Message: [QUOTE="ABCDFE, post: 3412062, member: 9410"] My thoughts: [LIST] [*]I see a team that is battling hard and fights through adversity. This bodes well as the more experience they get facing all different styles of play they can be confident to keep at it and not go away from the game plan [*]I thought defense and offense was very good today from starting five and from the bench. ONO still baffles me sometimes with how she can’t finish at the rim, but in the fourth quarter I still see her grabbing rebounds and effecting shots. She needs to be a bit more sound defensively against tougher teams because she will be in foul trouble. My hope is that she can be built back up in time for March because she is so important for us if we want to contend for a championship [*]CW played lights out, all aspects [*]Megan is playing solid and even tho I think her offense is in a little rut she is doing all the other things like rebounding and defense on bigger players. I just feel like we don’t need to worry about Meg going invisible on us [*]CD was playing great defense as usual and her offense was not needed tonight [*]Kyla played ok. She became more aggressive offensively on a few occasions and I’m happy to see that. [*]Anna - wow 80% from three. Good defense good rebounder solid ball handling and looks so comfortable on the court. It almost seems like she’s an upper classman. She’s in a good place and her play is so important for us because when’s she’s in the game she stretches the defense, adds another 3 point shooter for us and on defense she defends well and rebounds well for a guard. Lastly her teammates especially CD trusts her to handle bringing the ball up court against the trap, something that I think Kyla would be at a disadvantage. That means another dribbler and passer to push through the press and let CW and MW to go up court and finish with easy layups. Man AM means so much to our team in what she can do [*]AG - loving her confidence. Her offense moves are still raw but man her explosiveness is off the charts. There was one pay where she exploded to the basket and although she missed the layup my mouth was wide open with her explosion and leaping ability (playing above the rim). And then her defense, oh my. I just can’t believe how talented she is defensively. I don’t think the players she guarded scored more than a bucket or two all game. That one block was lebronesque. Beautiful athlete. [*]I haven’t been the biggest Molly fan but I am just loving the way she’s playing and even tho she doesn’t fill up the stat sheet. The eye test is there for me. She looks comfortable and her defense has made tremendous strides from her first three years. So proud of her and glad she got some good minutes tonight [*]Lastly is EA, she looks so much better out there. Very solid and I’m just so pleased that Geno let her only so much. You can see she’s happier and she’s now able to contribute against some of these teams we’re playing. Even though she may not get into the game against the top teams, just her ability to spell Liv or Aubrey will be huge as the wear and tear of the season occurs [*]Lastly Geno and Staff has done an incredible job with this team. At the beginning of the year they were not a good team. And Andy Landers mentioned how much Ucinn has improved. I’m one to be so impressed that this team with all our shortcomings in size and elite length and athleticism has become this good on defense. And slowly I see Geno implementing things on offense that is helping every player get comfortable in knowing their role. Kudos. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
