Yes I do. I include in my pre-game to the players. red jersey players talk to the red jersey players and the blue jersey players talk to the blue jersey players. As soon as the Louisvile bounced up and faced Grinder. Tweet!!!!

I misread you, then, I thought you were saying you liked their decisions. I see now you only meant on the double Ts.

Not so sure how things work in the NCAA women's "real world", but in H.S. ball that display by the L'ville player is a textbook example of taunting which earns an instant whacking.

"Especially" since she was taunting based on a freaking circus shot.

I agree with everything you just said. I have never said any different.

Actually, you did say something different.....

As I stated, there is a huge difference between being physically dominant based on size and athletic ability and being physical in style of play. So to say that Mulkey shouldn't complain about physical play just because she has a player that is physically dominant based on her natural size and ability is wrong IMO.

That's the type of mentality that leads to some officials allowing bigger players to get beat up just b/c of their size.

I won't pretend that I watch a lot of women's basketball (other than Skylar Diggins :) ) but whenever I watch Griner I don't see a player being extremely physical. I see a player who has decent footwork, post moves, and touch, who uses her size and length to get position and shoot over people.

And you also seem to gloss over the taunt by the L-ville player saying that what the Baylor player did was worse. I just don't see how you come to that conclusion.
