Message: [QUOTE="JoePgh, post: 4080374, member: 1131"] There is some merit in the first three sentences of your second paragraph, but your first paragraph is [B]completely[/B] off the mark. Have you compared her present physique to her physique in her freshman year? She has filled out by now to the point that upper body strength is not an issue. She proved that by grabbing rebounds in the NCAA tournament last year against Nalyssa Smith, Queen Egbo, Kamila Cardoso, and the Iowa bigs. It seems that you, like many BY'ers, formed an impression of her in her freshman year and have failed to see the difference that she has made in that area since then. For that reason, the last sentence of your post is also wholly inaccurate. I agree that she has trouble with double-teams from smaller players, and I don't think she has developed her post moves as much as she should have in three years. Her midrange shot is also lacking the needed accuracy. But physical strength is no longer an issue, and her BY critics should recognize that. [/QUOTE]
