Shot of the Game

I watched the game on HoopStreams; didn't see a replay.
If there was a shot of the game award I'd have togive it to KML.
At some point in the second half she was at the top of the key with two defenders in her face when a team mate passed her the ball and she immediately tossed it up for a 3 pointer. But the way she did it seemed astounding to me. She didn't even really collect the ball before it was on it's way to the hoop. Total instinct, no regard for the defense, like the ball was a hot potato or something. I was amazed.
Did anyone else notice this?

And what amazes me is her form and her stroke...Her jump shot is a thing of beauty.

I didn't see it, Sonny, but KML has great fundamentals, including a very quick release. We may be seeing more of that from KML. I'd like about 6 or 7 of them on Monday.

Yes, I did.

It was an amazingly quick release -- with no re-setting of her feet or her posture. I have replayed it a number of times, and it is more amazing every time I look at it. The first time I saw it live I thought she had just redirected the pass into the post. Then I saw the arc on the ball; and said : "Yikes, that is something really special.
