Message: [QUOTE="HuskylnSC, post: 3804017, member: 7953"] Man O man. After reading these posts, I was hesitant to say anything for fear of starting a firestorm of indignation. But then I realized it's pretty cold here in SC so a little fire would be beneficial: 1 - We proved once again that a quick water bug of a guard gives us real trouble. Geno had to try his best on ball defender on her and Aubrey spent many trips up court running along beside her to try and cut her off. It's a good thing dribbling slows people down. 2 - Ono had trouble with players her size. I was very happy when she realized she could dominate smaller posts. This girl is no where near the athlete Ono is and gave her fits for a while. Also, I did not see one run out for her. 3 - Aubrey stood out in this helter skelter rag tag game. Her athleticism and quick hands serve her well in these situations. However she is no where ready to play a significant role in the half court offense. She still doesn't know how to run the plays. On her cuts through the paint she will stop and stand instead of run through thereby clogging the middle for the next cutter. Other players have to tell her where to go and when to go. Also she doesn't look for the ball as she runs down court but runs to a spot. She almost blocked the pass from Paige to Aaliyah on an Aaliyah basket because with her back to the ball, she had no idea the pass was coming. 4 - Paige has to change her game this year and become the shooter. She is the most proficient 3 point shooter and her skill must by used to open the lane for the slashers. 5 - Glad to see E take charge for a short spell. Sad to see it was only for a short spell. I am beginning to wonder of she may be a bit gun shy about sticking her head out of a foxhole for more than a bit. She did get in a heck of allot of trouble before. 6 - The offense always runs better with Anna than anyone else at the 4. Even if she is not hitting her 3's the other players can trust her to be in the right spot and to make the right pass. Not the quickest of foot she is strong enough to physically dominate defensive position underneath. If today takes the lid off the rim for her then there is nothing but good news. 7 - So sad to see Christyn depressed on the bench. I am sure that will compound Geno's dissatisfaction with her performance today. She is expected to lead at all times. 8 - Glad to see Aaliyah get to experience starting a game. Early Jitters were obvious. I hope we don't have to start her again this year. 9 - It's been a while since I've seen Geno this up set in a 30 point win. Justified though. He may be wondering who he can count on down the road. Well, that's probably enough tinder to get a fire started with some of my good friends on the board. Remember I'm just a poor redneck boy in South Carolina and my opinions reflect that. So go easy on me. [/QUOTE]
