Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 3320959, member: 26"] Good numbers. Geno talked about it in the post game presser in the 2nd game - no point in running layup drills like they did in the first half - we know the defense can lead to offense, so he wanted to run half court stuff. Obviously it left much to be desired, but he did not seem frustrated - just that they had a lot of stuff to go over and that it would be a work in progress... He was very upbeat about both Aubrey and Anna. Did mention that sometimes they look great, and sometimes lost, but that even when they are confused, they try to do the things they are good at and simplify. Either he's mellowing out, or he realizes this team will respond better in general to positive reinforcement rather than biting criticism. I'm sure he reserves that for Christyn, Meg and Crystal. He also mentioned how hard it will be for Olivia - he was asked what will happen if she gets into foul trouble, and he said "likely we will lose". He said it's hard for her to go from a role player position to now being told she will have to play a lot of minutes, be relied on for lots of defense, and need to do it without fouling. [/QUOTE]
