Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 2585793, member: 26"] One thing I noticed in the few games I've seen Tenn play is that Russell is sort of passive - more of a finesse player. More than that, her passivity creates problems in that she does not "demand" the ball in the post. And in the somewhat rare situations where she does, the guards do not necessarily feed her there. Maybe that's usually what they do, but in the few games I've seen, she's not nearly as dominant as she should be... It's always been a problem at Tenn historically. Post players usually only score on O-boards and putbacks. The guards would rather dribble around and jack up an off balance shot rather than work to find the open teammage, especially one of the post players who has worked hard to establish position and is calling for the ball...
