Nika could be a gnat on offense too. I think of those moments when she’d grab a defensive rebound and just gallop down the floor, determined to get the offense going before the defense could set up. She didn’t need a steal to start the break. This is how she thought about rebounds and would do this a few times every game.
You know who else does this? I loved those moments when KK improbably came up with a defensive rebound among the tall trees and just galloped down the floor…. She didn't always know how to finish these impromptu fast breaks this season, but I’m sure they had the effect of intimidating opponents. If a missed shot can result in a break, shots become more tentative.
Next season, I expect Geno will want to see more of these rebound breaks from KK. If all goes well Morgan will get in on the act too. This was one of her things in high school. When the team is clicking, I expect we’ll see this a lot.
