Generally its been the other way around during the past twenty or so years. Most times when the Lady Griz would be ahead at half time they'd get blown away in the second half; that is when ever they did lose a game. Very poor half time adjustments for the most part, like against Louisiana Tech and Pittsburgh; especially when it's done time after time after time, etc., etc., etc. Very rarely have the LG been behind at half time and have ever, ever came back and won the game. Maybe once twenty or so years ago it happened. But very rarely.

When it comes to the La Tech game you really do not have a clue what your talking about. La Tech had a two point lead at half. Lady Griz gained the lead in second half, stretched it out to an eleven point lead, but lost it when pretty much the only point guard the Lady Griz had worth any beans, Brooklyn Lorenzen, ran out of gas near the end of the game.

So, if there was poor half time adjustments, how did Lady Griz Take over the lead after halftime and gain an eleven point lead with 10:26 minutes left in the game against La Tech? Lady Griz lost by four points.

Good analysis. From what I have seen of the Lady Griz and how Selvig is bringing team along, I can see a big move up in the standings for this team. The Griz are a very young team and Selvig is bringing them all along nicely.

The only difference between them and Cats is that they were forced to play fewer player more minutes and the players have developed faster.

The conference tournament will be quite the showdown

Get off your fucking high horse you son of a pig. Granted, the LG were behind by two friggin' points at the half. Starting out 0 - 8 because Hollie Tyler was too afraid to try an easy layup and perhaps drawing a foul in the process instead of passing it off to Julian Keller. Not once but twice. It wasn't a great coaching job there either in preparation for the beginning as well as for the entire game, especially blowing an eleven point lead against a team that had no Front Court that could match up against the LG. Booklynn Lorenzen didn't just run out of gas, she was tripped without a foul called and had to sit for a couple minutes while Jackie DeShazer filled in and ran the Point as if she never did it before nor coached on how to do it, either; one never allows the sideline to be a fourth defender, etc. Besides the frautulant three-point shooting foul against J. Keller that really wasn't a foul to begin with near the end of the game. Can't help it if the coaching staff can't protect their players. So fuck off about everything being about you "GrizBBisKing" and everything else you say about what everybody else doesn't know anything about anything except of what you know, O.K.?

I still time after time ever since 1980 have seen it time after time again, perhaps the Louisiana Tech game wasn't the best example, so what?..lousy half time preparation and so-so preparation for the second half time and time again; just like the 1987 Mountain West Conference Tounament Championship Game against Eastern Washington when the LG blew a 14-point lead losing to Brenda Souther. "Whoppee ding dang dooey," so "GrizBBIsKing" knows it all; I'm not impressed.
