My scouting report

UCLA 21-2 (10-2)

UCLA is an average rebounding team. They both get and give up a fair number of offensive rebounds.

Their strength is TO and Steal ratio.

Not a great 3 point shooting team, and only shooting .395 overall.

Weakest schedule in the PAC-12 in that they only face UO and OSU once and their Non-conference schedule was soft. They did beat Stanford at Stanford, ASU twice and split with UA.

Obviously beating Stanford at Stanford suggests they have a sluggers chance if the Ducks go ice cold shooting but baring that the Ducks are a better defensive team and much better offensive team.

I am surprised that UCLA is such a poor 3-point shooting team. They only have two players that are shooting above 30% from deep this season. By comparison, the Ducks have 7 players shooting above 30% from deep.

Natalie Chou was the #8 recruiting in the country coming out of high school, and has shot it well the few times I have seen UCLA play this year, so I expected her percentages to be higher than they are (only 29.5% from deep). Despite that, I still think the Ducks should game plan to limit her open looks since she is capable of getting hot. Japreece Dean is a typical quick little point guard, but she normally isn't as good as several others in the conference (McDonald, Slocum, etc.), so you would think Minyon Moore and Chavez have a good shot at limiting her effectiveness. Charisma Osborne is a McDonald's All-American and a good player for a freshman, but I'm not blown away by her at this stage of her career. Onyenwere is the only real elite player they have. Her athleticism always makes her difficult to match up with.

If this were a 5 game series on a neutral court, I think the Ducks would win by an average margin of 20+ points.

Is Nyara Sabally back already? I thought she was out for the year with an ACL tear.

Shelley hits a three and Ducks up by twenty at the half. Hope they continue the pace in the second half. What a team!

Get the feeling they put the wrong player and they meant either Giomi or Cochrane.

Gone so cold, I think the team went to sleep.
UCLA making a push here... We are a little cold too on the offensive end.
