Iowa women v Rutgers

How can they grant the timeout if nobody has the ball? Isn’t that a loose ball? She was turning to call it as the ball hit her

What was with the Rutgers player going over Marshall's back and laying on the floor playing dead until the trainer and coach gets there and then in a split second jumps to her feet and runs to the bench. Bush league stuff.

Wonder if she plays soccer for Rutgers.
 
Holy crap. For a matchup between a 23-win and 20-win team, this game is sloppy and hard to watch.

Very elementary. Women's basketball..yayyyyy...
The Iowa women basketball team is absolutely the worst passing team, year in year out, in the BIG. They are terrible at basic decision making with the ball and passing the ball. Such a fundamental part of the game............
 
The three seniors had 15 total turnovers. Not exactly an advertisement for development. Although I think trying to do what the coaches want (feeding the post no matter what) is a large part of the problem.

Late to the party here, and only watched about 10 minutes of the game, but just wanted to complain to someone about that foul on Iowa with one minute to go in regulation (whilst tied at 58).

Thanks for listening

Life on the road can suck. The senior guards have carried the team in most games but not today. Rutgers had nearly twice the shots in the first half, amazing we were still in it. Turnovers by our seniors and a poor rebounding performance and we still go to overtime against a 20 win team on the road. Good signs Maggie got her shot back, Doyle and Mac finished the game playing much better than 1st half. We would have won this game at home or on a neutral court. Rutgers plays way better at home.

Hmm... and they lead conference in assists. Man that's hard to do when you can't pass.

Do they turn it over a lot? yeah, i'd agree with that.... but I wouldn't call them worse passing team.

The number of times they tried to force it into Czinano which resulted in turnovers was maddening, but they lost the game because they were completely inept at defensive rebounding.
 
Assists are from sharing the ball and yes passing to a teammate so maybe I stated a bit too strongly. But, they also turn the ball over way too much making bad decisions on risky passes, JMO. I guess I value a possession and at least getting a shot more than other folks.
