just try to keep up if you're gonna troll. The Gabby (millisecond) wave, was mimicking this wave that just occurred.

The "can't see me" wave was completely different in many ways, which has been discussed in this thread.
So? Once they've established position they can move laterally as long as they're not going directly at the ball carrier. Martin side stepped and Reese clearly lowered the shoulder, initiated contact before even attempting a shot.moving her feet
side stepped...directly into herSo? Once they've established position they can move laterally as long as they're not going directly at the ball carrier. Martin side stepped and Reese clearly lowered the shoulder, initiated contact before even attempting a shot.
Other way around, Reese ran into her. Dipped the shoulder.
This. If Reese doesn't initiate with the slam/shoulder dip, that's a block. But she did. Seeya.Other way around, Reese ran into her. Dipped the shoulder.
I get it, you guys seem to know the game more than coaches or national sportswriters.Other way around, Reese ran into her. Dipped the shoulder.
Now you get it.I get it, you guys seem to know the game more than coaches or national sportswriters.
That's why I ask you guys for clarification on these issues.
You mean when she gathered the ball to take the shot? Should she have rotated to take the hit in her chest instead?This. If Reese doesn't initiate with the slam/shoulder dip, that's a block. But she did. Seeya.
Going out of your way to follow the player around is what makes it different. Had GM followed Reese to the bench area or made her way to the bench area at a time after the game was clinched a waved in front of her, it would be the same.Can you identify what makes them different?
The one that occurred with 1:45 left in the game and Iowa leading by 10. ESPN Analytics Win Probability already had Iowa at 99.9% even before the foul. But, yeah, pretend that it had any effect on the outcome of the game.lol, yeah that one. The one that had the announcers groaning.
Buddy, you are pushing the rock up against the wrong hill. Take it from me and stop. If Iowa wins it all, this place will be a non stop circle jerk. If Iowa loses, well then it's a referee issue and the results were already baked in. Either way you can't win. Just get out of the kayak, stay dry and watch this joint implode one way or another.I get it, you guys seem to know the game more than coaches or national sportswriters.
That's why I ask you guys for clarification on these issues.
How far did GM follow her? The shot cut off. Did she stop right after the camera moved off them?Going out of your way to follow the player around is what makes it different. Had GM followed Reese to the bench area or made her way to the bench area at a time after the game was clinched a waved in front of her, it would be the same.
I don't see where I said it had an effect on the outcome. Do that search thing and quote me.The one that occurred with 1:45 left in the game and Iowa leading by 10.

What’s the point of arguing about the call if the call had zero impact on the outcome of the game?I don't see where I said it had an effect on the outcome. Do that search thing and quote me.
The irony of that is two-fold. In the previous round, one of UCLA's best players fouled out on a call that was almost identical. Also, if a foul had been called on the hack that began that sequence, Iowa would have been shooting free throws on the other end and Reese would have still been on the floor.I actually didn't watch the game. Wife was watching the Red's game.
Although I did see the terrible call for Reese's 5th foul during a commercial break.
Oh....I see.I don't know if either are "bad" but there is a difference between doing it one time like Gabby did and doing it for a career like Reese.
You should probably ask who told you that. CC told everyone she could care less about Angels taunting.Sure, but last year I was told that made her a 'thug'.
