KML- 36 minutes- I think she answered anyone's qsts/doubters!!!

[Geno-ista]

Didn't Geno say she had a fantastic game

I think he did- but can't remember where I heard it or read it.

Very good points. You take what the defense gives you and they gave very little to KML and Stewie which allowed Nurse and Tuck to go off. Still looking at the stats KML and Stewie had very good games. You know that IF thread. Well the next time if there is a next time ND and UConn meet, well I think Geno puts a taller guard on Lloyd and UConn doesn't make 24 turnovers.

Hey this is a complete team. Geno is working on them getting things done quicker thus the reason for the TOs. I expect Saniya Gabby and Stokes to get more confidence as the season rolls on. This is the best team in WCBB and their aint nobody close right now.

Well now we get to watch our taped games for the next week and a half until we play DePaul UCLA St Johns and Duke. We also have 2 games home and away with SMU and some pretty good recruits checkin us out. An early verbal from 2 Texans or an Illini would be a great way to start off 2015.

To your point TonyC- of a taller guard on Lloyd- and/or those types of opponents-- I think Gabby, even though she is playing down low for the most part, could easily become that specialist for a while, off the bench to primarily defend. She doesn't look overwhelmed by the big moments out there- that I have seen. She can really become a match up nightmare for the opposition on offense also.

From one who instigated the last round of discussion
I was totally blown away by her efforts on both sides of the ball
You'll never hear another peep from me on this subject

I love your post. Makes my day and brings back the faith I have that Boneyarder's support their women through thick and thin!

 

[Hongster]

really? an acknowledged top shooter from long and you want her to completely change her game? Add to her skills, yes, but she is money from beyond the arc when she can get free, and sometimes this depends upon someone setting screens for her. Additionally, she is a target for the opponents defenses, just as Stewey is. These teams think that all they have to do is disrupt KML and Stewey and they will be set.

Boy, were they wrong, as I believe is your statement above.

Yah! You'll see.
I want to see Tuck as a warrior in the paint not a jump shooter because she can't.

Uh...Hongs; were you watching really, really close yesteday?

OK, Michael, I am archiving this post, just in case!

That is so funny - I sent a private Mes saying virtually the same thing.

Please don't tell me that we're starting to think a lot alike? That really scares me!

 

[01Neaggrad02]

12 pts, 5 of 9 shooting, 6 Rebs, 2 steals, 2 assists- and she should have had 3-4 more assists! Passed the ball like Magic Johnson. And she looked like Hartley controlling the game many times during our half court offense. She was running the floor on defense as well as offense. I know she wasn't the story today, but she was superb as I have watched 2 more times. I hope we can close some of the "stuff" on the prior threads in the recent past. Because of her offensive capabilities, she like Stewie, help everyone on the floor just by being out there. Just sayin! Goin to bed- I'll shut up!!! Go Huskies!

Well you know if she were in shape she would have played 37 minutes Just kidding. I love KML and she was amazing.

 

[pvdoggy]

I think KML is the best passer on this team. She played a great great game.

Don't worry, I can perform exorcisms.

Oh know- - pls don't start falling into the Icebear "web"! IB is too sharp, witty & sarcastic for you. He reels you in slowly and then Bam!!! Your fragile ego I fear won't be able to recover! And Meyers whatever and David in Naples are even worse !
No offense guys- just trying to protect one of my season ticket friends that is new to the board! Have a great day!

Another accurate assessment !!! And I think she has the best, and/ or softest hands on the team Stewie's are pretty good too!

Thanks for the warning my friend. I was starting to feel that way. Some dogs you have to be more careful with than others!

Pff! Dogs!

This year in 7 games Morgan is shooting 4-18 from 3 for 22.2%
Last year in 8 games Morgan shot 7-17 from 3 for 42.9% from 3 (2nd best on the team).

How do you support your assertion?

I think KML is the best passer on this team. She played a great great game.

Surprisingly, I think Kia is the best passer on the team for mechanics. She may miss an open opportunity or mis-judge how fast an opponent can get into the passing lane, but I've yet to see her send a soft pass, attempt a sideline-to-sideline pass or pass into traffic like most freshmen (and some of their elders). I'm really psyched for when her understanding of the offense and her teammates matures.

The number speaks itself, and her form and technique that is not a sharp shooter like.

AND, for the hundredth time, Maria Conlon once went 0 for 31 on 3s. Fortunately she did not let that discourage her. And Diana notoriously went 1 for 15 in the NC semifinal her frosh year. (Don't know how many of them were 3s.) She also kept shooting.

Interesting; what do you find lacking in her form? Specifically?

I can't judge her form, but Tuck must have some pretty strong arms and soft hand. Her shots, even from 3pt range, seem like they come off her hand so easily, without much effort. A lot of other wbb players look like they are pushing with much more effort to get the ball to the basket.

Lack of motion in her legs, almost flat footed.

Kia is good but no way even near KML in basketball IQ.

She won the McDonalds AA 3 pt shooting contest. I am not sure it did not include the guys also. As her confidence continues to increase, and she relaxes even more, she will begin to drain a lot of threes and 15-18 ft shots. Nothing she can't do, and we are finally seeing a healthy Morgan!

I concur w Honk on this one- KML has a natural BB mentality like Kelly Farris. Nurse has great gifts, explosive burst, no fear, heart, but I'm not sure it's quite KML's. As usual, I could be wrong.
