Message: [QUOTE="Longtime fan, post: 3401862, member: 7093"] I think your love of the team is temporarily blinding you as to what you are seeing on the court. Christyn was, I think, 1-14 from the outside last night. The best sign of her brilliance is on her drives to the hoop. Her best shooting brilliance was last season against Notre Dame. She doesn't even show exceptional ball-handling skills which, for a guard who was the best player in HS two years ago, is shocking. She needs to find herself. find the player that was the best HS player in the country. Olivia is not even approaching stardom. She misses far too many baskets in the paint, can't secure contested rebounds, and shoots as though she is blindfolded. The other night she was 0-4 from the foul line. She has thrown up shots from 8-10 feet that hit nothing. Don't get me wrong; I love her as a husky. But she is not developing anywhere near fast enough to be a force at the big dance. Kyla is a "B" level player...always was. We all love her, but she is no threat and is only out there to set screens and achieve ball movement ( because all our other "fifth" starters don't know what they are doing). Kyla's role seems to have been pretty much negated recently by defenses, as they learned that she is not a reliable scorer, and does not have the foot speed or athleticism to drive around a defender to the hoop ( even when the lane is wide open). We all have to hope that CD and Geno can render some magic. But there is not a single player who is clearly improving at the moment. Not with game to game consistency. [/QUOTE]
