yeah I noticed that she looks for contact when she has a breakaway or is driving to the basket... expecting a foul from some contact that she helps create

That's smart, right?

I would say that was very smart. I would add that any fan would want our players to be all in.

I agree with Geno that we have some tough kids on this team who can look in the mirror every day and feel proud that they go all out for this team and make the right decisions on how to deal with tough situations.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, DC. I thought you were referring to intentionally inviting contact so she can create the 3-point play. For example by slowing down a little or maneuvering closer to the defender.

And I think she like other good players does that sometimes. Only problem with it is like the problem with attempting a dunk. You better be damn sure that in fancying it up you don't end up blowing what would've been an easy basket.

But now it seems maybe you're referring to "hearing footsteps," i.e. being too conscious of where the defender is so as to lose concentration.
