Message: [QUOTE="willtalk, post: 2776722, member: 1220"] In respect to Parker- Her problem is that she believes she is better than she really is. The Sparks have been hurt this year when she attempts to control the ball on offense. Her two man game with Parker and others works when she is stationary because her length from the outside lets her see over and make passes to cutting players. He passing to stationary players are not as good and sometimes really bad because she attempt to put them into tighter or none existent windows. Her turnovers in the last two games where passes that where usually short or completely off the mark right to the opposition. Other then on fast breaks, when she attempts to garner assists off the dribble in the half court she has really sucked this season. I could understand why when Toliver was playing point that it was better for Parker to handle the ball more, but at present they have both Sims and Gray who are much better ball handlers. Gray also see's the court better and is a better passer. Both Gray and Sims are better off the dribble passers of drives in the half court. Parker should limit herself to passing from a stationary position and driving purely to set herself up for scores. She doesn't fight for rebound unless they are right too her. That has really hurt the team this year. The other teams have been getting lots of O boards. He defense is also sporatic. She is a highly skilled player who when she is on can help carry and offense. But when she is no is often a liability on the court. That has been the case quite a bit this season. [/QUOTE]
