Message: [QUOTE="BBallF, post: 4338572, member: 10435"] Strong basketball observations. The problem on the drives or breaks was that she couldn't finish. She got lost in the lane and frequently walked. She just needs to learn moves and then do them over and over again so it is muscle memory. She should either go to the basket strong or pull up on these breaks. If she improves just 20% overall on offense we have a different offensive look as a team. She can always drive and then dish if she is a threat, which she needs to be, but turnovers on a break are a killer. She is a very determined kid; you don't play defense like that naturally, no one does, it is will, preparation, and exertion. We found out in The Last Dance what a student her idol Dennis Rodman was of the game and his next opponent. Remember Bill Russell saying that he got most of his rebounds before the shot was even taken? She is a serious student like both of them. I think she will surprise us all this year on offense and get even better on defense because she will be stronger, smarter and maybe even less tolerant of the referees' continued lapses in judgment about her fouls. Okay, maybe not the last thing..... [/QUOTE]
