Message: [QUOTE="Papa33, post: 2611549, member: 682"] I'd say that Crystal has proven herself able— even as just a sophomore— to handle the myriad responsibilities Geno places on the shoulders of his often most diminutive players, i.e., the point guards. Adding the 3-pointer to her scoring repetoire this season, thereby forcing defenders to come out to the arc, makes more space for cutters and her passes to them. Looking (not [I]too[/I] far) ahead, I'd encourage her to penetrate more often into defensive interiors. She has already been quite successful with the 12-15 foot pull-up and the 6 foot floater. Both of those threats will open up still more passing lanes for her and occupy defenders around the foul-line area. I have no doubt she will consistently find those opportunities next year and judge just when to take advantage. I do like her style! [/QUOTE]
