Lazy on defense. Liability when handling the ball and passing. Can only shoot the three.

I don't know about a nothing burger. I hope she can handle her emotions better.

She was just pissed she played like shite the whole game and in the heat of the moment. If you’ve ever been in competitive sports you would understand

She has hit big game winning shots against multiple ranked opponents.

She is far from not showing up in big games.

She does struggle with USC.

LSU is so much more talented than all these other rank teams it’s not a big deal for her. There is only 4 teams that can match LSU in talent in the whole country. The margins are thin against these opponents and you need your best players playing their best

Wild that they won it all with Angel Reese on their roster but yet this team has even more drama.

Agreed. A nothing burger. He was shoving her out on the court and she pushed back blindly behind her back. Likely thought it was a teammate shoving her.

That said, she needs to stop disappearing in big games, but the same is true for Flau’jae.

She and Flujae showed no leadership today!


I don't understand blaming or calling Williams a choker and loser. I've only seen parts of the game, but the play by play shows that Williams scored 8 out of the last 10 points and didn't miss a shot nor commit a turnover in the 4th. Meanwhile Joyner committed 4 turnovers and Fulweilley committed 2 turnovers in the 4th quarter.

To your point Joyner looked not ready for the big stage at the end of the 4th. The problem is MK and Flaujae disappear for the majority of the game against South Carolina. Granted I’m only talking about South Carolina. Everything else they are super stars. Uhhh I guess minus UCLA in the elite 8 last year

Frustrated that she didn't choose South Carolina?

Did anybody ask Mulkey in the post game about that?

Not sure but I'm sure it will be handled internally.

Issue is she did not show up in either game vs. the Lady Cocks. I did not see as much of this game as the first but in the first we kept running stuff through her in crunch time and she did not convert very many.

Problem is Mulkeys likes a very soft schedule and all game were cupcakes for first couple months. Problem is players were never tested and have no idea how to react under pressure.

I’ve just been told she has a massive ego for her production. Wouldn’t mind her hitting the road and we use her loot to buy the two State freshmen

I mean, yesterday wasn't her best, but she still had 14 points and 7 rebounds (2nd on the team). She has had double figures in 9 of her last 10 games and she only played 16 minutes in the one game she didn't get double figures in. Since that game, the last five games she has averaged 19 points and 10 rebounds per game with 3 double doubles.

I think she could do better at times too, but she was just named First-team SEC for the 2nd straight season after being the SEC Freshman of the Year in 2023. That's pretty strong production. And she was the offensive and defensive player of the game in LSU's biggest win this year against Texas when Texas was undefeated.
