[@TheBaseballking23]

Carson really had the game of her life when she needed it most.

[@cperry7267ANBFPro]

Carson set the tone for LSU in the first half. She was unconscious. Without her shooting, giving LSU a comfortable cushion going into the second half, the game result may have been different. Actually, I think that Carson or Morris should have been MVP, and not Reese. Reese is a power on the boards and "put backs" but she is really like Draymond Green of the Warriors which means she is a good player, but it is the other players who provide offensive fire power. Also, I am a neutral fan but Mulkey can really coach even though a lot of people were trying to stain her reputation regarding the Brittany Griner situation. I think that she has successfully blunted that criticism.

[@assouankoffi9456]

Yes she played very well. Some players shine in the playoffs and in the final. Jasmine Carson is one of them.

[@ZONEPRESSLLC]

Yes LSU had some players that played out of their minds today especially from 3. The refs also were massively inconsistent which made the flow of the game weird. The last 5 minutes in the first half with both all-Americans on the bench with foul trouble isn’t what the game deserves.

This team just came together this year and won the natty that's crazy they deserved to win

[@thatguybill34]

9 new players 👀

Carson is a beast

[@jankyboy10]

This game had more views than ALL nba games this year. salute to these ladies and congrats to LSU

[@sheena..j]

They played as a team, didn’t depend on their leading scorer’s. Great game

[@amarshell-bey7842]

Clark just needs a team where she doesn’t have to drop 30 a game and still lose

[@artdogg50]

She'd really been willing them to a lot of those wins. They have a lot of determination but even Clark admitted that they weren't the most talented or athletic team around. It kind of reminds me ironically of when Steph Curry literally willed Davidson to the Final Four years ago. A player she's often kind of compared to.

[@tulsamade5823]

Exactly if she gets a TEAM that can perform like she dose then we can talk but she’s definitely HER for getting her team there by herself basically 💯💯💯

[@justinlawrence4658]

Yeah they knew they couldn’t afford to take her out the game…foul trouble kinda messed her up.

[@zanmolecules4105]

That’s why I was so happy to see her lose, LSU plays like a team

[@leeverse9741]

She was gonna lose this one regardless lol

[@4Bang9Gang]

Ayo them ladies was hoopin! Both teams deserve a standing ovation. Respect!

That part !!!

[@GrumpyCat-mw5xl]

Yeah and when you think about it curry Influence is a certain skill set not necessarily based on physicality like running and jumping and strength So women are able to adopt also master that same curry skill set and use it in their game.

@@GrumpyCat-mw5xl saying Steph got a woman type physique 😹

[@GrumpyCat-mw5xl]

@@2kdemiks816 haha no not saying that steph has a girly frame I’m saying Steph skill set is more easily adopted by women. If Steph skill set was say dunking or above the rim the women due to their biological constraints wouldn’t be able to adopt it.

[@str8htflexxin683]

Women's basketball has taken a giant leap right before our eyes!!!!! These ladies are extremely talented! I really really enjoyed watching this game. The shooting, passing, overall mechanics was phenomenal !!!! Great job both teams and congratulations LSU!!!!!!!!

❤❤❤

[@wopkato]

real deal nba mechanics 😂🔥

[@BB-ed4om]

Yeah chucking threes at a ferocious pace and playing no defense. A well coached defensive team would dismantle both.

[@jnbp9312]

Amazing game, shots were one for the ages, on both sides.

I feel like we just watched miss Jasmine Carson, have the best day of her life 😊 A treat to see!

[@LMEJ3]

Best women’s National Championship game I’ve ever seen. This game was so entertaining!

[@ronspears-tm8js]

5 for 5 from the three-point line is enough to deflate almost any team.

Iowa main flaw was literally banking on one player, LSU had a team. There’s the difference, GOOD JOB LSU💛💜

[@SYD_89]

Everybody was so focused on Caitlin Clark that they never gave LSU a chance. So happy for these young ladies as most of the country was against them. The Sports networks (ESPN) were so quiet during this game. All they focused on was the milestones CC achieved and not one word about how LSU came to play! Full disclosure!!! I had SC taking it all!

[@donnettacrockett9823]

Yes I agree

[@_truthBtold]

Because women's basketball has NEVER seen a Caitlin Clark before ever! We've seen good women's teams before. She was Steph Curry with a ponytail, so you have to understand why. I mean the better team won, but the best player is always the focal point. Nobody in women's NCAA basketball is generational except for her, that's why....

[@taydestiny38]

Yeah…..you can tell the announcers and the network wanted Iowa to win, but LSU had other plans. SC could have been here, but their guard was the only one who showed up to play in their loss to Iowa. Happy for the LSU coach and enjoyed a competitive tournament overall!

[@dannysmith4447]

The game was decided before the toss up...all black team... against an all white team...3 black refs....what America just saw is whom the real racist are!!!

[@Idonthaveahandke]

You can't let a bench player come in and drop 21 in the first half. Also, LSU has a deeper team, but the officiating was atrocious

[@LGeezus_]

Refs were bad but they were calling ticky fouls on both teams fairly enough.

[@CalSimpson]

@@LGeezus_ No they weren't. lol. I think the first 7 or 8 fouls were against Iowa. It was totally ridiculous. Allowed LSU to get a huge lead and then they tried to hide it by giving LSU some fouls later when they were up big. We need more AI officiating like tennis has gone to. Can't trust nobody.

[@actionpotential23]

Or the white girls just lost. Accept it. LSU was the better team.

[@Samkhatha]

Stop with the whining on the ref.

[@LGeezus_]

@@CalSimpson Angel Reece and flaujae and Moore all had fouls in the 1Q totaling 5 vs Iowa’s 7. Stop the excuses

[@superyt4ever]

I was rooting for Iowa, but I must tip my hat to LSU for how their supporting cast to Angel Reese stepped up hugely, especially that bench player who matched Clark's 3 pointers. Unfortunately for Iowa, their supporting cast to Caitlin Clark couldn't step up to contribute. Clark can only carry the team so much, especially after the physically and mentally draining game against South Carolina. Iowa's Achilles heel of depending on her too much to score was exposed today.
