Message: [QUOTE="jazz, post: 3816482, member: 10942"] Just finished watching the reply. My 2 cents on Guard play: Poor competition but some things still translate against better competition. Some things will not. We need a game against top competition! PB – I originally thought it was a quiet game but yet a very good floor game. yeah right—13 pts, 8 assists, 5rbs and 4 steals and it seems like a quiet game?? Any other player, I would be exuberant with praise. That is the price of high expectations. Showed some really nice perimeter defense and moved her feet very well. The quality of Butler doesn’t matter, they still have quick guards and PB had no problem staying in front of them. Big improvement. We will need this down the road against guards who are not only quick but can hit the shots as well. Terrific passes to CW to get open threes. This is what a good point guard can do for you – help get others open shots. CW – stayed with it after missing shots early. Was Geno trying to get her confidence back by letting her shot the Tech FT instead of PB? Hit some threes later on with NO hesitation. She needs to just play and not over think it! I still don’t think she is a very good perimeter defender and this worries me against top teams. Gets to the hoop…needs to finish better and/or draw the foul. Good game. EW - putting together consistent all around performances each and every game. Movement looks better and better. Defense is better and I’m talking about movement not the block. Has some nasty to her which I think GA likes. I am starting to get the feeling that she can consistently give us a 12pts a game or even more if she catches fire. Getting better and better. Having PB helps and PB having EW helps too. I don’t think she has a left hand to finish at the hoop. Excellent crossover penetration with skip pass for open three from PB. That is very encouraging! I’m really noticing her more and more. Can she continue against top competition? NM – hip hip hooray!!! Three pointer is good from NM. Now some of you will tell me she has only hit one! Well, you got to hit one first in order to hit two and so on. Congrats to NM!! She does need to work on her layups!! She is over-thinking it – too rushed and putting it too high on the glass worried about the block. Drew a charge call that was not called but instead called on her…player clearly pushed off. Got beaten badly once when she stopped moving her feet. Was she crying on the side lines? Great pass to AG on the break. Nice response after getting her A** chewed by GA. [/QUOTE]
