Been watching some tapes since we got home. Looks to me like:
CHONG is playing with a surprising "crispness," for lack of a better term. Since her first couple of games, which were quite productive, as a frosh, she has seemed so mincing and tentative (and I attribute that to the interaction of her personality and Geno's coaching style). Now, the way she moves, the way she passes, the way she directs the half-court sets, the way she shoots, and the way she drives all seem to me to have a nifty crispness. Anyone see something like that? (Am glad to give the coaches a lot of credit for the resurgence; in fact, it's not only a resurgence from her high school performance, it's a substantial expansion and improvement overall and I hope it will be sustained. Enjoyable to watch)
STEWART: parallel to the CRISP play of Chong, I see incredible ENERGY from Stewart. That young woman is all over the place on these tapes; going for loose balls, going for rebounds, flying around the court to attempt or deliver a block . Have never seen her play with such constant intensity. Yes? No? Observations?
