Message: [QUOTE="SimpleDawg, post: 3317521, member: 9267"] So I finally watched it. This is my impression.... [B]Rickea[/B] was definitely off. But like everyone says, it's definitely not going to be a regular thing. Score would've looked more like Baylor's win over Lubbock Christian if Rickea just had a "good" game. [B]Danberry[/B] is definitely not one of the hardest players on our team to work around and go one-on-one with. She's good with the ball, and can force turnovers. But as for being a nose-to-nose defender... nah. It looked like they were taking her easily into the lane at times. I think Wiggins' defense was better in this game at least. She was absolutely in the face of LC in the 2nd half. Still, for Jordan's offense which can go 20-24 points per night sometimes, she's essential. [B]Wiggins[/B] really impressed me. She missed her shots, but her athleticism and fluidity was the turning point in the game. She was really frustrating Lubbock meeting them before halfcourt for most of the duration of the 2nd half. [B]Myah[/B].... pretty good. Played the press well, and seemed to do some of the things that orchestrated our turnaround in the 3rd quarter. Looked like she was quick to her spot and played with Wiggins really well doing some of the same things together. Though based on this game, it did look like Matharu is right behind her and if needed can be our point guard. [B]Matharu[/B]... yeah enough said. I can see why she's a top 30 player. Her athleticism and her hands are as good as Danberry's. She can also score from an off position, that's what I saw with her two layups that were made under contact. [B]Dra Hunter[/B].... shooting those 3s as always, but I also think she made a few non-shooting plays and went in for some contested balls today and got on the winning side of those. [B]Jessika Carter.[/B]... hope she can keep this up. Hope she doesn't go back to 6 points per night next game. We'll win the SEC if Carter maintains half of what she showed tonight. [B]Bibby[/B]... awesome. Made blocks under the threat of opposing offense and didn't look like she was beat even once tonight. I know it's Lubbock Christian and she's simply bigger and stronger than those players that attempted to go at her, but I think she did everything well tonight. 6 for 9 three point shooting by our splash sisters. Everyone else was 1 for 11. Hemingway, Promise, Young, and Morris.... hmmmm. They didn't do much, but I'm sure they'll have their good games. Combined 0 for 11 from the field. But....good thing with our depth is that we can afford half of players not be so good in some of their games and still win. I will say based on the [B]Stanford vs USA[/B] game, Stanford is a better team than us right now. The standouts in that game to me were Carrington, Williams, and the Hull twins. Like us, they have great depth and next game they could have new MVPs. Greatly anticipating that game...almost can't wait. Expecting a 93-85 type barn burner with 3-point shots flying. So we definitely need to get our 3-point shot going apart from just Bibby and Dra. ... [/QUOTE]
