Message: [QUOTE="BBallF, post: 4123739, member: 10435"] I just got home from the game. I have several comments none of which are new to the BY but they just became more acutely noticeable tonight: 1) Paige is truly great. When you see her in a smaller venue like Walsh you see her incredibly high basketball IQ on full display. Her anticipation on defense is extraordinary. 2) CW does not touch the ball enough in the right places in the offense. She is a serious offensive threat everytime she touches the ball in the right position. Touching it 30 feet away on the top weave doesn't accomplish that. There are no clear outs on the offense as it plays out, Geno is right about the lack of flow. After the first three guards touch the ball and it goes to a big, the offense seems to break down. 3) AE walked whenever she tries to drive. She shuffles both her feet at the same time. She does not make good decisions with the ball either. Honestly, I liked her better as 6th man. 4) We definitely need Azzi and Aubrey. Mir is a terrific timed leaper and so is Aubrey and we need that and Aubrey's floor game and defense too. 5) This team is still forming. Odd to say that considering all the starters and the 6th man from last year are back. The most effective offense of the night was to begin the second half when Geno pounded it underneath. Then we stopped. No real cohesiveness. 6) Caroline was overwhelmed out there. She was 6th man but was not up to the task. She is constantly looking at the bench to see if she's coming out. Cannot play like that. 7) Nika played tough on defense but used her hands too much and got into foul trouble. I watched her carefully shoot 3s before the game. I got there 30 minutes early. She didn't miss. Same with Evina. You saw what happened. If Nika gets in the lane she turns and goes back. The one time she was under she couldn't finish. [/QUOTE]
