Message: [QUOTE="willtalk, post: 3220484, member: 1220"] The reason for that excess dribbling is that they want to run the time off the clock to get the last shot. That is why she dribbles and everyone stands around. Don't believe that if a teammate was open for a shot while she was dribbling that she would not see it and get them the ball. Chelsea normally is a very team-oriented player. Her best asset is actually her court vision and passing. I saw her play often when she was in high school. She averaged about 14 pts a game on a team that averaged around 90 a game. She probably could have averaged close to thirty in that she was unstoppable. She usually only shot when they needed a basket or at the close of quarters and halves. You have to put those plays into context. She has always been a pass-first PG. She is the reason I never cared for high scoring Points. I would agree with you about not over dribbling, however, she only does that when circumstances dictate it. LA sets up those plays for her to take the last shot because she can usually get it off successfully. [/QUOTE]
