Message: [QUOTE="Longtime fan, post: 3393457, member: 7093"] Kyla is Kyla. If she were a more high level athlete and basketball player, she could have driven to the hoop on Cox, who was clearly still hobbling and not fully recovered from her surgery. The lane to the basket was clear. But Kyla ( and others ) often misses open lay-ups, and she doesn't have the moves or speed to execute this idea. It is a limitation of the players we have. A person like Aubrey could do that in a flash, but she can't ( presently) do the larger job that Kyla is doing....distributing the ball, getting people in the right places and creating movement. Aubrey is still a freshman and very much learning what to do and where to be. The fact is; we had three quality players on the court who, due to the lack of contribution from everyone else, resorted to a type of freelancing...or so it appeared to me. And that didn't work; they couldn't convert three point shots, and there was chaos when they tried to drive to the hoop, due to Baylor's size and athleticism. As many have said; Baylor is bigger, deeper, faster and better. They have some great athletes everywhere. We did well to hang close for three periods, but we had no one who was reliable all game. Danger was way off on her shooting, Megan was cold, then hot, and Williams was hot then cold. No one else was useful. Olivia requires a separate discussion. [/QUOTE]
