Message: [QUOTE="FanHam, post: 2066566, member: 7690"] I like Kyla's game: her outside shot looks great (lately), she's sturdy enough to block out anyone in WCBB, she runs, she defends pretty well. I love the way she's becoming bolder on offense as the season progresses. Two things, though. One, she doesn't jump for rebounds. I think this is an affliction common to a lot of 6'+ freshmen. They got rebounds in high school mostly from their height and having good position. At the college level that's usually not enough, unless you're Brittney Griner or someone equally tall. If you reach up flatfooted, some 6'4", athletic front line opponent will jump right over you. Jump, girl! Two, like it probably seems to almost all freshmen, the college game happens at three or four times the pace of a high school game. Experience is the only solution to that problem. For some, they never seem to catch up. Kyle is becoming a mover and a shaker who sets the pace rather than reacting to the pace. Even a speed demon like Crystal Dangerfield has looked lost at times. So hang in there, girl! [/QUOTE]
