if kristin haynie can play like that on a consistent basis, she could really add another scoring guard and can spell lennox some rest sometimes.

Hey Jason (moderator),
Maybe the team could make a DVD of our first victory available for the fans?! It's a moment I'd like to actually see & relive! Give it to the founding fans for free, and sell it to the rest of us!

OMG...I was really on edge in the 3rd quarter, but we pulled it out!!!! Haynie...terrific game, like 11 assists...Lacy...like 18 points and the leader on the floor, pounding her chest and encouraging the crowd to cheer even louder...Strother again making use of her time on the floor......Young comes through late with a couple of boards, loose balls and points...Latta with key baskets...the 6th man never letting up on their support...OH MAN...when it was all done, the streamers came down to the sounds of "Celebration" and the players ran around the floor hi-fiving the fans...Young going deep into section 105...I was ready for the roof to come off...
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

First win in franchise history - AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The team played hard and didn't let up. We had at least 5 players in double figures (this was probably the single most important factor in tonight's win). Finally, we are winless no more!!!!
Way to go Dream (and I still miss Little and Mann)!!!!!

Go Dream!!!!! It was awesome!!!!! Does anyone else feel as I feel?? Sometimes it seems that Lennox and Latta "try" to be more than "stars". I wish that they would just play good ball and not try to go through brick walls!! They are both good players!!! I'm happy, though, that we got our first win!!!!! Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we weren't losing games because betty and ivory were trying to be stars...... we were losing games because we played poor defense and had no presence under the basket..... bales did a lot to rectify one of those problems..... we weren't drove on with impunity.... and teams weren't consistintaly getting three putups on us..... and we finally got some defensive stops underneath....

We finally are getting some balance. NORTH CAROLINA MEET DUKE! YES!!!!!!!!!  ;D ;D Latta and Lennox were trying to make up for the lack of balance and I'll never fault them for scoring in double digits. If others had stepped up and done the same, we would have won a game or two prior to last night. |
