No it's not! It takes the right combination of players AND coaches. I put emphasis on that coach part too. There's a rapport that needs to exist between players and coaches on and off the coach that a lot of teams don't have. Can't describe it in words, but shows in gameplay and style. That applies at all levels.

And I'm a South Carolina fan but any coach would love to have the luxury that Staley has .she has about 9 players deep use them! Littleton. Russell . Hall and others are all capable scorers and defenders ..Rick Pitino used to rotate like that it could be done ! It would make it hard to scout ..heck now the other teams scouting report is just saying Boston and Boston and Boston .it can't be about her all the time too much forced play!! And please someone show cordosa how to take a short range shot! Or a jump hook or something ! Shes open too much in the paint .and I've been saying this for awhile it's gonna be a ton of upsets this tournament it's too many good players on good teams that are not in the media and that is not scared of the name on your chest so get ur popcorn ready !

@@anthonytaylor7928 I agree, I'm a South Carolina fan, but I don't think they can win the NCAA championship playing the way they play. They will lose to smart teams like Stanford and Connecticut. The backcourt is too small. Coach Staley mentioned during the game that the team plays too fast for their skill level. They need to try to develop Cardoso as quickly as possible. They need to give her the ball. Over penetration, turnovers, shot selection is killing them. Cook needs to let the game come to her. She needs to realize that Boston is the go to player. Its good to see Beale and Saxton step up more offensively. I don't know why Littleton and LeLe aren't playing more. Hall can play and Russell looks good when she gets to play. If they play the Huskies, they need LeLe to cover Paige.
