willtalk, what happened to Pivec, is just what you pointed out, when OSU played against much quicker teams, Pivec's performance at the point guard position, was exposed.  Pivec is not a point guard.  Situations dictate which 5 players to put on the floor.  Examining the Beavers players, Pivec will always be one of those 5 players.  And I cannot disagree more re: Pivec's defensive ability.  Pivec does move her feet and is both a solid "on ball defender", and plays solid "team" defense.  Beavers just don't know how to defend the pick and roll.  That is OSU's team defensive weakness.  willtalk, we are going to have to agree to disagree re: Pivec.  Rueck depends on Pivec so much that he has unfortunately put her in situations where her weaknesses have been exposed this year.  As I said in a previous post, this may help Pivec in the long run, but it has impacted her play (slump) this year.  Pivec will continue to improve, and mock my words, she will be an All PAC12 1st team player before she graduates.
