Good video. I went to both games last weekend and had a great time. I knew ND was going to smack SC. I’ve watched all of SC games and something is missing. Juju does need to trust her teammates more. They also have to step up. UCLA is a deep team. Anyone can beat you on a given night. Their new additions compliment the previous team well. ND real problem last year besides health was size. Koval had Kiki in hell. I think they will win it all. We will see tho. Keep em coming me and my daughter look forward to your videos.
So... you don't have a video of Notre Dame dropping the last two games to TCU and Utah? Am I going to hear something like Utah should be ranked and TCU is ranked too low?
Hannah Hi-DOG-lgo shooting for AP player of the year. People thought I was crazy 😂 But on the topic of all 4 teams Notre Dame is gonna be a problem once they get Maddy back. Looking forward to seeing Hannah snatch another UCONN chain in December this time with Liv in the backcourt. SC will be fine. I trust Dawn knows how to bring the best out her team with the process. I know many including myself want MiLaysia to cook but due to her 2027 class showing out but in due time. USC. You hit the nail on the head with no PG play. Juju & Kiki can only do so much. So we'll charge that up to the game. UCLA haven't hit their ceiling yet and this is the type of win can boost their confidence. I'm looking forward to seeing how poised they'll remain with this spotlight.
USC has the most gifted tandem in Women's Basketball. All of it. WNBA included. They just need better coaching, discipline and more minutes from Avery Howell and Heckel. Heckel is a natural point guard that can shoot. Howell is EXTRAORDINARY moving without the ball and creating space for her teammates. She can shoot, but even if she goes 0-8, the defense will STILL fear the 9th, 10th and 15th three going in.
Quick recap: We to both games. Predicted both outcomes. Had UCLA ranked 2nd and ND ranked 3rd in the preseason. South Carolina ranked 4th, due to lack of a superstar and USC ranked 6th because of an EXTREEEEEME lack of coaching.
The lineup for SC should be: C - Kiki, PF - Smith, SF - Juju, SG - Howell, PG - Heckel against smaller teams or C - Marshall, PF - Kiki, SF - Juju, SG - Howell, PG - Heckel against bigger teams. The coaching staff feels they owe TVO a solid because A) She helped land Kiki and B) It's her final year. All fine and good, but she is not a specialist and does not shoot, pass, or defend at an elite level. Heckel penetrates and scores at an elite level. Plus her passing and defense are much further ahead than TVO, who's strong but lacks lateral quickness
SC loses by 15 it's an upset, USC loses by 13 they get smoked? Notre Dame is a top 4 team but I think ppl (not this video, commenters online everywhere) are making too much of one game. UCLA beat USC too then lost the rematch then again in the conference tournament. Hannah dropped 34 10 and 6 on UCONN in a win, way later in the season, but then the tournament came and she was averagng 13 a game, Citron was their best player in all 3 games, and they didn't make it out of the Sweet 16. I remember Iowa getting smacked by 30 vs Maryland and then put them out the Big 10 tournament a cpl weeks later. These teams have a lot of big matchups left
It's an upset for South Carolina because they were the unanimous #1 team and it's only their 2nd loss in nearly 90 games. They were thought to be borderline untouchable, yet UCLA just handed them the program's single worst loss in more than five full seasons.
@ the upset part I get, I’m more focused on the word “smoked” when they actually lost by less. And both games they were only separated by 3 spots in the rankings. Seems like despite knowing they lost a starter before the game, the general tone is a lot more emphatic and almost celebratory about USC’s loss across the net.m and I’m just taking notes.
Before I forget, Kiki had the worst possible game and Miles had the best possible game. I believe Kiki is better by a good margin. I trust her to hit point blank layups, more than Miles hitting off balance threes. Coaching and fit is Kiki's issue. Miles has a perfect situation. I don't trust Miles's shooting or long term health over Kiki's shot making, defense, clean bill of health and motor. If I were the Sparks I would pick Kiki, trade for a veteran point like Cloud or Skylar with the assets I have. I agree with Max that Cam Brink shouldn't play center off of ACL surgery, but she'll likely have to if you want to field the best lineup.
USC it's going to take time JUJU is still a ball dominant player Heckel sometime this season is going to have to start to create shots for her team and defensively put the team in position to win
Southern cal has a coaching problem. They have little to no off ball movement. Whenever the coach is having a tough time she makes it juju’s responsibility to carry the team. Even watching their game against seton hall it was rough. South Carolina has a leadership problem. They have Stars but no one who wants to be the floor general. Even though they spanked Iowa st, it was still a lot of the same from when they played UCLA. No one stepped up to direct the plays or players. Notre Dame and UCLA haven’t even hit the ceiling and are already obvious championship ready teams.
I think this year in the March Madness tournament it's going to be the changing of the guard. The key to South Carolina winning is obvious Fulwiley. UCLA has size and more size coming, with NOTRE DANE the dark horse is Westbeld. The two guards that NOTRE DANE Idont look for both of them to have bad nights, however last years tournament distractions cause NOTRE DANE a tournament win
Why is there so much hate towards ND lol Hannah is legit and has proved it going on 2 years now just give credit where it’s due. We’ll see if UConn can hold when they play both teams ! I think ND can win it all they are defensively sound and offensive in every area . We’ll see , they play TCU , UTAH, TEXAS, and UCONN as their next games if healthy and survive these well know how legit they are . Great thing they aren’t starting slow like they have past years they are getting straight to it . We’ll see though . UCLA is definitely a team to compete but I think the sleeper outside of ND is TEXAS they are going to be a real issue !
It's was good for women basketball we see what all 4 teams will do when March comes it's a very long season your Prediction were on point I don't think UCLA will shot that great again this year it's something about hunting you play freely but how will you play when teams are hunting for you...congratulations on the when UCLA see you again in March
I believe Uconn is the best team. Their D and shooting can keep games close against The UCLA's and Notre Dame's size. And I trust Paige in the final 3 minutes over anyone in this field (Maybe in the history of WBB). Notre Dame and UCLA have a better 2-9 than Uconn, but (And this is a huge BUT) Paige and Sarah Strong cause the most matchup problems. Betts terrorized the bigs at South Cack because they can't shoot. Sarah Strong is a different animal. Plus Paige's stop and pop game would nullify Betts' paint prowess. In a hotly contested Tournament Game, there are only 4 players you can trust. Paige, Strong, Alfy and Shade in crunch time are as good as any.
@TheRiddler31XX USC needs somebody to coach Juju liked Phil coached Mike. Play in the post and move without the ball. In today's NIL world, where the players run these programs, that's a hard job.
Secondly Kennedi Smith wasn’t playing also Juju and Heckle will make a better backcourt. Hold your breath cause they are coming back. Too early for this take you just gave.
Lastly, Elina Aarnisalo is a professional basketball player. Happy to see her do well, but NIL is a two-edge sword. You get paid to play, but now your competition spans the globe 🌎. It only took 30 years for International basketball to exceed USA Basketball. We may not win another gold Medal in the sport. The last 6 (Soon to be 7) MVP Trophies 🏆 were given to Non American players. The Women's Game is next. Our girls are victims of AAU ball as teens. Meanwhile girls overseas practice more than they play, pass 7 to 10 times before a shot is taken and often play against 30 year olds fighting to feed their families. Once they hit college, playing against girls that lack fundamentals, they eat their lunch. Elina's manipulation of the pick and roll was Stockton-like. Expect more players like her down the pike. These girls are catching on to this NIL hustle. At 18 you can make twice the money, with 10 times the fame and weaker competition by coming to the USA. We've been warned.

Nice. Went to both games too. South Carolina lacks a superstar and USC lacks coaching.
@ Agreed
So... you don't have a video of Notre Dame dropping the last two games to TCU and Utah? Am I going to hear something like Utah should be ranked and TCU is ranked too low?
Props for dropping this on Thanksgiving Day
Hannah Hi-DOG-lgo shooting for AP player of the year.
People thought I was crazy 😂
But on the topic of all 4 teams
Notre Dame is gonna be a problem once they get Maddy back. Looking forward to seeing Hannah snatch another UCONN chain in December this time with Liv in the backcourt.
SC will be fine. I trust Dawn knows how to bring the best out her team with the process. I know many including myself want MiLaysia to cook but due to her 2027 class showing out but in due time.

You were right!!!! Your knowledge is superior. Poa-Poa went to Wendy's.........🤣🤣🤣
BRUH LOL

@MaxPower247 u called UCLA upset. You 100% know what you are talking about. Its a crime you dont have more subs.Keep bring the great content.
Appreciate the kind words! I’ll keep grinding!
You are exactly right about Dawn holding Lay out, she would have been the difference maker.
Quick recap: We to both games. Predicted both outcomes. Had UCLA ranked 2nd and ND ranked 3rd in the preseason.

Heckel penetrates and scores at an elite level. Plus her passing and defense are much further ahead than TVO, who's strong but lacks lateral quickness
All I know is that this is good for the game, Tenn. and UConn winning all the time, and now SCar. was turning into a snooze fest.
Great video!!

To me it was an upset because how they loss. If it was a possession or two it really wouldn't have been an upset.
Before I forget, Kiki had the worst possible game and Miles had the best possible game.
I believe Kiki is better by a good margin. I trust her to hit point blank layups, more than Miles hitting off balance threes.

I’ll give Notre Dame major credit but Juju is gonna have to turn it up. Hannah is not better than Juju.
Hannah is better but both are very talented
USC it's going to take time JUJU is still a ball dominant player Heckel sometime this season is going to have to start to create shots for her team and defensively put the team in position to win
Southern cal has a coaching problem. They have little to no off ball movement. Whenever the coach is having a tough time she makes it juju’s responsibility to carry the team.

You can't make a video when everybody else get upset and not ND. Keep that same energy for your team. You would be calling LSU clowns
I think this year in the March Madness tournament it's going to be the changing of the guard. The key to South Carolina winning is obvious Fulwiley. UCLA has size and more size coming, with NOTRE DANE the dark horse is Westbeld.

I was thinking that but who knew that nose ring was stuck in there.
Why is there so much hate towards ND lol Hannah is legit and has proved it going on 2 years now just give credit where it’s due.
We’ll see if UConn can hold when they play both teams !
I think ND can win it all they are defensively sound and offensive in every area . We’ll see , they play TCU , UTAH, TEXAS, and UCONN as their next games if healthy and survive these well know how legit they are .
Great thing they aren’t starting slow like they have past years they are getting straight to it . We’ll see though .
UCLA is definitely a team to compete but I think the sleeper outside of ND is TEXAS they are going to be a real issue !
Your name is Max Powers?
I’d bet that Iowa would’ve won the national championship if Lauren Betts had transferred there instead of UCLA
Caitlin would’ve averaged 12+ assists a game. Lauren definitely would’ve been able to counteract Cardoso.
I"d bet that Thanksgiving would be better than Christmas if Santa Claus promoted it instead of a turkey.
I think UConn vs ND will be very telling on who will get NPOY
I agree with this!
It's was good for women basketball we see what all 4 teams will do when March comes it's a very long season your Prediction were on point I don't think UCLA will shot that great again this year it's something about hunting you play freely but how will you play when teams are hunting for you...congratulations on the when UCLA see you again in March

In a hotly contested Tournament Game, there are only 4 players you can trust.
Paige, Strong, Alfy and Shade in crunch time are as good as any.
And now UConn has Azzi back who just went off against a Top 5 defense in Ole Miss. I think USC was overrated.
@TheRiddler31XX True. She's getting better by the week
@TheRiddler31XX USC needs somebody to coach Juju liked Phil coached Mike. Play in the post and move without the ball. In today's NIL world, where the players run these programs, that's a hard job.
the paige stats you put up are wrong.
Secondly Kennedi Smith wasn’t playing also Juju and Heckle will make a better backcourt. Hold your breath cause they are coming back. Too early for this take you just gave.
Carolina came out ice cold and UCLA started cold but heated up around mark, if game is Carolina and the starters start hot Carolina beat UCLA badly
Hannah could not be a franchise player in the W nor can Paige but Juju is.
Man stop trolling
