Message: [QUOTE="JoePgh, post: 4163707, member: 1131"] Like everyone else, I was very impressed by Piath's game today, particularly the basket she scored by beating everyone up the floor. But, not to be overlooked, is the fact that her defense was as bad as her offense was good. Watching the game live, I saw her give up a Xavier basket by losing her man immediately before each of her first two layups. So the layups had the aspect of making up for a defensive lapse, and I suspect that is how Geno saw them. She won't get prime-time minutes until she fixes that problem, regardless of her scoring. Amari consistently makes dreadful decisions under pressure -- a big problem now. I suspect that this will improve as she gets more minutes, but her minutes will have to be limited to garbage time until she stops playing like that. It's a familiar dilemma for the coach. [/QUOTE]
